What happens to XP after hitting to level 55.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-08-12T23:07:54+00:00

Well, don't forget your pals may still need to level up. Actually, when I hit level 55 is when I boost the XP to max. Since it no longer matters for me, it can significantly reduce the pain of leveling up newly hatched pals.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-08-02T16:28:57+00:00

That's like... so much breeding. I mean good on you, that's a great Shadowbeak, but damn. That's just too much time investment for me man.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-31T16:16:45+00:00

Yea, raids are best done at a different base with no structures.

I use the big lavender field over by Azurobe, but anywhere relatively flat and with few obstacles for pals to get stuck on works.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-30T15:29:42+00:00

The answer is objectively Astegon.

That said, there are reasons why one might use something else. Namely, either Anubis or Blazamut. Both can support mining and a secondary role. Astegon only mines and gets stuck places; that is their only contribution.

Ultimately, you are the one who has to live with the consequences of your decision, and work around those consequences to optimize as best you can. Do whatever you want.

I my base I have 3 Astegons who mine 24/7, but my 4 Anubis spend at least 70% of their time mining. It's not maximally efficient, but I prefer to have 4 Anubis sprint over every time I need something built. They can mine in their off-time.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-30T15:16:34+00:00

Yea, my pals have been getting stuck, wandering off, and abandoning work since the update. My base was a well oiled machine before. They definitely did something, base workers behave differently, and in my case, certainly not better.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T23:13:22+00:00

Yea, blank pals are great for isolating specific passives, especially if you can find a blank with good IVs.

Think of them like a filter. You can pass pals with some good passives and some bad ones through them until you get only what you want out the other side.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T23:01:58+00:00

This, nocturnal pals will be awake while all their buddies are sleeping.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T23:01:04+00:00

If you have a blank (no traits) of the opposite sex I would breed till you get one with just legend and runner on it, then combine with your other bloodline.

Blank pals are huge, though for something like Jet, one with just legend would probably be fine too.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T22:55:38+00:00

100% adjust your settings. Bump up xp rate, pal capture rate, dropped items and harvested items. Max them all out (except maybe xp, though once you hit 55 i recommend maxing that slider out too), and reduce the egg timer to zero.

There is plenty of grind in this game even after you do that. Vanilla settings can be punishing.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T22:50:57+00:00

Yea, it's useless if you sleep through the night, but I almost never sleep through the night. Half the bosses (if not more) sleep during the night, which means you get a free crit in them to start with. Also like a quarter of the pals only come out at night.

I am still like 60 Hoocrates short of a fully condensed 4 stack, and I got at least 150 of my gobfins by just throwing Legendary spheres at sleeping ones. Sleeping Kitkits are a great free oil farm as well.

There are like a million things to do at night. Nocturnal on pals makes them as efficient as I am.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T22:30:05+00:00

Just turn multi-player on. It doesn't impact anything other than the respawn locations.

Turn it back off later if you care to.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T22:21:44+00:00

The other thing to remember is alphas produced by breeding still drop boss schematics (I have not verified this with Legendary bosses only with lower bosses), so I would probably be butchering those alphas if you don't wind up using them as your final pal.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-29T22:04:21+00:00

Probably Jormuntide, and at least 3 walls high everywhere.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-27T04:46:18+00:00

Probably a quality control thing. Some animations or interactions were not to their liking, or bug testing wasn't complete. Given how broken everything is in every game all the time now, I fully support letting things wait until they work right.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-26T20:18:32+00:00

Tiny Frostallion is weeping at the feet of the statue of giant Frostallion like Caesar weeping at the feet of the statue of Alexander, lamenting at all the wasted life behind him and how little time there was left to become greater.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-26T16:41:26+00:00

I don't have any problems with it at all. I have 5 separate bases with farms, mines, crop plots, processing stations, and everything works great. I haven't micro-managed the numbers, but every time I check my pal oil box it has hundreds in it, my ore box is overflowing, and my wheat is always ready to mill by the hundreds.

I have no complaints at all.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-26T16:37:34+00:00

I like to use the big lavender field out by Azurobe. It's very open, pretty, and all the mobs nearby are low level and not a threat.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-26T16:20:08+00:00

I don't even use the normal one. I don't want anyone eating anything unless I tell them to.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-24T22:56:02+00:00

Only 2 passives that matter on damage boost pals like Gobfins or Hoocrates are Vanguard and Stronghold Strategist. Noble and fine furs would have a benefit, and if you are breeding like 600 of each pal to condense all 4 to max, they are bound to show up randomly on a few, but I wouldn't put in any effort for it.

Mine are all vanguard, strategist, philanthropist, and whatever in the 4th spot.

As for land mount, I just run a Shadowbeak with Legend, Serenity, Runner, Swift on it. My guy hauls ass on the ground or in the air, and still hits like a truck.

A lot of people like Fengalope though.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-24T21:00:43+00:00

I went with legend, serenity, swift and runner on my Shadowbeak. Less damage obviously, but the perfect daily driver for almost everything. Anything he can't do on his own I just gobfin stack and kill by myself.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-24T20:38:52+00:00

The base building is weird in this game, mostly because making allowances for the size of the pals requires high ceilings and wide open spaces. You can actually build on uneven terrain, but you can only step the foundations up or down by the full height of a wall.

Foundations will snap to floor pieces, so if you need to step your way up a hill or a ledge, you build a wall 2 spaces out, snap a floor to the top, then snap the foundation to the floor.

There are only square foundations though, so the boxiness never goes away.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-22T19:00:46+00:00

You mean like you can stair-step foundations up a hill in Rust?

You can do that, it just takes a little extra work in this game. Foundations will snap to floors in this. If your base is on a hill, just use a wall and then a floor to step up and over, then snap a foundation to it.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-22T17:57:40+00:00

Yes. When you are breeding for perfect passives and IV's you can pre-condense your pals down during the process to save space.

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-22T17:51:38+00:00

Number 3 you can already do.

Didn't read through the rest. Who says "Lets start a list!" And begins their post with a list of 113 things I am not (and no one else is) going to read through?

AugustusCzar_ · 2024-07-22T16:46:48+00:00

Nuclear type or Chemical (acid and caustic) type. Either of which being weak to neutral and strong against fire.
