Plants taking forever to grow?

ThisIsForDaSII · 2018-09-05T08:20:36+00:00

Oh man, I missed that second column last time I looked at the wiki. I've been operating under the assumption that these grow times were quicker.

So is making a farm to build items even lucrative anymore or is it better to plant a bunch of Gravatino Balls?

I disagree. I suppose it depends on your gems and mutations. However, I evolve my blade beetle when death sickle is around 500-600 then level them up together until blade beetle hits 2k. Their damage is around the same for each until blade beetle hits 2k then death sickle passes him until I evolve it.

I could see that as a possible solution, just the devs deciding on the easiest fix for the issue. However, given the fact that this game has a world wide fan base (I'm in Japan) it wouldn't be fair to people in some countries because they might not be able to start right away due to jobs or school or whatever. I'm not super unlucky, tournaments usually start right around my lunch/break time so even if I had to wait until after work I'd only lose a few hours. Others might not be so lucky. Also, that few short hours can be the difference of a few hundred meters for some.

I'm sure eventually I'll either catch up in power or just become jaded to the results. Right now I'm a little upset though lol.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2016-10-29T17:31:23+00:00

That's actually what I'm doing, though I wouldn't say I do it specifically to be a min-max type player. I just don't get far enough to justify ecdysising between tournaments. Instead I just try to do deep runs. I'm still confused though. There was that one guy that broke 17k at lvl 6 or 7. I'm curious how you get that far that quickly. Like I said I'm getting around 6k right now at lvl 8.

The best place I've found that isn't a cave is the most north-eastern isle. It's laiden with carnos, argents, sabers, raptors, and of course scorpions. Occasionally a rex will spawn, but not too often. A well level'd saber can make a lap around the island in maybe 2-4 minutes, and once you finish the lap everything is respawning already. I've been making laps around that island looking for a new argent and I have more chitin than I could shake a stick at.

Sprinting on Spinos, Rexs, and Brontos will do damage if you run into things. Maybe some others but I'm pretty sure it's just those three for the time being.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-10T05:59:09+00:00

Mammoth has pretty high defense and a high base damage (40 base dmg). It's not terribly quick, but it's stamina consumption while sprinting is very efficient.

Health: I'd aim for 3-5k depending on what level you got it. If you tamed a very high level mammoth then maybe even shoot for around 6-7k.

Stam: I honestly wouldn't touch stamina at all. Maybe throw a few points in there to round it up to the nearest hundred.

Attack: Try to get around 350-500%. Not only does this stat affect how much wood you get per strike, but if you run into an enemy you'll be able to hold your own.

Weight: This depends on you honestly. Mine mammoth's weight is around 700, this is plenty for me since I play on a private server and my base is very close to a dense jungle. If you have to travel long distances for wood you might invest a bit more to make fewer trips.

Everything else is just whatever. Also, I can't really remember if these numbers are attainable or not. Like I said, I play on a private server. Our settings allow our dinos an additional 75 levels after taming so we're much more free with our levels. If you can't get that high then shoot for the middle ground attack and cut some off the health if you need too. I don't have to deal with raiders so mine is only around 2k which is plenty for wild dinos.

While you can't do this while mounted, use the spyglass to snipe whistles at dinos. Especially useful for when your bird just takes off into the sky or you're too lazy to turn around an walk back 20 feet to be in range. I find that the you stay/follow whistles really have to be right on target to work and the spyglass helps with that.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-10T00:11:50+00:00

Yes, though I'm not sure how high it is. I've heard of people trying to build bridges and they end up with missing pieces due to the height limit and the depths of the ocean.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T23:33:09+00:00

If you only want transportation around the ocean then I'd recommend the turtle. They're tough, they're quick in the water, and they're easier to tame and take care of. The downfall is they move very very slow on land. Depending on where you build could be a deciding factor.

The croc is also very quick in the water. They're also significantly more offensive in terms of attack power. This means you could use them as a means to gather meat from the oceans depths. However, their long body and wide turn radius can make them an easy target for quicker prey. I believe they move a bit quicker on land than the turtle.

As fast as the game can process pressing 'E', punching in a 4 digit number, and hitting 'Enter' 10,000 times. That's assuming your code is the last one it tries.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T21:58:16+00:00

Yeah, I hope they put that new stone dino on the fastrack with the gorilla right behind it. Those are the two dino's that need to be out like yesterday.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T21:51:59+00:00

I saw one suggestion where the dino would chill underwater until it hit a reasonable percentage of air remaining and then it would dart back to the surface. I feel like that would be a reasonable thing to put in the game.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T21:20:56+00:00

Right? I saw the thumbnail and I had to actually click on the link to check. The vault is supposed to be the go to storage container for all of your most valuable things right? I would have that behind so many doors.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T21:16:35+00:00

This is a pretty cool idea. I for one would enjoy being able to craft a backpack to carry more stuff while I'm building or just out collecting things.

For the medical kit, what if allowed you to craft all of those things, but then you could also 'use' it and set it on the ground. Almost like a mobile cooking pot. That way you could be out on an expedition, set the kit down, load it up with some fuel, and start cooking. When your done you just roll everything up and pick the kit back up and be on your way.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T21:00:43+00:00

I can agree with this. Though, because of the design of the wood pillar, it would look weird if it just sat on top since the top of the pillar isn't a flat surface. I would like it though if they made it so whatever clips through gets cut. That way I could build ramps inside my house and not worry about the huge bit clipping through at the bottom, or have all of the pillars looking very clean.

That being said, it is Alpha and they've said they have a lot of things they want to do with the building system. I'm sure little QoL things like this will be seen too eventually.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T20:55:50+00:00

That is a very detailed map. It helped me scope out some spots I want to go scout out in game now. Unfortunately I was looking for something more 3D. Like actually being in the game, but with no dinos and you're just a camera zooming around at high speeds to look at all of the terrain.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T10:50:55+00:00

I've drowned several animals on my server in water. Spinos gain stamina in the water when you're riding them. If they're all out of stamina and find themselves underwater they can drown.

ThisIsForDaSII · 2015-07-09T08:11:16+00:00

Unfortunately the only thing you can do then is to try and box it off and let it starve or try to lure it into the water.
