oXDemosthenesXo posted:Tons of games keep releasing content updates that add more and more options after they're "done" and 1.0 status means nothing anymore. I am not talking about releasing as soon as the final biome is in, but rather when all is fleshed out. A lot of games release content post release via DLCs. Personally I would prefer that they flesh out existing biomes rather than release the skeleton of a game.

The only one I want more expansion on is the Ocean, and that's not really a biome so much as interstitium.

Larger old structures, more interesting dungeons (Mistland dungeons are decent, but mountain caves are pathetic, and plains really have nothing beyond villages), wider variety of fauna. I dunno, reasons to be in the biome beyond when you defeat it's boss? Personally I would have liked to see "past" biomes have new advanced content pop up in them once you defeat a boss in a higher end biome. (not just higher end raids, but structures, and maybe more difficult enemies evolving from existing beasts) Hasselblad fucked around with this message at 18:40 on Mar 30, 2024 |

I guess, but it's designed as a s linear progression through biomes so short of needing iron for everything (which imo should be turned down so youre not regularly returning to the swamps) I'm not sure why you would stick around or why that should be a design goal. I wouldn't say no, mind you, I just never felt like I missed out on anything in the existing places.

I like the Frost Caves as dungeons. The only problem is that they’re pretty superfluous if you aren’t crafting the cultist armor set, which I understand is considered mandatory by the thread, or want the buiding supplies. But they’re fun to explore at level, nice and tense.

Guildenstern Mother posted:A new wall texture that's not gated behind endgame stuff. That as well. A few more pieces for each biome would open up a lot of design flexibility. And FFS give us a use for troll hides beyond the armor. Hasselblad fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Mar 30, 2024 |

Do monsters in dungeons reset, or do they just stay put forever? I got murked by a 2-star seeker right at the entrance to a mine, and now he's just sitting on my corpse, and I have no way of making him go away :P

In the entrance room itself? They should calm down when you’re not there, and you’ll have a second or two to move around before they attack. You might be able to grab you body in that time. They do wander a little bit, so it won’t always be right on top of your corpse. Still a dangerous business, of course. I don’t know if they ever completely reset back to their spawn locations. If so, it’s probably on the same timeframe as respawning, i.e. many days.

But from my experience, 'entry room' of infested mines should be safe if you don't cross the very first 'opening' right after the entrance and stay near the exit. I killed a lot of bugs from there with ranged weapons when I was overwhelmed, monsters seem unable to cross that first opening and you should be able to avoid seeker soldier's slamming attack if you stay near the exit.

It’s tough for them to cross the gap, but they definitely can if you tempt fate hard enough. Beetles can easily jump onto the ledge under the entrance, then jump up, although they have to do that second jump at an angle to make it. Seekers can just fly in if they’re diving in from the right direction, but usually they’ll either just pace back and forth on the other side of the gap or fly back and forth and get caught on the ridge above the entrance.

Yeah for the most part that first landing surface in dungeons is safe, except for the mines. The seekers and ticks can both jump up there and if there's a two star already camped on that ledge... I think your best bet is grab your (maxed out) plains armor, equip your shield, activate bone mass then walk in and hold your block as you load in. You'll need to quickly position to one side so the seeker doesn't bonk you back out. A 2nd player or dev command would do it too.

Yeah I'm sure this is over by now but mines are not safe at the entrance, seekers climb over the other seekers and soldiers and end up on the pad. A 2 star? Yikes yeah bonemass and i hope your parry is on point.

Oof. Yeah, I haven't gone back to deal with that yet. I should probably just console command myself out of this jam but maybe I'll try out that BRS dealio or something first.

You only really need 3 things for Bonemass - a maxed out iron mace, a maxed out iron buckler, and poison resist potions. I guess a handful of health/sta pots for oh poo poo moments and a hoe to flatten out his altar area. At least one of his melee attacks is an easy parry, and iirc that lets you get at least one full combo of mace hits in. Run away from his cloud, run away from the hard-to-parry hits, rinse & repeat. Maxed iron mace takes care of the adds really quickly. Also learn to manage your stamina - you don’t need to be running & jumping every single second to dodge stuff, and figuring that out is better for all of your fights; not just Bonemass.
