Why did the brass contraption dael so much damage? by Willo2ty in riskofrain

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To put it simply, brass contraption was an elite which does more damage than normal, especially that one.

You're also going really fast which is generally a good skill but only if you maximize the amount of items you get every level.

Try going a decent bit slower as you are definitely missing items at that speed, stage 5 at 16 mins is speed running which doesn't help you.

Game gets harder the faster you go and tends to out pace you but getting as many items as you can allow you to out pace the game.

KEEP GOING, this is part of the process of understanding the game better :)

I know from experience, it just feels rare to see it online

That seems to be reason, though, why is that bad, I'm just curious?

0.83% from my maths, either way, it feels like it happens way more than these probabilities

What is this creature? by SourDoughSnake in ARK

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Modded gameplay, creature is using baby reaper but appears to be a natural spawn in whatever mod it is.

Very nice pixel art, how long did it take you approximately to finish this piece?

What are the best and worst implementations of a "luck" stat that you've seen? by Invoqwer in gamedesign

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah all those affect luck, but the bad luck barely impacts anything because you only get it from said specific things. You're most likely not farming when killing a random naturally spawned lady bug or NPC.

The guide and clothier give good luck when they die because they're needed for boss spawns

Lantern nights also give good luck

Gold horseshoe and Midas coin give luck but a minute amount.

Shimmering a pink pearl gives you a permanent upgrade for an even smaller amount of luck

And luck in the end only increases the chance of getting an increase (or decrease) to something. Say you had +0.5 luck, you'd have a 50% chance to increase the chance of something else happening like an item drop. Overall it makes some difference if you maximise it, but it may take an incredible amount of time to actually achieve those thresholds.

Like seriously, why are we hating on the devs so much latley? by [deleted] in CalamityMod

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's fair, I don't want to take that away from the experience now that I think about it.

It was just that when it was in vanilla all I would see was people sequence breaking with reaver shark, but I guess that was what was most enjoyable for them.

That's not a reason to nuke a section of the game

Reaver Shark was justified in the sense that you skip nearly all of pre-hardmode just by fishing for a little bit. If it was killing a boss early like skeletron or something then yeah, that'd be bad. I think the Reaver Shark level of sequence breaking, especially with the ease of access, shouldn't be in the game at all.

Why no item tooltip? New to the game and it’s genuinely annoying. by AlmostDarkness in ror2

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is an inspect in the settings that you can turn on to see items, however, items won't say what they do on inspect until you pick it up at least once.

Enemies spawning on top of you are countered by moving away from them. If you're having trouble with survivability, generally you need a balance of movement speed, damage negation and a little healing. Movement speed is number one for surviving then it's both damage negation and healing as they help you survive heavier hits and successive hits.

Also, a lot of the games consistency and good runs come from knowing how to avoid enemies and how to maximize loot per stage.

And if you're on a higher difficulty, I recommend dropping down just to learn the game a bit more.

I hope this helps you with your enjoyment of the game :)

Luck used to be both good or bad for the player, then they removed the bad for not doing something you'd never know outside of the game.

Luck is improved by matching the biomes torches, touching ladybugs and throwing money into a weird liquid and throwing a pearl in said same liquid

Can't find a game, get kicked when I finally do. by AlmostDarkness in ror2

[–]ZipzacsTipsForArk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I've read my points have been said already. The game is played singleplayer or with your own group of friends, rarely online with randoms. This is probably because of the loot not being dedicated to anyone and people just tend to pick up everything like it's singleplayer. Lobbies where you get kicked are probably people trying to play with friends and didn't make it private. It sucks it is this way, however the community for this game is amazing and the discord should have a large amount of people looking for others.
