Should I even use a backup weapon as a psi character? I don't find my pistol/smg very useful, but that could change once I play more of the game
Stuck anon are you still around? Think I might found how you can proceed.
>>323000192
A pure psi? Nah. You'll be fine without any weapons. Only thing I keep in my hands is the jackknife.
>>323000228
Which stuck anon? I'm the one with the eternal 2 canisters in Tchort's gate, lost all hope already.
>>323000324
welp guess i am restarting to remove guns and min/max
which crafting skills do I need as a pure psi character?
>>323000464
Not you breh,sorry. I mean an anon that did his CC, Rail Crossing & Foundry quests but never got the go ahead for the Tchort institute.
>>323000519
Electronics mostly, with a bit of biology for your headband, and some Mechanics and tailoring for your armor.
Yes, basically everything. Mostly electronics and mechanics though.
>>323000464
there's supposedly more than three canisters you can find, i know another anon in an older thread found that out when he had your same problem.
<--- Hex Editing anon here, i wish i knew how to modify item stack sizes for ya. Upload your save at the door and ill take a look?
>>323000464
>>323000841
Acshually... I've never done that bit so don't quote me BUT I remember someone mentioning a bug with what you seem to be describing, where if you don't put all 3 canisters at the same time, you get locked out.
underrail sounds like undertale
>>323000915
>i wish i knew how to modify item stack sizes for ya
I'm sorry if I'm missing something, but that shit's easy with CE, is it not? Unless you mean modifying the item limit in the stack.
>>323000915
>>323001147
Thanks for the offer, but it`s hopeless. I`ve already found the fourth canister and used cheat engine to change its stack size to 3, but there`s stiĺ only 2 canistwers after I place them all.
>>323001572
Try sending your save file to Styg. He's pretty cool about these things, and he's helped fix issues in the past.
I'm trying to stay friendly with the faceless this time around, but I can't figure out where this trap door I'm supposed to go through is.
>>323001836
Trap door that leads to Buzzer's? It's 2 maps south of Rail Crossing. Stick to the eastern part of the map and you'll come across a sentry or 2. Trap door itself is in a small shack all the way south of the 2nd map.
>>323000850
I think I finally have a good grip on the game mechanics but I'm still debating including perception purely to see secrets
are any of them good or do they just skip a locked door here and there?
so how long until we hate this game
>>323002084
I can't say for certain myself, as I haven't gotten too far with higher per builds, but I'm pretty sure it's as you say, with extra loot here and there. Feel free to get some other opinions on that though.
>>323002084
If all you care about is the secrets, just get Snooping. A loss of a feat is less important than the loss of 3 Stat points.
Gonna start new character for second full playthrough.

I CAN'T FUCKING DECIDE! Too many options, man. But I love it.
Last run was with a pure thought-control + psychokinesis psyker. Was interesting but dodgy.
that feel when you find the bunker at the foundry, seems like a sweet place to call home
I'm wondering if the previous owner goes to jail and you can see him there or if I should just kill him to take his key?
>Trying to grab the Undertale(tm) hype
>ame your game Underrail
Epic. Simple and really epic.
>>323002084
16 per here, perception seemed neat, but ultimately there's fuck all secrets. Early game there's one secret every 3 screens. mid game every 5, late game every 10
>>323002581
Everything is fun.
Sniper with pistol is my favorite, but I use tac vests instead.
>>323001964
Ah, found it. Totally forgot about this shack. Cheers.
>>323003247
Look how stylish this overcoat is. Come on, how can you choose tac vests over that, for a sniper?
>>323002581
Try pistols only.
10 DEX at char creation, all pistol feats (especially gunslinger, rapid fire and point shot) and every other point in DEX, rapid reloader mod.
You should be able to hit the 4 AP per shot floor with 7.62, or get 8 shots with 9mm (or 10 with rapid fire and point shot, or even 13 with adrenaline on top of that)
>>323002928
would you recommend taking it down to 3 and adding the points somewhere else?
>>323003421
Tac vest with overcoat has night vision goggles, and if you don't wear those you ain't a sniper.
Muh immersion.
I dare you to post a better bow
>>323003632
>implying I don't have goggles in my helmet
>>323003553
Not him, but as a pure Psi, I went 10 cont, 10 will, 8 int.
>>323003810
Doesn't match the sprite then.
I can't do with this.
>>323003965
Sprite mods when?
>>323004027
Sprites are expenisve to make, both in money/time, so not soon, if ever.
Not to mention riot gear penalty is a little too high for my liking. Remember, every point less in stealth is less damage from Snipe.
oi jacks
i cant fucking decide on what offensive skill i should go for
help me out here
>>323003730
>30-61 damage for 25 AP
>can't use armor piercing ammo
>incurs 125% mech resistance
Damn, crossbows are suffering.
My spearhead sniper does around 55-120 for 24 AP, abd has 50% more damage on special attacks. Only 150% crit damage but it's enough to one shot everything anyway.

I think you should reread that post anon.
So I just got the ability to clear rubble with TNT, and I decided to go check out the sewers north of SGS. There is a big fuckin lurker base down there, i'm assuming i'm not strong enough to fight these guys off? I keep thinking i'm doing ok against this huge cluster of them, then suddenly I get oneshot by what i'm assuming is a sniper from out of my field of view.
Lv9, pure psi build.
>>323006476
Snipers will be obe shoting you regardless, that's what they are all about, you need to have a good energy shield/anti rifle tac vest/tanky build to survive.
Or kill them first.
>>323006476
nope, avoid them
I could kill them by dropping a molotov on them or setting up traps that enabled me to shoot around a corner but I'm a stealth crossbow
should I have high constitution as a psi build or should I just tough it out and wait for force fields/energy shields?
>Beds are interact-able items
What is the meaning of this? And how the fuck have I just figured this out after like 80 hours?
>>323007168
high const is very very useful
7 is a good mark
>>323007308
>He hasn't visited the whorehouse in Core City.
Where can I get bottles early game? Nobody is selling them or mushroom brew and I need to burn Depot A to the ground.
>>323005947
>>323007023
>>323007063
Right now i'm slowly killing my way through the base, as long as I avoid the huge cluster of dudes in the middle I think i'll be ok. Just fucked up some butcher guy and got some nice loot for my trouble. I'm not fucking up some quest by doing this am I?
>>323007483
>implying "no prostitutes" isn't the biggest complaint everyone has with the game
And to be fair I find being able to mess with the covers more out there than having text "sex".

Aww yis
Is it meant to do this or am I just at a perfect amount of hp to not fall to 85% when I cast it?
>>323008795
Its graphics style is charming in its own way.
Haven't played yet. Should I go Oddity or Classic modo? Oddity sounds gimmicky and unfun but I wonder if Classic is somehow more of a grind?
>>323009060
Oddity, fag. Says right there it's what the game was designed for.
>>323009203
no it doesn't
>>323009304
He must've changed it fairly recently then. What patch are you on? 1.0.0.7?
>>323009304
It defaults to normal and oddity, this is because this is what the game is balanced around
play oddity, it is i suppose somewhat gimmicky but its also fun
>>323009862
>>323009829
newest patch, and okay
i don't know what the fuck i'm even doing with all these skill options but i just maxed all psi shit and biology to do psi shit
wish me luck
i hope Snooping and Fast Metabolism aren't awful feats
where do i pirate this indie pixel game?
>>323010012
snooping is ok, fast metabolism is gud for psi builds which you are because dat full psi restore
honestly most of the starting talents are kinda shitty for psi, as soon as you actually get the ability to cast psi spells you unlock a range of good talents you couldn't take at chargen

That's not what I mean.
>>323011006
Drop excess shit off at SGS. In games with STR dependent carry weight and related perks, home trips always the best option.
>that equipment
Shouldn't you be using a utility belt or something?
>>323011006
Dude, everything from you last bolt until your first battery needs to be in a locker. As well as those grenades you aren't going to use. Also those grenades on your belt stack up to 10, why on earth did you split the stack?
>>323011189
I've got crap stashed everywhere, I just never know when I'll need x or y. Been meaning to go through my keys at least, but who knows when I'll do that.
As for by belt, I only use grenades once in a blue moon, so I just take the lifting belt for that 10% mech damage reduction.
>>323011286
The bolts could probably do with being in a locker too. As well as all the keys. And basically everything else. It's not because I keep them on me in case a merchant wants them or whatever. As for the gernades, I really have no idea why they're like that. I didn't split them myself, I'll say that much.
>>323011642
>grenades
You just picked up new ones. They don't add to the stack on your belt, you have to put them there manually.
>>323011719
And since I'm talking I might as well submit mine for inspection. Why the hell couldn't money stack higher than 999??
>>323011927

Is it possible to burn multiple targets when using Burst with the 8.6 special ammo?

no

I prefer tommy gun bursts with explosive ammo. It's basically a grenade launcher.

You don't.
I'm sorry.

>>323012782
>>323012861
Yeah that worked. There was also a locked door nearby that I could open instead so I did that, fuck wasting TNT
>>323013217
Actually scratch that. It only works before the camera spots you.
how long is the game? are there other hubs the size of the first one?
>>323013486
LONG. Yes, several.
>>323013217
>>323013151
>>323013128
So LoS is just a straight line? i figured it would be a cone
>>323013620
It's a cone, similar to your own sight, except not 360 degs. It works by tiles. You'll notice this when you go exploring and find out how your view is obscured by random columns and shit.
RIP Knife builds
RIP Sledge builds
Dev only cares about unarmed.
>Trying this hard to bank on Undertale's success
shameless
>>323014121
What happened?
So what are the builds you can do? It seems like this:
Pure psi (Psychosis)
Pure psi (Tranquility)
Psi/SMG
Psi monk
SMG/Pistol
Crossbow sneak
Sniper
Sledge
Unarmed
Knife
I heard sledge and knife falls off HARD after midgame, is that true? What are the other options? How would you rate these builds in terms of performance?
>>323014231
They found out that tanky sledge characters drop like a rock in terms of viability around the end of core city, and that sneaky knife characters are gimped by dodge and evasion having a hard cap of like 66% dodge rate, which also gimps them about the same time as sledge builds.
>>323014836
Assault rifle/whatever is certainly a viable build
>>323014836
Psi/pistol with execute should be viable as fuck.
Especially with chem pistols as they have shit range anyway and you won't be gimped that much by leaving your per at just 6.
>>323014836
>I heard sledge and knife falls off HARD after midgame
I can't speak for knife builds, but I have a well built sledge guy who is struggling in the mid game after feeling immortal during the early game.
I'm not getting the feeling that it's just a slight hiccup either, I think it's all downhill for the build from here on out. Enemies just start using too many different damage types other than mechanical, so you can't mitigate it efficiently at all.
Psi users become a very real problem and even with 10 Con, I'm having a hard time reaching them before they shit out damage. I have a high throwing skill too, to compliment my Sledge, but even with MK V grenades, it doesn't help as much as you would think.
If the whole dodge & evasion thing that >>323014905 says is true, then knife builds are probably in the same predicament. Maybe they even have it worse off.
>>323015438
One thing I think is a serious problem that I haven't seen a way to help so far and that you touch on is psi damage. Having it simply tied to resolve (apart from metathermics who can be somewhat mitigated by shields and elemental armor) and giving you no options to improve it other than leveling is... meh? Are psi-enemies even supposed to be that dangerous? I reckon there's something wrong when an advanced bowman/gunner can miss/get tangled up in your shield/not miss and still not do enough damage whereas an advanced psi-user can just combine mental breakdown and overload to 1HKO you and there's fuck all you can do except kill him first.
>>323015438
Are you DRUGGED UP anon? I'd wager a high level in Biology to make crazy drugs would probably be extremely useful to a melee build.
When is this coming to Linux?
>>323016317
Nigga, I have like 85 biology.
Actually, I have all of the crafting skills.
I've got my own custom made armor, weapon, grenades and energy shield.
I've got enough drugs on me to open up my own drug store.
>>323016420
>an obscure indie getting a linux port
>gaming with linux at all
I wouldn't hold your breath anon
Can you get an electrician's bench for your core city home?
I will try a knife build, but I don't understand how a knife build is supposed to not get fucked up in the early game, nevermind the mid game.
How do you deal with a group of enemies as a knife user? I mean sure, you stealth up, kill one, and then...? Deal with the rest how?
>>323016515
Hmm. Thats concerning then. It'd be kinda dissapointing if Sledge/knife builds were completely unviable.
>Walking through the Tchort temple electronics lab

How's the dialog in this game?
When do we start hating this game
Ok so I was here>>323012650 an hour ago
Now i'm out of the tunnels (I didn't finish exploring it so i'll have to go back) and into a giant system of caves after crossing a railroad? Holy shit I don't have a FUCKING clue where I am or where I'm going, there are crawlers falling out of my ass, and i've got no room for new loot. But I don't want to backtrack, this has to have a fucking end somewhere.
>>323016936
Pretty fuckin solid for a serbian to english translation. There is a large amount of descriptive text which I like.
>>323016986
It's no where near popular enough for /v/ to hate on instinct, and it probably never will be.
>>323015438
why not flashbang everybody before closing in? As for psi users, shouldn't your energy shield be eating most of that?
>>323017438
Psi users tend to resist flashbangs 80% of the time, but of course, I'm utilizing my throwing in every encounter. I didn't make all of these flashbangs, grenades and molotovs for nothing after all.
>As for psi users, shouldn't your energy shield be eating most of that?
Operative word being "should". Besides, it's the Thought Control Psi users (which are the more plentiful in the game too) who are causing the most issues, and Neural Overload bypasses shields and hits like a truck.
How do you get to Foundry?
>>323018258
Take the train or keep heading East from Core City until you see it.
So if I'm going to make a knife build, should I take the crafting skills to make my own knives, or are the unique ones you find good enough?
>>323018625
crafted shit >> shit you find
this is an almost universal rule
Does having your Strength at 3 reduce the damage you do in melee? I mean is there actually a penalty to it?

I play sneaky sledge build, have 0% armor penalty and use overcoat. Picked that trait that decreases armor penalty by 15% + gives you a bonus to dodge and evasion if it's at 0%.
>>323019286
absolute overkill, one critical shot from my spearhead killed him
>>323019319

>>323019286
Surgeon was an absolute pushover, weakest arena enemy by far. I killed him with like 5 SMG shots in one round.
I am level 12, should I try to kill Balor? or is that too low. The Ironheads are all wrecking my shit with 5 shots a turn + grenades
>>323019795
if you can kill him quickly it's easy, he patrols a path so you can set a trap for him and kill him without a bunch of enemies bumrushing you.
fuck guys i just stealthed through the tchort base and activated the elevator without getting detected, i dont even know what the fuck the elevator is or what it does and im not even supposed to be herebut now the faceless are attacking, and i still haven't been detected at the elevator, and i feel like a boss but i feel like i fucked EVERYTHING UP; there was a vent over in the western wing that was hidden with a perception check that let me get into the investigation wing i guess?
>>323019286
>>323012650
You can just go around. No lurkers there or anything like that (^:
>>323019953
yea, tahts the shit right now, the ironheads are piling up on me and fucking my asshole in a group
>>323012650
>>323020117
This was, to me, the most fun bits of Underrail, btw. Exploring the tunnels slowly and methodically getting raped by Lurkers and using your utilities smartly to rape them back, finding good loot and interesting shit.
The difficulty is the essential part: you really feel like you're moving forward, even if you're not bombarded with XP and phat lewt for every single fight. Clearing out and mapping the tunnels is fun by itself, not due to some Skinner box shit.

>>323019146
Stats below 4 tend to incur penalties, I think
>>323020734
Tchortists tooka cube
Faceless wantthis cube
dirka dirka faceless jihad
Reload and go do their quests first, they're fun.
>>323019319

Such is life in the Under-Underrail.
>>323020734
I did the same(except I went through the offices, and found the perception vent from the other side). Faceless are scripted to attack as soon as you call the elevator, regardless of how you do it.
Better reload and do all of the Tchortists' quests, they're fun and should net you like a whole level's worth of XP, at least.
>>323021085
With the perk it boosts my evasion/dodge to around 110 from the "real" 75, but desu I dont get hit much that often anyway because of sneak, get close to enemy, smash ENTER to initiate combat, smash them with sledge 3 times and restart stealth
With groups its just some patience with flashbangs+traps
>>323020647

Yeah nigga you're gonna get fucked up real soon. My sledge guy is level 16 now and he's just started getting the shit kicked out of him, especially against faceless and lurkers.

Seriously, how? I've never critted about 1,000 with psionics.
Got as high as 900.
My crit bonus, at that time, was about 230%, I think. Trance drug + neural overclocking.
>>323024946
-Mental Breakdown doubles neural overload damage on targets.
-You can get +30% Crit Damage on a Feat for Psi Abilities
-Psi Headbands can boost your crit damage by 60% on a good craft

-Trance gives +100% Crit Damage

Psi unarmed monk with powerfist teleproxy emission build is literally infuckingsane. I'm a full psi build with no unarmed talents, and i can punch a nigga and hit him seven+ times with different damage types on each one, its accidentally my backup damage spec when i feel like punching things.

AP's always at 50 regardless of stats, I think.
>>323023657
Got around 250 here, answer's no. They still make you out real quick if you're next to them, it just lowers the detection radius and slows down the detection time.
>That last fight in Arena
OOOOOHH FUCK
Was not expecting that, Arena has to be my favourite part of this game already.
The one on one aspect and figuring out how to handle your enemy is unreal.
>>323025348
That settles it then. Next playthrough I'm going full Psi.
I've never heard of this game and then suddenly there's a shitton of threads about this all the time. what is it? kinda makes me think of shadowrun
>>323027035
>tfw taking him on as a stealthy knife wielder

>>323027205
Remember to go psychosis not tranquility. It's for the real big dick damage.
>>323027316
There are similarities, but this is more combat focused then Shadowrun. Pirate it if you like it buy it etc
>>323027316
It's what those Shadowrun games should have been.
>>323027449
>>323027453
would I like it if I didn't like shadowrun?
>>323027490
depends, why didn't you like shadowrun?
>>323027527
I... honestly can't recall now. It's been 3 years. well maybe I'll look at some gameplay of this and see if it interests me
>>323027449
>>323027205
To be fair, I'm Tranquility.
Psychosis doesn't really give you more damage , just more crit chance. For a full psi spec i would suggest tranquilityyou can only pick one, and the other becomes locked
>>323027818
>an on demand crit
>not more damage
bruh
>>323027883
fuck you i never found a doctor's belt okay
>>323027818
>For a full psi spec i would suggest tranquility
Then you'reslightlyretarded. I'd call you full retarded but Tranquility isn't actually bad either, it's just slightly inferior.
I'd actually recommend Psychosis for a pure Psi build, and Tranquility for a hybrid one.
How the fuck do I deal with crawlers? They stab me, I cacoon myself in forcefields so they can't take advantage of the stun, then after the field wears away combat just stops and they do the same to me a few seconds later.
JUST
STAND STILL AND LET ME HIT YOU

>>323027818
I like Tranquility. It lets me play around with so many situational weapons, combine them, look for combo opportunities. Sure in some cases I die a lot and the dice roll can fuck me in the ass, but I have a feeling if I went Psychosis I would be just tossing Cryo-orbs at everything which sounds rather boring.
>>323028041
>I'd actually recommend Psychosis for a pure Psi build, and Tranquility for a hybrid one.
Agreed, that seems to be the most optimal path to take.
On a scale from 1 to timed underwater escort mission with bethesda tier AI how hard will massacring faceless fuck me over in the rape caverns?
Can I save the institute from them?
>>323028048
It's ok I figured it out, the forcefield was unnecessary I just needed to place a trap where they are going to land after I get stunned.

>>323028041
>>323027883
>>323027818
>>323028257
I REGRET MY DECISION AND IM TOO DEEP TO REROLL PSYCHOSIS ALRIGHT
>>323028113
^^^ Honestly Tranquility technically is a 10-30% flat out psi point cost reduction for the first turn, and every turn you have full health.
That + Meditation +25 Psi means you can literally cast 30% more spells without recharging your psi points.
This logistically is nearly identical in value to an on-demand crit. Just utilized differently. If you're going Tranquility i would almost demand you get stealth so you can manually initiate fights (or have high initiative).
>>323028332
Get locus of control, or Psudo Spacial Projection (have it active while running around crawler caves).
>>323028421
>Locus of control the stun
>Set myself on fire
>Rape him with biolocation and fire
>>323028541
The Breakpoint between the paths is two turns. If you can keep your character at full HP for at-least two out of the four turns it takes Psionic Mania to cooldown, Tranquility beats the crit path out in damage.
>>323028541
There there anon, it's okay.
No but seriously, Tranquility is fine, I actually think the dev did a decent job on making the Tranquility and Psychosis line fairly balanced.
The main benefit to the Psychosis line though, other than Psionic Mania of course, is it incentivises going the crit route.
I know on my other Psi character, I never wanted to take any crit related things like Neural Overclocking due to it feeling like a waste.
On this character though, I'm critting quite often (Way more often that I expected) even without Psionic Mania activated, so I'm very happy with my choices.
>>323029172
debatable. crit path gives you more inherent crit chance.
>>323028541
>or have high initiative
I'm not sure how realistic that is on a pure psi build. I went with 8 agi thinking the initiative would help me but I still lose most of the rolls since my dex is 3.
>>323029857
>>323028541
I just quicksave often so that I can always get the jump on enemies, because i'll always know where they are. Quicksave before going around corners or into rooms, too ez.
fuck finally managed to kill Barlor, he wasn't even that hard, but those goddamn grenadiers
>>323029628
Non Debatable, Tranquility gives you an additional spell cast per turn period.
Psychosis Takes away a spell cast per turn, and adds +15% Crit chance, which is a net loss overall by purely mathematical standards. (15% Crit Chance with a +100% Damage chance = 15% damage boost average. You would need at-least +260% Critical damage modifier to make Psychosis result in more base damage than tranquility just letting you cast another psionic overload each turn.)
Psionic Mania gives an assured crit though, which bumps it up to the 2 Turn breaking point.
>>323030073
>>323030073
>You would need at-least +260% Critical damage modifier to make Psychosis result in more base damage than tranquility just letting you cast another psionic overload each turn.)
That is very doable. My build right now has a 120% crit damage boost and it's in its early stages. Add Trance which adds another 100% crit damage. The other 40% can be made up from better gear.
Also there is a drug that increases your crit chance by an additional 15%
The one thing in my build that I wish I had would be Survival Instincts.
Get low health and you'd be running around with a near enough 90% crit rate at all times.
>>323030059
I run psi/machinegunner and found that area to be a right pain in the ass.
The best option I found was to work my way in through the north, gets behind the main shack and whack the couple of guys at the south, then skirt the south taking out the other few there to thin them out.
Then I stuck mines next to Bear traps around corners leading to the back door in the south, filled that tiny room with beartraps and caltrops, then started the fight through the doorway into the room with the pool table.
It was a goddamn murder spree. With the front door blocked by stunned/incapacitated enemies, they would go flooding around the back. Every other turn you would hear a snap, then a boom. It was glorious.
There's like 12-13 guys including Balor plus 2 or so dogs on that map that all come running at the sound of an explosion, or if someone gets to an alarm.
>>323030564
I am running Meta/Pistol and I basically did the same, but with flashbangs and fire.
the only problem was when bombardiers and grenadiers would throw double grenades at me.
Barlor himself was easy, freeze and then unload AP ammo. Rinse and Repeat
>>323002581
Reminder that dodge and evade cap hard at 60%, making all pure-dodge no-tank builds worthless.
>>323030809
I had the feats for 2 less AP for SMGs, Pistols, etc, the 2 additional shots per burst, plus an SMG with a muzzlebreak on it granting 2 more shots per burst, plus the burst again for free on a kill with a burst once per turn feat, loaded with AP rounds.
I was doing 3 bursts of 7 rounds per turn. 4 with Adrenaline shots.
Everything dies so fast, but there are just so many of them there.
And I run out of ammo so frequently its horrible.
>>323028063
Kek.
>>322999438
What GUNS are you using, friend?
>>322999438
I want to do a Psi build, but I also want to be stealthy if possible.
Is there any way to make that happen in an effective manner?
>>323030056
May as well just play with a trainer at that point save scummer
Why aren't there any torches in this game? Surely a simple pocket torch would make life so much easier.
Yes, it would make you easier to shoot but you could also see better.
If it were bright enough, you might even blind your enemy.

Stealth works just fine with pure psi. Just remember the noisier stuff will attract more attention.
>>323031750
depends entirely on what you want to do
>>323031893
Cool. Now I just need to figure out where to sacrifice points for stealth.
