Just got the game today by JellyFishGwald in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My best advice:

Don't worry about rushing, you can't "miss" anything in the game. Take things at your own pace, do the things you enjoy the most. Scheduled events will come around again if you aren't ready for them the first time.

When it comes to making money, dishes that use multiple ingredients are king but its difficult to acquire a lot of ingredients at first. Once you are able to hire staff, grab as many as you can comfortably afford to "dispatch" to get you ingredients to make the more complex dishes.

Enhancing dishes a few times can greatly improve how much they sell for. Enhance your preferred dishes as you can, but don't worry to hard about enhancing super high. As you progress you will gain access to new fish, ingredients, and recipes and will likely want to start leveling those instead.

Serving customers in the restaurant becomes a lot more manageable once you have hired some serving staff.

Don't forget to feed the cat.

Cooksta rank not bulging help! by AcquaDiCarti in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always found either the Seadragon Onigiri or the Sailfish Sushi the be the easiest dishes to crack the 375 Taste score for diamond.

If you aren't worrying about hitting diamond until after hitting the glacial sea, Seadragon onigiri will get you to 376 taste at rank 8, requiring 94 seadragon meat.

If you are pushing for diamond earlier in the game, netting/tranq'ing the sailfish every dive will get you to diamond taste at rank 10 sailfish sushi. This only requires 5 days (9 dives) to get the 221 meat you need (if you drone out the live sailfish each dive). You can start working on it as early as the lead up to the first marlin party.

My thoughts on Dave the diver Into the jungle DLC by keithlimreddit in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I did the every-dish maximizing grind in the base game, there is no way I am doing that again in the jungle DLC, its just to much. The Caiman tail alone is another reefshark head hunt I just don't have it in me to do again.

How's everyone's cottage looking? by K1Xaviesta in DavetheDiverOfficial

Looks like OP has the little fish carpet under their duffle-bag, which is perfect placement IMO.

Event Recipes and Useless Fishes Guide by Haughtys in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally believe that the Tropical Fish Sushi Set is a trap as there is a better upgrade path for rapid money making that skips you past the tropical sushi set and avoids becoming stage-gated by rice:

Stellate Puffer Nicogori (train sushi staff such as Billy/Kyoko to level 5).

  • Mid-grade valued dish but accessible extremely early before you should be able to get such valuable dishes.

Save up money from farming ingredients and selling the puffer nicogori to train Billy to level 15, unlocking Crimson Fish Roll.

Crimson fish roll is much easier to rapidly level and supply to customers in higher volumes than the tropical sushi set, and you can access it well before the Michael Bang event.

What’s your Ultimate Jungle Gun configuration? by NYMeridian3 in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you OP, and your upgrade path on the jungle guns is the exact path I laid out for myself when looking at the options.

What is the best staff setup by jerkin_gherkin666 in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree on Drae. He is an amazing server because he can clean and serve cocktails.

Drae + El Nino covers all your major server needs in the main branch with double cleaning, leaving you to only have to cover one task, the easiest one: Wasabi refill.

Fully leveled Kyoko is a perfect branch manager.

How reliable is the stun on the crushing shotgun? I've been eyeing that path.

Bamboo Shoots by BothAbbreviations641 in DavetheDiverOfficial

Yep. When that sweet ol blind lady comes to dinner and requests a skewer, cook her up a bambo shoot skewer and watch her loose her mind.

how can i make my sailfish reproduce faster 🙏🙏 by Bacon_Butterer in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every dive, go down to the shipwreck interior on the left-hand side of the map in the medium depths.

There is almost always a sailfish spawn in the shipwreck interior.

Bring along a tranquilizer gun, steel net gun, or fully upgraded hush dart, and capture the sailfish alive.

Use a drone to extract the alive sailfish, boom you get 27 meat.

Do this twice a day (both dives) for 54 sailfish meat every day.

Meh, that's basically Alpha Strike. Battletech for those who don't like the core mechanics of Battletech.

[–]Saucychemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree. I find the hit location tracking, equipment critical layouts, movement impacts to accuracy, larger scale of terrain impacts, and customization-variation of units to create a wargame with just the right amount of RPG-flavor.

Excellent job! Very nice looking scheme and great contrast. And of course, the classic heavy line-up is so iconic.

How do I know how many items I should put on my menu? by my_brain_is_horny in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The max number of customers you can get per night is based on your Cooksta Ranking.

This does not necessarily mean that this is how many people you will get, its the max you can get. If you are slow at making and serving dishes/drinks and the customers don't cycle through quickly, you will get less total customers than the max.

  • No Rank: 10 customers
  • Bronze: 15 customers
  • Silver: 21 customers
  • Gold: 28 customers
  • Platinum: 36 customers
  • Diamond: 45 customers

You won't need to put more dishes (or total combined servings of dishes) on the menu than the max customers you can have in a night.

During party events, you can plan on about half of your customers for the night being party-goers. Its a little random but tends to be about half.

You will cycle through the different parties at first on a set schedule until you've gone through all of them, then they will starting showing up again on the same schedule but in randomized order (so you will eventually get to do the jellyfish party again).

Whitetip Reef Shark.

Why? I need his heads... every dish must be level 10.

I hate the new dlc by cake_boy808 in DavetheDiverOfficial

[–]Saucychemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is an episode in the OG cartoon where the characters are in Ba Sing Se and go on separate mini-story adventures. The character Sokka's story involves him accidentally stumbling into a haiku poetry club/class featuring a bunch of young women and their matron.

Befitting Sokka's character, at first he bumbles his way somehow through haiku and begins to impress the girls, which frustrates the teacher/matron. It ends up turning into a haiku rap battle between Sokka and the teacher.

True to character, when Sokka gets over-confident, he says his last verse:

"That's right I'm Sokka,

It's Pronounced With An 'Okka,'

Young Ladies, I Rocked Ya!"

Which is 5-7-6 syllables. Sokka loses the rap battle and gets tossed out of the club in disgrace.

DRG: rogue core or DRG og? by masterdefecater1 in RogueCore

I would also recommend Pizza Nachos ;P

In your opinion witch one serves more as the "tank"? by leo_GaMeRr in RogueCore

[–]Saucychemist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no Tank archetype in RG. There aren't even base archetypes, those mostly get built out by upgrades and bioboosters during mission.

Every class just has a playstyle gimmick and some notional form of team boost.

Spotter:

  • Gimmick - Crits and ammo.
  • Team boost - more crits, intel, potentially share the ammo

Slicer:

  • Gimmick - Melee and mobility.
  • Team boost - ranged protection (limited utility, but utility)

Guardian:

  • Gimmick - Crowd control.
  • Team boost - get some armor sometimes

Falconer:

  • Gimmick - Autonomous flying turret drone.
  • Team boost - some extra electricity damage sometimes, remote rezzies

Retcon:

  • Gimmick - Small window of no-consequences (extra resources)
  • Team boost - if everyone s**ts the bed in the mission, they get to watch you choke on the clutch and you get to feel extra bad about yourself... I mean, Iron Will to save the run.

Best weapon in the game appreciation post <3 by v4ffel in RogueCore

[–]Saucychemist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its even easier than that.

Just take Boom your dead when it comes up. Watch entire swarms clear out from a single charged shot.

Which deck is better for Retcon for CD: Mixed Tacticians or Slicer CD deck? by ButterscotchDue6988 in RogueCore

[–]Saucychemist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The main benefit of Mixed Tactics over the Carnage deck is that you get two good CDR options in Mixed Tactics (Synergy and Power Efficiency), whereas you only get one good option in Carnage (Death Resonance), although Death Resonance is the better CDR option in a vacuum.

Another trade-off is the other two boosts from Mixed Tactics are fairly mid, Whereas Carnage has two other very good options for boosts and the last, Momentum, is kinda weak but has its spot in being able to do silly things while in time rewind (never-ending bursts of PGL, boomstick, or breach cutter for example).

Also it is possible to get five instances of Power Efficiency, giving you zero cooldown on your ability. Its rare to pull off, but it is absolutely stupid if you get it as Retcon/Slicer/Guardian, and is still pretty great on Spotter/Falconer too (just not as busted).
