I found a carbide axe in a surprise ruin near Redrock!
Please tell me this doesn't have the same luck as nethack, everytime I get something awesome at the start there i die quite soon after.

It's a roguelike. What do you think is going to happen?

It's not like Nethack, though there are points where you will basically just die, and then know better for next time. Though going cautiously ahead will negate a good amount of that as well.

Edit: Semi major point. You travel MUCH faster in the local map then you do across the world map. Just an observation. Good if low on food.

in-game time. In RL-time world map is obviously faster.

Cool, an update!

[Aqizzar]

A hint to everyone: pick a defect and distribute the points and delete the defect, you'll be at -4 points and unable to progress. Now if you press "walk northeast" you'll end up at class picking screen, and now you're at +4 points than you would be normally.

Hey, Rooster...

*Swarm Rack is no-longer buildable

And as it just so happens, I have a swarm rack schematic learned at this very moment. I feel like I've dodged a bullet in getting a chance to build this thing, whatever it is.

So I've been using a chaingun I found schematics for and built right away. This thing... Only problem with it is the huge amount of slugs it swallows up. Anything I point it at dies messily.

What did you expect from a chaingun? Sniper rifle accuracy?

You know, there are scoped versions of all of the guns I've seen so far....

[Gunner-Chan]

It's actually about as accurate on a per fire use standard. Anyone aimed at usually gets at least ONE shot hitting them. And it's just slightly weaker than the rifle. So yeah. Goatmen slaughter everywhere.

Shouldn't pump shotguns be able to have multiple shells in them? Maybe a better description would be Breech Loaded Shotgun, or add a breech loaded shotgun as the basic level shotgun, similar to a muskets base level rifle status.

Incidentally, latest character, 24 will and ego, 18 int, tinkerer job. Started with light manipulation, force bubble, and force wall, picked up disintegration at level 5. I picked up the ability to make speed injectors from Argyve, a pump shotty from a unique croc, a carbide long sword from another croc, and haven't even started on the watervine quest yet. This is looking good.

I had a chaingun early once, it is indeed a powerful weapon. Even with no skill or agility, the sheer fact that you throw 20 pounds of lead at the target each shot ensures you'll hit it.

Reminds me the time I found a scoped rocket launcher.

Seriously, why would someone put a scope on a rocket launcher?

Yeah, it's been bugging me too. They shouldn't be called pump shotguns because it defies the meaning of pump shotguns, namely that you have to reload every shot instead of pumping, and there's always one shell in the shotgun, despite combat shotguns being known for having multiple shells ready.
