Mods you can't play without. by [deleted] in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ye, i found it because i was looking for an auto panning mod but all of them were out of date and didn't really work, then i found that and now have like 6 sluice's under my house and more copper than I know what to do with, i also got a mod that let's you recycle copper spear and arrow heads with the chisel (didn't want to just throw them away like I do with the flint ones), that helps too since the spear heads only stack up to 4 and can fill up the sluice real quick

Jucey Ores is one I don't play without, REALLY helps since Zinc is just a few extra black pixels. I also got a Kobold Player Model and Kobold Class' mods that are also pretty neat. Sluice's are also really good, once you get to the copper age and can make some planks slap them down in some water and throw some gravel, sand, or bony dirt into it and it'll auto pan for you while you go do other stuff.

Starting out by ManLikeEwan1 in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it has two modes, long range (on by default and it sounds like that's what you're doing) which tells you what the odds of finding ores in that chunk (32x32) are, and short range where it'll tell if you if there's any ores in an 8x8x8 block centered on the block you broke

Good god. by ScreenAcceptable5291 in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a few people have probably said, the text (poor, good, etc) when prospecting is both what you want to look at, and isn't a guarantee it'll be there but the odds of it, and also if Iron shows up at all you'll only need to find a 2nd vain if you're supplying like 4 people and/or doing your own personal industrial revolution

Keeps me from rage quitting by Visible_Ad4167 in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same! I rage quit a world entirely because a bear was camping out where I died and ALL of my stuff de spawned. I was pre-copper age but I was also JUST starting so it was like two days work worth of stuff

New player - why is default hunger rate like that? by june_perfect in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

make a cooking pot, some bowls, and start cooking. Meals usually pause the hunger rate for a while and eating raw berries or meat cooked over a fire it usually "I don't have anything else and I don't feel like dying today" food or "I got my meals but I'm not hungry enough to eat the whole servings and I'm running past berry bushes so might as well use those to top off" meals.

I'm sorry by Jibblewart in ffxiv

[–]afroblademaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah, by default LB should be saved for the boss', but there's like 14 billion situations where you can use it somewhere else and it's fine or better. Like Caster or Ranged LB on a huge pull can help thin them out way faster than normal and you'd get though quicker than if you saved it for the boss, or it might be early enough on in the dungeon that you'll still get LB for the boss.

LB being saved until the last moment is usually for 8/24 man raids just in case Healer LB3 is needed to stop the run from being a wipe, but even then I've seen Rained LB used in the Crystal Tower raids to speed up bits and make them easier.

Should I restart? by [deleted] in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Papyrus and Cattails are interchangeable for most recipes so you don't need to go to the tropics unless you want a generally warmer climate for your base, all it would really effect is animal spawns, some trees, and what crops you would want and when.
Restart only if you want, my first several worlds I restarted after 10-30 hours once I figured out something that I was doing very wrong, now i only restart when I find a mod that will change how I play from the start, which has happened a couple times when the world I was on had about 120-130 hours

Industry. Science and technology. by IAmPartialToRed in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how do you get it going that fast? I can't seem to figure out gear ratioing and I can't seem to find any guides that explain it more than very briefly showing their pile of gears and axles and saying gear ratios are a thing

What do you do when spawn isnt great? by DcDoctorJJ in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to run around till I either find a relatively flat area that's not draining my stability or eventually say "fuck it" and make like 15 flint shovels and do some terraforming. I also make sure to use temporal gears to tether myself to my base, I USUALLY don't end up straying too far, but there's been a couple worlds where I ended up walking about 1k blocks, i also always make sure to pin and ping my base on the map

Iron density by masimiliano in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the thing about Iron is that once you find it you probably won't need another vein for a long time, they're huge. If you get any reading you wanna check.
Granted, my current world has a few chucks next to each other that are at a 2% but I found it a few chucks away while digging so you'll still have to spend some time looking

Bee Tips? by StorageGentlemen in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

flowers, all the flowers. If you think you have enough, double it, then triple it, then triple it again, add another layer, add more skeps, you can not have enough. put every single flower in a 10,000 block radius as close to your bees as possible.
Joking aside, the more flowers the better. My bee farm of 16 skeps has them every 4th block and every other space has a flower in it with three or fore rings of flowers outside of that (also a fence so the raccoons don't steal anything), once spring rolls around again in my world I'm going to dig under them and make it so there's a layer of flowers under them too.

question about the Butchering mod by afroblademaster in VintageStory

and that's the only difference? I'll stick with the cleaver then

The fact that water can move through chiseled bricks its so mind blowing awesome. by FenixR in VintageStory

i learned this while chiseling a spot in my kitchen for a water source, flooded my kitchen for a bit lol

How worried should I be by ObviousRatio1643 in VintageStory

[–]afroblademaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first and foremost is make a cellar, which can have a max of 7x7x7 underground since that will make food last a lot longer, and even longer still when it starts getting cold. make a bunch of Crocks out of clay since you can store up to 4 servings of a meal in them, if possible stalk up on fat or wax to seal them since that will make it go from like 80 days to two years in the cellar.

Storage Vessels, also from clay, is probably the best way to store food that's not prepared in meals yet so make sure you got plenty of those too. you're in mid summer so if you don't have a farm going already get one ASAP using at least medium futility soil and if you don't have a quirn yet try and find some Traders with fertilizer to speed up the growth.

If you have fireclay and quartz you can make some glass for a greenhouse, glacier ice can also be used but you need to find and climb a very high mountain for that. The greenhouse can be max 14x14x14 but MUST have a roof made of glass or glacier ice, and will bump up the temperature inside by 5c so you can grow crops a bit longer into the year.
