ADM Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I was feeling like writing my feedback about WX-78 refresh, so far I'm enjoying it ! That was quite my expectations but a bunch of improvements would be needed. So because of that I'll go over certain of their new augment circuits and though that might be better if their effects was known to anyone reading on the go, I hope it will be helpful and that I didn't get any data wrong (if that's the case please let me know) : Hardy Circuit : Mob to scan : Butterfly (gives 1 Bio Data) Craft : 1 Bio Data + 1 Butterfly Wings 1 Slot Increase health by 50 per unit Hardy Circuit 2.0 : Mob to scan : Nurse Spider (gives 4 Bio Data max) Craft : 4 Bio Data + 2 Spider Glands, 1 Hardy Circuit 2 Slots Increase health by 150 per unit Super-Processing Circuit : Mob to scan : Crawling Horror / Terror Beak (gives 3 Bio Data max) Craft : 3 Bio Data + 1 Nightmare Fuel 2 Slots Increase sanity by 75 per unit, also increase sanity regen by 2/min/unit Dronemaster Circuit : Mob to scan : Bee Queen (gives 10 Bio Data max) Craft : 8 Bio Data + 1 Jellybeans + 1 Super-Processing Circuit 3 Slots Regenerates about 1HP every 15 seconds, increase health by 1 for each of these upgrade installed Also replicate the sanity effect of the previous circuit Chorusbox Circuit : Mob to scan : Crab King (gives 8 Bio Data max) Craft : 4 Bio Data + 1 Baritone Shell Bell 3 Slots Emits music, which tend plants around and restore sanity to WX + players around (about 3/min per slot) A new layer is added to the music when you use another one Gastroexpansion Circuit : Mob to scan : Bearger or Slurper (gives 6 / 4 Bio Data max) Craft : 3 Bio Data + 1 Thick Fur 2 Slots Increase max hunger by 75 for each of these upgrade installed, also reduce hunger drain by 15% but doesn't stack Acceleration Circuit : Mob to scan : Rabbit (gives 2 Bio Data max) Craft : 2 Bio Data + 1 Rabbit 6 Slots Increase movement speed by 25% Acceleration Circuit 2.0 : Mob to scan : Ancient Guardian, Rook / Damaged Rook (gives 6 / 3 Bio Data max) Craft : 6 Bio Data + 1 Gears + Acceleration Circuit 2 Slots Same but speedboost stacks will go : 25%, 40%, 50% Thermal Circuit : Mob to scan : Dragonfly (gives 10 Bio Data max) Craft : 4 Bio Data + 1 Red Gem 3 Slots Makes WX emit heat of 25 per unit, also increase spoilrate of carried items by 25% (doesn't stack) Refrigerant Circuit : Mob to scan : Deerclops (gives 10 Bio Data max) Craft : 4 Bio Data + 1 Blue Gem 3 Slots Makes WX emit cool of -25 per unit, also decrease spoilrate of carried items by 25% (doesn't stack) Electrification Circuit : Mob to scan : Volt Goat (gives 5 Bio Data max) Craft : 5 Bio Data + 1 Electric Milk 2 Slots Deals 30 electrical damage to attackers, has a cooldown of 0.3 second each unit deals 30 extra damages Optoelectronic Circuit : Mob to scan : Mole (gives 4 Bio Data max) Craft : 4 Bio Data + 1 Mole 4 Slots Grants night vision, without the blinding effect of Moggles when it's day ! (applying extra augments has no effects) Illumination Circuit : Mob to scan : Skittersquid / Depths Worm / Bulbous Lightbug (gives 6 Bio Data max) Craft : 6 Bio Data + 1 Light Bulb 4 Slots Gives a light radius of 4 (Magiluminescence is 2 to compare), then it increase by 0.5 per module (however 1 is max because of slot count) Few useful things to note : They all have 4 uses, 25% is lost everytime WX use the Circuit Extractor which removes all augments Bio Data obtained from Jimmy (the scanner) is calculated from the player and not by Jimmy, Mobs scanned will give the circuit craft and the max amount of Bio Data The same mobs can be scanned again after a short time (about a minute) to get BDs in a lesser amount if not totally waited out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-met Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Thank you for the detailed post, the other threads aren't so helpful explaining the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheggf Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Thanks for the detailed post. Seems like they wanted the light circuit to have a reasonable cost of 2 or 3 but then randomly made it super expensive for some reason, even moreso than the night vision one.

DaZoul Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Question: Does the Thermal Circuit make you completely immune to freezing? Or just very resistant. How about having 2 of em? Same question with the Refrigerant Circuit, but in the context of overheating and fire damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notecja Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Illumination circuit I would buff to require to only 4 slots. The moggles seems to be more powerful, but illumiation kinda punish for not being selfish... (its light for everybody and so expensive, but moggles are much bigger radius... To watch friends dying without light). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the max you can do is 90 electrical dmg. However the target being wet does not seem to increase the dmg, idk if bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, each circuit has it's own event listeners and own cooldown, so that's probably where you got confused . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched DemonRebuilt's stream and he just goes through the entire winter with the thermal unit alone. No thermal stones needed. It prevents your temperature from ever go below 0.

This completely prevents you from freezing, even against stuff like deer spells. The cooling circuit is supposed to similarly cap your maximum temperature to 70 but it is bugged at the moment.

Kob0ld Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 This update does not seem that it is completely thought through This update just makes it so that people will start abusing the speed meta, of using either 3 speed 2.0's or 1 speed 2.0 and night vision. This completely negates everything else. You don't need extra hp or anything if you just have 3 speed 2.0's. Also, the other circuits that are already not viable, such as the hunger reduction one have insane needs, such as getting thick fur from bearger, it instead should be some food item that is accessible. It does not make sense to be forced to kill a boss for an item that is already kind of bad. My changes: Make circuits rechargable, - Change item requirements, such as thick fur to some other food item - Reduce slots on super processor to 1 - Separate dronemaster circuit and superprocessor into superprocessor and some other regeneration circuit. The regeneration is completely useless, you can anyways heal with some food items. The regeneration item will cost 1 slot - Thermal circuit should be reduced to 2 slots as it is clearly far worse than counterpart, because it increases food spoiling and summer is harder anyways. - Increase speed v2.0 to 3 slots, it is far too overpowered -Reduce the slots of illumination circuit to 3, as it would otherwise promote solo play with nightvision instead of sharing light with your teammates.

Super-Processing Circuit : fine for noobs Dronemaster Circuit : needs to be 2 slots, or slightly better heal Chorusbox Circuit : needs to make maxwell insane Gastroexpansion Circuit : this should explicitly state that it reduces hunger drain Acceleration Circuit : fine and strong Acceleration Circuit 2.0 : a bit too strong, but we like S P E E D Thermal Circuit : should make you immune to fire only at 2 of them equippped Refrigerant Circuit : should make you immune to freeze at 2 of them equipped Electrification Circuit : should do electric damage Optoelectronic Circuit : still needs to be 5 pins Illumination Circuit : moggles need to be made 5 pins to make this one be worth it in situations and of course, there need to be some thulecite precision pliers that removes one circuit at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoctor11220 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Does the refrigerant circuit make you freeze faster in winter? Also does it make you freeze when the ambient temperature is 1 or 2 degrees (when normally you wouldn't)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also does it make you freeze when the ambient temperature is 1 or 2 degrees (when normally you wouldn't)? I would assume the passive cooling would make you freeze faster. As for the second question, since it's a constant output, I can assume yes, like standing next to a blue firepit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be my assumption as well, which unfortunately means that module is not really good enough to keep on. You would swap this in for summer, except swapping circuits is very punishing, so really it's just not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would swap this in for summer, except swapping circuits is very punishing, so really it's just not good. It only takes about a day and a half for a full charge, and the temp circuits are only useful in their opposing seasons, there is no possible reason to directly swap from one temp circuit to another so that's plenty of time.

lakhnish Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 To make @ADM's life somewhat easier: Hardy Circuit now requires a spider to scan. New 1 slot circuit sanity circuit: the processing circuit, obtained by scanning a butterfly, 1 Bio Data + 1 Petal Super Processing circuit requires the above circuit to craft. New 1 slot hunger circuit: the Gastrogain circuit, obtained by scanning a hound, 2 Bio Data + 1 Hound's Teeth Gastroexpansion Circuit has been renamed to Super-Gastrogain Circuit, uses a Slurper Pelt instead of Thick Fur, 3 Bio Data + Slurper Pelt + 1 Gastrogain Circuit Slurper gives 3 bio data now, Bearger gives 6 bio data Electrification Circuit deals wetness damage Illumination Circuit takes 3 slots now The light radius increases when using two Optoelectronic Circuit requires a firefly now Dronemaster Circuit is now the Beanbooster Circuit, uses a Royal Jelly to craft, idk the new regen rate xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
