@@quinncauwels5757 you know what, I think it’s that you can’t stack multiple of the same smoothie, it just extends the duration…. But different smoothies stack. I may have mixed that up. Good call out on that. Thank you I appreciate that.
Block-canceling reload animation for the crossbows was nerfed. There’s a reload debuff that reduces damage for the duration of the animation, whether you cancel it or not.
You are correct. I believe I explain that why I am talking about switching weapons. I mention that it’s more effective with melee weapons and that bows and cross bows will do reduced damage. 😀
About a year ago, I made what I call a crude rope factory. It was by the sandbox with all the weed stems and I made a ton of grinders and spinners, so I can make thousands of crude rope a day
That’s awesome, yeah that place is loaded with stems. That idea makes me feel like I Should just start making factories all over the yard based on nearby resources 😂😂
@@zinivix they are definitely a pain to get early in most areas. Once you’ve built the main structure you want then you don’t need nearly as many anymore, but you’re definitely right, planks are far easier to come by. That’s definitely a valid point. Thanks for pointing that out.
You can stack different smoothies… what are you taking about?? Also perfect blocking pit antlions is pointless, just move 1 step to either left or right.. btw crafting the antlion great sword is not worth it, there are better alternatives, like the toenail scimitar, which is really easy to obtain. Try to save as many upgrade rocks, there aren’t many in the world.
So you are right about the smoothies. I misspoke about that. You can’t stack smoothies of the same type, it just extends the duration, however you can stack different types of smoothies. However, I disagree/agree with the weapon statement: Here is the damage breakdown for the 2 weapons being discussed. As well as my opinion why they are better for certain aspects of the game. Both were tested with level 9 Salty Weapon. When it comes to using the antlion greatsword for farming in the sandbox, Its still the better choice (in my opinion). However, outside of the sandbox, and more late game I definitely think the toenail scimitar wins. As you can use a shield with it, and its special ability is great against late game enemies by reducing their attack speed and damage they deal. Antlion Greatsword: 83, 83, 104 Total Combo for Antlion Greatsword: 270 7 total hits and just over 4.5 seconds to defeat the pit antlion with attack animation canceling. It’s 2 total combos with 1 extra hit. Toenail Scimitar: 55, 55, 69 Total combo for toenail scimitar: 179 10 total hits and just over 5 seconds to defeat the pit antlion with attack animation canceling. It’s 3 total combos with 1 extra hit.
@@ChaosBearGaming well fair, but you won't spend that much time in the sandbox, it's better to get a salt weapon that's more for a general use, so something like the club of the mother demon or the salt morning star. It's not worth making specific weapons for just one part of the game, unless it's a very difficult boss you can't beat. I'm speaking from experience, 560 hours of playtime, over 15 playthroughs and only ever played on Whoa! mode. Currently, I'm using a level 15 salt morning star on my ng+4 game on Whoa! and it's flawless. But afterall, it's just a game, play it however you want, but I just wanted to tell you my opinion from my experience.

Decided to make my antlion sword to salty just for farming part. Loved it so much I built a chest by the zipline where I leave the sword just for entering the sandbox. Made the mixer challenge a breeze.
Awesome. I hadn’t considering leaving a little drop zone with gear for that area. I Will definitely need to do that. I don’t think anything else comes close to that power spike you can get when in the sandbox with a salty antlion sword 😂
@ChaosBearGaming it is so nice. Under the book on the picnic table I have that chest set up next to an armor dummy with my antlion armor, along with the statue and head statues of the antlion for the loot/damage buff. After realizing I only use this stuff in this one area I figured it would just be better to leave it there.
@@kristiankristianopolis9292 we spent the longest time thinking the buffs didn't stack for loot and attack bonuses. But now we have the trophy head stuck straight to the antlion because we didn't have a wall there lol

Question what should I do if I accidentally leveled up level 1 gear by mistake does anyone know if there’s any way to undo that mistake without having to make a whole new play through or is that the only way to fix said mistake?
@@ChaosBearGaming no I didn’t…my currently highest level gear that I didn’t mean to upgrade is at level 2 and for clarification I meant tier 1 gear at level 2 lol if that makes more sense
@@ChaosBearGaming ah ok should I even bother to continue leveling up my tier 1 gear or should I keep them at the level they were accidentally leveled up to?
@@Lostmasteraced I would just keep them as is, and start working towards level 2 gear. The larva blade is great to get you started early. And then you can work towards the spider dagger (tier 2) and the red ant club. And then if you destroy enough ladybugs you can build ladybug armor, which is tier 2, but can be used for nearly the entire first playthrough. Also definitely make sure you are using bows. Try to work towards tier 2 bows and they will help significantly.
