I also hate that challenge
rng hell
AND a pixel perfect jump
can someone help me with this one
I have no idea how you're supposed to get points
lol i dont have that challenge but it looks fun
except for the "how do I get points" aspect
I have made an interesting discovery about red centipedes
they have to connect both ends of their body to electrocute me
does Expedition mode contain any spoilers?
i know it contains creature name spoilers
and there's some stuff that i'd consider to be in the gray area of spoilers/not spoilers
ironically i think the expedition instructions/overview thing MIGHT have some
but if you select survivor you’re not going to get saint spoilers or anything like that
so if I'm understanding this right:
there are general and name spoilers, and if you go to the specific character there may be campaign spoilers in the menu
I assume there's a character selection menu
there is a character selection menu but there’s also an expedition guide i believe
the expedition guide may contain spoilers
let me check if jt does
k
it's referred to as a manual and there are some minor-ish campaign spoilers in it
there's also unlockable perks which contain spoilers for slugcat gimmicks
I did hear a bit about the perks thing
like how you can have arti's jump and riv's speed on the same scug
is it only after unlock?
or is there a preview
you mainly want to avoid saint spoilers right 
no perks have saint spoilers
the manual has a singular very slight saint spoiler
if you want me to send the manual without the one saint spoiler then i can
sure
it's under the "gameplay changes" category so just don't check that one ig uess 
you hvae completed hunter also right
oh there are hunter spoilers
yeah I kinda forgot about hunter lol
again it's only in the gameplay changes section
yeah 
I actually am right now
turned off MSC though because I want vanilla experience first
Good idea
gameplay changes section (no spoilers ✨)
- expeditions start in a random shelter
- start with 2 karma; karma is capped at 5
- survivor passage completed by default
- passages are unusable unless a certain perk is enabled
- echoes will not spawn on the starting cycle
- collectable tokens will not appear
yknow
I get the feeling expedition might be a lot more fun
because I won't have to deal with the seemingly mandatory campaign requirement of "yeah you don't get one of your storage slots"
expedition is pretty fun
i just wish perks were handled a bit differently
it'd be a lot better if completing a quest gave you a temporary perk or something
though expedition is still fun regardless 
that does sound interesting from the little I've heard about it
seemingly with huge asterisk
my heart can’t take expedition stress too scary
f
"you will wake right back up again"
what.
that is by far the most impactful line this game has given me up to this point
got any theories?
maybe
trying to process right now
something to do with ascension or immortality maybe?
on a side note:
not really sure what to do now so I think I might just go ascend
nvm I just realized I can't
I don't have karma 10
and there is absolutely no way I'm getting that many echos in time
even if I somehow got the +5 cycles from pebs
thats what i thought on my hunter playthrough...
(turned out t o somehow not be the case)
the point: you can do it
i encourage you to keep going!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
you got this!!!!!!
in that case I suppose my best pathing would be GW-IC-CC-t h e w a l l-pebs-wall-SI-FA-SB
taking a break from Hunter and moving on to Saint
starting with ascension I see
well I found that the explo plants warm me up
oh I'm in skylands
I see
good to know
there are ice mechanics AND I get a whopping 2 karma
lanterns on poles warm me up as well as held
noted
and there just aren't any cycles
that is definitely going to mess me up in future campaigns/expedition
oh great I don't get passages
why did I just get an echo effect from the cycle starting
why does the orange lizard have horns
this lizor is all ears
so yeah I am supposed to get karma 10
that explains how
anyways found out what the echo effect was
it was me somehow spawning in skylands echo
nevermind it's fur
who needs CC when you can have Solitary Towers
uh
CC echo didn't have the karma req OR the cycle req
and all echos seem to have different dialogue
so I don't think I'm going to the wall
also I cannot eat batflies
very sad
:3
spiders are STILL as pathetic as ever
wha-
that's an odd looking white lizor
very cool though
WHY IS THERE A RED LIZARD IN CC
so I appear to die instantly to anything that bites me
(it wasn't the red lizard)
also Saint seems to deal with fall stun very poorly
sant 
for fun
there seem to be a lot more scav merchants
Icy Monument is what IC is called
scavs don't hate me for once :D
and what a surprise
I still have the map for it
Suburban Drifts = Outskirts
Glacial Wasteland = Garbage Wastes
my original plan was to go to FA but I forgot it's a 5 karma gate
I love getting jumpscared by a mechanical vulture in the first 3 rooms
how are you liking sint so far 
fun
and very interesting
since it introduces so many new mechanics
why is there an echo in shoreline
what?
they are giant jellyfish remains
saint became ourple
saint no like cold
(I lived though so it's fine)
more ourple saint
but it's ok because I retrieved the pearl
well I talked to Moon
uh
nothing really stood out to me this time
apart from the fact that I can hear the iterators without the Mark of Communication
I'm taking this with me
moon wasn't happy
(I'm clipped into the wall)
also
Shoreline=Frigid Coast
WHY DO TURTLES SEND ME INTO SEIZURE MODE
floating karma gate
"Silent Construct"
found the wall
the fall
"Swim with the tide or against it"
that feels like an important line
of course red centi exists
"The Husk"
noodle
danger noodle
Zappy noodle
and then you have the opposite of it
the extremely pathetic brown spider
couldn't even kill the weakest scug
and we still return to the wall
also forgot to mention this before
I am unbelievably happy that I get to see Moon in post-Riv condition
the wall be lookin a bit different today
Metro gate is not having a good time
(Neither is your spelling of metro
)
shush
you weren't supposed to see that
this is crazy
Five Pebbles didn't get a name change
he homeless
I just did 4 backflips in a row using the tongue
finally found one
how is he dead
the mouse killed him 
behold the almighty lantern mouse
funnily enough this has happened 3 times I think?
what are these silly little fellows doing in FA
the winds are a little strong (definitely didn't over double my jump length)
now this is something I never really expected
I can steal warmth from the deer
smartest creatures ever
and now they've turned into just a clump of deer
it's been over 5 minutes
of waiting
the cursed karma
I'm trying to figure out where this last echo is
only main areas I haven't gone to are DS and OE
and I don't really want to deal with OE
what-
why is there red in the grass
the grass that doesn’t want to conform to society
if you have tweaked deer mechanics enabled you can make the one you’re riding move by startling it
I haven't changed any remix settings, so if it's enabled by default then I do have it
if so that's good to know
im not sure if it is/isnt
look who finally decided to show up
chieftain passage has been invisible for so long
found out that you can just avoid sleeping by tonguing the ceiling of a shelter
aaaaaaaaaaaand the last echo is in drainage
of course it is
Undergrowth
but no cold meter so that's a bonus
I hate this place
but in theory I do have infinite cycle length so
that's a bonus if I can get a shelter in the region
found one
very cool lighting
karma 10 jumpscare
saint???
so why I have unlocked the ability of flight
I have unlocked murder
why can I grab the dead pole plant
no way I'm getting saint and monk passage as the scug who can't kill and can't eat meat
easiest nomad of my life
I love being able to fly and kill anything and everything in my way
nobody was spared.
very
how do I have both GW pearl messages from moon if I never gave it to her in Spearmaster??
just as a plan for the future:
FP-SL-LTTM-GW (shelter to be sure I have wanderer here)-IC-Outskirts-FA-SB (shelter for wanderer)-OE (shelter for wanderer if I don't have already)
then ascend ig?
plans might change if Moon has something to say about what I have to do
I do still want to get a ton of passages though
since I have 3 nearly completed
idk but it happened to me as well
i think it's automatic unlock
don't know why either but it does make things a lot easier 
five pebble is no longer in this realm
h u h
oh
I see
something I forgot to mention is that when flying I get a giant speed boost in water
similar to the rarefraction cell
I have returned to Moon
I got practically no info on what to do...
guess I'm sticking with ascension
I am debating going back on this
but at the same time
I cannot ascend jellyfish. why this is a thing I do not know
the game does not see jellyfish as living things 
but I can ascend batflies???
jellyfish are mere objects
very zappy ones at that
I kinda forgot submerged superstructure exists
so I'ma go shelter there to see if I get anything
THERE'S AN ECHO HERE??
but one remains.
OE doesn't exist
and I found out that I can just
make batflies disappear
of course. the last one is a new region
white jetsquid??
found out why the light waves were appearing so early
karma 10 jumpscare
also
apparently there's acid here
I've been locked out
this man was built different
took 3 hits
the cursed eggbug
that's a weird looking red lizor
Rubicon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
spider, red lizor, mechanical vulture, and a white lizard all in the same room
plus a guardian blocking the exit
Everything in 1 room
just realized I have a cycle timer again
also I'm seeing a lot of resemblance to other regions in Rubicon
:3
:3
:3
:3
THEY FINALLY EXIST
I love how the guardians are putting me through locked rooms with red enemies to try and get me killed
and then said red enemies just abandon the guardians
physics are not physicing
spears
THAT I CAN USE???
am I being told that I am asleep??
.
they're gone.
the truly forbidden karma
also
I CALLED IT
I guessed that I was going to kill the thing
and I did
(I think)
I have no words that can describe my amazement with this ending
Saint defeated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also
Winner. Chicken. Dinner
It's a guy!!!

do you want some FUN FACTS ✨
sure
fun fact 1 ✨ ||saint’s completed campaign art does not reset if the campaign is reset||
fun fact 2
||the item you had in your stomach when completing saint will carry over if you reset||
fun fact 3
||the music that plays while swimming up at the end is monk/survivor’s intro cutscene music (pictures of the past), but slowed and reversed||
very cool
since when did the eggbug's red cousin try and murder you??
Congrats on finishing saint 
its rubicon
The red eggbugs are incredibly funny in some regards
nothing is here to not murder you
why is it not opening?
kill all creatures
slugcat still alive
just saw one murder a red centi
so yeah pretty funny creatures
3rd iterator jumpscare
I have found yet another floating barrier
riv float 
I just remembered I still have yet to find and play Inv
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
goodluck 
step 1: cover yourself in oil
perfection.
which one is your favorite 
My favourites are the exterior and subterranean
which one is subterranean? I'm having trouble figuring it out for some reason
this one maybe ?
looks more like superstructure or filtration to me
this ones superstructure im pretty sure
yeah this is subterranean
no specific one for filtration i think
also, before I forget
from what I've been told, this was the original riddle for finding Inv
this is, minus a few bits and pieces, all my current Inv campaign-finding knowledge
yes
silent construct is pretty good too
filtration is a part of subterranean
after a significant amount of clues
I have finally successfully downloaded the wrong version of rainworld
Secret version!!!!

um

my search is finally over
I appear to have gotten stuck.
I don't remember inviting this guy into my shelter
the heck
green
For your crimes
another day of procrastinating chimney canopy inv
anyways was doing survi and monk alt endings and this happened
a momentous day this is, for after 300 hours of rainworlding
I have finally figured out how to roll

going great so far
