I would make a backdrop and keep rhe repulsor mod if them flying off the building is a problem. That way you have something to provide a backstop and a means to continue killing zombies with descent speed and aoe. The baton itself performed well. The base design just happened to make the launch feature inconvenient. I think a proper backstop would remedy that issue. Your reaction to the pool incident was awesome. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself and as always, thank you for the excellent content, commentary and positivity you consistently bring.
1:The trigger plate needs to go. Slap down a switch so you can put the door in the state you want it to be even when you aren't there. 2: Put a horde box in the hallway behind your horde base. Throw all of the repair materials you need into it, and some extra meds/food/drinks. No more forgetting steel, iron, electronic parts, ect. 3: Put a hole in the right wall, and wall up the current hole. Now you don't have problems with zombies falling unless you want them to.
for your repulsor conundrum - how about you build the wall where door are, and make an entry on your right? This way you will still AOE ragdoll everybody, but keep them in damage zone and not have to wait for them to return 10 stories up. The more crowded zombos are and the less room behind them the more they are hit by your aoe attacks. Also if you make entrance to the side, enemies would stop getting stuck at the corner of the door beyond your reach. I think those big doors may work against you there. And probably rerouting big door so they drop zombos when step ON rather than Off the plate. It seem like it just forces you sto stay still and not get hits on enemies slightly further away. If you move pressureplate a block or two back you'd still activate it easily when taking cover behind wall but you wouldn't be forced to stay in single spot all the time.
I think this is definitely the way to go! I'd also add some blade traps to the wall for when the zombies get sent flying from the AOE (partially for extra damage, partially for entertainment)
have you watched any of joshes older videos he has one where he made a pogo board for bears and one where he made a zed cannon i think the zed cannon has physicist he could use
Stun baton, late game you have to swing alot but, you are effectively unkillable. Th8s whole raid you got hit twice, only because you got too close. Nowhere near death, unlike some of your other hordes and other weapon loadouts.
Josh, I'm living in Vanity tower in my multi-player world and love seeing how different we both approach the base building. We had our pool broken and it flooded our garage as well!!! We were not so happy about it though, so glad you enjoyed it.
I'm currently living in the Serrano Estates which has a pool that story wise is a vehicle elevator for the bunker. The Zombies broke the floor of causing all the water to drop down to the underground bunker that before hand I filled with spikes and electric fences which in my mind multiples the shock effect due to water being good at conducting electricity. I also added SMG turrets for maximum Zombies carnage. Speaking of the Serrano Estates. Has anyone found it in a random gen world and if so is it still in the desert biome or can it be found in the other ones?
That was a pretty decent horde night. I think the switch plate should be changed over for a wall switch, but you do what's best for you I love that you were so excited about a flooded basement! It is pretty cool that that can happen now, but I would have been pissed 😂
@jawoodle i just had a hilarious thought and I could see you implementing it too. Set up the auto shotgun turret in a way that it takes pot shots at the zombies as they are yeeted off the building. zombie skeet shooting 2.0 hahahaha
Zap, flush and blend base is very cool! And having the pool flood into the basement really shows how much water physics has improved! Also cool. Time for the mop and bucket!
A update to the water physics would be the ability to path the water yourself. As in build a trench near a lake to make a moat around your base so the Zombies are forced to come across a drawbridge to get to you. Put electric fences in water with SMG turrets facing it which would then allow you to concentrate on one area.
Had to rewatch this, I was laughing way too much in chat earlier 😂 I still think you should put lights in the block underneath the mannequins, like an uplight
Josh, withthe water having flooded your basement, gave me an awesome idea for a Frocket Launcher base. If you had an underground base, with a hall coming down and around like a parkade, you could then have a pool in the bottom, while lobbing rockets at the swimmers. You couldn't get set on fire, and it would slow them a little. Also, demos would go chest down, and hitting their button would be harder when they're swimming 👍
I was talking with a friend last night and saying that the reason they put Jen in the burnt biome is because that was the only way they could get most people to go there. Perfect validation hehehe
The burnt biome should really be the step before the wasteland. They need to give it a better loot level, some unique POI, and unique zombies. I really think the burnt biome should have a huge increase to the burning zombie spawn rate and I think those zombies should be buffed to have like a 50% chance to set you on fire when they hit. Having Jen be the only reason to step foot in the burnt biome is really lame. Every other biome has features that make it worth visiting. Snow and the animal spawns in the Winter, Yucca and Oil in the Desert, loot level and challenge in the wasteland.
@stevecole90099 even giving the burnt zombies a health and or damage buff for being in the burnt biome is a great idea. And I would also think that they need to bring in a unique resource for that biome. Something like coal only spawning there would be really good. And thematically it makes some sense
I dislike what they did to Jen, they made her too flirty and its annoying. The only female trader and ofcourse she is flirting🙄 They forgot woman like this game too. I rather have a mean or cool female trader, one that lost her arm or something Its awkward she flirts tbh
They are just helping themselves with those intrusive thoughts of jumping from the roof to the pool. You just need a backstop to keep the Zs from flying off the hoard base ledge.
Over course of time, I learned so much about rich australian culture and their language. I learned so many new words and expressions, such as galah, froth, bonza mate, dollary doo, trady potaty, sugar t**ty, flappy f**cks, and many more. Great episode, especially the basement.
This is when the stunny really needs it's proper steel tier version. The baseball bat would be struggling at this point too in all fairness (comparable damage).
Sadly at this rate I'm not sure if it's even in the plans anymore. TFP seem to hate anything that makes the game "easy" and the SB is already a solid weapon, especially in a group setting.
@@kennethmorgan8795 I mean, TFP seem to hate everything that makes the game fun at this point. I only play overhauls these days myself. I, like woodle, did one vanilla run. They've stripped out so many good things from the game it's basically a different game than when I bought it back in A15.
Maybe make some land mines and put them on a "yeet platform" instead of a backstop. Make a minigame out of next horde night where you can yeet some zombies onto some landmines. Zap, propel, boom, and they might go flying even higher. Sure you'll lose a bit of XP, but it's worth the entertainment.
I put the SMG turret pointing nearly straight up and then I put a motion sensor higher up pointing at the roof only set to zombies only with a 45 second power time. The motion sensor blocks power drain until a turkey gets in turret range and quickly powers the turret back down when there's nothing left to kill.
I like a tunnel 1 block wide and 2 blocks high at least 2 blocks deep with a funnel on the outside and an electric fence right next to the ladders blocking. This lets me maximize the ragdoll for the repulsor mod. I have a small room with the generator and some storage chests for loot. I do not like the narrow beams because I do longer days so the loot bags will go away after a while. They drop the bags before knocking them back unless the electricity itself kills them later. Put a steel door on the back and iron spikes on top. If you do not want them knocked back too far then put a fence across from you. You need the garage door on a switch, not a pad so you can open it and do maintenance in there. No I like the 10% per swing. This gives you a chance of a one punch. Can you fix the hole in the pool and get rid of the water (and refill the pool)? Does it keep getting deeper down there? Cool but it sucks at the same time. Demos should drop loot bags. I wonder if they are planning a full sized DLC with say a new biome with a new trader and POI. Then do a new perk tree with an armor set and weapons to go with it (I want to see a flame thrower for the ranged) as well as a book set. I want new mods, food, plants, recipes... and a new turret, workstation, and vehicle... They need to separate things so the turrets are not under the batons so you can have a 3rd level of batons... I would love to see an ending mission if you max the affinity with all the traders (you do not need to do it if you do not want to). Add in a few fixes and such like the honk to enter the traders (maybe after you talk with them the first time). Speed travel a little on roads... say 5% on dirt roads and 10% on paved (and maybe a book or perk to double that). I would love to see some survivors in the game... special POI and random encounters. Maybe let you do missions for new skins on weapons, armor, and vehicles... and maybe buy a dog that you can put at your base (place a dog house) and you can bandage it to revive it or it will respawn in its doghouse a while later. Maybe mods for the dog too (armor, cybernetics, spikes...). I do not think I would want it as a follower though. There is soooo much they can do with this game. Fire spreading mechanics and damage to grass, trees, and wood blocks. Maybe let you use a bucket of water to put out an area. I think the need to bring back the effects of hot and cold biomes too. Increase the damage buff on the Fireman gloves (to match the other gloves) so a fireman build is an option.
Screw trying to drain that water, just place a new floor higher than the water in the shaft. Also, when you said, "There's NO more loot bags," there was a loot bag right in front of you .At 43:48 JUST before you opened your inventory you could see it. Oh Well, a sacrifice to the loot Gods.
Josh, you can get more DPS out of you batons by using more buffs, optimizing your mods (weighted head instead of ergonomic grip for example), and using mostly power attacks. Yes, you do need to watch your stamina, same as any weapon. Besides, that is what the coffee is for. Trust me, I do my horde nights in a 'U' shaped cage on the ground with an open top, very challenging. To be fair, I'll pull out an M-60 if I get behind and I only do 8-10 zombies at a time, but I also wear raider helm and chest, int gloves, and commando boots. Gear up and see what you can really do with that baton.
Could the electric fences be causing the cops to explode? They are taking a fair bit of damage from them! Build a wee fence at the edge of the ledge. That will stop the Zeds flying off.....
Just started with the video. I am happy to see you now armed yourself twice with your (quote by Cap00) "new favorite weapon" (endquote) 😛[In his last nomad video he told us to tell you 😇, so don´t kill the messenger]
You should make several bulletproof glass blocks and put them as floor near your horde spot so you can look down and see zeds heading in (or will cops see you through it and vomit at you?)
I would have figured that a Maxed Baton should be the best option for dealing with Demos because you can stun lock them and then just work their toes till you get the insta-kill.
Found a new poi called "asguard residence". Never heard of it before. Small little house, very unassuming in appearance. Inside, wow, In the sub, sub basement found a surprise I never seen before. Won't ruin it, just say it was very different then I anything I have seen. Not special to use, just special to see. It has a locked steel hatch in the small garage. It is also the exit. I think it is 18 squares or so deep. Worth seeing.
There should definitely be electric powered upgrades for the various cooking devices… you better bet that id be using solar power to cook and smelt and sew and such instead of harvesting wood and everything every time i need to make breakfast… heck, it could just be a final slot in each table, and would let them lower the crucible down (and give us back the other stuff) and make those the top tier rewards… even the water one could like double other effects or something via powered cooling and heating and vents and stuff (This could potentially lower heat generation as well)
you could put a wall/fence where that ramp used to be so when your repulsor sends them flying they dont go flying too far, like that one video you did with the blade traps. You could also make that outside ramp and just make it go to the ground so they have a quick way to get up during horde night. could add in a door so you have a drawbridge so its only used for horde night.
Given you have the fence in place, it provides crowd control. The repulsor is primarily a crowd control assistant, as it throws Zs away to provide time. Since the electric fence already holds them in place and they can't get to you, I think not using the repulsor mod is more useful during horde night.
It depends on the base design. If he added a back wall behind the outside platform, they'd hit it and stop. Blade traps on it are optional. Josh has never really THOUGHT about how to build a horde base that maximizes the benefits of the Stun Baton and counteracts its detriments. Most of his base design thinking has been around guns and sledges/clubs. It's pretty apparent in his designs, including his ridiculous dedication to the scaffold-ladder/double-bar fighting position wall. It's TOO NARROW to swing through effectively. He's constantly hitting his own bars instead of the zombies. Of course he's blaming the weapon instead......
this series really makes me want a legit stun baton series. like, with other weapons. Play district zero, its got plasma batons n shit, like a proper level 3 AND level 4 stun baton. i really hope TFP adds one of those into vanilla. it only makes sense 2 things josh, 1 - u need the repulsor dude... otherwise ur only hitting 1 zombie and crippling the baton. 2 - petition the fun pimps to swap gen and like... bob. i would say rekt but he makes sense to be in the forest, jen doesnt deserve the burnt shit hole i do agree the chance for insta kill should go up per hit tho, it should never take more than like 5-6 hits with a 10% chance, not 10 or more
Should have done the stun baton challenge in District Zero, where it has a proper full line progression and shouldn't fall off late game. Or at least use a mod that adds the plasma and laser batons to the base game, along with associated materials.
Need a backstop mate put a wall up behind them so they cant go off building. Also, couple vids back another mate looked and found that the insta-kill is actually like 1500 damage. thats why your not seeing 1 in 10 dead with them having really high HP, but it does take a Lot of their HP off. the decap and dismember to proc and they are area of effect with tats running
Part of his problem is using the double bars to swing through.....he's not getting headshots except on the short zombies (like Arlene). When he aims up from standing to get a headshot, he's hitting the bars instead. But he's completely dedicated to that bars/scaffoldladder combo, despite it being mainly for guns. For melee, you need a LOT more room to swing through.
The whole world should really stop saying to avoid something "like the plague". We had a plague almost 5 years ago, and people most certainly did not avoid it. Some even looked for it so they could spread it. And, like syphilis, it never really went away either.
HA! I moved into a wasteland Vanity Tower as well and the Z's flooded the basement the exact same way. Just wait to see how much of a complete hassle it is to clean up >:|
Honestly, it be actually quite cool if we could dual wield weapons. If they ever get around to adding some kind of shield (which is weird TFP hasn't already), we'll need to be able to wield in our off-hands.
Hello Jawoodle I am curious and want to ask some I often see you try games a couple of times on the channel and most are survival 3D would you consider trying out a game HoloCure on the channel? I think it might attract a lot of attention and people will like it but what I want to know most is what do you think about it btw it has a casino it was just added to the game just for you let's go gambling it's completely free 😅😂
I may be speaking out of turn but you're worried about the demo, when you have a charged stun baton with the rupulsor mod. Just an idea, maybe intentionally hit the button with the baton that won't throw them, then launch them with the charged one so they blow up before they even hit the ground?
Demo drops a red bag. Demo is worth a lot of xp. Demo explosion does a crap ton of damage and it isn't worth taking chances that it could go off next to you.
JOSH!!! Put first aid kits in DeeDee, not bandages. he heals you when you're down to half HP, 25 healing isn't much... I'd keep bandages on me to top up when necessary and first aid kits in DeeDee for when shit hits the fan!
IIRC DeeDee gets the same bonuses as the player, so his Physician 5 should be doubling his health gain from healing items (so he'd get 50-60 health back from a bandage) so it would still be significant. Not that he's going to get hit much except from his own muppetry when running the baton....
i would like to point out that the stun bat is only one item out of that whole skill tree. its a great piece of kit but its not ment to be the only thing you run with. at the very least you should be leaning a lot more heavy on traps and turrets.
why not use the roll up door as a backwall behind the zombies so you don't yeet them off the building. and if you have it powered you can use it as an emergency option to open so the zombies go all the way down and buy yourself some time to heal / repair etc.
If it was me I would get rid of the garage door and make a crawling base to the gap that way when they get repulsed they hit the wall and then fall to the blade traps
I would make a backdrop and keep rhe repulsor mod if them flying off the building is a problem. That way you have something to provide a backstop and a means to continue killing zombies with descent speed and aoe. The baton itself performed well. The base design just happened to make the launch feature inconvenient. I think a proper backstop would remedy that issue.
Your reaction to the pool incident was awesome. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself and as always, thank you for the excellent content, commentary and positivity you consistently bring.
no idea if it would work, but imagine a backsplash to yeet them into with a hole in the floor beneath that would drop them into blade traps
he really only needs like 2 vertical bars and it would do while still letting them through
Love that Josh was so happy about a flooded basement 😂😂😂
Same, I'd be so annoyed if I where him. x)
1:The trigger plate needs to go. Slap down a switch so you can put the door in the state you want it to be even when you aren't there.
2: Put a horde box in the hallway behind your horde base. Throw all of the repair materials you need into it, and some extra meds/food/drinks. No more forgetting steel, iron, electronic parts, ect.

Also if you make entrance to the side, enemies would stop getting stuck at the corner of the door beyond your reach. I think those big doors may work against you there.
And probably rerouting big door so they drop zombos when step ON rather than Off the plate. It seem like it just forces you sto stay still and not get hits on enemies slightly further away. If you move pressureplate a block or two back you'd still activate it easily when taking cover behind wall but you wouldn't be forced to stay in single spot all the time.
That's a great idea!
I thought the same thing!
Concur! That was my thought; entry to the side, backstop in front.
I think this is definitely the way to go! I'd also add some blade traps to the wall for when the zombies get sent flying from the AOE (partially for extra damage, partially for entertainment)
have you watched any of joshes older videos he has one where he made a pogo board for bears and one where he made a zed cannon i think the zed cannon has physicist he could use
That ending! No more 5 star resort for you. Your most precious feature is broken and the customers aren’t happy.
lol 🤣
That ending with the bottom flooded was such an awesome surprise... As always, Take Care & God Bless.

Josh: Turns off the stun baton's major crowd control ability
Also Josh: Complains the stun baton may be reaching its limit.
41:31 I agree, but also if they are already sizzly, it should increase decap chance.
Had so many plans about penalties for dying. Didn't even come close tonight. Love the flooded basement.
That was a pretty decent horde night. I think the switch plate should be changed over for a wall switch, but you do what's best for you
I love that you were so excited about a flooded basement! It is pretty cool that that can happen now, but I would have been pissed 😂
Jenny had a morale booster mod schematic for deedee. That'd be a good get. Look out for it next time.
also missed a fuel save mod schematic
Now if only the baton would electrify the water ⚡️⚡️
That be so good!

Put a row of BARS as a wall to stop the YEET

They are just helping themselves with those intrusive thoughts of jumping from the roof to the pool. You just need a backstop to keep the Zs from flying off the hoard base ledge.
Keep the repulsor mod but make like a slight wall or something that catches them from being tossed away down below?
Over course of time, I learned so much about rich australian culture and their language. I learned so many new words and expressions, such as galah, froth, bonza mate, dollary doo, trady potaty, sugar t**ty, flappy f**cks, and many more. Great episode, especially the basement.

I love screamer parties! I pop a learning elixir and farm XP from every angle while my iron smelts away and gasoline crafts
43:48 Never stop being you Jawoodle.
3:07 I looked up from my computer at phrase "box of dicks", Behold! I now know what it's like to be at a Diddy party.
Why not roll with multiple charged batons and with different mods to help during the horde and stick situations?
32:12 the rad zombie looking at the cop zombie falling down for ages lol
Loving this series, Woodle! Been really digging the trap door + blade combo. Thanks for showcasing it!
MUPPETS UNITE IT IS TIME 🎉
Edit : gods I hope your NOT wearing quagmire’s underwear lol.
Maybe make some land mines and put them on a "yeet platform" instead of a backstop. Make a minigame out of next horde night where you can yeet some zombies onto some landmines.
Zap, propel, boom, and they might go flying even higher. Sure you'll lose a bit of XP, but it's worth the entertainment.
The flooding is awesome🙌🙌🙌
The sheer delight and happiness he had when he worked out they had drained the pool into the basement made this vid
I put the SMG turret pointing nearly straight up and then I put a motion sensor higher up pointing at the roof only set to zombies only with a 45 second power time.
The motion sensor blocks power drain until a turkey gets in turret range and quickly powers the turret back down when there's nothing left to kill.
The discovery of the flooded basement was very funny.
Thank you Josh. Whenever I have a bad day watching you makes me feel a bit better. I look forward to your 7 Days videos
I like a tunnel 1 block wide and 2 blocks high at least 2 blocks deep with a funnel on the outside and an electric fence right next to the ladders blocking.

Capp00 told me to tell you he is using your new favorite weapon 😅just like you
Josh you could have used wire tool and connected them lights in your wardrobe room, I do it often to use free none heat generation lights.
Could the electric fences be causing the cops to explode?
They are taking a fair bit of damage from them!
Build a wee fence at the edge of the ledge.
That will stop the Zeds flying off.....
You could do a TRAPS only run. It would be super hard at first, but eventually they need to run the gauntlet.
Been looking forward to more woodle
Just started with the video. I am happy to see you now armed yourself twice with your (quote by Cap00) "new favorite weapon" (endquote) 😛[In his last nomad video he told us to tell you 😇, so don´t kill the messenger]
You should make several bulletproof glass blocks and put them as floor near your horde spot so you can look down and see zeds heading in (or will cops see you through it and vomit at you?)
They are crisps.
Chips are things that you get with your fish!
I would have figured that a Maxed Baton should be the best option for dealing with Demos because you can stun lock them and then just work their toes till you get the insta-kill.
Found a new poi called "asguard residence". Never heard of it before. Small little house, very unassuming in appearance. Inside, wow, In the sub, sub basement found a surprise I never seen before. Won't ruin it, just say it was very different then I anything I have seen. Not special to use, just special to see. It has a locked steel hatch in the small garage. It is also the exit. I think it is 18 squares or so deep. Worth seeing.
Only Josh would get excited about his pool being broken...lol
There should definitely be electric powered upgrades for the various cooking devices… you better bet that id be using solar power to cook and smelt and sew and such instead of harvesting wood and everything every time i need to make breakfast… heck, it could just be a final slot in each table, and would let them lower the crucible down (and give us back the other stuff) and make those the top tier rewards… even the water one could like double other effects or something via powered cooling and heating and vents and stuff
(This could potentially lower heat generation as well)
you could put a wall/fence where that ramp used to be so when your repulsor sends them flying they dont go flying too far, like that one video you did with the blade traps.
You could also make that outside ramp and just make it go to the ground so they have a quick way to get up during horde night. could add in a door so you have a drawbridge so its only used for horde night.
in your excitement over the flooded basement you missed a loot bag
New side quest: make some buckets and refill the pool!
I was wondering when the Zeds would find their way through the pool.
Given you have the fence in place, it provides crowd control. The repulsor is primarily a crowd control assistant, as it throws Zs away to provide time. Since the electric fence already holds them in place and they can't get to you, I think not using the repulsor mod is more useful during horde night.
It depends on the base design. If he added a back wall behind the outside platform, they'd hit it and stop. Blade traps on it are optional. Josh has never really THOUGHT about how to build a horde base that maximizes the benefits of the Stun Baton and counteracts its detriments. Most of his base design thinking has been around guns and sledges/clubs. It's pretty apparent in his designs, including his ridiculous dedication to the scaffold-ladder/double-bar fighting position wall. It's TOO NARROW to swing through effectively. He's constantly hitting his own bars instead of the zombies. Of course he's blaming the weapon instead......
this series really makes me want a legit stun baton series. like, with other weapons. Play district zero, its got plasma batons n shit, like a proper level 3 AND level 4 stun baton. i really hope TFP adds one of those into vanilla. it only makes sense
2 things josh, 1 - u need the repulsor dude... otherwise ur only hitting 1 zombie and crippling the baton. 2 - petition the fun pimps to swap gen and like... bob. i would say rekt but he makes sense to be in the forest, jen doesnt deserve the burnt shit hole
i do agree the chance for insta kill should go up per hit tho, it should never take more than like 5-6 hits with a 10% chance, not 10 or more
Should have done the stun baton challenge in District Zero, where it has a proper full line progression and shouldn't fall off late game. Or at least use a mod that adds the plasma and laser batons to the base game, along with associated materials.
You should build a back splash to prevent zombies from flying away on you! (too far at least)
I've heard about row boat videos.
Never thought I'd see Jawoodle in one. Life is full of surprises, I reckon.
Need a backstop mate put a wall up behind them so they cant go off building. Also, couple vids back another mate looked and found that the insta-kill is actually like 1500 damage. thats why your not seeing 1 in 10 dead with them having really high HP, but it does take a Lot of their HP off. the decap and dismember to proc and they are area of effect with tats running
Part of his problem is using the double bars to swing through.....he's not getting headshots except on the short zombies (like Arlene). When he aims up from standing to get a headshot, he's hitting the bars instead.
But he's completely dedicated to that bars/scaffoldladder combo, despite it being mainly for guns. For melee, you need a LOT more room to swing through.
@@heliumphoenix Which is kinda funny because he absolutely KNOWS the crown molding window block will work perfectly. heheh love the muppetery.
The whole world should really stop saying to avoid something "like the plague". We had a plague almost 5 years ago, and people most certainly did not avoid it. Some even looked for it so they could spread it. And, like syphilis, it never really went away either.
They're pathing to the dropper block, I'd remove and put a middle pole, and think you forgot to open downstairs and make quick ladders.
HA! I moved into a wasteland Vanity Tower as well and the Z's flooded the basement the exact same way. Just wait to see how much of a complete hassle it is to clean up >:|
If you ever die with this horde base it's certainly not the batons fault. It's so janky
My main complaint about the batons, hitting over and over and over and over, before they finally die.
You jsut need to know when you can power attack.
Honestly, it be actually quite cool if we could dual wield weapons. If they ever get around to adding some kind of shield (which is weird TFP hasn't already), we'll need to be able to wield in our off-hands.
Should get yourself some solar cell to recharge those batteries during the day when the lights are off.
Didn’t he buy a tier 6 solar cell in a past video?
Hello Jawoodle I am curious and want to ask some I often see you try games a couple of times on the channel and most are survival 3D would you consider trying out a game HoloCure on the channel? I think it might attract a lot of attention and people will like it but what I want to know most is what do you think about it btw it has a casino it was just added to the game just for you let's go gambling it's completely free 😅😂
Woodle, download the Light Enabler mod. You'll love it.
I may be speaking out of turn but you're worried about the demo, when you have a charged stun baton with the rupulsor mod. Just an idea, maybe intentionally hit the button with the baton that won't throw them, then launch them with the charged one so they blow up before they even hit the ground?
The problem is if it doesn't send them far enough, they'll take out a chunk of the building when they blow.
Demo drops a red bag. Demo is worth a lot of xp. Demo explosion does a crap ton of damage and it isn't worth taking chances that it could go off next to you.
JOSH!!!
Put first aid kits in DeeDee, not bandages.
he heals you when you're down to half HP, 25 healing isn't much...
I'd keep bandages on me to top up when necessary and first aid kits in DeeDee for when shit hits the fan!
IIRC DeeDee gets the same bonuses as the player, so his Physician 5 should be doubling his health gain from healing items (so he'd get 50-60 health back from a bandage) so it would still be significant.
Not that he's going to get hit much except from his own muppetry when running the baton....
Be water my friends. Thanks Josh
Stun repulsor is the best on horde night if you don't care about kills and xp. Just send them off the building and laugh while they scramble back up.
Or you build a backsplash wall for them to hit when they get yeeted, which lets them fall into more blade traps. I call it the pachinko base design.
The repulsor mod has Josh enthusiastically beating off zombies left and right.. no wait...
You're going to need a big mop and lots of buckets 😂. Great fun. Thanks Josh xx
***Like using an emery board to sand your zombies away.***
The blocks centered are actually fine regardless of thickness from the testing cautiouspancake did
That discovery at the end is very cool!
build a wall on the outside edge of the top of the ramp to catch them when you throw them
i would like to point out that the stun bat is only one item out of that whole skill tree. its a great piece of kit but its not ment to be the only thing you run with. at the very least you should be leaning a lot more heavy on traps and turrets.
Why can you use shotgun/smg turrets but not robotic turrets?
It needs that 3rd generation for the baton.
why not use the roll up door as a backwall behind the zombies so you don't yeet them off the building. and if you have it powered you can use it as an emergency option to open so the zombies go all the way down and buy yourself some time to heal / repair etc.
I want to see the ultimate test of day 7000 horde vs stun Barton.
awesome episode mate! btw you missed a bag where the water came in :D
I live in the Burned Biome! Jen is mine! Stop hitting on her! Dx
😂
Wow 😯 flooded the basement nice work!!! 👍
Well done Woodle. Cheers cobber, thanks mate. Bless.
Not sure if you know this or not but you can loot the shelf directly behind trader rekt
Nicely done. And that pool leak is cool!
PGz Forest Jen v1 - This is a modlet that swaps Trader Rekt to the burnt biome and Trader Jen to the forest biome in 7 Days To Die v1.
If it was me I would get rid of the garage door and make a crawling base to the gap that way when they get repulsed they hit the wall and then fall to the blade traps
He just needs to add a back wall for them to be thrown into and stops them from falling off. Blade traps on the wall are optional.
8am, Woodle time!
just build a wall to catch them.. maybe a bit out with a way back to the path
Woodle-Time!!!
Hopefully you didnt keep your Playboy magazines in the basement like I did! 😂😂🥺🥺😭😭
Ur arms r sore coz ur playing with 2 batons n then u flood ur basement. Laughs all the way
