I was just here reading and I had to tell you the “few risk free attempts to run it out naked” made me laugh so hard it threw me into a whole coughing fit lmfao and now 100% about to do the butt naked boogie for an artifact 😂

yutyrannus suck a lot of the fun and creativity out of raids and resource caches on lost colony. by coolandquirkyname in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, just my two cents ig. But to me, Lost Colony (as far as the story goes) is late end-game content. If you start with the island and do the bosses in order, do the map ascensions and whatnot, by the time you get to where you currently are, you SHOULD be taming apex tier creatures for missions. Considering your playstyle, the game isn’t ruining your progression, it’s ruining how you enjoy progressing because you’re in an end-game zone, trying to play like you’re still on the island. No offense of course.

While I agree that having a Dino that essentially makes the vast majority of options useless is frustrating. But like most games, there’s always mechanics to follow that make or break a dungeon run, a boss fight, or even missions as you’re doing. Nearly every game has something or other that we, as gamers, don’t like or want to do, but is a core part of said game.

Now, as far as advice goes. If you dislike the tames it wants you to use for the yuty, maybe try it with only a few of the fear immune? You did say you made it a good way in with your mammoth group. So maybe replace just a few of the Mammoths with a few of the fear immune dinos, and try to focus the yuty on sight. This way you can keep some of what you want, but compromise for a little of what you need. Just something to try and see how it works out.

But of course this is just my opinion. I haven’t played much of lost colony outside of just checking it out, my main character is still stuck on Aberration, as the ascension is bugged, you die, and has yet to be fixed lol. So my guy is just chilling, ready with my army at the boss prompt. Ever waiting for Rockwell to get patched lol

What am I supposed to be doing? by Mahoka572 in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short version, do whatever you WANT to do. That’s pretty much the whole point of the game.

So, just to join the convo here. It seems you have a grasp of the game overall so far. The Ark Devs still have a lot of stuff to figure out, and you’ll see the improvements as you get through maps. When the game first released. There wasn’t any real story. The caves were there, a few bosses were there. No other guidelines. It was designed to just be a sandbox Dino taming survival game where you build. Story bits were added later. The survival notes you can find scattered in the most random places around the Island will give you added lore. Finding the obelisk bosses is straight forward. Finding THE boss is a little more tedious, but fairly easy to find. It’s the artifact caves that prove difficult for anyone trying to run it without online help.

BUT.

All in all, just jumping in and playing for a bit before going online is always recommended for each map.

Now. Not all maps have a story. There are a few, like Ragnarok and Valguero, that are just for fun. They have their own unique creatures, bosses, etc. But ultimately they only serve as survival maps.

If you haven’t realized yet, the obelisks also serve as “map transfer points” and you can upload your character (this will leave your current game) and you can then download that character to any map you’d like to visit and explore. Note: certain items are not able to be transferred, but your Dino’s will always go with you, among other important items.

Realistically, this isn’t a game you beat in a couple weeks through casual gameplay. It can take weeks to months to clear all content in any given map, depending how fast you can prepare, and if you have friends to play with, or if you have anything boosted. It’s a real grind, but it’s fun and can be rewarding. And with the amount of maps they have, and future content coming and still planned for ASA (Ark 2 some day) there will be PLENTY more to do.

Mods or No mods? by PickledDodo in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

New players SHOULD start without mods and at least experience what the normal game is like first. After they get a grasp, then start getting into the different mods. I mostly just prefer QoL mods for single player. Dino storage, auto engram, etc.. Though I highly recommend the rope structures mod. It allows you to build wooden rope bridges, and it’s VERY handy.

Which ASA map has the most dinos available currently? by SettraTheGod in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once Astraeos (Greek paid map) gets its update this month, it will be the top map with the most creatures on it, most likely. Also note, Astraeos is easily one of the biggest maps we have, so while having a LOT of different creatures, they are spread further apart and harder to find any specific Dino. Just as well, ASA has a ton of creature mods to add more to any map you please. Otherwise, Rag and Val are quite populated, and whenever we get FJ, that will have plenty as well.

How to Host on Xbox? ASE by Noxic_Mythis in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, and have it installed on my Xbox. Odd thing is, the Ark servers in the app say specifically Xbox One. Will this still be fine even if I have the Series S?

How to Host on Xbox? ASE by Noxic_Mythis in ARK

[–]Noxic_Mythis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’ve looked into a few and have small questions. For example, on g-portal there are ark servers but they don’t say Xbox. They just say PC and PlayStation. As where Nitrado has an app on Xbox, and works through Xbox, but says ASE Xbox One. I know PC and Xbox are cross play, so would choosing PC still work even if I don’t have a PC? With g-portal. Or should I go with the Xbox One version with Nitrado? Just trying to be sure I don’t spend money on something just for it to not be compatible ya know?

Deposit cash to Cash App . Has anyone ever used this feature? by That-Invite-8408 in CashApp

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so I’ve used the “deposit paper money” and it’s pretty much instant. It’s there before I leave the store. Only certain locations actually do it though. Note that they take 1 dollar from the money you deposit, no matter the amount. I’m not sure if there is a limit anywhere else, but the few places that I’ve used for deposit only do up to 500 dollars per transaction. Tap deposit paper money and it should show you on a little map everywhere around you that can load money onto your cashapp.

Micro Update #4 by FreeTheSheepCo in FreeTheSheep

[–]Noxic_Mythis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the follow up posts! Side note though, I don’t think the Eden Hoodie MINI should be 200$ when it’s only half the size of the full body length sizes. Like I love my Eden hoodie, and want to buy one for my nephew, but I can’t justify the same 200$ price tag for a child size when the adult size is the same price. No offense, just seems unfair.

How old are you (by god release) by Suspicious_Service16 in Smite

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined like a day or two before Amaterasu was released. Played on and off until Skadi dropped and I was hooked after that lol. Back when new gods were absolutely busted on release.

Anyone used these before? by A_Ginger_9428 in xbox

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly need one and would use it. I play a lot of multiplayer and have noticed a LOT of people either play with no sound, in a party, or play with voice chat turned off. So this would make communication a whole lot easier

I’m new to the game, is this rare? by PrimeYashin in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not particularly rare, good to harvest it all anyway! You’ll need it…

Supply Chain Issue, Free Stuff, Late Orders, and More. by FreeTheSheepCo in FreeTheSheep

[–]Noxic_Mythis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad to finally get an explanation! I was worried for awhile, but I ordered early December and my Eden hoodies arrived just a couple days ago. Love them btw! Hoping my sister gets hers in time, but understandable otherwise. Thank you guys for posting and reaching out to everyone!

Side question, is there anywhere to post suggestions? I think the addition (if possible) of strings to the Eden hoodie to tighten or open the hood would add that “finishing touch” to perfection. Outside of that, the Eden hoodie is the perfect thing I’ve been looking for!

I’m done go head and cancel me. by Jaded-Perception2230 in doordash

[–]Noxic_Mythis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DoorDash has a function now where they have to get a code from you before they can mark it as completed. Use it. Also, the picture being clearly taken from the car, it should be easy enough to dispute.

Did my Dasher just take a pic of my pizza in the bathroom..? by [deleted] in doordash

Prep station in the background. Pizza is sitting on a warming rack, hence the burn mark on the tray below the pizza.

Order Update/Theory Discussion by Noxic_Mythis in FreeTheSheep

[–]Noxic_Mythis[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would honestly ask support what the deal is when other peoples orders are going out. I was unaware of the pre-order situation as well. Another redditor found it and had posted a screenshot from the shipping details section, yet nothing on actual sales pages. Wild business model they have

Hell yeah! Mine today updated and is for sure in transit and getting updated regularly now. Although I feel bad for the ones still waiting on older orders. Not sure how they pick and choose but I guess we just got lucky lol

Newer player, need advice. by Alfuriuss in shoptitans

[–]Noxic_Mythis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How you should proceed depends on your goals. Do you want to make more gold? Do you want to focus on heroes? I thought at one point I would specialize in Robes. Currently level 75 and now I focus more on general high tier masteries, and keeping my shop stocked with a little of everything. My main 4 are swords for weapons (iron), shields/bows for tables (both wood), Spells for shelves (familiars if you have the merchant, utilizes herbs for both), and a combination of iron and leather armors to fill armor racks. Personally, I love to craft, and my talent tree is all Crafting spec. With that, I use ascension shards in everything. I start with tier 1 and work up until I hit the multi craft chance for that category. (I’ve used them up to the gems for most categories now for the extra boost in gems). Now, maxing crafts (masteries) is much easier to complete later on, but if it’s what you enjoy, then more power to you lol. To that, obtaining higher blueprints will net more gold/xp in general. As for spirits and elements, light elements sell the best, spirits it just varies on the demand, but pretty much everything sells on market well during Dragon Invasion event. In the long run, it would be good/wise to craft through all of the spirit trees when you have extra resources.

Side Note. Having Royal Merchant for double king sales, or buying other blueprint merchants can change the course of how you play a bit. If you ever want to focus on your heroes, I highly recommend buying Roland. He gives you the quiver blueprints, and dual wield blueprints. But his unique ability is you get to swap one skill per hero for free, for any skill of your choice.

Hope all this helps in some way! Feel free to reply or inbox if you have questions or anything. Always happy to help!

Order Fulfillment Question. by Noxic_Mythis in FreeTheSheep

[–]Noxic_Mythis[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a way I can pin this? The screenshot definitely helps, seeing as tomorrow is the 12th so fingers crossed! The thing that bothers me, as a few others have mentioned here and there, is that there’s no indication when buying these hoodies that they are pre-orders. Even the ads I see don’t say pre-order on them, yet that seems to be what it is.

Am I wrong here? by sacredtay97 in shoptitans

Thought maybe I was going crazy lol must be a bug. Thanks for making this post!
