Grub leather plate, found by analyzing leather chunks (grinder + berry/pupa leather):

Berry leather plate:

#

Pupa leather plate:

#

Scraps?

last niche
#

You have to grind grub hide, berry leather, and pupa hide to get 5 scraps each

#

Still getting set up over here but should be at the point I can start posting unique effects soon

Oh thanks

#

im kinda upset that you have to grind really hard

#

Grubs only drop like 1 hide each grub you kill

#

So is this a thing now?😂

wanton marsh
#

so that means for upgrading 1 armor piece to level 5 you need like 30-35 grub hides

last niche
#

You can get 10 - 15 grub hides from near the green shield bug and directly around the Oak tree

On topic?

I haven't gotten to post unique armor effects yet and users are already going to have to scroll down two pages just to see them

To be clear discussion about scraps / plates is fine 👍 Because that's relevant, not trying to discourage talk about that

Yeah I'm trying to work up all the math atm

wanton marsh
#

2 scraps each grub leather plate = 124 grub leather scraps

last niche
#

25 grub hides

wanton marsh
#

1 grub hide gives 5

wanton marsh
#

grindy

#

and don't lemme start with level 6-9

#

that shit is also grindy

last niche
#

Then 6 - 7 would be:

  • 30 berry scraps
  • 15 bug rubber
  • 15 grub leather plate
    • 30 grub leather scraps
    • 15 sap
    • 15 rope
wanton marsh
#

and that is just 1 piece of armor on level 7

last niche
#

8 - 9:

  • 30 pupa leather scraps
  • 15 bug gloop
  • 30 berry scraps
  • 15 bug rubber
  • 30 grub leather scraps
  • 15 sap
  • 15 rope
wanton marsh
#

not really fun if you ask me

last niche
#

For a single armor piece up to level 9 (and feel free to correct my math here):

  • 6 pupa hide
  • 15 bug gloop
  • 33 grub hide
  • 92 sap
  • 92 rope
  • 12 berry leather
  • 30 bug rubber
wanton marsh
#

165 grub scraps are like 33 grub hides

#

so you need 99 grub hides for 1 entire armor set to be level 9

#

like

#

thats too much

last niche
#

And nearly 300 rope lol

wanton marsh
#

lol

#

i just abuse grass plates

#

90 bug rubber

#

300 sap

#

?!?!?

#

ok lets share some grub positions here

#

i need a good way to farm them

last niche
#

I spent the last two days farming them so I had about 300 hide already

#

I go to the spot with the green shield bug, there's 10+ grubs in this small area.

#

Then I go to the Oak tree, immediately around it's perimeter is a bunch of grubs. I've walled the wolf spiders into the trunk so it's very safe for me

#

Most are kind of what I expected to see -- I do like Red Ant having harvest speed, and it's interesting that clover has regeneration but given the cost of upgrading it doesn't seem worth upgrading beyond 5 for anything but lategame armor

#

Armor Upgrading

wanton marsh
#

so i got 13 now

#

from the green shield bug area

#

ok i know what to do now

#

i will have a armor set of Mother Demon mask, roly poly chestplate and roly poly shoes

#

i will also use clover armor level 7 for the regeneration

#

when im not in a fight

#

These new effects, do you have to wear the full set to get the effects, or can you use separate pieces and gain some of the effects?

last niche
#

I'm assuming the effects stack with multiple pieces of the same Sleek set

Can we pin this message above me for later?
