i just hit max karma on the survivor, and this thing popped up, what does this do?
Y’all question
For a first time player
Do you reccomend me to use downpour
or nah
I’ve been playing w/ downpour so far
watcher too
you can always disable it is you really want later, but I don’t see massive issue with it 
Yes it does
so I was wondering if it was still suitable for beginners
Changed doesn’t make it harder always
fair enough
my first playthrough (survivor) I had dlc enabled for half of it
then on the next slug I played (monk) I played with dlc on and I beat it just fine
some people criticize msc for a variety of reasons. mostly lore related tho which isn’t that important unless you really want to dig into it later
alright
also like god damn how fucked up is the ecosystem to the point where the rain is so heavy to the point where it can kill you 🥀
I also encountered this large bird looking thing
Like bro it started coming for me at like mach 3
I quickly ran into some pipes to escape it
It was also spewing some sort of gas from itself
I think
im not sure
h
2 i guess. (if youre playing the vanilla campaigns)
what are the uh
vanilla campaigns
monk survivor hunter
rn I’ve only played survivor and monk
survivor I made it to industrial complex
monk im still on outskirts
started a monk file cause I got a bit mad after dying in the most bs ways while playing survivor
ah alr
also does the watcher dlc change the vanilla campaigns
or nah
a little bit from what i heard
alr
run in one direction, turn around and press jump at the same time
you’ll have to play around with it, you have enough space to at gates during the animations
otherwise a flat surface is the best spot
ah alr
with downpour enabled somee dlc creatures will appear that aren’t in vanilla and coulddd make your life harder but from my experience playing monk w/ dlc on i didnt see them very often except for a few specific areas
late af but LOL
it shouldn’t effect you too much but it could make for a little bit more of a harder time so👍
alr
thanks for the info
also question
does each area only have like
one karma gate?
in outskirts I only found one
industrial complex same situation
There is at least two in every region
exploration is key 
You are likely to find more than two
ah alright
ig I was running in circles in outskirts then
also is there any better way to get karma than to:
run out > get food until max hunger (maybe a karma flower too, actually how do you even find karma flowers) > go back to/find a hibernation spot > hibernate > repeat
You can go to the same place you hibernated at before if you want
But yeah, eat and sleep over and over
if it helps, ||a lot of the time they are on the edges of the region||
yeah I usually do that if I find a karma gate
but otherwise I try to find new ones
ah alr
so either travel mainly left or right
right
considering there are multiple karma gates in each area, would you reccomend me to try and enter the max karma gate in industrial complex or try finding some other one
I found it on the other side of a broken bridge
ah alr
question how the hell do I escape after I get grabbed by a lizard
sometimes im able to wriggle myself out of its mouth
other times I can’t
How does it exactly work
If you have the wiggle to escape setting on you can very rarely
If your face has x’s for eyes ( x.x ) you are completely dead and never can get out of it
there are other ways you can escape too, but you should experiment 
ah alr
so im guessing that like
after a couple seconds of being bitten
you die
also is there any way to throw stuff downwards at an angle
the amount of times I could’ve thrown lizards off cliffs if we could do that
🥀
Only if they take you to their den, you will hear the death sound twice
or the x eyes
there's a lot more to discover in every region
i saw a red lizard
it started to like
chuck projectiles at me
what was that about
🥀
man idk if rain world's for me, its like hella hard and im only on industrial complex 🥀
👀
whar
it's alright if you struggle with the game at first. it's pretty much every player's experience. i'd recommend to slowly and gradually explore everything and study creatures instead of rushing to the next region right away because it usually leads to a lot of frustration. your experience and knowledge is very important progression-wise in this game and sometimes even more important than the number of regions you've visited
ah alright
should i try out monk
i heard it was easier
compared to survivor
yes, monk is easier
Good luck
in survivor??!i only saw my 1st red lizzy right before beating my first downpour campaign😭😭
it’s possible
rainworld is a hugee learning curve, once you get used to the gameplay you’ll be ok👍id recommend just following where the flower thing||overseer|| tells you to go
really?? i had no idea lmaoo😭i didnt even encounter one while playing ||arti until i went back to the starting area on an alt to see where the other path lead😭||
I can give an explanation elsewhere if you want
yeahh id appreciate that loll!
ah alr
i remember when i first started
i tried chucking rocks at it
can it die btw
the red lizard? yes it can
its just pretty hard to kill lol, its one of the most powerful lizards
Everything in the game can die if you try hard enough 
I mean
The yellow worm thing
the overseer
I remember chucking rocks at it when I first started lmao
OHHH lol no u cant kill them😭
yeah
im chill w/ it rn
it’s kinda useless tho it barely points to new areas
man
rainworld is kinda hard
any tips?
ive been trying to go everywhere in outskirts
but the only place i can find is
industrial complex
and i wanna try going somwhere else
i found this one pocket with this
aggressive grass looking stuff
it tried grabbing me
couldnt find any other way out so i left the area
i need help man i cant find any new directions
all the rooms i can go to are the ones ive already been to
Try exploring that area more
I tried but the only way to go from there was a straight vertical ascent
couldn’t find any way up
and didn’t wanna risk falling into the ominous grass
Are you sure?
What if you can fall there from somewhere?
wait that’s a good point
slight issue I have no clue how to get back there
eh whatever I’ll find a way
alr
question, there are some uh
blue rings in some areas of my map
what do they mean
Could you send a screenshot? I don't think i understand
I think you can in fp threads
I’m not on my pc rn, will send one when I get back on it tho
Wait nvm I found an older screenshot that I sent
I’m talking about these
Maybe it indicates some things
alr
also does monk change anything about the game aside from difficulty
I struggled a bit on survivor
so I decided to try out monk
I'd say changes aren't very significant
ah alr
also what happens if you kill the
yellow worm thingy
that follows you around
if you can even kill it
Find out
i dont wanna kill it
🥀
just wondering what happens if it gets killed

Why not explore that place more?
🤫
Your options are diverse and plenty 
Any place you haven't inspected fully is free game
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT
Creature
friend! 
aw hell nah bro i ran away the moment I saw it 💔
I saw it murk a green lizard
I ain’t going ANYWHERE near it
:(
also I found this scavenger toll thing
I gave them like 6 spears which were lying around
they weren’t doing anything so I assumed I was free to go
next thing you know I was getting shot down
also can spears pin mobs to walls
I remember throwing a spear at a green lizard
and then it got impaled on the wall
by the spear
it couldn’t move at all
Just make sure they pick up whatever you give them
ah alr
also btw what the fuck even is this
also this
Lizord
cause like this managed to happen
threw a spear close range, it got stuck to the wall, and it couldn’t move at all
Didn't you do that already?
yeah but like I wasn’t really sure if it was acting or if it was actually pinned to the wall
I’ve had too many lizards fake being dead on me so I didn’t wanna risk it
That answers your question I suppose 
Try experimenting with other creatures
am I a lizard war criminal atp
though I wouldn’t walk into any lizard that is still moving around
I’ve left multiple blue lizards on the verge of death
and crucified this one green lizard
also does this lizard do anything special
test it
I cant seem to find it anymore

wasn’t able to get a good look at it cause I panicked
if you ever bump into it again
If you die trying to learn what a lizard does that is a very valuable death
die 1000 times if you want to
alr
like im a bit scared of dying cause getting karma is a pain in the ass
also now some symbol that looks like an X inside of a circle is appearing in my map
wasn’t able to get to it before rain came
what does it mean
What regions have you been to so far?
Go to it and see 
industrial complex (on survivor) and outskirts (monk + survivor)
im trying out monk rn
tryna go somewhere else other than industrial
also forgot to mention
scavenger roll
although I left that place pretty quickly cause I got murked by scavs even though I paid like
6 spears
Scavengers will give signals as to their intentions and such too
keep an eye out for that
they did nothing 🥀
they just looked at me
and then chucked spears at me
ok question, so I went into this area called drainage system
saw a couple of lizards fighting near an underwater area
so I hid underwater for a big
then this random ass blue lizard crept up on me IN THE WATER
and killed me
where is the question?
a forgot to mention uh
what’s the lizards gimmick
I couldn’t notice anything about it
other than it being long
is it like tankier or smth
figure it out.
🥀
If we just told you every gimmick of a creature when asked it takes away a large chunk of the game
ok I think I got the gimmick of the lizards
they move at mach 7 in the water and mach 3 in pipes
on land they kinda slow tho
ok question why can’t the slugcat just run and eat at the same time
why does it always gotta stand still
🥀
slugcat wants fine dining
yes
water ended up everywhere but it was manageable
