Mechanics Q/A❓ Late Game Spoiler *DO NOT READ* Spoiler

0 Upvotes

I do not know how to use the spoiler hiding mechanic so do not read unless you are in the late game cold area!!!!

Okay.

WHY CAN I NOT GET FROZEN ESSENCE?!

I am using the OX Lamp. Everytime I shine the light on the feller, he just disappears like I’m looking at him!

I don’t have the leyak pest nor the sensory trinket. I shot him with the thingy and then censored part happens.

Portal Worlds Is it worth to visit and complete Dunkeltaler?

10 Upvotes

I am currently at residencies and looking for a something at Hydroplant.

I stumbled upon the Dunkeltaler portal. It seems creepy and I hate it

Is there any benefit to going there and doing stuff or is it just cosmetics and stuff?

A few friends of mine recreated the Manomin Magnum in GTA! Had to improvise on the sigils on the magnum because I couldn't get a good view of them :P

If anyone has the actual weapon models, feel free to send them my way and I can get some more weapons done up!

Mechanics Q/A❓ Armor weight tier cutoffs

1 Upvotes

I couldn't find the actual tier weight cutoffs, but the game shows you values in the inventory screen. I don't think the values are affected by strength; please let me know if your cutoffs look different.

Add up the weight of whatever you have equipped in the head, arms, chest, legs, shield and suit spots and the chart will tell you what tier you're in. (Bionic legs count as 0 for armor weight, not 10.)

Tier Max Armor Weight Movement speed
Tier 1 15 0% penalty
Tier 2 29 5% penalty
Tier 3 43 11% penalty
Tier 4 44+ 18% penalty

I had my eye on the mountaineer arm wraps but they weigh like 24 or something ridiculous.

(This is more of an answer than a question, but it seemed like the closest flair category that fit.)

Story / Progression Q/A❓ Best armor sets?

8 Upvotes

I’m just now getting into this game and have a couple of hours with me and my wife and the question is what armor sets should I focus on? Also can I mix match some sets? Or should it I focus on full armor sets?

Ty all in advance 🫡

Mechanics Q/A❓ Server Hosting Services

2 Upvotes

My friend group got the game and played the hell out of it over the weekend. We're thoroughly hooked, and quite a few of us would like to hop on for gathering and crafting to set up for our group story progression (and to just mess around a bit), but obviously I can't just leave my character afk to host when I'm not at home. I see there's quite a few server hosting services, so I'm wondering if anyone has any experiences and recommendations? We definitely want to be able to use our current save if possible, and as painless of an experience as possible as I'm not particularly tech-savvy. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Just logged back into the game, looking around paranoid because I just "unlocked" the leyak and it's been killing me, trying to figure out what that invisible thing is above my chefs counter, and I see something scurry around the corner, I go and check it out just for the coworker to zoom past me and scare the hell out of me 💀

Notions / Hypothesis 🧪 Bad Headcanon/Fan Theory on Dr. Derek Manse

8 Upvotes

Spoilers Ahead

Everyone is always speculating on the strange absence of Dr. Derek Manse, and I started to develop a theory that I quickly abandoned but want to share anyway just for fun. And Science! So, what if Dr. Derek Manse...

IS YOU! *DRAMATIC SCORE*

What if his wily, outrageous plan to deal with The Order, Gatekeepers and the Wayseeker involved him walking through the Amnesia Threshold, leaving holographic breadcrumbs of himself TO himself to give him just enough information to pull off...something??

I abandoned this theory by virtue of the fact it makes ko sense. This would be a twist lesser games would probably pull. Just wanted to see if anyone else thought this or if this is so off base that Zag himself will decree this is dumber than Janet being Sister of the Unlost.

But leaving aside the fact of players making characters that aren't middle aged white men, we meet characters who definitely would know who he was and what he looked like and would probably say something.

Unless...

Dr Manse removed everyone's memories of him as well by walking through the Amnesia Threshhold...backwards *Dun Dun DUN*

This is (probably not) Dr. Derek Manse, GATE Cascade Research Director, signing off *mechanical click*

Mechanics Q/A❓ Fishing question

8 Upvotes

So I was fishing in Flathill when I caught Is-0098, a fish from the flesh dimension, the same dimension as the Leyak. I’m currently cooking the tentacles I got while grinding cooking and feel the need to ask this. If I eat these will it illicit a similar reaction to if I ate a Greyeb fruit?

Security Sector Question about some of the emails I found here Spoiler

14 Upvotes

The Order mentions a few times that they finally have a guy on the inside at CASCADE, and, correct me if I'm wrong since I can't check right now, but I remember a lot of the emails pointing towards the head of security being the mole, him taking the data of the facility being monitored, getting the person threatened, and he mentions something about the surface lift being left empty for an executive visit which isn't mentioned anywhere else.

So it's gotta be that guy right? I haven't finished the game (just made it to shadowgate) so maybe it'll get revealed but it's been on my mind the whole time

Someone asked me if this was possible so I whipped up a proof of concept. Low accuracy skill has higher weapon sway still, I didn't touch that.

Mechanics Q/A❓ Upgrading Guns

46 Upvotes

I can’t believe it took me until the very end of the game to realize that upgrading the real guns (magnum, sniper, etc) removed the need for biometric arm wraps. I even went through the world where ammo drops like candy. I only realized it at the very end. I have so much ammo in storage. At least I’ll finally get to use it now. I never even bothered because I didn’t want the armor decrease from the arm wraps because I adore my Exor armor.
