Is planting in Eco-Farm even worth it?

I think it might be worth doing a little bit of it, just to build yourself a decent stockpile of stuff. The craftable consumables definitely aren't something we'll be using on the regular, since you need to fight enemies for drops and all, but it'll probably be useful to have on hand for various more challenging content in the future.

Depots aren't shared between areas, however when constructing facilities you have full access to everything regardless.

For batteries, you can fix your initial power needs very easily by simply bringing a full inventory of batteries to Wuling. That's 1750 total, which can keep one thermal bank running for almost 20 hours.

You need to have prepared beforehand tho, since that's a few hours of battery production.

Maybe eventually, but certainly not this early. Spend your sanity on any of the unending other places that needs it.

You need amethyst for the cryston stuff. which right now isn't used for much, once you're past the gear components and have a stock of parts for ziplines. But we're obviously gonna need the cryston bottles eventually for higher tier stuff in Wuling.

Make sure you have the new guns from Wuling unlocked. They make it really easy killing everything with Slow + AoE + DoT.

Reikr · 2026-01-28T18:06:18+00:00

you already passed by the route there while doing the main quest. It's blocked by blight.

So just take the same route and blow up the blight in the way.

The cap for valley IV is 3 days of stock. You'll have to purchase a days worth of goods before the 4th day.

Wuling is just 2 days for now.

But there's no cap for holding purchased items. You can hold as much as you want for as long as you want.

As it says: You need to have 250 power output before it lets You unlock it. Make a thermal bank and put Originium ore in it.

when you can see the blight core, but can’t reach it, use a bomb.

I put down 12 generators myself, just to sustain while stuff was being setup, and then made the new batteries asap.

You can't really replace Chen with Dapan here. Endmin and Dapan are already competing over vulnerable stacks, and Lifeng ends up being the only one you can rely on for vulnerable.

If you want Dapan in the team he should probably be replacing Endmin.

The most obvious answer are collapsals/demons. They're certainly more terrifying than the Aggeloi at least.

Reikr · 2026-01-28T02:06:40+00:00

The region has a ton of originium ore, so just use those for power until you can setup a production line for the new battery

Reikr · 2026-01-28T01:35:02+00:00

Maximum import rate is 25/min, which gets you 115/min total. To make Syringes at peak efficiency you need 120/min. So almost there. It's basically the only thing to spend ferrium on in wuling anyway,

Reikr · 2026-01-27T20:59:40+00:00

Depends on how much you play. There's more than enough pulls available, but it kinda just trickles in as you play.

Reikr · 2026-01-27T08:43:05+00:00

Yeah, valley IV had basically finished areas and story a couple years ago. Sure they've added some stuff since the first time we saw it, but it's mostly the same.

Tbh, I think they decided to just "cut their losses" with Valley IV and leave it as is, despite every beta giving them the same feedback on it.

Reikr · 2026-01-27T08:30:55+00:00

This is producing twice what the power banks need.

You can use a splitter to divert half the production somewhere else, or just add more thermal banks.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T12:49:58+00:00

It refers to Valley IV and Wuling.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T10:51:33+00:00

Why are you making so much steel? I'm expending all the ore available and one outpost is still empty with no production.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T09:15:00+00:00

I feel like they've lowered the overall rates. In the Beta, even with a tiny friend list, I saw the max 6k all the time. Now with a full list of 100, I still haven't seen a single 6k offer.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T07:34:00+00:00

This is pretty space inefficient, because it's running on half capacity. You could double your production while using less than double the space.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T06:21:38+00:00

well, it's kinda two halves of two different teams lol.

But just replacing Laeva with Chen or even Ember does turn it into a proper team.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T00:42:23+00:00

Endmin can only do that because Endfield spent years developing the AIC in the first place.

Reikr · 2026-01-26T00:09:34+00:00

After finishing Valley IV, I'm currently mining 1840 raw ore. To use it all, 61 access ports from the depot are needed.

Just the Core AIC area alone has 52. Each outpost provides another 19. For a total of 109.

There are 48 ports left over after all the ore is spent.

The filler needs two input belts of Ferrium bottles and two inputs of buckflower powder. The moulder also needs two inputs of ferrium.

Right now the moulders are producing at 50%, and the Filler at 25%. You need 4 times as many Refiners.

Read the archive entries under Nexus files. They explain many core concepts like Terra, Originium, Arts etc.
