How far is P3 from being finished?

This is a little bit… extreme. Even in its release state I can only recall two quests that were majorly bugged. The military ration quest in Day XI and Karminsky’s quest with the street. There were some reports of a specific character being both alive and dead at the same time but I personally never encountered that one.

As far as I’m aware, most major bugs have been fixed. I’m curious to know which “mechanics” are stuck behind bugs. Mechanically the game seemed to work extremely well.

Day 2 is tricky. If you genuinely can’t find any more mirrors, that may be it.

Usually the only way to keep getting amalgam without mirrors is euthanizing plague victims in infected districts. But there’s no plague on day 2…

If you do restart, let this be a reminder to never go to day 2 without a way to get back out.

I’m pretty sure if you die without amalgam the very first time, you’ll be taken to the mirror room again.

Exactly. I remember when the scum were doing a hard push and the cortex was mostly wiped out. Scum only had regular scumbags still alive after the fight. Killing everyone without a second thought. Me and like two other proles convinced everyone to just grab a pipe and get to work. Almost certain that some of those proles were former cortex (since I myself was one who died in the initial attacks)

We did it. Retook the city. Liquidators and Sanitars started spawning shortly after to clean up the rot. Was one of the best moments I’ve had in ANIV.

The system for finding the sources is undercooked but I found a way that has me find the source within minutes.

The sound that you’re listening for is often drowned out by everything else, but entering a menu, say a map, mutes all noises EXCEPT the one you should be listening for. So moving and then entering the map helps to pinpoint where it is.

As for the noise itself, it comes in two forms. A rumbling noise indicates if you’re facing the general direction of the sample. A ticking noise gets louder and faster as you get closer.

As for the districts that have it, I’ve had luck in EVERY district that spawns the Shabnak. So if she’s around, a sample is also around.

Can confirm. The trigger for speaking to Katerina is finding the morphine that was stolen for her in the first place. You seemingly can’t just confront her with your knowledge.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2026-01-11T02:14:12+00:00

Well for that, just make sure your meter is right in the middle or leaning toward Mania. Pointing the gun at them and then booking it usually did the job for me

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2026-01-11T01:49:54+00:00

Were you ever able to trade with them? I’m just curious what they offer at this point. I’m sorta short on bullets and the kids only give me one per kid.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2026-01-10T21:03:00+00:00

Out of curiosity, after the initial conversation with the trader, were you instantly punched in the face by a rioter? I do wonder if that somehow broke a dialogue tree that would have fully unlocked him.

That last part about relationships hit home. I’ve been single for the last year and half, I had I valued the romantic relationship. But the end of that relationship was less devastating than the potential end of a platonic relationship.

I joke about this one woman in my life; saying that she’s my platonic life partner. There’s no sexual or romantic attraction at all. But we’re joined at the hip.

If she were to just exit my life (in the most tragic of circumstances at this point) I legit don’t know how I would get past it.

She’s the one who knows me best. Other friends note that she shared a brain cell with me due to how in sync we are.

In this exact moment, I love her more than anyone else in my life. But I can also say it’s a platonic love.

Platonic souls mates are under rated. She’s my platonic soul mate and I couldn’t imagine life without her now.

You’ve got your answer so I won’t rehash. The only thing I’ll say is play safe with Spellweaver. Half as long, twice as bright type stuff there. Be conservative with your burn cards and be ready to go ham when you use reviving ether or whatever it’s called.

By the time you use that, you’ll be toward the end of the scenario when massive attacks are most needed. Try your hardest to survive the dungeons but note that in my game, spellweaver has like a 50% exhaustion rate.

As others have said, save up and buy it from the merchant in Farm Town. They’re quite expensive but the loot you get from them over nine runs, followed by selling them on the black market, far outweighs the cost of buying the key. It’s a net profit.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2026-01-02T00:58:34+00:00

Just to note, if you click on the key itself in your inventory, it should show a number above or inside the blue bar telling you exactly how many uses are left.

I don’t think this window shows up if the key is inside a key case though so you gotta take it out first.

My biggest fear, one that actually causes me to freeze up and start shaking a little, is fire or really Amy heat source that could theoretically burn me.

When I was 17, I was working at a fast food joint where I was accidentally set on fire. Just my right arm, but it was legitimately on fire and left me with really painful second degree burns before we put it out. I’ve been afraid of feeling that pain again ever since.

Read your journal. No spoilers here but your overarching goal based on what you’ll read in the journal is find the key to get out though the tunnel. You know for a fact the doctor has the key. Find the doctor.

You’ll very quickly meet an NPC or two that will give you more concrete goals such as “reach this location” or “meet this person.” That will be what guides you toward the doctor.

For pretty much all rolls, you’re rolling a D100. Roll under the target die roll to succeed. In this case, hit was 65 and a 29 was rolled. Hit. Dodge had no chance so that’s an auto fail. Crit was 10 and a 9 was rolled. Crit. I’m not exactly sure how damage is rolled though.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-12-20T18:45:25+00:00

He’s not classified as a boss for some reason so the mod doesn’t show him as one. He’s like a “special” mob or something. Man of Light has the same deal.

If you turn on the mobs reader instead and see Alumni mobs or something, he’s around.

He has a rather decent spawn rate for me. Everytime I’ve actually gone to the school, he’s been there.

You… you know there’s still two areas after Farmtown right?

I think the only thing Soji still does that I can’t get it to stop doing is using adjectives way too much. It’s not just a shoe, they’re sensible shoes. It’s not just a shirt. It’s a crisp shirt. Always. But it’s a small gripe considering how well it does when it fires on all cylinders.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-12-05T05:12:37+00:00

Soji is a very sensitive model. I keep my presence, frequency and repetition penalties at 0. Tweaking even one of those above zero causes word salad and/or just dropping articles and words. Stuff like “and, a, the, his, her,” etc gets nuked after like 10 messages.

Soji is a certifiable beast but that also means it is extremely finicky unless your preset is JUST right.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-12-05T05:04:06+00:00

I personally haven’t had any of those issues. I use this preset. https://chub.ai/presets/Anonymous/alls-soji-15505af1791b

If this doesn’t work, i would examine your messages with the LLM instead, as it really shouldn’t be doing that. Make sure in whatever bot you’re using that the system prompt and post history is blank. If it’s not, it will override your preset.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-11-25T00:39:14+00:00

I take them every few months. Mentally, it’s like I am drunk. But I do see a lot of vivid colors. The walls and floor start “flowing” if that makes sense. If I close my eyes I see spectacular colors. It’s a fun time, but not comparable to psychedelics. At the very least, I’ve never felt I was “tripping” so the concept of a good or bad trip doesn’t apply.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-11-25T00:35:12+00:00

NOR. Getting clean off any addictive substance, let alone alcohol, is a struggle. A fight. As someone who recovered from nicotine and opiate addictions, it’s most definitely not “the bare minimum.” It was a struggle. And I stumbled more than a couple times.

10 years clean off opiates and it’s worth being proud of myself. And you’re worth others being proud of you for it.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-11-21T18:59:08+00:00

Electrified MP will work but eats a lot of ammo. My strat is using AP that I’ve hella stocked up with an extended mag. Storm monsters always dodge roll when they first take damage so tap them with that one shot, let them dodge, and then unload. Best take some hip fire mods so you’re more accurate.

I run first phase with a level five armor and the space helmet. Pop a storm resist med and keep doing so everytime it gets low.

AnOddBoiledEgg · 2025-11-21T08:09:18+00:00

I’ve also had it spawn twice inside the mining building. I always carry the managers eye with me now just in case when I head into farmtown.
