_mylilsunshine_ Posted November 5, 2024 Share Posted November 5, 2024 Hi, I'm a new player (630hrs-ish) and I have only played the game seriously for the past 100 hours or so, with only the Celestial Champ questline to go. As the title suggests, I can already sustain food and renewable resources (logs, reeds, etc.). I don't see a clear, distinguishable goal for me to work towards. I let days pass just sitting by the Scale Furnace and chomping meatballs. What can I build in my base that is useful or is eye candy? Here is my current base, all under 03 average-knob trees and the theme is forest/Walter. (the headache of building an aesthetic base made out of flammable material is the risk of wildfire and burning tumbleweed lol) Also I would love to see what your base looks like (: Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/160538-already-self-sustaining-what-else-is-there-to-build-as-a-solo-player/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkemal23 Posted November 5, 2024 Share Posted November 5, 2024 I know you ask for builds but I suggest it's time for you to go for the Celestial champion. You not only get Infinite tools but also Infinite storage and lighting, Sawhorse and Terra firma temper and a way to get new endgame trees from it aswell! Also I Love your base. I love how made it look so natural. Like something our survivors would make. 44 minutes ago, _mylilsunshine_ said: Also I would love to see what your base looks like (: Here's my last run: Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/160538-already-self-sustaining-what-else-is-there-to-build-as-a-solo-player/#findComment-1755990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChintzyGnat Posted November 5, 2024 Share Posted November 5, 2024 I just kinda go big and make it look pretty to me. But yeah cc would be a good thing to start expanding a base. I did build a kitchen but I don't have a screenshot atm.

Like something our survivors would make. Thank you! That was my intention as well. I wanted to build something homely, that looks like it's lived in. I'm not a fan of megabase with functional zones and cobble roads as far as the eye can see. My style is also the reason why I can't really build other things that can blend in well. The new Hallowed Night Maize Hay Wall skin really meshes well with the Victorian Stone Wall. 1 hour ago, ChintzyGnat said: I just kinda go big and make it look pretty to me.

Well only in 100 of those hours (recently) did I actually accomplish something lol. Every other world before this was spent whiffing around, surviving (not even thriving), fighting 04 seasonal bosses, and visiting the cave for lightbulbs. I never actually survived past 100-200 days, nor did I have the drive to play more. I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around the Celestial Champ questline and the new Shadow/Lunar Rift content. Also, I've played Path of Exile for more than those hours and I still suck at it.

I love how you use gems and bells, tickle my goblin brain. Although I don't think I could bring myself to live on Lunar Island solely because of the color filter :v Your Moon Dial inspired me.

stefunny Posted November 9, 2024 Share Posted November 9, 2024 I love how you have a theme for your base, and the skins you chose, it fits your whole forest vibes well! Coincidentally, I'm also procrastinating the CC fight right now, I did everything leading up to it and currently have the inactive Celestial Tribute at my base, but I'm kinda intimidated so i'm just procrastinating the inevitable haha. Unfortunately I started with a very rigid/form over function style of base setup in my current world, so right now it's been tough trying to make stuff look nice and natural. (so, sorry no screenshots haha) I do have some plans! Eventually I'm looking to build a saladmander enclosure, a 'zoo'/nature park with koalefants and various mobs + a huge kitcoon nursery build. I haven't experienced the yearly events so i'm excited to use event-specific items to decorate too! After I defeat CC though, which will probably take a while... I definitely relate to the 'let days pass and chomping on meatballs feeling', so apart from building I also plan to unlock all scrapbook entries using my current world and am currently slowly working towards that goal. Good luck with your base building! ^^ Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/160538-already-self-sustaining-what-else-is-there-to-build-as-a-solo-player/#findComment-1756390 Share on other sites More sharing options...
