Sebster22 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Well after a long preparation time of cautiously setting up Thulecite equipment and reviving mechanical clockworks, the fight against the Ancient Guardian was swift and the loot, especially being the first time i had gotten this far, was sweet.Thinking to myself with Thulecite armor plating and a fully charged mining helmet, and as a 100% upgraded WX with full stat bars "I've done it, nothing can beat me now! I can go back up to retrieve a Deerclops eye, return to the Ruins and finally craft a Houndius Shootius!"This confidence quickly evaporated, as the Nightmare Stage kicked in and i was surrounded by Terrorbeaks. After gaining some distance from them, in a very panic-y mood especially after defeating the Endgame content boss, i mis-clicked. Rather than eating a Meaty Stew to get myself back to full, i pushed click to eat whilst hovering over a certain irreplacable mythical beast's horn.TLDR; I ate the Guardian of the Ancient's Horn by accident and swiftly ragequittedTurns out there is room for mistake even after you've defeated the hardest enemy (If this story doesn't belong here you can move it wherever you like) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always fight it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeoSS69 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Horn shouldn't be edible. That's all i have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebster22 Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Horn shouldn't be edible. That's all i have to say.Would you say the same for the Deerclop's Eye?Because i remember when that had no crafting recipies so i ate it for the kicks, which instantly drove me to insanity But i guess that kind of mistake was justified.

Sebster22 Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 I guess technically all items are renewable, what with the teleportato.But that's a hell of a lot of hassle to ask the player to find a cave, get a setup, re-establish a base, re-explore the caves and re-prepare (?) for fighting a 100 damage 2500 hp boss just because of a single missclick and them wanting to see the endgame weapon-structure.

Boar Head Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Just spawn another horn if you really want to. I would've done it for sure if I lost it to a misclick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynical Cynicist Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 There's a little hidden script, which deletes your save game, if any mods or cheats are detected and the world continues onto day 1000...unfortunately, anyone who uses mods or cheats isn't capable enough to get that far. Nah just kidding. Nothing will explode. Just spawn it with the console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause of Death: Starvation. ironically had a world where there were almost no berry bushes I moved to and it almost happened. After all, why would I need to bring food since they always have plenty (and like to save carrots for winter.) But eventually, got enough food (but those first three days were tricky.)
