      Brief reminder Syntac: Enforcers' "food" is element dust, and if they lose all their Energy, and can't consume Element Dust to regain it, they instantly self-destruct like Meks, instead of gradually losing health like "living" creatures.

    You need to tinker those 150 blueprints with some of the high level scout prints. Yes, it is a gamble in that you can end up with a useless scout print, but you can get a ridiculous enforcer blueprint out of the tinkering bench with just stable combine.

    For the replicator bp you get from drops; I personally had a mod installed called automated ark, its a little bit of an early-mid game rebalance but it let me craft the replicator in it before unlocking it via titans. There is also a fridge in that mod that lets you keep corrupt nodules, organic polymer, etc. for longer and increases their spoil timers.

    Combine 3 wild enforcer bps in the bench, the combined bp (unlike the wild dropped ones) can be craft skilled. You can then kill the resulting one for its bp. Do that 3x then combine *those* for another one that can be craft skilled. The max lvl for an enforcer is 401 and its pretty amazing at that level

    Hey Syntac, you should combine some higher level enforcer blueprints all into one super enforcer blueprint in the tinkering bench. I’ve had some decent luck with the bench, getting some higher levels. Scouts unfortunately don’t work, but they still come out as ascendant which is pretty funny. The enforcers won’t show any stats on their blueprint if you combine them, but they still have levels like normal.

    Yeah the enforcers are pretty good. You level it like crazy carefully and it can dominate in OSD's. Crazy weight and speed in the meantime for resource runs. Once you have fistbumped utility and endgame mounts like crazy obviously who cares. But this map is perfect to get one at the right time, so much dust and metal, you should have got it way earlier in progression.
    But I mean this map can be a tough start. You got a thyla levelled, argy, now they don't matter. But as your 1st OP creature, a 130 purple tier, cheaper, earlier, grind for it asap. 👌. I like to start in the city, get a decent raptor, farm all robots for mats, the right blueprint, and go for that. Only a lucky Rex and Argy start would be better. I'm glad to see the Ascendant don't seem to have any inherent bonuses. Thought they would at that price, but never risked it. Get a high purple early when applicable.

    About the dog, i heard that sometimes after "death" in companion mode dog can simultaneously leave companion mode and will then stand still at it's "death" place.
    P.S I could have gotten some details wrong so please correct me if needed.
