Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Is the first Pirate Raid supposed to be tough? I convinced the captain to let me do it alone, and when the Black Eels come it seems like it's going to be a really tough fight.

So I looked at some saves, the torch switches between 60-120 and 40-80 on both 18 WILL and 3 WILL chars. Anyone know the trigger?

I had extreme trouble as a swordsman even with the pirates, had to spam grenades. If you're ranged it's laughably easy. They have snipers and you can't use your shield on a jet, if you disembark you get netted.

All the raids are tough. Though I was playing melee. Hit and run tactics work well. Kill a few of the escorts, leave the map, reappear on the other side. Alternatively, you could try boarding the ship, that way you can activate your shield. Also, if you haven't already, get some jet ski training from Razor.

Seems iffy, the wiki mentions no such thing as the damage depending on Will and only displays the one with 40-80 damage. Tbh, I feel like the damage should scales off Will like psi spell damages scales off its corresponding school skills.

I don't mind it being more useful to non-PSI (since PSI is so OP anyways), I'd like to know the logic behind it.

I found the difficulty decreased with each raid. The 2nd one gets destroyed by EMPs, and the 3rd one is without a jet ski (so much easier, admittedly I solo stealthed it with TNT).

He got me after I rifted in, but I think there's just a time passed variable. Try leaving the game on for a while, or CE x50 speedhack.

So my laserface jones is doing reasonably well, but having zero evasion is very painful. Shield helps a lot against guns but crossbow enemies usually kill me. I guess I need to craft better armor but I've joined Coretech for the electronics parts and I haven't seen good vest/armor components anywhere. Is the vendor in Fort Apogee a good source of armor parts? I might do some quests for the protectorate to get access to that.

Someone should add the map to the wiki, Candide maybe?

I agree the map would be nice to have on the wiki but this one is not complete. Hey Damianus_NT if you ever complete the Black Sea map I'd be happy to post it to the wiki (or you can post it yourself, anyone can register there now).

Oh, didn't know that, saw you were a contributor.

The map's pretty good, I'd just put it up - Expedition is still a WIP and it's much better than nothing. Should prob wait for permission from Damianus_NT though.

Him and University armory are pretty good, though Oculus can also have them.

You could try a double low frequency shield with increased capacity, but my gunslinger's way of dealing with stealthed enemies is to chuck a flashbang or a molotov into a suspicious area. Usually it destealths & incapacitates them.

You aggro'd the Hopper by trying to attack them or using a debuff on them like nets. For whatever reason this makes it harder to cage them.

Tbh I don't get why that quest has so many factors tied to it, like having a cooldown on cages. If your character is so based as to be able to cage all 3 hoppers in one turn, why not allow you to do it?

Locust hives are really getting on my nerves. With bio and mechanical resistance they are no threat, but their turns take FOREVER. I cleared a map of 3 hives and I checked the time on the savefiles afterwards - it had taken me a whopping 15 minutes.

On one turn I tried using a grenade to cull their numbers and make my next turn come faster. I had 90% accuracy but of course this time my character had to throw the grenade halfway to Dis and hit nothing instead. :negative:

I wish their numbers were decreased and their individual strength buffed or something. Burrower spawn are also guilty of draining real-life time (but not nearly in the same league).

Is nimble worth it if I'm only using leather armor with about 20-30 armor penalty?

How much movement points do I lose with 30 armor penalty anyways?

By the way, how much mercantile is necessary to get to 95 effective with hypercerebrix and 7 base intelligence, along with 60 base persuasion?

Use the Force Luke!

You will lose exactly 30% of your movement points comrade!

Someone could help me? I'm playing Underrail a lot. The game runs great on my 10 years old laptop. But when I launch the game, it takes an awful amount of time to launch, like minutes on that loading screen. Inside the game everything is pristine, with loading areas for only 10 seconds or so. I googled for answers, but with no avail. My config is Intel i7, 740qm, 1.7ghz Geforce gtx 460m, 6gb ram and I use an SSd for the operational system. I'm using windows 7 home edition and I have Avast as antivirus. I found something about Avast related to the problem, but the actual version don't has the option to disable, I don't know why. Any tips or answers would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance bros!

PS: GOG version here, with Expedition installed and updated to the last version.

Same thing happens to me since the expansion, similar specs. Seems to be a widespread issue.

I've looked in every single zone with the natives and I can't fucking find this damn symbol. Anyone have any idea?

Do you still need the location of the rune? It's on the bone hammer I think or maybe the rock behind it. It doesn't show up when pressing tab but you can click it for a comment.
