Forever Skies - Picking a Fight with a Bunch of Mantis [E5]

[@sunjewel63]

So much in one episode! Thank you . . . and yes, you do show us everything important or try to. Plus, the comments here and on discord fill in so much more. Looking forward to finding the second balloon core.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

A very exciting episode - especially dealing with the many bugs! A little reorganizing is necessary, I agree. There is so much to collect, it almost seems overwhelming. Nice work!

[@surtrplays]

Its not overwhelming if you just take it bit by bit. Thanks for watching.

Some possible tips: Armor does not help much and get worn fast, save the Chitin for other stuff early on as for backpack. Later on you should get a lot of Chitin. Repair gun can fix 5 chests, 3 patches needed to make 100 foam max load, so only fix 1 chest with patches is a waste. The room with the trade terminal have O2, so a waste to use a crystal outside it. Also should have the pet by now, that replenish O2. I have crossbows, standard for regular arrows and the upgraded for charged arrows.

[@surtrplays]

Awesome tips, thanks.

[@teddytiger5217]

Yeah, there is Wild Habitat and Dust Territory. Dust Territory needs the charged bolts to get into and they have the creepy crawlies that come after you inside the building. They have a lot more in them too.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks.

The upgrated crossbow is down there, it is to the right when you come up, in a container.

[@surtrplays]

Thanks. I saw that while editing.

[@AnotherJRB]

Regarding the upgraded crossbow: There is a container with a charged blockade in front of the building with the trade station, IIRC it's in there?

[@surtrplays]

I saw that I had missed it while editing. The next episode starts with that. Thanks.

34:27 I wonder if it wouldn't be worth making a second torch/headlamp so you can keep one on the charger while using the other and then just swap them out. 🤔

[@surtrplays]

The upgraded charger is so fast that it doesn't really matter.

[@SuperKbunk]

you should visit more wind turbines to find stairs and other stuff.

[@surtrplays]

I will do, thanks

[@leeshorey2063]

Is there a way to dismanteling stuff if you have made to many of something like the engines made them by mistake. Please let me know if I can dismantle them thanks.

[@AnotherJRB]

You can find a blueprint for a recycling machine that lets you break items back down into their components. It's in a tower that is relatively hard to get into, so you need to be fairly advanced in the story. But having more than one engine isn't bad, it makes you go faster.

[@surtrplays]

Like AnotherJRB said.

[@leeshorey2063]

Question for you, sir, do you have to worry about stacks in the backpack? I've seen things of stacks of five. Is there a way to, or do you need to split them up?

[@AnotherJRB]

Hold down control and drag the stack to move half the stack. I don't think there's a way to take just one item from a stack except by repeatedly splitting it.

[@leeshorey2063]

@AnotherJRB thanks for the reply great videos anyways
