The [SPOILER] Target

[velvet wind]

Huh

[twin parrot]

[small wren]

[velvet wind]

Hmm weird

[velvet wind]

Happy birthday. ALSO I JUST MADE THE POST

[small wren]

right. they're a spoiler too

[velvet wind]

Monk skinny jeans

[twin parrot]

Ty!!

[velvet wind]

[twin parrot]

Ik you just made the post too

I'm speedy

[velvet wind]

Now its "The spoiler target"

[twin parrot]

[vital blaze]

instantly spoiler blasted

[oak patrol]

Ruffles lives in every first playthrough thread

[twin parrot]

I do indeed

Who needs food when you have playthrough threads to watch
(This is a joke, make sure to eat prioritize eating over being online please )

[vital blaze]

why not eat the threads?

[velvet wind]

(No)

[velvet wind]

What is shaded not miros bird stuff?

[velvet wind]

Chat i have question

So the gates open with scav bodies. But why do they close even if the scav is still at the gate? It shouldnt close untill the scav leaves no?

[zinc valley]

Don't question it... unless you hate your sanity.

[small wren]

if the player crosses the gate, it closes

[velvet wind]

Yeah but you cannot enter the gate without a scav. So it would make sense that you cant leave without one. Or at least it wont close if the scav is still there

[small wren]

no, it wouldn't, because what matters to the game is whether the player crosses the gate or not. and it'd make an unnecessary requirement of taking the scav corpse with you

[velvet wind]

It would make sense. Since the gate thinks a scav is crossing, and normally it waits untill you cross. Only thing you have to do is keep the gate open

[small wren]

this would still make an unnecessary requirement of taking the corpse with you

even if i agreed with you

[velvet wind]

No. If you dont take the corpse just keep the gate open. Like you never left

So it wont close

[small wren]

i genuinely don't understand why you would make this more complicated

if you want to carry the corpse this much, just do it. you aren't forced to leave it there

the gate does not care about other creatures, which is why it can close before your pet lizard crosses it

[velvet wind]

Anyway. Sofanthiel is Artificer's companion drone. It is a golden floating device with a single red eye which follows Artificer. The spelling Sofantheil is also correct. Sofanthiel allows Artificer to travel to a special region unique to their campaign. Is this where inv is from or?

Since this is what you type for inv

[small wren]

idk the sofanthiel lore

[velvet wind]

Wait what you can craft lanterns?

https://static.wikitide.net/rainworldwiki/4/42/ArtificerCraftingLantern.gif

Im in HI

Its kinda late for lanterns now

[velvet wind]

Umm hello. I JUST LEFT THE PIPE AND INSTANTLY WENT BACK. AND TEHSE 3 SPAWNED IN WHAT

WHERE YALL CAM FROM I WAS GONE FOR LESS THAN A SECOND

[velvet wind]

Whta happened

Oops

wait

Repost

Is this like a new batsear?

What happened

I just hit a electric spear

[small wren]

it does look like a batspear

[velvet wind]

Its not

Its just a electric spear

Hmm

new batspear method?

[small wren]

i don't see why it wouldn't work with electric spears. they don't break like espears

[velvet wind]

Idk but new batspear method found. Just need a way to recreate it

Maybe i grabbed the vulture?

Can you?

[small wren]

yes

[velvet wind]

Can they go troug hgates?

Uhh

pipes

[small wren]

if it was dead you could grab it

[velvet wind]

It was not dead

I suppose

Only if it was alredy dead which is really unlikely

We need nerds here

[small wren]

I don't really understand what you mean by the new batspear method

[velvet wind]

Well uhh. I hit a vulture with a electric spear. And then it started doing this. And i dont think i grabbed it since i think i would also need to press grab again (I didnt when i hit it) and my mask would fall off

I couldnt have grabbed it. Its not dead, and i dont think they fit trough pipes. and i didnt press grab

And my mask would be put on the gorung

ground

And no echoes

[small wren]

you batspear by using batflies, it has nothing to do with whether you use normal or electric spears

[velvet wind]

I didnt batspear it thats the thing

I didnt use any bats

[small wren]

it can happen accidentally

[velvet wind]

Maybe But i highly doubt there would be bats under a vulture

I speared it under him

Here ill make a sketch

[small wren]

as long as pears are linked, it works. doesn't matter if you did intentionally or not

[velvet wind]

Bro how would i even do that, i need 2 spears for that im playing arti

I only have one spear

Here ill draw

[small wren]

again, batspears happen on accident

[velvet wind]

Dont you need 2 spears for a batspear to happen

[velvet wind]

Here take

We need nerd here

Hmm

@earnest locust Commere for a second

Read from here #1389666962073980958 message

[small wren]

I don't understand this

[earnest locust]

Weren't you just holding it?

[velvet wind]

I was under a kv after i went trough a pipe.
I speared it with the electric spear.
It started following me

[velvet wind]

Wouldnt my mask fall off? Also my kills says he isnt dead

No kv kill

[velvet wind]

Also after i hit with the spear i swear i didnt press grab

I just left

I dont wanna get grabbed so i just went trough the pipe

After that

I returned. Respeared

With the same spear

[small wren]

if you didn't batspear it the only other option is that you grabbed it

[velvet wind]

and the he started following me

[velvet wind]

But i didnt press grab. Also dosent he have to be dead to grab it?

AND AGAIN MY MASK WOULD FALL OFF

Yo you can see at the end me with the mask

To grab something you need both hands

So mask would get left out

[small wren]

not necessarily

[velvet wind]

[small wren]

corpses might work differently

[velvet wind]

Alright ill test with beastmaster if i can drag a kv corpse with a mask

[wise hatch]

The vulture was alive

Just stunned by the electric spear

Arti can grab living creatures due to the maul ability

No funny spear tech involved, just pulling it through the pipe with you

[velvet wind]

Hmm

[velvet wind]

But why would i press grab Cause i just hit it and left

[wise hatch]

Could be accidental

Maybe you explosivejumped

One of the keys in explosive jumping is grab and I've often grabbed or let go of stuff by accident that way

[velvet wind]

No i press c for explosive jump

Special key

[wise hatch]

Ah, wack

[velvet wind]

If only rw somehow kept a log of keys you pressed

Hmm maybe

[velvet wind]

Ha

[velvet wind]

After this i will able to rank metropolis. Is metropolis pebbles' city?

[small wren]

don't you already know the answer if you know about metropolis?

[velvet wind]

No i just know its called metropolis and i met peblles saying abut citizens, city, stuff

[small wren]

find out then

[velvet wind]

THIS ROOM IS IMPOSSIBLE

SCAVS JUST KEEP SPAWNING

WHAT DO I DO

[small wren]

take a different route

[velvet wind]

Bruh

[wise hatch]

Kill the scavs

[velvet wind]

BRO JUST LET ME PASS

[oak patrol]

Holding the scav corpse combines its karma with yours. So the gate detects there's high enough karma in the slug and allows for passage.
The gates don't allow scavengers on their own (imagine coming to a gate and seeing it's on cooldown because a scav decided to go through, leaving you unable to take it in that cycle), so why would it care about the corpse with you? It only cares about the one it registered as having enough karma, which would be you.
(This is speculation btw)

[velvet wind]

So chat

I will cheat.

BECAUSE ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO EVEN GET TO A SHELTER

L CAMPAIGN

Gourmand was better

[small wren]

that i agree with

[tranquil hamlet]

i too agree with that

✨

[twin parrot]

I highly disagree with that

[oak patrol]

I'm neutral on that

[vital blaze]

i'm also neutral on that

[zinc valley]

I think arti is different in a interesting way that not everyone likes.

[raw iron]

I always headcanoned that's because ||the scav is dead. Think of it as wearing a mask - it's not the mask that does anything, but you who wears it. You apply scav's karma to yourself and that triggers gate. But gate still "knows" that only an alive creature can cross it, so it tracks the crossing of an alive being|| - not really spoilers, just my version, hid it in case you don't want someone's opinion to affect you :> Hope it makes sense. And, yeah, the doylist explanation is that the game just doesn't give a thing about anything aside from the player, so don't question it much, the logic here is somewhat dubious
