Tips and Tricks for NG+ in Grounded!

[@bubbaganoosh814]

The tip to use heavy armour was great it got me past a sticking point with the Mant in NG+1, thanks

[@tylertaylor-wi2dl]

You can use your handy gnat when your in your base and travel around it will use your inventory where ever your player is near to build with. I used the handy gnat from my main base to build my second base with my resources from the first it’s a great tip

[@emmaskegg]

Never thought I’d be taking tips from Nicholas Cage

[@HEXiscool1]

One thing you can do for raw science is go to the hedge and break the web sacks and if your lucky you can get up to 3 infused spiderlings it helped me get teleporters

[@Armchairtuna717]

Nice, the only problem is trying to kill them all before one of them hits you and the staff infusions go off. Still a good tip though.

[@LHlegosans]

Cheers mordicai, appreciate it

No, you infest the red ant queen in the base game, then befriend the other too, then you have an infected in ng+1, and you can also feed the fire ant queen again to max out the mutation. Then you can infect the black (in ng+1), and the fire in ng+2.

[@Armchairtuna717]

I get that, but it is recommended to infect all of them in ng+ so you can get everything in ng+ 3

[@eralfion5316]

@@Armchairtuna717 Why? You get everything both ways, but some things quicker. (Like the Sausager, and the infected lance and shild in ng+1.) As I understand you wouldn't get anything more in ng+3 with your strategy, but you miss out in the earlier ones. I think it's designed in the way I did it. You can befriend the same queen twice in different ng (like black and fire in base, and fire again in ng+1) for the mutation, and the first infected sandwitch is avaliable in the base game. I doN't see any benefit in waiting instead of progressing by one infection a time, you will still get all the recipes in ng+3 that way, but will have some earlier.

[@Armchairtuna717]

@eralfion5316 idk I might be be wrong. But that's the way I would do it.

[@NinjaNerosis]

I'm on your side tuna... befriend first... that way in ng+ you can very easily farm infused ants of all types using antbassador and it just makes getting through the story so much easier... then in ng+ infect both red and black, kill fire, then in ng+2 infect fire...sausager isn't necessary to early ng in my opinion

[@eralfion5316]

@@NinjaNerosis You can get full antbassador right at the start of your first ng+ with my version. You DON'T need to befriend three differnt kind of ant queen (red, black, fire), you can befriend one twice, so nothing prevent you to befriend the black and the fire in the base game and jump down in the hole and befriend the fire again right after you started ng+. The sausager and the infected weapons are not a neccessity but nice to have, and you have no reason not to. You don't lose anything with it, on the contrary you can make bombs without ant eggs with it. I seariously think you guys jsut misunderstood the requirement for antbassador or I don't get your logic.

That Molar on top of the stump begs for a zip line. You should already have _something_ to get to the Field Station in the wall over the Wheel Barrow. It's a few stairs to the top of the wall, then run around and put a zip line over the stump and drop down. Easy. Same for the Bicycle Basket and ones in Flower tops. Between the Oak Tree base, a lumberyard Zip tower and the Wheel Barrow Field Station (top of wall access), there's really nowhere I can't zip over. I haven't built up to get to a single Molar. Plus there's the Mant Statue jump trick, which I've never tried. It looks unpredictable but with a few attempts that should be able to drop you literally _anywhere._ It hurts to build like that, especially at the Stump. Work smarter not harder.

[@Armchairtuna717]

I thought they patched the mant launch glitch? for ziplines, it would require more more but definitely worth it.

[@swskitso]

I zipline too. Especially since you can fly up and place walls with anchors, or carry an anchor up to the tops of the fence posts. It's easy to drop in anywhere.

[@HEXiscool1]

OMG TYSM tip 5 just saved me a lot of time of repairing and building I didn't know that u can repair with the handy gnat thanks

[@HEXiscool1]

I'm on ng+4 and didn't even know I spent so much time manually repairing

[@Armchairtuna717]

Np!

[@АлександрСорокин-п5д]

To have a Handy Gnat option, I need to swap to custom game, right? Will achievements be available in this mode?

[@Armchairtuna717]

Nope, as soon as you get into ng+, you will have the handy Gnat available. You won't have achievements available if you swap to a custom game.

[@АлександрСорокин-п5д]

Got it. One more question: Why is it so bright at your home? I have created many lamps, but there is little light from them and the house is still dark​

Waft emitter with only super venoms to call black widows is the best farm method to get rs. I use the moldy bomb and armors set the right mutations with black widow mount, perfect toast and liquid rage just for the buff. 500k in an hour easy .. don’t even need any health items as you will get health back from the moldy bombs. I’m in game plus 1 btw

[@reggiegambles2814]

Use loot luck and disect mutation & rub the stuffed black widow to get back super venoms to keep it going.

[@reggiegambles2814]

Use clay to build up.. saves time..

[@tylertaylor-wi2dl]

Use mushroom brick stairs very cheap and easy to farm for too
