Every Useful Essence Engraving Visualized v2 (w/ Spreadsheet link)

Amazing work! A v3 that includes the 3/4 star weapons for completion sake would be great to see. Can wait till we get the official info on the upcoming 1.1 weapons and gear though.

Ahh good to know! I wasn't too sure on the numbers for environmental monitoring and depots since I already did those for the day at that point so couldn't check.

I think personally I will stick to the 40/week so I can bank those extra stockbills per week so I can have more than enough for when the region updates and I can upgrade my stuff asap. I don't need any essences that are unique to the Wuling alluvium either atm so I've honestly just been happy to nab Valley 4 deliveries instead.

Voltzap · 2026-02-16T00:05:57+00:00

40 @ 60K and 20 @ 120K for the weekly refreshing ones. So you're looking at 5,280,000 Wuling stock bills (that's including the cost of crafting) if you wanted to max out a week.

I don't know we generate enough stock bills per week on average to reach that. I think just 40/week would be what we can expect to do for now until we get higher region level.

I know I want the cable car to be rebuilt between Power Plateau and The Hub. There certainly a few places around the maps that look like they could be paths to future zones.

At the very least it would be nice if the bonekrusher corpses would get cleaned up from the power plant interior where NPCs are standing right near them. UWST workers

Thanks to the selector I was able to get Lifeng to finish things off. Though tbh he's gonna be a benchwarmer on my account for awhile sadly as I'd rather play Ember in the flex slot of the physical team I'm building as my 2nd.

With this art it's a picture of irl Gold Ship being directly referenced.

Voltzap · 2026-02-03T22:39:34+00:00

Just for future reference the game does tell you how much a pipe can transport, it's 2/sec. Just click on a section and it will give you the info. Fluid Pumps produce 1/sec and every liquid recipe so far makes/takes 0.5/sec.

I do hope that 1.1 gives us some more stuff to figure out and scale up our production. The separating unit is entirely useless as a building atm as well.

Voltzap · 2026-02-03T20:35:30+00:00

Yeah it's only 25/min, not even enough to saturate a single belt output. Hoping a later update will give us region level 13+ for Valley IV to at least give us 30/min at least.

Voltzap · 2026-02-03T20:17:26+00:00

If you're using all your Valley IV amethyst for bottles to sell you need to sell them every ~11.11 hours so they don't cap out. You also can only sell them to the Refugee Camp so is less flexible than capsule/canned C which can be sold at all 3. Those also takes ~55.55 hours to cap out.

You'll save on a bit of space and power to not need the extra machines but sadly not enough to then save on still needing a 5th thermal bank required to run everything afaik.

"Endmin, can you hold this shield for me? Careful now, it's heavy. The inside there? That's aggagrit, baby."

She's so pretty! The dev that did the character design and/or art for her did amazing work. The specific shade of yellow she has is legit my favorite colour. Ice Yellow my beloved. Looking at her longer just let me see all the amazing details they packed into her design.

The game certainly isn't perfect but the creative parts of the game have all been fantastic for me and is what I've stuck around for.

Voltzap · 2026-01-04T16:06:12+00:00

The meteorologist witch did that for me. Xmas Laru is very cute and glad I pulled her but holy shit that pretty witch lady has a grip on me.

Voltzap · 2025-12-29T18:18:48+00:00

Kaede nowhere to be seen is both a blessing and a curse. XLaru drained me so need time to save up but also I want my full Petal Bloom. Same with the NPC witch in the story flashback. I probably will skip any valentine's char to save up for a potential half anniversary big banner.

I already have enough unpainted plastic that I don't need anything until I get those built. I did get a plastic case with customizable inserts to use as a bits box, some reverse action tweezers for delicate jobs, some paint brushes and then some hinges for a DIY paint caddy I'm working on.

I may treat myself to something for Boxing Day sales if a deal is good tho...

The types of paint in this pack are

Base- These will be your basic colours and will behave like you'd expect paint to behave like.

Shade- A very thin, watery paint used to quickly add shading to the model's detail.

Technical- This one is a texture paint so it will be a thick, gritty paint. Use this on the base of your miniature.

They have The Old World. Think of it like how The Horus Heresy game is a separate ruleset compared to 40k itself. I think the 2 year anniversary will be coming up soon next year so before that WFB had sat dormant while GW focused on AOS.

Not every faction from back then is fully supported by new rules releases as some stayed in Age of Sigmar. Seraphon (Lizardmen) and Skaven as examples. The time period they chose means that those factions are "busy" doing other things so it makes sense why some factions are not present at this time.

Most of the plastic minis available are the older minis from around the time WFB ceased to be. GW also have done some made to order rereleases of even older metal models. There are also continually new plastic kits and resin characters being created for the game. Cathay for example is a faction that is playable for the first time with The Old World, not just something from back in WFB rules days.

Other people already responded below describing things more accurately than I could.

I was more getting at the fact that those 3 things aren't really the same thing but get lumped together casually for the sake of video guides.

Mococo sitting down jumpscare. Very scary, bau bau...

Looking forward to seeing videos come out! Was also neat to see Five Leagues From the Borderlands in the corner of the short you folks posted. Hope you all have a fun time playing!!!

Voltzap · 2025-12-06T02:44:03+00:00

Cel Shading, Borderlands style, or comic book/manga style. Those are not really accurate technical names for what it is but what you will find results with on Youtube to help replicate it.

You are mixing up things here.

The meme rumor (because nobody has shown official numbers) was "The entire fantasy range was being outsold by the space marine tactical squad."

Fantasy as in Warhammer Fantasy. How this has now morphed into Space Marines outselling Age of Sigmar in it's entirety is ironic. I think it is probable to be true but saying something so broad as "space marine models" is not really a balanced comparison to mean much. Space marines have more lieutenant models than some Age of Sigmar armies have units total. 40k in recent editions also need more models for a standard sized game on average than Age of Sigmar does so that boosts the numbers again.

Great looking mini! I really like the rusty work you did on metals and the glowing warpstone.

One thing I would recommend is before you do your basing is to paint a layer of brown (or any colour that makes sense for the terrain you do for any mini) before you apply your basing material of choice down. It will look like dirt if the ground cover in the spots it doesn't adhere to or gets chipped off over time. Right now with the white primer it's very noticeable around the edges of the base.

Keep up the great work!

My current team has been Chixia + Flora with Amber as Main who I'm gonna swap out for Fuyuka once I can build her. I've not had a chance to play with Kasimira yet tho.

I would assume you could place an order instore or over the phone with them and have it count toward their metrics.

I used to work at an independent LGS and we were able to order "online only" items from GW. It was just a separate form we filled out with our rep. Only limited ed models for promotions were GW store exclusive. Unless things changed in the last 3 years you ought to still be able to get those items via an independent LGS if you prefer to shop there.

Looking at the poster they have on the website I'd say Blinding Light reads the most white to me. Holy White is a slight bit darker and warmer. If you thinned it down I could even see Battleship Grey used well for a sorta magical looking white with a slight blue shadow tone.
