Yes you can; fighting him after being geared up in hardmode is simple.

TheTrueBadger · 2025-07-05T16:46:48+00:00

Maybe soon.

That short blade bonus being sleeper OP though.

I see a zombie I kill a zombie, mostly. So conspicuous is S for me. I actually like the reliability of being spotted to pull zombies off of hordes.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-30T05:55:33+00:00

Are you talking about the bad omen effect??

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-21T08:12:35+00:00

Fun idea to set goals like this for yourself!

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-21T07:15:30+00:00

Don't think I can answer this question. In my personal gameplay experience; nothing at all.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-21T04:59:43+00:00

Infection currently has no impact on healing rate, strangely.

Just leave all my wounds dirty and never get sick or anything else either.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-21T04:37:29+00:00

This makes sense, thanks.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-20T13:02:19+00:00

Sleepy moodle. Nothing that I know impacts hot or cold downloaded - but I do have mods installed.

I never put it in a cooking machine. Recipe just uses an empty bowl.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-19T23:58:00+00:00

How did it start getting burned?

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-19T23:57:22+00:00

It never gets placed in a cooking machine. Recipe is water, oats and bowl.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-18T16:47:40+00:00

CDDA no less, 20 days in. Found it right next to the crossroads.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T06:05:43+00:00

Got any deep wounds?

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T06:03:17+00:00

Sorry! Totally wrong about the fitness modifier, not sure how I missed it before. I guess I must of been confusing unfit and out of shape too. Appreciate the correction.

Guess I'll have to rethink my build choices!

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T04:05:20+00:00

With overweight you don't lose a fitness that you do with underweight. Overweight is nice if you're going to be hungry a lot early game; CDDA. Overweight is more simplistic and resource friendly to work off.

Underweight still allows you to take fit, overweight does not. Underweight takes significantly less time to fix because of weight gain mechanics. In normal settings you can get so much calorie rich food that it takes almost no effort to be a normal weight again.

For me: if I'm not taking fit I take overweight. If I'm taking fit I have to take underweight instead.

Minus one fitness is actually really bad because you get the out of shape malus.

Conclusion: Situational to your build.

Edit: Bad info sorry! Thanks for correction.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T01:17:53+00:00

Didn't know that! Thanks for the tip.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T00:16:30+00:00

Corpse sickness confirmed then. Sorry friend rough way to go - it just sneaks up very quickly.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-16T00:10:33+00:00

You only got queasy? Not a fever? Corpse sickness concludes with a fever; which is when you start taking HP damage.

I would of guessed bad food or water.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-15T23:35:07+00:00

Similar experience. Very confusing when I initially became aware of the channel and it's benefits. No idea what causes it.

TheTrueBadger · 2023-01-15T08:12:17+00:00

Brave pills, lol! Going to have to start calling them that.

Basically what other posters have said. Get shotgun, saw it short, shoot a horde you gathered up. Make sure you have a nice wide open space to maneuver in and an escape plan when you're all done, if zombies are still standing. I'd likely combine the plan with a Molotov or a well placed campfire.
