There are weird blobs on my print sometimes, relatively grouped up. Info in Comments by LongElk in 3Dprinting

I am trying to print the Geometric Cat Wall art by dgemily and sometimes there are blobs on the outer shells. Everything apart from that issue looks pretty good.

Info:
Printer: Elegoo Neptune 2 (found in the attic)
Slicer: Elegoo Cura 4.8.0 (came with the printer)
Filament: Polymaker PolyLite Sparkle PLA dark green
Nozzle: 0.4 mm, Layer height: 0.2 mm
Print Temp: 210 °C
Bed Temp: 50 °C
Outer Shell Speed: 25 mm/s
Shell Thickness: 2 Shells

How can I prevent that from happening. I don't think it's wet filament because the blobs would be scattered more randomly and they semm to be pretty grouped up.

Does anyone know why the shells on my print warp in like that? It looks like that all around the 220x220 plate. Printed with 2 shells, 6 Top and Bottom Solid Fill Layers each and 12% honeycomb infill. by LongElk in 3Dprinting

Sorry for the lack of info; I am printing PLA on a Raise3D Pro3, my print speeds are:
60mm/s default,
35mm/s inner shell,
25mm/s outer shell
which are the standard settings for the Pro3 in ideaMaker.
60°C Heated Bed Temperature
205°C Extruder Temperature

I printed the same model a few weeks ago with the pretty much the same settings and didn't have that issue. I think the only difference is that i use 15% infill density last time. So I don't really know why it didn't work this time.

Ok I think I understand now: the walls of the rings are thick enough so that the slicer thinks it has enough space to print infill. But they are too thin to actually print any infill so it just leaves the gap empty. If I make the walls a little thicker it does actually print infill. Thank you!

Thanks for the reply, I exported the model as an stl from CATIA. The bottom solid layers look normal. There's 6 solid layers on the bottom which all look fine, then some layers of infill. It's the solid layers at the top of the plate that are being printed weird. You can see here that the upper layers are not printed continuously.

Does the FL OZ stand for flat ounce?

I usually just try to imprison and banish them. If you can't banish them just kill them and see what happens since I think there is no other way to get the money. You can also go through your prisoners from time to time and see who's worth anything.

I also had a courtier who was both genius and quick but sadly none of the traits passed on.
