It's a bit disappointing that there are only four burdens when the original mod had seven. Sure, Despised wasn't very original (just permanent min scav rep) and has literally no impact on artificer, but it could have been replaced with something new. Soaked and Starved were also pretty cool, idk why they felt the need to remove them.
@@sorbetcafe Yeah starved is self-explanatory. Soaked was inttermitent rain during the cycle (shelter failures before shelter failures even existed). I really don't know why they cut those. Pursued also worked differently. Instead of sending a dedicated red centipede, it would just spawn enemies in the last room you entered every now and then, like dropwigs, cyans or even dlls. I don't dislike the new one, but I find it boring that it's only ever just a glorified red centipede. Never like a red/train lizard, or a miros vulture or anything else.
@@ShinyKelp It'd be so cool if the pursuer changed depending on the region. Like golden DLL in superstructures, Miros vultures in chimney canopy and sky islands and so on.
Yeah there are so many things they could add as well :')) Maybe something like "Exhausted", you know, Gourmand's exhaustion but with other slugcats, Saint's throwing skill (not being able to throw spears), artificer's short underwater breath time, spearmaster's *non-existent mouth*, rivulet's short cycles or saint's veganism! :00
I made a mistake of going to subterranean with the "hunted" burden. My game slowed down so much that I had over 10 seconds of input lag. Enemy AI seemed to have a similar problem, just with "thinking" instead of individual inputs.
subterranean is an actual nightmare with hunted. It gets insanely laggy and it's like impossible to traverse certain rooms because there are just a dozen enemies crammed into a tiny tunnel.
My method to Kill Miros vulture with Spearmaster was to 1. "Borrow" two electric spears from the Elite Scavs in Chimney (Area was a thunderdome between Red Lizard, Scavs, Cyan Lizards, and vultures) 2. Grab the Vulture Grub from Chimney 3. Head down Shaded Citadel. Once you are on the bridge right after the Industry/shaded Karma gate you can toss the Vulture and it will summon the Miros vulture. Turns out repeatedly stabbing it with two electric spears makes it helpless. Took a good deal of prep, but was worth it.
My method was just going to moon and taking the cubby hole in the exterior side of her chamber and to pull out into the side if they shoot a laser. Pray the mother spider doesn’t come into it and you’re pretty much set as it seems the miros vultures I encounter never flee unlike those cowardly vultures

Have the Hunted burden on and go to a room that's near an active Echo. The bodies will just PILE up. It is hilarious. Sometimes some interesting collision physics will happen with the bodies from all of them being deposited in the same place from the pipes the enemies enter the room.
For Hunter's Birdwatching mission, you can take the unmarked/hidden down pipe which is just two rooms left of spawn shelter (it's the room with vulture grub and mushrooms, left of the room at 21:40). Just take the vulture grub and follow the pipe down to the gutter where you will immediately see an open area with garbage worm and a bunch of spears. You can summon vultures in that room and just wail on them with those spears, without needing to stockpile.
About the Hunter Gatherer challenge, I found a way to beat it that doesn't even require going to the left side of pipeyard (it still requires crafting). Combine the rocks with lilypucks to make lanterns, and combine them with more rocks to make flashbangs. Do the quest, then combine them with popped bubblefruit to make jellyfish and do the quest. Go to the surface for the fly lures, you can find them at the top-right shelter to the right of the centipede area (don't forget to put them in a shelter). Combine the fly lures with batflies to make mushrooms, go to shelter, then combine those with rocks to make spore puffs and win. No need to even leave Pipeyard, and you can probably do this in
Mm, the vulture grub tip is good to know. My path made it not too much of a hassle to go to moon since pipeyard goes right to shoreline, but if you can do it in industrial that makes things much easier since that’s a pretty closed off arena to fight in. The main issue in LTTM is not letting them flee. You could also stockpile exploding spears from the shaded scav merchant super easily with a colored Pearl.
Also, this is one of the moments where the fact that I basically did no research and just empirically tested all this is obvious lol. Would’ve saved a lot of hassle.
I think a lot of the burdens are kinda meh tbh. Hunted would be really cool if the game wasn't literally unplayable in many regions due to lag/crashing from the number of creatures Blinded is kinda meaningless with a neuron fly, just makes it a bit dark Pursued is pretty cool Doomed makes sense, it's just really high stakes and in a game with as much RNG as rain world and with expeditions being as long as they can be, it's not usually fun
Me: *Gets Kill Cyan Lizards as Monk* Me: How preposterous! What a silly thought! Hah! Cyan Lizards don't spawn naturally in Monk! My BLINDED Monk: *Fear*
11:14 - might be missing something, but isn’t the Construct Echo supposed to be an alternate version of the Exterior Echo rather than of the Citadel Echo? the dialogue seems much more in line with the former
Well if you spawn in metropolis as a non arti slug you can go to the king scav room and find his mask this will make every scav friendly as well act like a vulture mask
One thing to note about mods: There's support for Region Authors to create custom Quests (Those 75 such things that unlock other things) and Preset missions for Expedition. Hidden Characters will need to be modded to be forced unlocked in the menu (INV specifically). There's also several mods that are introducing custom Burdens and custom content to the system. There's even a mod that will allow complete custom challenges to be played without having to rely on other mods or weird ID order for it to work. It'll work from the get-go.
9:06 IMPORTANT: Do yourself a favor and check if this lizzard spawns for your slugcat. This one in particular does NOT spawn for Hunter, Artificer, Spearmaster, Saint and Inv. So as a hunter your only choice is to gamble on 5% lineage of 2 lizzards next room, since he for some reason does not have any other lizzards at Shaded at all. Be good to yourself and bring some food to boys in Industrial Complex, kill dropwigs, bring them lantern mice if you will, just don't trap yourself with exit camping dropwig to gamble for 5% chance to see a lizzard
Low chance this will be seen by anyone, but in Artificer's mission you should immediately head over and grab the scav king mask;; scavs will no longer attack you at all, no matter how many of them you kill, and they wont be afraid of you either! It makes the mission 1000x easier
Also electric spear perk works Oh and jellyfish don't count as a kill if you make them fall with it unless you hit the vulture with a rock or spear first.
@@sorbetcafe this reminds me of 2014 when everything and everyone that is not human someone shoud draw it in anime style with a hoodie And I don't hate it, but cmooon!
Killing the miros birds is pretty easy as spearmaster, just spam a million spears on the ground in memory crypts and then when the birds pass just spam the spears at them
I think an easier route for apex predator is going to chimney canopy to both farm vulture masks and killing the red lizard. Vultures masks for getting on the scavs good side. CC is filled to the brim with creatures that'll be a great distraction to the red lizard giving you easy shots to line. After you're done, go to garbage wastes to off a DDL. If you have chieftan you basically have infinite explosive spears, if you don't then use your gravity bomb. after that, go to shaded citadel. There is a huge scavenger treasury in garbage wastes right next to the SC gate so that's more infinite explosive spears you can use to kill the miros vultures that spawn in SC. The advice for killing the mirus vultures is basically the same as the video. After all that, go either to pipeyard or subterranean and off a red centipede with either your gamer skills or a couple of puffballs
Btw, at the time of writing this mode is completly bugged on switch and you can't unlock anything from it, at all. Perks, burdens, songs, all of it. I don't know how long it'll be until it's fixed but I would wait to play this mode until then.
A good spot I found to farm Scavs and creature points is that second room after the first metropolis shelter, just stand close to the wall and spear any scavs when they fall down
The way I beat Birdwatching was by summoning vultures with a vulture grab and baiting them under the roof in the room to the left of CC/UW karma gate. Also isn't there a chiftain mask in the dome on Artificers campaign? It can pacify the scavengers which makes this mission trivial.
the hunted burden makes eggbugs and small centipedes be attracted to you, i dont know why but, you'll pretty much always have food since they just go towards you. also pretty sure theres two colored pearls as saint, not enough but... they're there i guess. The joke rifle is actually kind of strong for centipede and scavenger combat! you get tons more value out of spore bombs and artificer has an easier time with scavengers, since one rock bullet to the head is a one shot kill on normal scavengers and maybe on elites too? if you dont hit them in the head it stuns them for a fair amount of time so you dont have to worry a lot if you miss the head, it also allows you to shoot in more directions so that means it combos really well with explosive jumps however, not so much on pretty much anything else... except maybe dropwigs and other low hp stuff, renember to not load explosives into the rifle, they just explode mid air for me and generally looks like it does less damage than a normal throw....
Oh yeah the rifle kicks ass for scavs and a lot of things. I find it pretty boring and kind of a hassle a lot of the time though. Great as Saint, but I prefer spears for the others. Rifle 8 directional shots + tongue is incredible. And yeah, I guess saying there aren’t *any* colored pearls as Saint isn’t quite right, but most colored pearls are gone and therefore the colored-pearl specific challenges aren’t chosen.
@@sorbetcafe Aiming is the worst part. It's just not intuitive, especially when you need to use it for the low grav effect with pearls. Having to walk towards the thing you need to shoot before you can guarantee a hit is just... uhg
@@gammaboy4568 holding down fire makes it so it can't move the aim so I'd say it's good, also pearl boost is broken as hell, i jut zooped past farm arrays with it to get the nomad passage.
@@astrylleaf now see, that is a wonderful thought that should be considered for all peoplr with that challenge. However, the main problem with that info is not being smart enough to realize that All joking aside, lol yeah. I have a bad habit of overcomplicating my solution to problems lol
Boy did I get lucky with my Miros Vulture kill on Spearmaster's challenge. I was climbing down the leg to get out of 5P after killing the DLL, and a Miros Vulture got stuck on one of the ledges in the leg, so I jumped down and tossed the singularity bomb as I casually fell by. Lol. Cost me my electric spear in the shockwave but it was worth it.
27:10 if you bring a vulture grub from chimney, SH_D01 in shaded (near industrial) can spawn miros vultures. if you stick in the pipe, you can cheese them after baiting. highly recommend the explosive resistance for their rocket-launcher faces.
Even though I did the whole expedition it's still fun to watch this video Also I can't get a quest to get the Wanderer passage as Saint, is this a bug??
23:30 Wait are you supposed to start in gutter? For some reason it put me in a shelter in Outskirts. It was the one by where the tutorial starting area thing ends (when you exit a pipe and drop off a pole, and a shelter is to the left. idk thats the best way i can describe it) I think I saw some discussion on steam of someone who had something similar happen, except it was when they started gourmand’s story campaign.
maybe its just me but you seemed like you were in a rush when recording this? i have to keep replaying parts to understand what you just said because you're talking too fast lmao
I have a doubt: for the Chieftain passage, if you complete the challenge before finishing the expedition, and then lose the passage (since you can lose it if your rep falls back down enough), do you lose the challenge as well?
It's funny because to me, the spearmaster and artificer ones where the easiest. I did them first and without too much issues, minus the spearmaster one taking super long. Meanwhile I'm still stuck trying food tour because I just suck so bad at gourmand I can barely survive a cycle even in the least hostile places.
huh.... good to know that Proto-DLLs work for the killing DLL tasks, because that one you killed for Spearmaster is definitely a proto one, no actual mobile DLLs spawn in 5P for Spearmaster's point in the timeline. the mobile rot in his time is almost entirely limited to Garbage Wastes (only exception being that 1 Rot enemy in Waterfront Facility that remains there until Gourmand's Shoreline (where it only appears as a lineage enemy) before finally being gone from Survivor onwards)
@@sorbetcafe huh... the interactive map doesn't mark any proper DLL spawns in 5P for Spearmaster at all... not even denless ones... guess I must've gotten lucky, in my own Spearmaster playthroughts only ever seen the completely immobile ones (like the one you killed) there and the map simply shows as part of the terrain (which makes sense due to the lack of moving) rather than as creature spawns (though I'm aware that they're still killable). on the whole I was mostly just uncertain if the immobile ones were considered the same type of creature or not.
@@Eclipsed_Embers yeah, they’re not entirely immobile, they just don’t like moving and rarely do. The one in that room will go up and down the room sometimes. As other slugcats, most of unfortunate development has the same denless DLLs, but there are a couple with dens that are more mobile. Their purpose is similar to proto long legs but for every purpose they’re still considered DLLs
You earn them by doing all sorts of miscellaneous things. In the progression page with the 75 boxes, look at the red ones to see what you need to do to unlock burdens and the cyan ones for perks. You unlock perk slots, which let you use the perks you have unlocked, by leveling up.
To be genuine, I hate Apex predator. But I can't let it beat me. I've already given up on Sliver of Straws and The Collection (sadly the transmissions seem bugged and aren't appearing), I can't leave this too. If anyone has a better plan for the daddy long legs than this video let me know. Later I'll try writing down a plan I've thought of
Your options for the daddy long legs are essentially: -Exploding spear -Spamming spearmaster spears in five pebbles -Singularity bomb Spearmaster has DLLs in garbage wastes, you could try your luck looting scav treasuries there and using those spears.
@@sorbetcafe I was thinking of garbage wastes personally because what you showed in the video isn't really working. The bomb is very important for Miros Vultures, the esplosive spear is rare and it's hard to no just hit the DLL in the legs doing no damage, while normal spears are just not it. I spent an hour trying with normal spears, but the DLL moves around its body and tentacles to hit it reliably.
@@sorbetcafe Otherwise there is another option. I can use the bomb on the DLL, then when I need to kill the Miros Vulture I can actually craft a new bomb. It requires a karma flower I'm pretty sure, which I think might stop spawning if I use them that way, but it is an option. Generally I think there's a lot that could be done with the crafting perk
@@sorbetcafe I did it! And I actually found an easier spawn for Miros Vultures too! If you take the Industrial Complex to Shaded Citadel and use it a Miros Vulture will show up! With that and the fact I found a random second eletric spear in Five Pebbles I was easily able to kill one. The singularity bomb was used for the DLL this way without problems
@@British_manndem You see the 75 boxes at 2:18? Those are milestones. You can look at them in game to see what you need to do specifically, but the cyan ones unlock perks and the green ones unlock perk slots. To unlock explosion resistance, for instance, you need to beat 2 expeditions as artificer.
I did the apex predetor with no perks, but once i sheltered to complete it, my game crashed, and when i went back to expedition, it said i had not completed apex predetor, and i didnt get any XP, if I tried to continue it, it jsut gave me the option to start a new expedition. Boowomp.
It's a bit disappointing that there are only four burdens when the original mod had seven. Sure, Despised wasn't very original (just permanent min scav rep) and has literally no impact on artificer, but it could have been replaced with something new. Soaked and Starved were also pretty cool, idk why they felt the need to remove them.
What were soaked and starved? I assume starved is perma-starvation effect. I’m not familiar with the original mod.
@@sorbetcafe Yeah starved is self-explanatory. Soaked was inttermitent rain during the cycle (shelter failures before shelter failures even existed). I really don't know why they cut those.
Pursued also worked differently. Instead of sending a dedicated red centipede, it would just spawn enemies in the last room you entered every now and then, like dropwigs, cyans or even dlls. I don't dislike the new one, but I find it boring that it's only ever just a glorified red centipede. Never like a red/train lizard, or a miros vulture or anything else.
Lee Moriya (lead expedition dev) said he was going to do mods for expedition
@@ShinyKelp It'd be so cool if the pursuer changed depending on the region. Like golden DLL in superstructures, Miros vultures in chimney canopy and sky islands and so on.
Yeah there are so many things they could add as well :'))
Maybe something like "Exhausted", you know, Gourmand's exhaustion but with other slugcats, Saint's throwing skill (not being able to throw spears), artificer's short underwater breath time, spearmaster's *non-existent mouth*, rivulet's short cycles or saint's veganism! :00

23:30 Wait are you supposed to start in gutter?
For some reason it put me in a shelter in Outskirts. It was the one by where the tutorial starting area thing ends (when you exit a pipe and drop off a pole, and a shelter is to the left. idk thats the best way i can describe it)
I think I saw some discussion on steam of someone who had something similar happen, except it was when they started gourmand’s story campaign.
maybe its just me but you seemed like you were in a rush when recording this? i have to keep replaying parts to understand what you just said because you're talking too fast lmao
I had to switch on subtitles and it made things worse D:
Me who already completed full expedition: very interesting
Your avatar is really cute
I have a doubt: for the Chieftain passage, if you complete the challenge before finishing the expedition, and then lose the passage (since you can lose it if your rep falls back down enough), do you lose the challenge as well?
Thankie! If I starve on the last cycle after doing my final challenge, do I win the expedition?
It's funny because to me, the spearmaster and artificer ones where the easiest. I did them first and without too much issues, minus the spearmaster one taking super long. Meanwhile I'm still stuck trying food tour because I just suck so bad at gourmand I can barely survive a cycle even in the least hostile places.
Hooray
I finally did everything the reward was worth it
huh.... good to know that Proto-DLLs work for the killing DLL tasks, because that one you killed for Spearmaster is definitely a proto one, no actual mobile DLLs spawn in 5P for Spearmaster's point in the timeline. the mobile rot in his time is almost entirely limited to Garbage Wastes (only exception being that 1 Rot enemy in Waterfront Facility that remains there until Gourmand's Shoreline (where it only appears as a lineage enemy) before finally being gone from Survivor onwards)
Spearmaster does have daddy long legs there, that is a denless one. DLLs in UD mostly are denless.
@@sorbetcafe huh... the interactive map doesn't mark any proper DLL spawns in 5P for Spearmaster at all... not even denless ones...
guess I must've gotten lucky, in my own Spearmaster playthroughts only ever seen the completely immobile ones (like the one you killed) there and the map simply shows as part of the terrain (which makes sense due to the lack of moving) rather than as creature spawns (though I'm aware that they're still killable). on the whole I was mostly just uncertain if the immobile ones were considered the same type of creature or not.
@@Eclipsed_Embers yeah, they’re not entirely immobile, they just don’t like moving and rarely do. The one in that room will go up and down the room sometimes. As other slugcats, most of unfortunate development has the same denless DLLs, but there are a couple with dens that are more mobile. Their purpose is similar to proto long legs but for every purpose they’re still considered DLLs
How are you this cool? I don't understand.
why is he speaking uwu lang.
hmmm yes, anime girl slugcat
...girl?
Scug hoodie?
How do you get perks and burdens??? Im on level 6 and completed most of the slugcat missions, but havent earned any yet so i cant complete them all
You earn them by doing all sorts of miscellaneous things. In the progression page with the 75 boxes, look at the red ones to see what you need to do to unlock burdens and the cyan ones for perks. You unlock perk slots, which let you use the perks you have unlocked, by leveling up.
To be genuine, I hate Apex predator. But I can't let it beat me. I've already given up on Sliver of Straws and The Collection (sadly the transmissions seem bugged and aren't appearing), I can't leave this too. If anyone has a better plan for the daddy long legs than this video let me know. Later I'll try writing down a plan I've thought of
Your options for the daddy long legs are essentially:
-Exploding spear
-Spamming spearmaster spears in five pebbles
-Singularity bomb
Spearmaster has DLLs in garbage wastes, you could try your luck looting scav treasuries there and using those spears.
@@sorbetcafe I was thinking of garbage wastes personally because what you showed in the video isn't really working. The bomb is very important for Miros Vultures, the esplosive spear is rare and it's hard to no just hit the DLL in the legs doing no damage, while normal spears are just not it. I spent an hour trying with normal spears, but the DLL moves around its body and tentacles to hit it reliably.
@@sorbetcafe Otherwise there is another option. I can use the bomb on the DLL, then when I need to kill the Miros Vulture I can actually craft a new bomb. It requires a karma flower I'm pretty sure, which I think might stop spawning if I use them that way, but it is an option. Generally I think there's a lot that could be done with the crafting perk
@@sorbetcafe I did it! And I actually found an easier spawn for Miros Vultures too! If you take the Industrial Complex to Shaded Citadel and use it a Miros Vulture will show up! With that and the fact I found a random second eletric spear in Five Pebbles I was easily able to kill one. The singularity bomb was used for the DLL this way without problems
good news, your script is correct again cause its 0.3% and 0.2% champ/leader :)
Oh hell nah the thumbnail
?
@@sorbetcafebro didint see the thumnail
it's a slugcat @@Katwhoshere
@@sorbetcafe femcat
So like at what level do you unlock every perk?
Perks are not tied to levels, you unlock them by completing different milestones or missions.
@@sorbetcafewhat milestones 😭
@@British_manndem You see the 75 boxes at 2:18? Those are milestones. You can look at them in game to see what you need to do specifically, but the cyan ones unlock perks and the green ones unlock perk slots. To unlock explosion resistance, for instance, you need to beat 2 expeditions as artificer.
@@sorbetcafe thank you so much!
@sorbetcafe but wait I don’t see the 75 quest on my switch What do I do about that?
Is it just me or is there no audio
Just you brother
second, olo
first, lol
Why is your articulation so weird?
lore accurate ending scene
I did the apex predetor with no perks, but once i sheltered to complete it, my game crashed, and when i went back to expedition, it said i had not completed apex predetor, and i didnt get any XP, if I tried to continue it, it jsut gave me the option to start a new expedition. Boowomp.
