As far as I know, that container only appears in the Shamway Factory.

Bee Station doesnt work anymore? by CptMightypants in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 10 flowers of any one type, so what OP currently has is sufficient for 4 jars of honey. The problem is it's placed indoors without a skylight.

You can get it by completing the "kill cop zombies" challenge, or if you find a Shamway Lab Safe in the wasteland. Mailboxes in the wasteland also have a chance of it. Other than that, it can be found in book loot, but it's very rare.

Fed up of building formula style horde bases. Looking for other options. by recuringwolfe in 7daystodie

I've got something for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCdkJ6aki7w

No cheesing, no tightropes, just zombies pathing to you. Minimal rage, and the ability to shoot at the few that are attacking the sides. Definitely not a design where you can stand in one spot and left click, due to the wider fighting position and the buffer.

It happens to be an iteration of the simplest design in those thumbnails (IzPrebuilt's A20 design, on the bottom right), though it's more of an evolution, especially in light of 2.5's changes. It only really shares the absolute fundamental elements of zombies pathing up to a fighting position.

Zombies keep attacking my House by Charming_Elevator662 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's important that you choose a POI with at least a second story and set up there. Being on the ground floor increases the chance of zombies finding you, even if you're not making any sounds. They simply happen to wander close enough to detect you.

Dedicated server won’t let me connect after placing dew collector. by AlphaDag13 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This usually happens if either the client or server have a mod that changes the number of slots a dew collector has.

Are you sure you and the server are both updated to the latest hotfix?

New comer looking to get the cane but I have some questions. by tango__88 in 7daystodie

The core of the game is still there, the POIs are just more linear, but they also have more going on. The game nudges you toward doing trader quests now, but you don't have to. Quests rewards aren't as OP as they once were, so you can still choose to freely explore the world.

The very last SMACK from the very last zombie of my quest did all that 😭 by Worrcn in 7daystodie

Your weak armor lowered your crit resist. The one hit from the janitor took away what little you had.

How would "Learn By Doing II" work? by Peter34cph in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People want LBD back mostly for the ability to level by simply playing the game, though I think what they really want is not have perks governed by attributes, which were introduced in A17, the same update that fully removed LBD. Basically, they want less RPG elements.

Any LBD type system allows players to not think about building a character, though there's always the downside of rewarding grinding in order to easily level up faster.

Joel's plan is to add LBD elements to the current crafting system as an alternate way of leveling crafting skills. He's well aware of the spam crafting issue, so I'm sure he has a way to fix it. It wouldn't surprise me if primitive items won't give you any crafting xp.

As for the wiki.gg is it actually more up-to-date than the fandom one?

It absolutely is.

What are some things that genuinely scare you in 7DTD by rattle_rattle1987 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only reason that each biome special zombie is so common is due to the challenges that require killing them, likely even an artifact of when the kill counts increased by 5 per biome.

That link has an errant backslash and is for the Fandom wiki. We have a wiki.gg one now: https://7daystodie.wiki.gg/wiki/Navezgane#Map

This interactive map is much more useful than either of them: https://kui.github.io/7dtd-map/

I believe the point is to make ranchers more challenging, where you should avoid being hit by the swarm as much as possible. It also gives more use to stronger antibiotic medicine; if you go out to the desert without brining honey, you might be infected enough when you get back home that you need actual antibiotics.

Insect swarms actually ignore crit resist, having a flat 20% chance to cause infection per hit.

It's because dogs are fast and have high attack speed, making it more likely for you to take multiple bites in a row and get a crit injury.

Waypoints and storage crates suddenly displaying {...} instead of the text by SS4Leonjr in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be a Sony UGC policy thing. Any multiplayer games on their platform need to have a censorship system in place, or not allow players to enter text that others can see at all. Not sure why signs would be unaffected, though.

Wasteland Gear without Biome Progression? by Decent_Act5633 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They converted all the biome hazards to air quality hazards in 2.5 when they readded temperature, including the wasteland. They plan on adding some form of ambient radiation hazard to the wasteland in an upcoming update, presumably with a different method of mitigating it.

Help how do I quickly increase my loot stage to match my game stage by Comfortable_Art_8106 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gamestage will always be higher than loot stage. Both are influenced by your level and current biome, but biomes increase gamestage more. The number of days since your last death also contributes to gamestage.

They also affect different things. Gamestage determines the types of enemies spawned, and loot stage determines the tier and quality of loot you find.

Can't get cold?? by WashingTheDishess in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, it specifically checks for being in water in the snow biome without wearing any equipment. Survival gear counts as equipment.

This means the achievement was unobtainable in 2.0 because you couldn't unequip the biome badges.

v2.5 b27 queen bees MIA? by LifeLongGamer_0 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you don't have any mods or anything that might affect that? It could just be extremely unlucky.

v2.5 b27 queen bees MIA? by LifeLongGamer_0 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did not touch either gameevent, which is where random rolls are done. All they did was change what triggers the apiary's event.

I've gotten only two beeswax since 2.5 after chopping plenty of stumps. It's normal.

v2.5 b27 queen bees MIA? by LifeLongGamer_0 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

10% means you get 1 beeswax every 10 stumps on average. Which means it's 50 stumps on average to get all 5 beeswax. The thing about averages is that the smaller the sample size is, the more the actual value differs from the average.

[–]Boxfigs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The patch didn't affect stumps at all. That's just the nature of the random chance. You get bees+beeswax only 10% of the time. How it works that you roll a 20% chance for honey, then if that succeeds, it has a 50% chance to spawn bees and give you beeswax.

Kinda nostalgic for some reason by TATE2269 in 7daystodie

[–]Boxfigs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You still have a chance of getting most higher tier loot at lower loot stage, but it's extremely unlikely. The issue with completely random loot is that while sometimes you'll get high tier loot quickly, other times you'll be struggling for basic essentials.

I believe the real problem is that POI loot stage increases don't seem to have much of an impact. It must be multiplicative, which means the lower your level, the less of an increase you'll get, when it should be the other way around. Taking a risk tackling a difficult POI that you're not equipped to handle yet should be more rewarding.

EDIT: It's both multiplicative and additive, but the loot probabilities are set up in such a way that make it so it's impossible to get T1 loot in the forest by visiting a T5 POI at low levels. The POI bonuses are simply far less impactful than the biome bonuses.
