I would suggest that for combat you dont mix and match your armor early game, you wont see actual benefit to this until your in T3+ usually (for travel aphid slippers are amazing though). The ladybug armor is easily attainable with the ability to kite a stinkbug 40 feet to the red anthill in order to get a red ant club and then a little practice on perfect blocking with ladybugs this setup is a great jumping off point to learn the game.
@AstroNerdGames6 ай бұрын
There's slight benefit in mix matching tier two but i completely agree with your statement! I usually rock the ladybug armor and the spider shins for a bit until I get tier 3. When you play enough, you'll get to tier three easily so just have fun and enjoy the journey!

I'm not a new player, but I've never been a lab past the Hedge lab, as I tend to repeat worlds over and over and never make progress.. I'm proud to say the first time, I'm almost now to the pond lab. At this moment, I am playing on custom mode, but no game breaking changes.. in fact, mind breaking.. I like myself a challenge, so the only change I did was put the game on Whoa! Mode and set the creatures Health Scaling to 5X.. It's been very difficult, but I'm enjoying it and planning on staying in this world. The first ant alone felt like a boss battle, but now I'm once again overpowering them. Thank you for this video.

I just installed this last night on Xbox X, through Gamepass. The reviews were very good. I don't know if this is a popular game, a niche game or the "hidden gem", but only playing a few hours I'm hooked. A very well designed and thought out game from Obsidian. A real and pleasant surprise. Thanks for the video.
@AstroNerdGames5 ай бұрын
Hey no problem! And I would definitely say it's a hidden gem. I always got the impression that the devs really care about their fans and the game itself. I've been playing for almost 2 years and they have yet to disappoint. I hope you continuously enjoy the game and if you are ever looking for help, feel free to comment on any of my videos!

Played Early Access back then on PC and now bought it on the PS5. So much changed over the Years. Overall great Game but the Basebuilding Controlls with Controller are just a Pain. Same goes for the overall Controller settings. Why cant i just quick swap my Tools via D-Pad? Why do i have to open the Radial Menü for it? Its just a pain especially when youre fighting with enemies and just wanna use a Healing Item.

Honestly, after the spiky sprig carried me, I go straight for the club of the mother demon. You can use the assassin's armor for the bleed buff and you can stack it with any infection, poison, or venom weapon to add more damage over time. There are a lot of combos out there so experiment!

Noobie question: I’ve seen videos from other creators making “traps” for aphids and weevils using clover or crow roofs, half walls, stem pillars, and a single floor on the pillars. They place plant and mushroom slurry on the “table” they made from the pillars and floor and the next day 10+ aphids are trapped. Was this patched out of the game? I tried making one and only caught one aphid. Idk if it is not possible or if my build was just incorrect. I built this trap against a palisade wall to make it look good w my base on the stone near the juice box at the koi pond.
@AstroNerdGames5 ай бұрын
I haven't seen any patch or fix for this. Though, I don't have much experience. I know you must AFK for a bit for the trap to work. Try AFKing for about 30 minutes to an hour and see if there is an increase in traffic.
