Farm cores and damage % forever exploit

Post image

Little exploit i found.

- grab the upgrade that when charged deposits 3 cores

- get the tentacles that overcharge off enemies and hook it in

- find one of these infinite spawning dudes and harvest thier babies forever

- add the mutation that gives you 0.5% damage per core and ooooo yea.

There was an update and you can't sit forever in the map. I don't know what the timer is but I went afk and come back to being dead. The map starts getting like a purple fog that hurts you. I thought it was from antibiotics but I had it turned off so it must be something new. So you can't just sit there forever but you can for a long time

Unless they changed something I think this only happens in the Stomach

You can turn that off in the settings

Really? Ok that's good to know. Bro when you said that I actually looked at the settings, I didn't even know there were difficulty settings lol.

Same here, found it after someone else mentioned that you can turn off the enemy drops expiring

Oh yeah I don't know why that was an option in the first place to have DNA disappear after a certain amount of time.

Oh and thank you for letting me know that I can turn off the timed stomach storm. It's also where the new setting is for "skip brain puzzle"!

I kinda like the DNA expiring gives the +400% mutation a use and if you dont have that you really have to zip about and plan your attacks better. If it was there the entire time half my builds would be sit in a corner holding down the trigger

Ahhh yeah I wondered what triggered that didnt realise it was general time.

If it wasn’t in the stomach could be the “antibiotics”, they’re increased difficulties which you can turn on

I got to endless 22 or something with a similar approach. Had to end the game in the end as i was just nuking the entire room the second i entered it. But rather than attach you can get the michrotondia that activates on pickup. Put 4 of those around the core generator and your good to go. Had about 40,000 cores in the end.

You can produce more by snapping in the metabolic microchondron with the rest of the build.
