15 Quick Tips to Become a Legend:
---------------------------------
Written by The | Suit
These are Quick Tips for those players that don’t want to read through
a huge guide.
-=Quick Tips=-
1. Cryptobiotes stack to 999
There is no reason to save these mounds for later, you can gather upto
999 for later use in your inventory. So anytime you are walking around
hold “F” to gather multiple at once. Then you can eat them when you need
to fill a blood bag or your HP is low through your 4th menu.
2. Cargo Handling Rank and Container Damage Matters
While you may think your “Courier” grade is for show – doing Premium
delieveries and getting little to no damage affects your Cargo Handling
Rank. Which in turn increases your stability when carrying cargo.
So by performing well you also get buffs to passive traits!
3. Trikes can Ride Ladders
While it may seem crazy – you can use ladders as ramps and bridges for bikes.
Though the maximum angle is roughly around 45 degrees, you can still use
ladders quite creatively to help make traveling to areas normally you wouldn’t
be able to much easier.
4. Parry Cord Take Downs
While you can use your cord to do mule takedowns in Stealth. You can also do
Takedowns in combat anytime the mule’s back is facing you.
This also allows an advanced parry takedown move- the second you parry turn
around and perform a takedown instead of punching. *Important Note* while
takedown animation is happening enemies can still move around meaning if
there are other enemies nearby you are likely going to take damage right
after the parry takedown animation finishes.
5. Deconstruct other players bad Structures
There are a lot of poorly placed player structures such as bridges between
two rocks that actually blocks both paths. Deconstruct them from your world
so you have higher chance of getting a player item that knows what they are
doing.
6. There is no harm in giving more than one Like
You can actually give multiple likes at once by bashing 5 until the white bar
runs out. There is no limit how many likes you can give per day only limit to
how many likes you can give per structure.
7. You can get Chiral and Custom Equipment multiple times!
Chiral and Custom Equipment are unique rewards by Preppers after you achived
at least 3 star rank. Custom Equipment include things like Custom Hemo-Grenades,
Light Weight Ceramics, or High Density Special Alloy etc.
After achieving 5 stars with them, after a few deliveries more you can get more
of the unique item provided by that individual! So don’t stop deliveries when
you hit 5 stars!
8. Snow Zip Lines
Setting up a Snow Zipline Network takes time but saves so much time. Becareful
where you place it as when you land you may fall off , but you do it right you
can zip across mountain tops to deep snow locations in no time. (Also great for
crossing giant gaps in terrain).
9. Scanner Cancelling and the 2 second rule
Once you reached the Timefall Farm you will unlock the Scanner Cancel Ping Upgrade.
To do this properly first cross into mule territory the first ping will happen.
Count 2s then use your ping. This will cancel the “location” ping preventing Mules
from knowing you crossed into their territory.
10. Lethal Weapons are not meant for Main Area
If you kill someone using Lethal Weapons you have to dispose of the body in an
incinerator. Which isn’t worth it. Lethal Weapons are actually meant for specific
“Massive Storm” events which the game tells you about in advance. So if you hear
an NPC talk about a “Massive Storm” change your gear to lethal. Otherwise stick
to non Lethal weapons.
11. When you use Bolas kick the enemy unconscious
Many times when you use a Bola on an enemy they will remain conscious and break
out. After you hooked them walk upto them and kick them to knock them unconscious.
Note they can still be woken up by another mule.
12. Always carry 2 PCC when using vehicles
You never end up wanting to be in a situation where you are carrying a ton of
cargo in your Truck only to run out of battery in the middle of no where.
Having 2 PCC will give a wide safety net to save you from a bad situation.
13. Keep an eye on Equipment Durability
Common mistake new players make is to think only Cargo is affected by Timefall.
Even equipment like Skeletons, Boots, PCC, Ladders, etc are affected by time
fall also unlike Cargo repair spray won’t fix it. So anytime you drop back at
base mouse over your equipment to see how much damage they have taken to replace it.
14. Use Ex 2 grenades for Farming Chiral
You get Ex 1 and 2 grenades by Drinking and Eating. Drinking is easy as you can
always drink the Stamina drinks in your Private room. While Ex 2 requires you to
eat Cryptobiotes which eventually appear in your private room. The more you eat
and drink the more grenades you get.
Use Ex 2 grenades by throwing them on the ground near a group of Bts. This will
bring all the BTs to one center area and you can throw a Custom Hemo-Grenade or
2 Normal Grenades to kill the whole group.
Custom Hemo-Grenades from Craftsmen are better because they “Spread” in a much
larger AoE. as well as do a ton more damage.
15. Blood Areas are “Weak points” on Tar Monsters
When you throw a blood grenade you will create a Red Zone on the monster.
These become “Weakpoints” for projectile weapons.
Hit those points for bonus damage!
Farming Materials Tips:
-----------------------
Written by Kalium.
Chiral Crystals: return to the prologue map in Capital Knot City and farm chiral
crystals with the BTs, because they are weaker and easier to deal with and this is
the only type of material that remains with you after passing through Port Knot
City to Lake Knot City. But.. another way to deal with it can be killing gas bags,
it’s easier to deal with them, but the amount of chiral crystals will be much less
than defeating a BT. You can find them at northwest craftsman and going southwest
from Incinerator west of Lake Knot City;
MULA Territory: It’s interesting to shoot some mules with bola gun (trust me, at
some point in the game you’ll wish a lot to have had this practice before , but to
save time, a good option is from the moment you have a bola or maser gun, take two
and go for them. Tie and knock out each of the mules to safely loot your fields,
in addition to taking the drops that they carry with them. Another tip, put a Post
Box near their territory so you can store the material there whenever possible,
so it’s easier for you to pick it up with a vehicle, instead of in the middle of
the mess. Other thing you could do is just.. kill them, but in that case you’ll
spend more time to take them to the closest incinerator you have, otherwise a
void out will come;
Distribution Centers, Cities, Waystations and Preppers: Make the deliveries to
level up the connection with them (5 stars). Each level you receive an extra
amount of materials, as well as increasing the maximum storage capacity of the
place. In addition, repeated material delivery quests also increase the amount
stored in the recipient;
Recycle: if you are on foot making deliveries and you still have the capacity
to put more cargo, take whatever you can find from deliveries that can no longer
be delivered because they have been spoiled. Upon arriving at your destination,
recycle everything that cannot be returned and them obtain more materials;
Preppers: Some preppers, after a certain level of intimacy you have with them,
start to provide you, as a gratitude, with each mission accomplished, supplies
(Only S Rank evaluation). One of the most important is from Spiritualist, which
will give you chemicals (important for leveling ziplines, for example).
Tips and Tricks:
----------------
-=Draw the path you are going to be travelling in=-
A lot of people usually forget use the way point markers to point where the path
is going to take them, you can take advantage of this tool to prepare all the
equipment that you are going to need, specially if you use the right analog stick
to see the different heights of the terrain ahead and specially for trickier
deliveries (Another tip for this is to see where other porters have travelled to
maybe find another route you had not thought about).
-=Always have a backup equipment=-
Every porter has been in a situation where just one more ladder could have made
the delivery way easier than it was, that is why it is important to always bring
a spare set of equipment “just in case” in my experience, an extra ladder and an
extra set of climbing ropes should be enough to get you out of any unexpected
terrain.
-=Use all the space you are given=-
The things you can carry are not limited by the space in your backpack, Sam’s suit
has several different attachments for different parcels or equipment that you may
use, a good example of this is the boot hanger that the backpack has in which you
can store 2 extra pairs of working boots, just in case that you forgot to bring
some and yours were looking torn, later down the line you will also get access to
utility pouches for the backpack, in which you will be able to expand the use that
your backpack has!
-=Pick up any materials that you can=-
During your deliveries, you will be able to find 2 types of packages in the world:
lost packages and material cases, the lost packages are a good way to get extra
points for your delivery score and a nice challenge to add to your current delivery,
but material cases should be prioritised, material cases have lots of different
uses, from being able to contribute to building a road, to making the valuable
equipment that you need, to even being able to knock a MULE out in a satisfying
swipe (hold a package on your right hand when you do this, remember, Sam is right
handed) material cases are tougher than your average package and are easier and
more useful, so if you can spare the space and weight, go for it.
