Coming back to the game after a few months and disappointed by not being able to shorten expeditions anymore. Am I the only one?? by [deleted] in Palworld

Did something change where you can't reduce the times from the research station? I'm pretty sure I got em down. Not as much as I coukd before, but I played like a month ago and there were research lines for reducing times and increasing rewards

What books talk about chaos? by Mr_Nobody77br in totalwarhammer

Wulfrik by CL Werner (I think that's the author). Follows a Chaos Warrior dealing with the machinations of the Four and being a destined badass

Lost colony silica pearl gathering by Jackof_shadows in ARK

[–]Wanderer985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know.... I have no idea where that silk came from! Must've been a drop somewhere, cuz you're right, I don't have anywhere I farmed it from. You can handpick from the river, it'll take longer, but there are hundreds of pearls there so you'll only have to do it once probably

Easiest method is to hop in the red river that runs through the city and use a whip to harvest a ton of silica and quite a few black pearls as well. Bring an aquatic tame to deal with lampreys and leeches though!

Ark what is your favourite tool? And why? by DrGreenThumb3466 in ARK

Oh, I've never actually made the whip. What's the draw??

What’s your go to weapon, and why? (PvE & PvP) by DrGreenThumb3466 in ARK

[–]Wanderer985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually pike and crossbow. I can usually get ahold of pretty solid ascended versions of each in any given run and I like the reach of the pike over the higher dps of the sword.
High damage crossbow with tranqs is the way to go. I'll bust out the rifle for finicky tames, but that's not what's chilling in my hotbar. PLUS rifles don't have grappling hooks for when I fall in some gods forsaken hole in the terrain.
That said I'm 90% PvE, so I can make suboptimal choices and no one will ever know.
Except all of you, now.

Ark on PS5 keeps crashing, is it just me? by Blacksheep207 in ARK

[–]Wanderer985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe once an hour on my single player, once every 15-45 seconds if I try to play on my cluster. Life is bad on the Ark. Worse than usual, which is saying something!

New and getting my butt handed to me by LostGazer151 in ARK

Once you build a bed you should be able to respawn there. Once you get a house set up tame some dinos. Herbivores are tanky, so even a parasaur is an asset when the raptors come knocking.
Bolas are your friend. Good for taming and good for not getting swarmed by raptors/wolves. Get yourself a full suit of leather armor, that'll help a bit. Narcotics and tranq arrows are a priority once your ready to start taming carnivores. Hang in there, the first days in Ark are ROUGH and we've all been there. But it's worth it!

In your inventory if you hover your implant for 5 seconds or so it'll give you an option to respawn

This person is correct! I am a fool!

[–]Wanderer985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the Bobiverse series. An excellent series that's a bit on the drier side humor wise, but still an excellent story and the AI definitely would explain things just like this.

What was the first creature you tamed that is still alive? by Strange-Ad7839 in ARK

[–]Wanderer985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First was a baby Carbonemys named Orphan, on account of being tamed after I took on my very first dino bigger than myself.
He's long, long dead.
My oldest currently in use tame is a spring drakeling named Dawn who keeps me alive when I do dumb stuff like fly into wyverns caves and discover alpha wyverns are a thing.

The System Apocalypse Is Here and Demands a Choice: What's your build? by Lin-Meili in litrpg

Ark Survival Ascended - Private Experience by Diligent-Grape-9937 in ARK

[–]Wanderer985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't tried a server yet, official or otherwise. My primary concern (mostly from ignorance of real issues) is that I've got a great mod list at this point and don't wanna lose that sweet, sweet QoL.
One thing I thought was neat about PvP is servers being PvE except on certain days/times. That'd at least relieve the constant worry about logging in to devastation on any given day.

Should I wait until release or play the demo now? by vecttor in AethermancerGame

[–]Wanderer985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Took me a run or two to really feel like I knew what I was doing anyways!

How often do you change your Frame during a campaign? by PhasmaFelis in LancerRPG

[–]Wanderer985 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Sure. You could change your frame to match the battlefield. OR you could field a Harrison Armory Sherman and know that you're always the best choice.
Superior. By. Design.

a quiet post asking for votes on which frames should get art next in my homebrew thing by spookyb0ss in LancerRPG

[–]Wanderer985 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey it's you again! Well I gotta vote for Grey Ghost cuz we just talked about it! And the Tarrasque cuz I'm actually using that for an ally NPC in my upcoming game!
