a few things Gourmand has a exhaustion mechanic, and will need to rest after moving around too much, and he deals 0.3 damage with spear when exhausted Gourmand deals triple damage with spears (when not tired) which is enough to oneshot most lizards, he can also crush creatures by falling on them, and when he slides into a creature he stuns them and flips them over. Gourmand can eat bodies of creatures. And also whenever he goes -_- hes tired

hints: Gourmand can eat more than you think. The icons above your food bar are things to eat for hid ‘food quest’. Eating all unlocks a new ending Crafting has many things you can make. If you have food, you can spit out random (pre set list) items by holding nothing and holding eat. Gourmand is heavy. Gravity is your weapon.

Some quick tips that might help you through this campaign: - Gourmand has the strongest spear throw out of all the slugcats, but you’ll get tired after throwing just one, so make your shots count! - If you jump/fall on creatures from above you’ll crush them and actually deal damage (you can basically Goomba stop lizards it’s so funny) - you can eat dead creatures, so next time you kill a lizard take a bite! - the main goal in this campaign is to eat as many different foods as possible. The game keeps track of what you’ve eaten by adding the icon above your food bar.

[@invadernav3422]

My mother isn't a big fan of creepy games, but she loves watching Quin with me and she ended up loving this series, it's been really fun

[@marino7544]

Some pointers: - The directions you should go for gourmand are similar to survivor. - Crafting can be extremely op - Like you already kind of figured out, try to use your absolute heft to your advantadge in combat! - Gourmand is a food connaiseur. He can eat dead creatures of all sizes.

[@Chromicate]

After you beat Gourmand, you unlock a new ending for Survivor and Monk. I'm not gonna spoil it, but I think it's better than the ascension ending. So if you're curious you wanna replay it at some point you can choose the new ending :D

[@borb5353]

pro tip: if you get bitten, you have a second to throw a rock or a spear you are holding to free yourself. it is indicated by the delay you drop your items at. if u pay attention u will notice that it takes a second for slugcat to drop their items after getting bitten. but this only works when you arent killed immediately on the bite (predefined chance per creature that is biting you) but gourmand's superpower is never being bitten lethally cuz he so chonky

[@S1ilver2]

Ahhhhh i love the thumbnail its beautiful. Also i think if i remember right you can eat most creatures after they are dead. you can also crush things by jumping on them from high places

[@zeke_the_robot]

Btw, his spears deal more damage since he puts all his effort into it, 3x more then a normal spear from survivor

Hey quin, one thing about gourmand, his entire campaign revolves around eating everything in an order, the list of things you gotta eat is in the bottom left corner above the rain meter, also gourmand can eat bodies by grabbing them and holding the eat button but you can only do it once per body I think, also the list updates with a new thing you gotta eat everytime you eat the previous item, hope this helps!

[@MatoMeatball]

GOURMIE MY BELOVED... A very important tip for Gourmand, a lot of the elements in that campaign make more sense if you are made of some things from the hunter playthrough. Particularly, hunter is a carnivorous slugcat, meaning they can eat larger prey like lizards, but bats and plants only give them 1/4 of their usual nutritional value. Gourmand is an omnivore, which means he has a diet similar to survivor/monk AND on top of that he can eat larger pray like hunter, but at half the nutritional value (which is still a lot!). Additionally, before downpour came out, hunter was the campaign to introduce more difficult and aggressive creatures, like the vultures with harpoons (known as king vultures), red lizards and the cyan lizards (the black ones with cyan elements that can leap) which in survivor and monk are only possible to appear through a mechanic called lineaging (basically if you kill a creature a lot on successful cycles, it has a chance to instead become a more difficult creature to deal with, like turning pole mimics into monster kelp). If you're getting into artificer in your next video, you should know they are functionally more similar to hunter than other slugcats in terms of basic stats and diet, and their playstyle is VERY aggressive.

[@Scrubidum]

19:40 You can indeed bodyslam the lizard! You just gotta use gravity and land on the creatures from above

The Gourmand is the Apex predator. Able to eat everyone. Food is the least of concerns for everything that moves can be consumed. (except the small spiders apparently)

[@jayfox4291]

Also you unlock something pretty neat if you get the FULL correct ending to Gourmand. Something only found in Survivor, Hunter, & Gourmand’s campaigns. Also a lil something extra for Monk & Survivor even without FULLY doing that.

[@pex_20]

It's a pretty good rule of thumb for every campaign if you're not sure what to do to just go see what Moon and Pebbles are up to! They usually point you somewhere

[@ghoma8336]

There is actually an easter egg related to the survivor starting spot btw, you'll just have to look for it at the VERY end of the campaign in the last area

[@DeathByManchineel]

Little thingy for Gourm: see the stuff that shows up when you eat sometimes? Find the things it shows you that you haven’t eaten yet. Do it. Do it all

[@Scugzerker]

Summary of basic Gourmand abilities: Hold up + pick up/eat to craft while holding 2 different items to craft something new. Hold pick up/eat with nothing stored in the stomach and empty handed to regurgitate a random item selected from a list (batnip highest chance) at the cost of 1 food pip. Slide range greatly increased, immune to spears while sliding, hitting a creature deals 0.25 damage and briefly stuns Rolling distance greatly increased, immune to spears while rolling. Hitting a creature deals 1.0 damage and stuns 2.4 times longer than slide. Spear throw deals 3.0 damage. Throwing a spear during a pounce greatly increases forward momentum. Gets exhausted after performing any action (other than eating/idling). Throwing a spear instantly exhausts Gourmand, with an enemy nearby (lizards/vultures e.g.) the chance of exhaustion increases basically resulting in getting exhausted much quicker (can set in after throwing only a rock). Your weight allows you to tank most lizard bites (not instantly killing you - except for red and train lizards) and reduces odds of a spear being lethal by 15%. Jumping on top of a creature from a certain height deals 2.0 to 20.0 damage (depending on distance). Edit: 14:22 Oh yeah! I've watched Tiny Alien too. Finally a monk related meme/animation that takes it seriously... Made me cry too. I have a list of ~170 Rain World memes/animations. I could set it to public if you want to watch some. Also without special abilities (enhanced agility and/or explosive jump) you cannot get there (15:00) without using dev tools. You CAN however reach it through the other side, but you have to go through Outer Expanse. For that you need to visit Pebbles first to open it.

[@prehistoricblackroast]

My man really managed to tank the run with Gourmand without even using the character's slam and roll WHILE being at a disadvantage because of the exhaustion mechanic. Huge respect.

[@irenarenci]

14:18 omg Tiny Alien is such a cute and well made animatic!! Do be carefull with watching some animatics as they can be a bit spoilery, especially since you haven't done all the slugcats yet. For example, there's an absolutely gorgeous animation named Go Go Ghost Ship that's about 5 Pebbles. And it contains spoilers to literally ALL the slugcats lol! Even monk and hunter which aren't considered downpour slugcats! I highly recommend that animation eventually tho

[@QuinBoBin]

Yeah When watching them if I see anything I don’t recognize I stop immediately lol

[@AxtonTheObstagoon]

hey Quin, did you know about the reputation mechanic? basically, Scavs and each type of Lizard react to you differently depending on your reputation with them. it's increased by feeding, trading, and saving them from predators, but decreased by attacking them, even if the shot misses. with high enough reputation with Lizards, feeding them has a chance of taming them, meaning they follow you around and help protect you, but each lizard type has their own reputation, meaning feeding a Green Lizard does not help raise the Pink Lizard's reputation

[@QuinBoBin]

I actually did know about it! Just not very good at it lol

[@AxtonTheObstagoon]

@@QuinBoBin that's alright. Also if you replay Monk's campaign for the new ending that Gourmand unlocks, he starts with high reputation, so it'll be easier to take advantage of it with him

[@uberoh]

isnt the reputation system global for all lizards? first time hearing this

[@unpopularthoughtsofmyown]

It is actually global. If you feed a ton of food to one lizord, others might become friendly as well. Also if you've tamed a lizord and don't feed him from tie to time while killing his brethren, he'll bite you.

[@AxtonTheObstagoon]

@@uberoh i must've misread the wiki then because i thought each type of lizard had their own separate reputation

22:20 That is the oddest path I've ever seen anyone going through as Gourmand LMAO Shaded Citadel, Industrial Complex, Drainage System and Gutter?! It seems great

[@Ahlnie]

That reaction to being set in Shaded is very relatable. There's actually a couple of creatures that can learn to tolerate being around you if you're nice. All of them are hostile otherwise and one of them is even dangerous. Artificer's essence is pain and fury. I had suggested immediately going left in the poll discussion, but there's actually a quick tutorial for controlling her that I had forgotten about which you get after staying in a shelter to the lower right.

[@leaflyndrawsstuff]

YEAAH BIG BOY TIME!! I think gourmands campaign is the most vague on what you need to do imo- As a general rule of thumb for this game, checking in with your robot friends gives the most direction along with helping you understand exactly *when* the events are taking place if you get what I mean, it’s never a bad idea to go say hello :> So gourmands a bit special in combat, big man does 3x as much damage with a spear as survivor does, but he’ll get tired after any spear throw and need to take a breather as you’ve seen One mechanic tip that might be helpful is if you have a rock or spear in hand when a lizard grabs you, you have a few frames to throw it AFTER the lizards grabbed you and let you escape- learned this by panic hitting throw- also since gourmands a big chonker lizards (with one exception) can only stun you when grabbed and can’t just straight up kill you immediately like what sometimes happens in the other campaigns

[@LordTelperion]

21:38 That was THE MOST DRAMATIC and AMAZING escape from the rain! Hahahah! Good job buddy!

[@eltonbokgren3398]

The hunter slugcat has unique and harder enemies in his campaign and almost all of the downpour slugcats have these enemies as well. Speaking of hunter and gourmand there is a secret if you lose a hunter run (hunter has a time limit to complete its mission) and go to where the hunters death occurred as gourmand…………………………………………………..

[@rexenowner]

YOO YOU LEARNED HOW TO DOWN SPEAR that's epic to figure out on your own Downpour introduced a few new parts/routes in existing areas; you've already found The Gutter. But there is also one whole new region added in general, see if you can find it :) (My hint is, you can find it from Industrial or Sky Islands.) And about spears, you cannot craft things with them as Gourmand. That's not to say the same on Artificer, though :) 9:26 that's a cyan lizard, they silly :D and also have some of the coolest looking tails. They are also sometimes called Leap lizards (or leapzards) Actually, all lizards look a little different! It's cool to see their differences, like how some blues have really fluffy tails, or bunny ears, or how greens have spines, or how others have gradient tail tips. It's just kinda cool. Tip You Likely Already Know: It's a good idea in general to eat the yellow flowers, since you've probably noticed it helps with the karma stuff. Actually... you can use those in crafting. You can use almost everything actually (again, not spears), but karma flowers specifically can make something insane if used right :)

im commenting this before i forget you can play the other slugcats in any order you want, just be aware: - saint is meant to be the last - rivulet is much cooler after spearmaster - as artificer, theres a place you cant go to but it looks like you can, while that same place can be accessed as spearmaster because of timeline stuff, so either play spearmaster before artificer or be aware you cant get to a place that looks like you should

[@QuinBoBin]

im not gonna lie i really want to play as rivulet it looks so fun its gonna be difficult to not go for that one first

[@adamixziober]

@@QuinBoBin honestly respectable

[@TheCac]

i dont know if this is an unpopular opinion but i think that spearmaster before rivulet isnt that cool, and i think the impact that it does serve for some people is negated by the back to back heavily combat focused campaigns (if theyve played them in order of course) whereas rivulet is a nice "breather" (and more leaning towards my opinion also just the most fun to actually play), and honestly main reason is that i think going directly from spearmaster to saint is so unbelievably sick

[@Starsoul_]

He looks so rotund, so... appetizing. And if I think that, so does literally anything else in this game, be careful Quin.

[@Justyouraveragechaosenjoyer]

YAYYYY HE'S GOURBING! :] Take your time playing through the campaigns, enjoy them as you did survivor! And I hope all your other games are fun too! My biggest tip for gourb is his little quest! Two things you need to do: 1. You need to visit Pebbles! Gourb has a slightly different mission, and Pebbles is necessary to complete your journey. How you get there doesn't matter, but don't forget to eat a neuron fly! 2. You see the weird items above his food bar? That's his shopping list! Gourb is an omnivore and can eat animal carcasses (Big centipedes, lizards, even vultures!) so you can actively hunt for food- and if you want to complete his task, you will need to. Eat everything to find out what he needs! Completing his shopping list unlocks something special, so take his adventure as a food tour of rain world :] (P.S.: You can find his shopping list online if you'd rather have a guide. Whatever helps you enjoy the game best!) Other gourb tips if you're interested! Gourb's body is a weapon! You can jump on enemies to crush them, roll into them to steamroll them, or slide into them to stun and injure! Gourb has very low stamina. When he's eepy, he closes his eyes. The fastest way to replenish his stamina is by laying down! He recovers stamina slowest when walking, second slowest when crawling, third slowest when standing still, and fastest when laying down on his belly. If you are in danger but gourb needs to recover stamina, you can cheese it by pouncing away from danger! So long as you don't do any other directional inputs aside from the jump button, he'll still recover stamina while you gain distance. ALSO: LOW STAMINA GOURB DROWNS QUICKLY. Do not go under water if he's sleepy! Gourb is a very big brained slug cat and has a huge crafting table! Mixing two different handheld items will create something new, and there's a wide variety of things he can make. Lastly, Gourb is also an infinite pocket of random goodies! At the cost of a food pip, you can hold the eat button with nothing in your hands and Gourb will spit out a random item. These items are mostly his crafting basics, though occasionally you'll get another item needed on his food list or something extra useful like a pearl! Good luck on your adventures!

[@The_Big_Boof]

Really hope Quin will stream one of his downpour playthroughs. His streams are always such a joy to watch.

[@InsertarNombre1990]

YEEES YOU PLAYED THE DLC WOOHOOO. Also, big hint for the gourmand, you can kill things not just faling on them, you can slide and roll on them too. Also, he has 3 damage instead of 1 when he's not tired. And also, the world only changes as rivulet, artificer, spearmaster and saint.

[@Not-To-Scale]

Great to see the you enjoying the dlc scugs so soon. Some notes on gourmand: if you crouch and are still when he is tired it takes less time for him to recover, the crafting tree is huge(you can even make large bombs) but you can't craft with spears, visiying the iterators is always a good goal as they often help progress each campaign! Great vid as allways can't wait for more, also the rainworld art community is incredible there are so many massive animation progects and skilled people!

[@mozirellaaa]

omg I LOVEEEE the tiny alien animation I rewatch it so much and listen to the song so much because of that animation and by the way quin, do avoid watching animations if you want to be spoiler-free, even some of the sillier like shitpost animations have the possibility of having big spoilers I know it's hard I still haven't beaten the saint and I've been itching to watch rain world animations I have so many saved to my watch later 💔

[@Trinitex]

i just realized, this is your first time meeting the hard mode enemies! meet: -the gun bird (bird with a gun) -the dubstep lizard (does backflips) (i love these guys so much even if they kill me a lot) -the lizard powered by pure rage and hatred (AAAAAAA) and two more funny bugs you haven't met yet (you will hate them :D)

[@snsnsnsn2922]

I don't know why but whatever Quin says in the Rain World videos becomes poetry

[@pacal6484]

General hint on every cat: the head of the lizards block spears, but if you hit them on the head with a rock, they get stunned, and turn around if they can. So with a rock and a spear, you throw rock first, then spear soon after to their body, then run at them and keep stabbing them with spear.

[@QuinBoBin]

Yup yup! I know about that

[@martijnbouman8874]

Since you were asking for pointers: Try to eat as many different foods as possible and try to fill up the icon bar in the lower left. Also, in all campaigns, trying to talk to Pebbles or Moon may be a good idea.

[@snolls105]

gourmand is great because he looks like my friend's dog. ah yes, downpour's love of starting the player in shaded citadel. I had a nightmare where a King Vulture shot me through a Mario pipe. Banger dream. Gourmand was the second campaign I played. After survivor, I just wanted a chill time where I consumed everything. "Favorite area in the game but I don't want to look it in the eyes." Same tbh. Gourmand's campaign does take you to a unique Downpour area that is one of the places in Downpour to rival the Five Pebbles area. So, definitely something I'm looking forward to you seeing. Oh yeah, I love having a big food bar too. I usually play the game with mods that let me increase my food bar since it feeds my desire to consume everything and makes the game slightly harder without being too suffer. 9:29 - cyan lizard my beloved

[@gorec8505]

Cool! Heres a fun fact and tip gourmand is actually the only one to so .....3!

[@MatthijsvanDuin]

2:48 After hibernating you were only one karma level too low, so you could just have gathered some food and hibernated again to go through the gate. Or, a more clever strategy in this particular case is to gather that one berry that was right there and force-hibernate (starve) to get the required karma level, since on the other side there's a popcorn plant you can feast on and a shelter so there'd have been no downside to starving.

[@QuinBoBin]

Yeah but I wanted to visit the start of the game anyways to see if anything was new

[@that1sprig]

23:00 you’re actually so right I’m flabbergasted that you made it lmao

[@rururiemn1941]

Congrats on the Chonky Boi! Here are some tips (and tricks!) in mostly random order to help you out. This post is very long but shouldn’t have any spoilers unless you count advice. -General stuff- For differentiating your right and left hand (AKA which object will be yeeted) look at The Creature head-on and know you’ll always use the thing on the left first. Getting down and holding grab will drop this item first. Even if you commit a scav murder with no witnesses **they will know**. It will count towards your general (lack of) favor with them, and will become Super Bad for you if it gets low enough. You can earn favor back by giving them things, saving them from predators, and paying ~taxes~ tolls. Idk if you haven’t figured it out yet but basically whenever you have a spear in hand scavs see the equivalent of a chimpanzee with a knife and act accordingly. Drop the item and/or lay down to show you mean no harm. If you have a history of scav murder they’re more likely to spear you anyway tho. Unlike real poles, pole plants don’t show up on the map. Best way to check. -Gourmand-centric- Gourmand can eat basically any killed creature (lizards, lantern mice, big spiders, etc). You can in fact turn nightmares into nutrients. This is not unique to Gourmand but I’m not spoiling who else can do it. Gourmand has a quest to discover the delicacies of this foreign land, as seen by the icons above the food pips. There is no exact order you have to complete it in just eat stuff and see what happens. One of them is literally the scariest thing in the game. Good luck :D You are heavier than the average scug which means that you are harder to grab by some enemies, but not immune. Gourm’s fat ass also counts as a weapon as you can deal damage and even outright kill things by falling on them. Gourmand’s spear throw hits like a truck but you will be out of breath for a short period. Tired Gourmand’s spear throw hits like a stick. Popcorn plants are great for experimenting with Gourmand’s unique crafting mechanic since you have all the food ever to test stuff. As a free tip, try mixing a rock with a firecracker plant (the black/red one that makes a bunch of noise when you throw it). Hope these help

[@QuinBoBin]

Thanks for all the tips!

[@chompkin116]

Fun gourmand biology fact! He is the smartest and CHONKIEST slugcat. This little guy is so crafty he leverages his enormous weight to crush his enemies! Its entirely possible for him to stun/ kill large creatures by falling on them

Seeing this upload makes me so unbelievably happy omg

I would have never expected funny slug game to become the next tears of the kingdom of this channel, but I'm very grateful

Scavengers (the monkey creatures with spears) use body language to show what they're about to do next. When they hold their spears up, it means they think something is a threat. There are many more motions they make but that's the most important one to look out for. Also holding a spear near them makes them really nervous and likely to attack you.

For some reason the concept of someone being introduced to hunter spawns through gourmand never occurred to me. All i'm gonna say is, you're in for an experience lol edit: especially cyan lizards. With hunter their introduction is sort of balanced by your scug being faster than normal, but on gourmand you might just feel like their helpless prey

[@QuinBoBin]

It’s funny you say that cause in this game 9 times out of ten the encounters feel pretty helpless

[@goopeymega4636]

Scugs can roll. Gourmand's rotundness allows him to roll twice as efficiently and repel projectiles while rolling. You can roll by holding down and a direction after falling a small distance.

Tip! The gourmand is an omnivore, and meat fills you up more than veggies/fruit. The gourmand also have a different way to "win the game" than the other campaigns and someone in the game can give a hint

[@ZenPlaysVideoGames]

For Gourmand, your first goal is either Five Pebbles for the cannon ending, or the Echoes for the ascension ending. Speaking of FP, you are really not going to like what happens to his region later on in the timeline, in more ways than one.

14:02 all creatures are passive when in shelters, so no, you’ll just have a temporary roommate.

[@Wellington-Owen]

Welcome to Gourmand, the most powerful creature to grace Five Pebbles’ and Moon’s complex

[@ThomasRives-q8k]

Just so you know spearmaster is at the earliest point we know of in the world! And don’t worry about having to sidetrack to get to moon she is required

[@Tropiks00]

22:44 This is the most cinematic thing i have ever seen

[@jacksonhatch371]

“What if we make it our goal to get to where the game started.” HOW???? HIS BRAIN IS GETTING LARGER BY THE MINUTE OH MY FETCHING COB. That’s not exactly it, but very close to it. Also, I think you already figured it out, but gourmand deals a massive three damage with spears. For reference other slugcats deal ONE DAMAGE with spears. The reason why he does this is because he knows he doesn’t have the stamina to keep throwing it over and over, so he puts his heart and soul into each throw to utterly obliterate and end the match before it begins, but gets tired after it.

[@12antlers]

cant wait to see your downpour jouney quin! looking forward to playing alongside your videos when the watcher DLC comes out in march (assuming downpour is done by then)

[@QuinBoBin]

Hopefully it’ll be done by then lol

[@andomrtoob7338]

22:55 INSANE CLUTCH

[@meloncaaat2050]

Remember you won’t be able to talk to moon if you don’t have the mark of communication

[@JudahFromTexas]

lets go Thanks you so much for this gracious and benevolent gift

[@chikii270]

If you get grabbed by a lizard, immediately hit throw! If you have a rock or spear then the lizard will get stunned and let you go. Also gourmand specifically is tougher, and has less of a chance to insta die when grabbed, so always wait to see if the lizard will let you go!

[@SirBoomster]

What a beautiful slug cat he is, and I also get the hamster vibe from Gourmand!

[@sandycatanzaro3755]

For your information he does 3x damage but when he throws a spear he gets ipee and he will do less damage and as for you quest you have to eat a lot of different types of food good luck.

[@HollyfromtheHollow]

...So, the horned birds, commonly called "King Vultures," the jumping, neon-blue lizards are known as "Cyan" Lizards (or occasionally "Leapzards"), and the horrifying Red Lizards are normally something you'd only originally see in Hunter's campaign. But you're playing Downpour campaigns, so. ...Anyway, the best way I can describe Gourmand is "high strength and intelligence, low endurance." Powerful, and with clever applications, but is slow and runs out of breath easily. And you'll probably want to keep an eye on the list above your food. It'll be important later.

[@matthewboire6843]

The timeline gets explored and showed throughout the different slugcats playthroughs, they don’t all live In the Same time.

[@kaiDynOoO]

WRAAAA YAYYY!!!! Dude I’m so happy you’re playing gourmand! You’re gonna love him, he is such a magnificent creature. The ending is also super sweet, which is nice lol.

[@cloudeddaze9502]

AWWWWW YOU SAW TINY ALIEN! It’s such a cute animation frfr!!!
