Things you had to die/suffer before finding out

[Spinorex]

If I stop walking anywhere in a swamp besides a path, I will be slapped to death by a tentacle hiding in the muck. Always.

[Rosten]

Tentacles look like they have an AOE attack, but its really only single target

not sure if this counts, but its an interesting tip nontheless

[Ortorin]

Tentacles look like they have an AOE attack, but its really only two single targets

not sure if this counts, but its an interesting tip nontheless

You sure? i was fighting one earlier with chester and it only attacked him not me as well, if thats what you mean

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the tentacles hit both in front of and behind themselves with each whip motion?

 

So like, were you standing to the side while this fight was going on?

No, i was actively attacking the tentacle using chester as bait

[Gazerrath]

Don't think that you can grow a meat farm with a lureplant, or your base will end up with an eyeplant infestation.

Chester--> O --o-- <--- tentacal whiping back and forth on this line

        you--->  =)

 

Was the setup like this?

 

*edit* I just realized I'm semi-thread derailing here... but it is for a good cause! *pained smile*

It was more like 

O --o-- >

 

O - Chester

--o-- - Tentacle

> - Me murdering the tentacle

 

I just recreated exactly that with a knight on the otherside using debugspawn 

[Rosten]

Yea, you see that frog?

Looks like easy meat eh?

Really?

You wanna go there?

Be my guest.

Pengulls are harmless!

 

Except when they're not.

A certain chest will suddenly make it winter.

[Nyx_Overkill]

-Never leave Maxwell without Night Armor.Seriusly.Forget backpack except if u using mod.

-Walk on Marsh with at least one type of armor

-Lighting rod on your base and on wood field.Seriusly

-Never underestimate caves and ruins

-Avoid long trips in Winter or if u do so,have a backup plan or teleport or probably u will die by hounds/cold/night.

-Have a second armor on your intentory.If armor brakes the second one will auto equipped,otherwise if you dont have you will die.Also dont keep armor with less than 10%.

-Learn how to kite

-Dont leave part of caves with spider nests generating except if you dont pass from this part for ever.Otherwise you will have an area infested with insane swarms.

-Always equip some armor before fight anything

-Warm well up your heatstone and use a winter hat or something before fight something in the Winter.

 

[the truthseeker]

Big Pengull swarms hurt. Attack with care and kite one far the [censored] away before hitting it again. 

[HoneyHam]

Or don't screw with them.

[gnarlytreeman]

when in doubt it can kill you.

 

when i first started playing i though the game was all about resource/food management, then i encountered hounds, then spiders, then first winter and the every winter deerclopses.

 

if it moves it can kill you..... cept bunnies.

[papermoon]

...and butterflies.

[Boar Head]

Trying to walk through a swamp without armor isn't a good idea. (Walking Cane didn't exist at this time)

[aredshroom]

Earlier, I nearly died due to the cracks on the first level of caves. Didn't know they spawned crawling horrors on the first level too, did not bring a single weapon (was planning to mine and bail).

[Hugo M.]

This is a perma-death game.

[fritoz]

one of my big DOH moments was i was so happy with my little base made of straw walls... until a mob of fire hounds burned my whole base with me in it to the ground !!!

also, that when you go full on crazy the shadows materialize and can indeed kill you.

beefalo go into rut, when they show their red butts watch out! they will attack you!

[fritoz]

also forgot to add (even though its been said already):

 

lighting rods are your base's best friend!

[gnarlytreeman]

oh, and also don't pick black flowers..... especially not to just burn them for ash.

[Deacon_Blue]

Speaking of, why do people keep evil flowers? There are much better ways of obtaining nightmare fuel.

A nice way if you want to get it when you want to stay on base if you just need a few to use as "filler" to your goal. Not used for regular production IMHO.
