Hey hey people Underrail Thread here

No you pipeworker.
I can explain, but only if you know this.

Do you know the concept of 'Damage Treshold' in this game?

>Begging to be banned again
As you wish

Fuck off retard.

Yes, which is what I was talking about. I thought the point was so the shield would block just enough damage from incoming attacks that your DT would resist the rest of the damage. What it sounded like was that if you had a high frequency high quality shield, it would block al the damage from guns, and only last for a few attacks, but if you had a lower rating for the higher frequencies it could soften the damage of more attacks and last longer while your DT is resisting all the damage that gets through.

No

Fuck off. If Nintendo and constant smash threads are still allowed then so should this

Do explosive mines destroy bear traps in their blast radius?

Nice deflection.

Still not gonna move

Bre, shield frequencies block different attack speeds.
A proper tin can should never worry about low speed impacts so a Low shield is a complete waste of time, what you want is a High-High shield to block high impact attacks like sniper rounds, which are the only thing besides Psi that can go beyond your layers of tungsten or Super Steel.
And you do not want low quality anything because quality only means how good a part is in the context of crafting multipliers, not what it does and doesn't do, a low Q emitter will ALWAYS be shit and worse than a high Q emitter, this is fucking common sense.
No.

people like you need to be hung.

>A proper tin can should never worry about low speed impacts so a Low shield is a complete waste of time
God this shit is always retarded.
Double low is the best kind of shield regardless of what kind of character you have.

Don't you have homework to do kid? Your mom's gonna be mad

if only you were a janny
oh well guess you'll have to stick to complaining

That's not what I mean. The low freq isn't to block melee attacks, it's so your shielding against high speed attacks like bullets is lower, so the shield doesn't pop from blocking all the damage from a guy's single AR burst, and instead lets some of the damage through so your DT would tank the rest of it. That way the shield lasts for the whole fight and is constantly mitigating just enough damage from incoming shots that your DT defeats most everything coming your way.

I think I'm soft-locked. I can't go forward because there are rocks in the way and I can't go back because lol negative 1000 initiative means I get mauled by the 8 pit bulls camping the zone transition. I'd revert to an old save but apparently the game only keeps the last two auto/quick saves you've made instead of all of them.

yes.
you catch on quickly tho

Just whine more cause you have no power faggout

Just go somewhere else for a while. Enemies reset to their original position after some time.

Or if you want you can just go to 5x speed and alt tab while shitposting here.

the tears of your impotency are delicious

how sure are you of this
because I'm pretty sure that's not what happens based on my experience

Nimble+armor sloping+supersteel is more of a QoL mitigation method of maintaining movement points instead of raw optimization. The theory being that being more mobile will prevent more damage (via cornering) and open up more opportunities for damage (via ability to reach optimal attacking range) than the raw defensive stats heavier armors grant.
Again, it's QoL. You're not going to be dodging anything at 40/50% arm pen with quad super steel, but you'll have some MP and won't be tied to Sprint. Whether Nimble is worth the feat point is extremely debatable (I'm personally not a fan of the idea at all), it's easy to see the theory behind the thing. I assume people would also go Body Weight Training.

iirc enemies reset position and respawn after 90 minutes in game time. At the very least I know that I've cleared out an area only to go back to it later and all the guys are back around where they normally started.

of course they go to the same position on respawn but that does not mean they go to the same position if you don't kill them

I sprinted past the goliaths on dominating to unlock the oculus and i came back 3 days later and they were still in the same place

Animals will respawn (because their parts are often oddities or crafting components)
Human enemies do not respawn.

I literally can not go anywhere because I used my one TNT charge already and there are rocks blocking my only route of egress and a ton of pit bulls are camping the other end of the zone.

Yes, but you must also remenber melee hits bypasses energy shields, for example, knifes bypasses 60% of your shields no matter what.
Low freq shields are used by squishies to protect them from crossbows and bullets spam, because they cannot tank anything.
But actually armour is the one that actually has the duty to protect you from melee hits, like knifes, not shields; the job of shields is to protect you from electric and energy damage, which metal armour has very low resistances against it, whereas metal armour has massive amounts of mech resistances.

Become a tungsten tank, knifefags stop being an issue once you got 60 DT, if you fully resist their crippling strike, it's debuff wont apply, wear full metal, tungsten armour, tungsten helmet, tungsten booties. Keep mechanics maxed out and make Leonie your gf for more tungsten, rush killing the Beast quest in foundry.

How long in game was it between you doing that and going back? I've never bothered to test it personally, the 90 minute reset is just what I've heard.

way more than 90 minutes i can say that for sure

I'm not talking about melee, holy crap.

>Implying it's not still relevant
I have 3 int and 3 per

>the job of shields is to protect you from electric and energy damage
A good quality shield emitter of any type is going to do that just fine.

Does enemies respawn ?

>a single enemy type that only shows up 3/4 times in very small numbers and are very easy to cheese is why you NEED a double high shield
You are legit stupid.

Anything outside of humans/scripted encounters eventually respawns.
Note that humans include muties.

You dont zone transition cheese if:
A) You cant kill an enemy in time
B) Cant survive a whole turn of that unit

Why would you ever go back to Depot A though?

Why is my fucking melee accuracy such garbage? Is there something I'm doing wrong? I feel like I miss more than I hit.

Zone transitioning only works if you zone properly with the upper hand, as in a zone with two or more entries.
Bear in mind zoning in a place with enemies you've already aggro'd automatically puts you at a -1000 initiative roll on the round you zone in.

Oddity is going to make your life a lot easier, especially on a first playthrough. Oddity equally benefits all playstyles, while classic only benefits those that can and will kill literally everything they come across. You're also less likely to be underleveled with oddity.

Also don't half ass any of your stats or skills.

Oddity, as the developer wants and intends
Why would you play Classic, which is more of the same?

I think Oddity levels you faster in the beginning of the game, but classic will let you max out easier.

Except you're forgetting about all those low speed projectiles that will easily fuck up a tin can that are far more plentiful in both the base game and DLC.
Double high advocates are just contrarians.

>95% Mech DR and 62 Mech DT
Yeah nah.

If you walk very slowly, like only a couple spaces at a time, that'll help you find traps better, cuz I'm pretty sure a lower perception rating that can still detect the trap takes longer for the trap to actually get detected. There's also gear that increases your perception or detection. And when in doubt you can just toss a grenade or something in the path you're going to take.

3 dex with a melee build is fucking stupid. Grenadier is pretty much required for them.

Grenadier dramatically improves how quickly you can kill enemies. Your armor has nothing to do with it retard.

Personally I find it incredibly refreshing to play an RPG where not everyone is trying to jump on your dick or lesbo it up as soon as you meet them.

>dude just tank it with your hp and carry around a whole extra set of armor lol
Or, you know, just use a double low shield like everyone else.
When you argue that carrying a whole extra set of armor is better than using a proper shield emitter you know you've lost the argument.

>spiders can disarm my gas grenades
why are they so smart

why would I need sprint when I can just throw 3x as many grenades now

It's absolutely a meme because melee niggers think their shit applies to everyone and give terrible advice.

How about the fucking wheeled sentry bots that can go up and down stairs? That was some shit when I first saw that.

unironically, doing both is the best way to go about it. there's really nothing stopping anyone from putting all their options forward towards overcoming specific kinds of combat and, given how strong sledgehammer users are and how relatively light shields and leather armor is, carrying around gear for specific encounters is hardly a bad idea.
It's definitely a luxury STR players have.

>Not having 300 kg carry capacity

aite lads

>you really don't know shit about this game huh?
Considering I finished the game in Dominating with 600 hours in it, I'd say no, not at all
But whatever floats your boat my dude

burrowers are seriously the fucking worst. they're just gigantic hordes of bullet sponges that make you waste tons of your resources for virtually no reward to pay you back for them. maybe a couple meager chests of in their lair if you're lucky. gorsky had the right idea

Supression+opportunist = free 15% damage for every shot in a burst past the 1st one. It's really good. And SMGs usually cost less AP than an AR, so you can burst more often. Expertise and the weapon mod and feat that add extra rounds to a burst would probably be really good.

the fact that you can't provide a counter argument proves it
oh and lets not forget that crippled only has a max stat of 3.
just imagine getting basic shit wrong after "600" hours of playtime.

Only reduces AP by 15. No big deal.

You took the Fallout spiritual successor pill. That was a meme. This game is turn-based Diablo with extra steps.

I can provide argument, as being heavily overcumbered by crippled will also siphon almost all your AP, sure, getting 20 AP from adrenaline will at least let you throw a grenade and move an inch, but unless you throw a grenade at your feet, kill everybody around you AND survive the blast, you will have a really awful time, specially if you dont manage to finish the job before the exhaustion effect kicks in.

Then again, no point on arguying, whatever floats your boat.

im never sure if full auto is worth it on smgs. 4 points is a lot on a build that already wants lots of dex and perc

maybe im a huge zoner babby but i feel like the easiest solution is to press f9 and throw an incendiary before he unstealths

In that we agree.
I always felt fire nades are superior to frag nades.

For some reason i cant get into this game. I dropped it right when i reached the big major city where it was spooky and scary things were drilling through to invade.

I still fail to see how Sprint is bad on a character that is usually at 95% AP, tho.
I mean sure, I'm very biased since I personally play melee, and dont know much guns, but there's no reason to not get an ability that gives you 30 unpenalized movement point for completely free for 2 turns, 45 MP if fully specialized. We are arguying like Sprint and Grenaider are muturally exclusive, maybe for a hammer tin can is, but not for a gunner tin can.
Still, when a dick ass thought controller shows up and the player fails to end his existence in 1 turn, being able to book it is a pretty good achievement.

They are, especially when suggesting the newbie build. And don't try to duck out of it this time and suggest that Sprint has always been recommended when that's clearly false. You're the only one that does it.
There's no point in using Sprint when you can grab Psycho-temporal Contraction with no stat investment while simultaneously opening up the possibility for the other universally useful psi abilities.

However, as far as I know, talking to other anons, psycho temporal contraction bonus MP points get penalized after the first turn by Armour Penalty, tho.
Also, it's not exacly free, you must put 55 points into TM
>And don't try to duck out of it this time and suggest that Sprint has always been recommended when that's clearly false.
>You're the only one that does it.
While I concede this one, given I never have runned gunner tin cans before, you must understand than Sprint is still very reasonable on a high AP tin can regardless, it's not really that out of the way to get anyways.

55 skill points is significantly less investment than 3 stat points.
>given I never have runned gunner tin cans before
Then why the hell are you spending so much time arguing about it?
Yeah, Sprint is useful. Is it going to be mandatory for heavy armor dudes? No. Is it going to be better for most characters than Grenadier? No.

I read that they don't refresh if you stay on the map. So, it's 90 mins away from the area. It's in game 90 mins so if you set max speed, it's a lot less. My stores refresh really quick cos I play on 5x speed and I move between areas to sell. Early game, you can sell things at both Junkyard and SGS. Then not long after, you have core city, rail crossing and foundry. I pick up and sell everything that isn't junk and you quickly end up with more money than you can spend.

stealth doesnt work that well with shotguns anyway because theyre the loudest weapons in the game and the last patch stopped them working with ambush.

yeah half the time I make so much noise people just funnel into my gun, I was putting it into some speech shit but I kinda want try another psi class for shits

is tincan shotgun viable?

I don't see why not. Your stats will be spread pretty thin, though. What I'd do is 9 per for fragmented chaos and get reckless at level 1. FC is huge crit damage so you should wear crit goggles too. Sounds like a huge damage build.

Anything with a shotgun is viable.
Get a Vindicator, short barrel, ammo tube, watch the world burn.

im just a little while after depot a wheres a better shotgun I can get I made one earlier and its starting to lose it power, I could just buy one but thats lame, also ive never seen another shotgun if im being honest

Is mercantile worth the points? Everything feels overpriced as shit and I'm curious how effective it is.

Why can't you answer like a normal person? Do you have a mental condition?

The reason why people finish a gang questline is because, all the items in corpses, all the items in lockers and shelves, all the items in the whole fucking base, everything, is for you to loot

I assume you are deflecting so much since you are mad af, but calm down, it's just an anonymous board. Who gives a fuck.
I know most posters here are contrarian edgy kids, but anyway, I'm still waiting for a somewhat coherent 90+ IQ answer for the appeal to this type of game.

But being a contrarian is fun!

You should try it sometime!

Big games are pretty much always safe, bland and designed by committee because they're all made by publically listed companies. Indie games made by one guy in a garage like this one tend to be the only source of real creativity and depth these days. You could never get a classic 90s rpg approved by a big publisher and you could never get a game like this made through them. lots of people are willing to put up with janky graphics for great gameplay too.

I did some stealth work for a shady guy at the bar, now he's inviting me for some action on the other side of the junkyard. How hard is this encounter going to be?

>How hard is this encounter going to be?

Just found out normal is the intended way to play. What the fuck, I could have sworn it was hard. Did Styg switch around the descriptions like when he removed the recommendation for Oddity?

I'm wondering how decent it would be to focus critical chance and critical bonus as a sword focused battler. The crit rate gets insane after one or two carves, and the base damage is so much higher than knives. I do end up having to sacrifice strength though.

That's a hell of a lot of assuming on your part.

for a psi build should I go 10 int 10 will?

You can steal more than ammo, it's not even a big investment in points really, an effective 80-90 score lets you get most stuff easily, suspicion also cools down with time so there's really no reason to get higher pickpocketing than that, pretty good to have a side skill on high DEX builds.

Tactical vest. Energy shields. What do you need STR and DEX both for?

APEX HARDCORE

-items sold are worth 10% their regular price
-carrying capacity reduced by 50%
-can't drop items from your inventory for free (can still drop equipped weapons for free)
-grenade cooldowns are increased by 1 turn
-high efficiency energy converters nerfed to regenerating x% of energy lost to damage, at y% per round
-toxic gas simply deals bio damage each round/if moved through; no damage multiplication
-using psi abilities from 1 school will increase the action point cost of psi abilities from other schools
-forcefield functions as an energy shield against ranged attacks and has a certain amount of hp against melee attacks before failing (dependent on skill)
-all npc's have 30% greater detection & trap detection (bosses have 50% greater)
-bear traps dont function if they deal no damage, stronger enemies have shorter durations, and spotted traps use your traps skill vs their dodge
-some enemies will have black dragon throwing knives/crossbow bolts, and such traps can also be found
-randomized traps/locations
-enemy placement is somewhat random
-npc's that spot traps or corpses will turn orange and search the map (and pull alarms, if any)
-if spotted, all hostile npc's on that map will never turn back to green; yellow minimum
-npc's will not enter dangerous terrain (such as gas, fire, or traps) unless they have a clear path to you
-most hostile npc's, if they can't attack you on their current turn, will instead head for cover or distance
-if you are seen entering stealth in a controlled or partially controlled map, npc's will turn hostile
-gladiators past master exploder have improved builds with more feats, especially carnifex
-tribal bosses lead invasions; 1=old ice guy, 2=eldran, 3=bankraester, 4=oyensorm, 5=magnar
-Tchort will resurrect after a few turns as long as at least one mutagen tank is still active; how long depends on how many are active
-Eidein goes to DC before the invasion starts; he is present with tchort during the final battle

Dunno, stat wise it says they both boost melee so I put some points into it. Also, I think I needed like 7 dex for flurry or something. Hopefully I can find a tactical vest then, is that like a component I can add to the riot armor?

>how do I dodge bullets
With your shield and guts, nigga.
You do have Riot armor with a shield, right?

just kill briggs

yeah I had to make it steel, not tungsten because I couldn't find tungsten plates
but I still get crit out the ass

Only real bangas can do that.

I suggest a re-roll, sword n board is not suited for beginners. Also your stat spread is screwed up.
Riot gears are the worst armor in game so unless you know what you are doing, best to stick to tac vest until your build picks up at lvl 20.

If I restart again I'm just going to end up not picking the game back up for another month. My first first character I played as a pistol using semi-psi guy with lots of trap skill, but I got bored and annoyed at using traps by the time I got to core city and I didn't want to restart, so I just stopped playing for a month. Now I'm midway through the junkyard and if I have to restart again I might just not come back to the game. Is there a way to use cheat engine to respec? But thanks

In any case, if you want to continue on, then pump throwing, get grenadier and three-pointer, then start all engagements with flash-bangs, and your strongest grenades. remember to get cheap shot and crit power as well, tungsten straight machetes are can hit 300~400 crit bonus with those two feats. Also spec into ap cost and cool down reduction of shield bash so you can actually use that damn thing at lvl 20.

Get an extra con for juggernaut.

How is his stat spread screwed up, besides that he seems to have more stats listed than he should. You either want 10 in strength for base damage, or 10 in dex for high crit, everything else is required for sword perks, 6agi for sprint I'm guessing.

Ideal riot gear for sword n board is only 46% armor penalty, nimble and body weight traning drops it to 21%. At that level, there's no need for sprint. Dex and Int can stop at 6. This leaves 5~6 points which can be pump into Con for conditioning, juggernaut, thick skull, as well as survival instincts. Survival instincts is especially important, as the weab katana basically one-shots everything on a cit, and tungsten shields can hit for average 400 at end game.
Dropping Dex to 3, will also allow you pump Wil to get stoicism, which when build right, can give 100% natural physical immunity at single percentage digits of life

As a tin can, I always believed Stoicism is the least relevant of the 'tank' feats

the guy who made it is a cuck who refuses to let people mod it

>who refuses to let people mod it
And thats a good thing

fuck off nigger

SMG + sniper + throwing + traps + stealth master race here

>Sword and board
>6 dex
> no riposte

I see you have mastered this game and are above us humble plebs. If you want 3 dex you should literally just not play swords. I definitely agree with lower int in favor of con and survival feats though.

It is; it's the psynergy with morphine, conditioning, and Last Stand that make it what it is. having the ability to negate morphine's missing health pop with last stand gives just sooo many turns of being ungodly tanky at lower % health

Okay I will, but just before reminding you that you will never -ever- be able to mod the game to insert your shitty hentai-eske anime porn waifu mods

Tah tah

Stoicism is the best tank feat, with iron gut + aegis + stoicism at 50% hp, you can become immune to bio damage.
Max spec stoicism at 20% hp + aegis gives 45% resistance to ALL damage types, and with morphine and spec last stand, you can become practically invincible for at least 4 turns at will.
This of course is entirely gear independent, so you can run around with 20% armor penalty if you want to.

Mercantile doesn't affect sell price, retard.

>Riposte
>Getting hit by melee when everything dies in one hit

I have a level 25 sword n board on dominating, and I regret 6 Dex, because everything has a 50% chance of dying in one hit from either my shield or my sword.
With temporal contraction, flash bangs and adrenaline, my char can hit 6 times per turn, and have 2 turns to massacre everything. That averages to 6 dead enemies to start a battle off.

SnooPINGAS usual I see.

Seriously though, make the world a better place by neckng yourself and write a letter blaming it on your fucking youtuber 'influencer'. Remember to type it up, nobody can read your retard scrawl handwriting.

it would unironically look worse if you were maxing agility, because it strangely feels like the least "combat" base stat despite its impact on dodge and evasion.

I guess that's good, I'd rather pump up WIL for better PSI defense or PER for more crit damage with maxed out Critical Power, but that's just me.
Not like it matters much even on Hard either way, as long as you have 10 INT and 9 PER you're already done with the build stat wise, the rest is different icings.

how viable is it to play this game without any psi powers whatsoever?

In games like these I always prefer to be the standard pistol shootman just using wits to fight psychics/mages/etc..

OKAY
SO I FIGURED OUT HOW TO SEQUENCE BREAK THE JETSKIS WITHOUT PORT ZENITH
Requires that you have whatever the lockpick requirement is for the gate at ray's store
So obviously you need to walk in and hotwire a jetski however, if anybody in core city sees you on that jetksi, they will become hostile
It's fine if rays' camera sees you stealing the jetski, nobody cares
so what you need to do is steal it and drive away from core city
find some random zoner on a jetski and steal his jetski
now you have a jetski and people in core city aren't mad about it
I haven't gone that far with it yet so maybe ray will actually be mad when he shows up and then everybody else too

Attached: file.png (315x284, 147K)

Still viable, if a little bit more challenging
In normal, with proper guidance (and functional brain by your part), you play with no major issues

Also ballistics pistols right now are somewhat underpowered, pales in comparison with chemical or energy pistols

well, grenades aren't out of the picture. I'm fine using anything that isn't supernatural.

I haven't looked too much into the game mechanics yet, is there something like Drone Control in the Shadowrun games?

>Drone Control in the Shadowrun games
Cant say much because I havent played Shadowrun games, but about grenades:

See

its a 1 man army kind of game. the closest thing to a summon is one of the psychic powers.

Helmets are for protection.
NVG are for offensive shit.

but why cant you have NV in a helmet? why cant you wear goggles over a balaclava?

Shields aren't cray anymore and using swords without Flurry is as stupid as using sniper rifles without Aimed Shot.

Am I missing something here?

boots add armour penalty

Because they do different things. NVG are more susceptible to flashbangs while helmets are immune to them. Balaclava+any goggles would give too much benefit. It's all for balancing.

its the armor that counts, not boots/helmet

okay nevermind ray's camera totally matters
it makes all the praetorians mad at you if it sees you
but I'm pretty sure if you steal the freighter the camera won't see you and the requirement for that is 100 lockpicking which I do not have yet

yeah, just reloaded and shoved it down his throat

juggernaut doesn't count boots or helmet penalty, bre

Based janny

top tier tungsten ~80 block
shield arm ~ block *1.3
boarding up ~ block * 2
crit ~ dmg * 2
80 *1.3*2*2 = 416

And that's without taste for blood or spec into shield bash block/dmg, with spec, and taste for blood, damage goes up to ~1000
In dominating, most end game enemies have ~600 hp, so a plasma grenade and a shield bash should kill most enemies.

>Flurry
Justify hitting a guy 3 times when a weab katana hits for 800~900 on crit with crit power and cheap shot.

>how viable is it to play this game without any psi powers whatsoever?
Very. Also, psi users have to take a pill at the start of the game that permanently reduces their max HP by 25%, so not being a psyker means you have slightly more HP.

On the other hand the new spell school they added in the expansion shakes things up considerably since Temporal Manipulation's best utility spells don't scale with anything, you just need the minimal skill level to cast them. None of the related feats have any stat requirements either. This means that even if you have shoddy stat allocations for a psyker (3 WIL) and stop leveling up the skill at 55 or 70, those best skills' effectiveness won't suffer, and ho boy they're powerful: at 25 you unlock Increment that reduces ALL skill cooldowns by one turn, Contraction at 55 is one of the rare skills that increases AP for a few turns with no downsides and it stacks with other AP-related items, whereas Stasis enables you to shut down an enemy entirely for few turns or cast it on yourself and let your other cooldowns run their course in perfect safety. They're spells that literally all builds benefit from.

>Justify hitting a guy 3 times when a weab katana hits for 800~900 on crit with crit power and cheap shot.
turn that 15 AP cost to 10 and get a 2nd hit if necessary

I'm not saying that flurry is shit, but when you do a sword n board build, you would already have 10 str, so in the case of a high str build, that 1 bonus crit and flurry is honestly nothing compared to higher con for HP or higher str for accuracy.
>turn that 15 AP cost to 10 and get a 2nd hit if necessary
3 turn cooldown if you miss or do no damage, guess what stat helps to hit and do dmg at 10 str, 6 dex?

just make them have tradeoffs
night vision goggles exist in game AND real life
so why can't you just mount them on the helmet?
would be way easier than forging metal armor.

What are the various types of shotguns and which is the best? I've just been using the Despot because I've had a hard time finding other frames.

armory man in SGS usually has one right when you first start, sometimes he doesn't though. you could just restart until he offers one, it takes like 30 seconds to see if he's got one.

Just hover over the Shield Bash skill and it'll list the damage. Nothing to do with crit stuff.

i have no idea if short or long barrel is better

Short barrel increases damage with a wider spread angle while long does the opposite.

FUCK HOW DO I SURVIVE SILENT ISLES IF THERE ARE GORILLION PSI BUGS AND RATHOUNDS AND A SHADOW ME

also, should I ignore crafting? I think putting craft skill points is overextending my skill pool

stay in the light

i know. i just dont know which is actually better for dps. ive been sticking with long since everything on dominating has such high evasion.

okay
and how important is crafting

Recklessness on a sword build?

Kill the mooks one by one or drag them by Broderick so he massacres them for you, if you stay by the lantern's light you won't spawn doppels, but as soon as you get away from its radius the countdown will begin, you can stop them from spawning and learn to spawn them yourself on other people if you have high enough WIL and Thought Control to interact with the monolith.
>also, should I ignore crafting?
Worst possible decision ever.

Just for you

Cool.
I still wouldn't go lower than 6 dex.

is only viable anti-crawler tactic just setting entire area on fire?

A bear traps is fine too.

>enter combat
>sprint, contraction, jumping bean
>run around at max speed to bump into them
>premed + electrokinesis
>whack away with sword

or

>run into middle of open area
>cast stasis on yourself

You can sort of cheese them with force field. Stand next to a bend in the wall and force field yourself to the wall in a way that leaves a tile that neighbors the tile you're standing on empty. The crawler will try to attack you but cannot because the natural wall and the force field prevent it from attacking diagonally. This means the crawler will chill one tile away from you for the duration of the force field, allowing even blind people to detect them.
If this doesn't make too much sense I'll tr to illustrate in paint when I have some time, fuck posting from work.

what's the best way to deal with poison in this game

I'm a based steel armor chad so the little ones don't really do anything to me

should I just stack up on antidotes and use them willy nilly

>not sprint + jumping bean + exothermic aura and setting the whole fucking cavern on fire
lighting the area on fire reveals stealthed creatures too
too bad the fuckers cheese it by clinging to the ceiling, they get a free hit when they drop down on you, and THEN their AI spazzes out due to fire

shields block the poison, but you gotta kill quick.

The little ones don't do anything to you and the big ones inject you with a debuff that makes healing items decrease your hp instead of increasing it.
There isn't much you can do. Tank the poison and attack with all your might.

finally able to dominate these bastards.

Is this the kind of game you need to read wiki for about a week to enjoy it?

there's a wiki everytime you hover over an item in-game.

>should I ignore crafting?
it's like you didn't even watch the video

no but if you don't you'll wish you had

is there a game where the amount of your body that is armored plays an even bigger factor than how good the armor is? I can't stand when you are supposed to be a walking tank yet a good portion of your face and neck are completely exposed.
Stupid.

so I didn't join the expedition
what happens if i just let them lose

understandable.

riot and metal armor cover your head even if you dont have a helmet equipped.

save beforehand and find out for yourself
you know, what you're supposed to do in these types of games

> t. Zoomer

but doesnt that only work with one at the time?
seems like nonflamable armor + fire everywhere is still best option

I asked because I don't want to wait 30 years for 20 enemies to take their turns over and over and maybe somebody else already tried this

Fuck this Gauntlet shit, this is some autism.

Are there games like Underrail for mobile phones?

You can speed up combat speed in options

>have to carry around a Jackknife because it increases lockpicking and then constantly swap weapons if I find locker that without equipping it I can't open

This is stupid game design.

Yeah, I hate skill bonuses from anything. I want my character build to be independent from items.

I'm looking for Abram in the caves and siphoners keep popping out of water and scaring the shit out of me.

you went too far

I assume he means the whole having to equip the knife and then switch to it if you're not already on that slot to get the bonus. As opposed to it just giving the + stats bonus passively by simply having it in your inventory.

Oh, user, if the light splash of siphoners scare you, wait for the EARTH SHATTERING crab spawns.

I mean both. If you'll have an item like that then make it a passive bonus. Guess what? It not only needs to be equipped on you but you also have to switch to it with X.

I sort of figured cuz it wouldn't really make sense for a meeting spot to be past a bunch of dangerous frog monsters, but I explored the caves immediately west of the junkyard gate and I don't see him. At first I thought it was some kind of trap because I saw a small building and thought that's where he must be, and instead I got ambushed by thugs.

Is there a consistent source of empty shotgun shells? I'm having a hard time getting enough for 3p.

what's the most useful psi if I also wanna use shotguns

imagine not siding with based Black Eels instead of Scrappers

TM is usable with a 70 point dip and 3 will and gives you basically solely utility magic

outside of the usual dipping, maybe metathermics for thermo destab.
55 is pretty great too

That seems kind of risky for shotguns.

regular, high res digital or anatomically aware for cyclone?
playing as sneaky type with bits of psi

there's maybe some synergy with endothermic aura and leading shot too

You're in the cantina and this guy slaps your girlfriend's ass. What do you do?

Does Critical Power affect shotguns? I feel like I have to ask after finding out Expertise doesn't (and doesn't make any special mention about it).

It's wonky right now and behaves weirdly with Fragmented Chaos. Pretty sure Styg confirmed that was a bug but put off dealing with it to revisit Critical Power as a whole.

>mfw Depot A for the first time
Time to put that 500 charons left to good use

That was actually going to be my follow up question. So for a heavy shotgun/sniper build would it be just better to go just for Critical Power and forego Fragmented Chaos?

I get railroaded into quests to find artifacts that really don't concern me and then get a few hundred dollars of monopoly money for my troubles.

Depends on how often you plan on using the sniper rifle but in general yeah. If you've already got Aimed Shot then yes.
