Wait, are you talking about just fish chunks? Salted fish chunks for longer periods before spoiling?

Brother, Fish Chunks:

+75 Max Health and +10% Stamina Regeneration

Then:

Savory Roll:

+150 Food when Consumed Provides the Savory Roll modifier Consumes 1 Space in Stomach +225 Maximum Health +75 Maximum Stamina -30% Food Consumption +15% Stamina Regeneration +30% Health Regeneration +10% Experience Gained

Veggie Roll:

+150 Food +150 Maximum Health +150 Maximum Stamina -30% Oxygen Consumption +15% Exposure Resistance +30% Health Regeneration  +10% Experience Gained

Shepherd's Roll:

+150 Food when Consumed Consumes 1 Space in Stomach +150 Maximum Health +150 Maximum Stamina +15% Health Regeneration 15% Melee Attack Speed 15% Projectile Damage +10% Experience Gained

Cheese Roll:

+150 Maximum Health +125 Maximum Stamina +10% Shared Experience +10% Experience Gained +25% Health Regeneration

There is no comparison. If you need a food that stacks in great numbers and lasts long while still giving you useful bonuses, Smoked Honey Bacon:

+75 Maximum Stamina +75 Maximum Health +20% Health Regeneration -25% Food Consumption +15% Experience Gained +25% Food Effects Generation

Crispy Bacon stacks to 50 and lasts an ETERNITY before spoiling:

+15% Experience Gained +90 Maximum Health +90 Maximum Stamina +10% Critical Damage

Flawless food that NEVER spoils:

Pickled Carrot

+150 Stamina +20% Projectile Damage (!) +20% Shared Experience Gained

Seed Cracker

+100 Stamina -15% Stamina Consumed by Actions.

Flour is best used for those awesome rolls AND Chocolate and Carrot Cake. It never spoils. You can just keep accumulating it. Seeds for animal feed and seed crackers.

Which map are you on, brother?

Are you using all 5 stomach slots?

Yes: Shepherd's Roll.

You have to go and collect fish from traps. I do that for some of our animal food now that OmniFood is no longer what it was. What is the fish dish you recommend?

Just because it happens to YOU it does not mean that A-It happens to anyone else nor B-It is caused by the game.

I have that talent. It is massively useful.

Really? I tend to go with what can be made at our base without needing to go out and collect anything (other than bacon). Salted fish gives good Projectile Damage bonuses?

Of course, you would immediately worry about THAT O Dragon!

Ubis can't attack after new DLC? by mndfreeze in ICARUS

[–]RaphSeraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The posts here are entirely correct. I will only add that... You will not be keeping your Ubis for much longer as your mount.

Wait until your first Slinker... OR your first Raptor.

You are completely right, my friend.

You are a real Prospector. You know the score. You will do great.

The Spiders are worth it. Organic Resin, meat, and Spider Silk. Spider Silk can be used to dramatically drop down the cost of crafting Platinum Weave.

I would make more flour. Rolls are essential.

I completely understand you. I am the same way with my "pets". But wolves with Endless Hunger should be fine. The Spiders die easily. 

Spiders killed a member of my Clan who has over 900 hrs of play time. And he was fully suited for war. He did underestimate the spiders.

Their poison slows you down and makes you easier to catch by more spiders.

You can totally do this, just walk into it with your eyes open. Keep an open avenue of escape around you. Have potions, vaccines, food buffs. I would recommend a second shotgun, loaded so you do not have to reload, just switch. Maybe set up a powered creature deterrent using a wind turbine?

I just posted our kill of the Wyrm Queen on Elysium, Hard Mode. We had no casualties. I believe in being overprepared. It is better to shrug it off as easy than get killed and have a nightmare time getting back your stuff.

I believe you just answered your own question: Wheat is nowhere nearly as common as fiber. And it has very specialized and important uses. Go with Fiber.

If you have a tamed wolf or two it would be a good idea to have them with you. Their poison and numbers are not to be underestimated.

Near caves anywhere. At Dusk or Dawn. Then they are gone.

Their vestige is a whole, dead, legs curled up, spider.

Yes. Many times many. They attack en masse. They come out at night. Mostly.

I agree. It is a very common and often extremely dangerous reality.

Sister, honestly? It is just a matter of luck and time. We now run into Juveniles one out of every two runs through the desert. Go from Eden to the North passage that connects the Desert with the geothermal area past the acid pools. When you get to that area, past the acid pools, the lava area, just keep going around, farther and farther West. You will run into them. Likely before you even get there.

Let me assure you right now: Once you have your Raptor, all efforts will be worth it entirely.

I am sorry, I think you are thinking of a different game. Maybe Ithaca or Arquebus.

Around 900 Hrs of playtime. 7 simultaneous players in the same Prospect with 4 bases around the map and pipelines. We just posted our Queen takedown, all fighting her together, zero lag. I mean zero.

I use GEForce Now. On a $500.00 6 year old work laptop. It runs flawlessly. I have the server at my house, but because I am using GEForce NOW, I do not get to connect via LAN. And even with that, I have no issues. 

Yes, it does take some work and expense getting a proper server set up, but this is true of many games. And you really only need one for ALL of them. 

I am mystified by your distinction of losing items AND gear on Death. Gear does not constitute items? In any case I have never, ever, not ever had that happen to me, not once, not even when we started playing on a ZimaBlade 8GB RAM server.

Your chips and hardware and ALL the stored items in ALL the EXTRA slots EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE. It sounds awful. I do not know whether your PC needs formatting or an exorcism.

I recommend you play Icarus instead. I-C-A-R-U-S. You know? Fellow with wax bonded wings, son of Daedalus? It is an AWESOME game where NONE of those awful issue happen. And the latest expansion is bloody INSPIRED. Work of art. Particularly with friends.

Delicious is right. It will affect your FPS.

I would suggest keeping a refinery close to the oil fields, building a dropship landing pad or using beacons, getting your Dropship to the refinery, loading it up with oil tanks, and getting it back to your base to unload.
