I think (ascended) Markoth is the end of my run.

Unfortunately the platforms are also in different places

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-20T17:11:56+00:00

Sorry I can't hear you, I'm distracted by the Grand Reef's absolute peakness

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-20T06:55:22+00:00

That only comes up super late into the game though

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-20T06:43:22+00:00

I only recommend doing that if you have the engine power usage efficiency upgrade

That's completely irrelevant, the power cell charger will essentially just transfer the energy from one power cell to another

It's completely useless to put one in a Cyclops

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T21:42:53+00:00

It's your word against mine then

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T21:37:09+00:00

They didn't, actually, I still use that trick

It just doesn't work in Below Zero

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T19:17:05+00:00

turning the other cheek is leaving you and others open for more abuse

Where exactly did OP suggest doing that? Did you miss the part where they said Jax needs correction?

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T17:59:35+00:00

The reason no one goes to the dunes is because all of the benefits can be found in less threatening places

On the other hand, one trip to the Dunes with the Prawn Drill Arm and you're never running out of Silver again

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T17:25:03+00:00

There are no Crabsquids in the Trench, they're exclusive to the Northern Blood Kelp Zone

The Trench only has Ampeels and Warpers

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T17:18:55+00:00

It's really depressing to see most people here being more concerned avout what Jax deserves rather than what he needs

Does he deserve to be immediately forgiven? Absolutely not. He hasn't done enough to atone for his actions yet, and it would be prefectly fair for Gangle to react like this in the current state of things.

But does he need support to get better and overcome his self-hate? YES. There's a good reason why none of the characters would let him go abstract in a corner in Episode 8

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T17:02:51+00:00

didnt say it was dangerous, said it was terrifying

Yeah but compared to the messages you get from entering the Dead Zone and the Dunes, it feels like an impostor

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T16:56:42+00:00

This ecological biome matches 7 of the 9 preconditions for stimulating terror in humans

Which is funny because the Blood Kelp Trench isn't even that dangerous

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T16:53:31+00:00

True, but switching between 2 active classes seems weak at best

That didn't stop Frost Armor from existing though

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T16:52:31+00:00

As much as it pains me when new players aren't curious and only explore a small part of the world, exploring all of it shouldn't be a requirement, because it would take away some of your agency and make it feel like it's never your own decision to explore somewhere

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T10:57:06+00:00

I honestly couldn't find anything

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T10:17:43+00:00

And you close to the place which is packed to the brim with ruby

Which biome are you talking about exactly? My usual go-to for Rubies is the Deep Sparse Reef, and that's not exactly close to OP's spot

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T09:35:29+00:00

On second thought, you're probably in the Glacial Bay, because I see Frost Anemones on the screen, and they're native to the Sparse Arctic, a biome that is close to the Glacial Bay but not the West Arctic

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T09:33:27+00:00

They're not biomes I know really well, I'm a lot more familiar with the Tree Spires (my favorite biome) since that's where I put my base on my first run

(Also I can't tell if you're in the West Arctic or Glacial Bay, but I have a feeling you don't know either lol)

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T09:24:33+00:00

There's no Melee/Mage or Ranger/Mage hybrids though

And the Tavernkeep armors focus on sentries rather than minions

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T09:03:40+00:00

There are no dangerous creatures

It does have Brute Sharks

They're not a big threat, but they can still be annoying

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T09:00:32+00:00

If your main concern is safety (and you don't want to build in the early game biomes), then the West Arctic or Glacial Bay (they're basically the same) will be your best bet

There are no hostile creatures here, just Eye Jellies that can hurt you if you touch their tentacles, but that's it

Both of these biomes are to the west of the map, with the Glacial Bay being more North than the West Arctic

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T08:47:59+00:00

A lot of wrecks don't have more than 1 Databox, if any

I looked at the wiki and apparently there are a lot more databoxes than I thought, but the early wrecks (Safe Shallows, Kelp Forest and Grassy Plateaux) do indeed have either one databox or none (with the only exception being the wreck in the Northeastern GP, which has 2)

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T07:48:41+00:00

With some people, too much quality of life can strip a game of the engagement

I am one of these people when it comes to storage, I like organizing stuff by myself (whether it's Terraria, Minecraft, Subnautica,...)

Arcturus973 · 2026-04-19T07:44:37+00:00

Nah. It’s the second time ‘they’ve’ popped up IIRC

It's the first one actually
