I went down to level five or so in Red Rock. And then I got attacked by a couple of eyeless giant crabs at once. I got out alive by three hp, so I decided that was probably a sign that I should turn back.
He was asking about random levels, not fixed ones.

Also, if you can't get past level 5 Red Rock that isn't a good sign for your adventurer. Man up and go back there!

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

I got to level 5 on a dive, could have gotten far deeper, but I wanted to transport the loot to town. In one shot. With a recoiler. Needless to say, 200 items on one square caused a crash. CURSE MY PUNY ESPER ARMS.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

This was several versions ago. My character at the time was a Fuming God-Child with max strength, max toughness, and an obsidian kriss, so I submit that your expectation that he get that far into Red Rock is crazy. You can't fight eyeless giant crabs that early on!

You think I'm crazy?
And? I want to put out fires by pouring money on them.
...You're crazy.
"Crazy" is a word used by fools and malcontents with no vison! I am enlightened beyond what you could ever hope to comprehend.

Yeah, they are. Later on they're just punching bags. They have no special abilities, but man do they soak up a lot of damage.

Oh, when I was saying "man up" I was expecting you to be a level or two higher. And a mutant with force wall and a ranged weapon or something.

If you got everything right I would've believed you somewhat. However, since you got Liquid wrong, I consider you a lunatic.

Someone get the syringe and happy pills.

That's if you even live long enough standing in the darn thing. Acid freaking hurts to stand in.

Everyone can clearly see the "« Last Edit: Today at 22:18:10 by MetalSlimeHunt »". You're not fooling anyone. :P

It about negates thirst, maybe a little less then that. Its GOOD, but not incredibly good. Now, if you could fill it with salt water and get that filtered out, it would be excellent.

I edited it, i thought at first it was for recycling salt water as well, but getting water from yourself is fine too i guess.

Edit: You get payed to work out!

Edit edit: Gaslight kris -> Lightsabre (of shittyness)

Speaking of salt water, it would be cool if we could run across an ancient water purification plant at some point in the game. Or at least get a water fitration system as an artifact. So much salt and brackish water going to waste...

I just want to throw slime at people dwarf fortress style.

But yeah, i've always wished for that, there are a few places with water lying around, not much though unfortunitly.

I have so much stuff to tinker up now, so much stuff...
