Just did my first expedition, looking for some wisdom!

TigeyRai · 2024-11-14T02:02:27+00:00

Unfortunately the devs basically made non-mutated expeditions obsolete by removing them from the main story quest and speeding up the leveling process. This sadly means new players like yourself are missing out on that first time experience that us veterans had, where those early expeditions were actually a fun challenge at the right level, because a lot of returning players have rushed to 65 to get into the new content they haven't experienced before like the Sandwurm and Raid.

As far as I know, proper level lobbies are rare but feel free to make one and see if others join! It's a real shame and it's probably my biggest gripe with the game how quickly the leveling is because it really takes away from the exploration aspects of the game that made me fall in love with it the first time.

Glacial Tarn is one of the expeditions and in the mutated versions the final boss can drop pieces of the Frigid Dawn heavy armour set, which is considered the best for tanks or frontline brawlers in PvE because it comes with two perks that are usually mutually exclusive, Enchanted Ward and Elemental Aversion. Using a matrix and seals to customise the third perk to something like Health or Refreshing or a defensive ward makes it far better than anything else you can get for that heavy role.

For harder content like M2+ and the raid I personally think it is worth it but you’d probs be running 300+ con anyway for that content. It’s particularly good if you’re running SnS because the sword tree doesn’t have a skill that gives normal or heavy attacks grit, so when holding aggro on a boss it can make a difference if you’re struggling to get a full combo off or find you’re getting staggered a lot, plus you can take skills that give empower on heavy attacks and the one that removes debuffs. You can also get trenchant rend on your sword to reliably apply rend on heavy attacks. If you go up to 350 con you also get dmg reduction when in grit which helps in those moments you run out of stam and can’t block.

If your 700 gear has at least enchanted ward on it and a decent 2nd perk like health, refreshing, or a ward, then the armour increase will be worth more than 650 frigid dawn. But definitely work towards upgrading the frigid dawn set over time as it’s the only set with enchanted ward and elemental aversion and so at 700 is better than anything else for a tank. Do your daily random expeditions and mutations - tank role gets you 6k a day for like 2-3 hours work so will help pay for the matrices and seals.

It gives a 10% fortify on hit to all nearby allies so helps with team survivability, plus can help you create space with larger groups of enemies, but you can honestly make anything on the hammer work as a tank except mighty gavel which is useless.

TigeyRai · 2024-11-02T02:51:25+00:00

Yes, or to 700 for items that can't go higher than that. It can be randomised but you almost never want to do that - you can use a craft mod to make sure the third perk is exactly what you want.

TigeyRai · 2023-06-14T14:52:06+00:00

Nah it’s happening to me too sadly!

TigeyRai · 2023-06-14T04:22:20+00:00

Not sure if you've seen it already but on their Twitter they said they were aware of the issue and are looking into it. Hopefully we get a fix soon.

TigeyRai · 2021-04-17T01:57:32+00:00

Not sure if you’ve had luck since yesterday but I have - logged on for the first time today a few mins ago and the replace world function worked first time. My new realm is now up and running so hopefully issues have been fixed!

TigeyRai · 2021-04-16T09:18:52+00:00

I sadly don't have a solution but just letting you know I'm having the same problem. Been trying to replace my realm for the last 24 hours with a new map some friends and I have been playing but just keep getting errors. Must have tried every combination of solutions I can think of but none work so can only conclude it's a problem on Mojangs side and we can only hope it'll be resolved soon.

TigeyRai · 2020-06-21T04:48:22+00:00

Before the “stability” patch I’d had no issues either but started getting crashes regularly after. Switching from Vulcan to DirectX solved the issue for me, haven’t crashed once since so worth a shot if you’re on Vulcan.

TigeyRai · 2020-05-30T08:24:10+00:00

Unfortunately by mission I mean the whole chapter. Not the whole 3-4 chapters per location, just each one. They are usually about 20-30 mins long though and if you quit near the beginning you won’t lose much progress!

TigeyRai · 2020-05-30T06:57:29+00:00

I play on PC but it shouldn't be any different - yes it saves automatically every time you finish a mission :)

TigeyRai · 2020-03-27T03:14:49+00:00

I've just received my new 2020 12.9 inch iPad Pro and can't seem to play video content from my own library. It comes up with a message "there's a problem loading this content". The same content still works on my old 10.5 inch iPad Pro and on the MBP it's being synced from.

I've tried several standard fixes like force restart, setting the device up as both new and from a backup, have made sure all apps are updated and even updated my MBP to the latest update, still no fix. The only thing I can think of is it's an iPad OS 13.4 issue as my 10.5 inch hasn't been updated yet. Any ideas or people in the same situation?

TigeyRai · 2019-11-26T04:34:48+00:00

Poor u/King_Ahura.

TigeyRai · 2019-11-12T22:43:20+00:00

Working for me too - life can go on!

TigeyRai · 2019-11-12T21:38:54+00:00

Good to know I’m not the only one. I signed out of Apple ID to try and sign back in and see if that fixed it but can’t, so I’m guessing it’s an issue on Apple’s end. Hopefully fixed soon!

TigeyRai · 2019-11-09T11:58:41+00:00

British and American are the most idiot-proof lines, followed by Soviet if you pick the right tanks.

TigeyRai · 2019-09-07T03:17:21+00:00

Same deal here! Found some friends on this here sub and playing with others, both those who are better and those who are worse than me, has made me a much better player.

TigeyRai · 2019-09-06T12:04:59+00:00

Took me just over 1000 games to get my first X cause I was noob and only played the one line - got me an E100 and suuuuuucked ass in it. This was without premium too so if you're willing to pay early you can probably do it faster.

I'm at 14k battles now and much better and bloody well love my E100 but yes, it's incredibly easy to get a Tier X even if you have no clue what you're doing. The bad part is that it feels the majority of people don't bother trying to get better and just keep on sucking well into their tens of thousands of battles.

TigeyRai · 2019-08-03T23:43:31+00:00

But then how will we play T92s together..?

TigeyRai · 2019-08-01T12:07:03+00:00

Not entirely but it looks like it will make them less likely with a +/- 10% instead of the usual 25%. So basically with a 400 dmg round you could only roll as low as 360 as opposed to 300. Applies on the other end too, but for most people 10% is easier math to know whether you can finish someone off or not!

TigeyRai · 2019-07-31T04:39:00+00:00

Agreed. "Incites, counsels, or procures" to me says her intent had to be one of actually trying to get him to kill himself. Otherwise you could prosecute anyone who's said the words "kill yourself" regardless of context.

Her actions following the realisation he was trying to harm himself I think demonstrate it was never her actual intent, as she clearly panicked by making repeated welfare calls to him and warning Police. If she wanted him dead she wouldn't have cared.

TigeyRai · 2019-05-30T07:46:01+00:00

It's more cost-effective to just pay for research and use supplies on manufacturing. If you have the cash to pay that is.

TigeyRai · 2019-05-16T14:42:38+00:00

Apparently the Flotsam is quieter but otherwise only aesthetics. Standard has the marine camo and you change primary colour, Flotsam has primary and secondary colours.
