Gods of the Cataclysm (Challenge Thread)

Crossed the insect threshold. FOR THE QUEEN!

Like I said, there is another one not too far away, so I could go do it again and get proof this time. There is also a power station fairly close, not sure if I can take a shocker brute unarmed or not, but I could give it a shot.

Congrats on your godhood, man!

EDIT: After several failed attempts, I gave up and copypasted your username. It’s too hard to spell.

Fair enough. Japanese isn’t easy for most people after all :stuck_out_tongue:

Most people just call me Tak to make it easier.

I hate Japanese :<

Yes, but you did quite a nice job of it.

I managed to defeat a school with The Landcruiser!

And victory!

Please note that I had to get out and dig up the rubble that was in front of my wheels, it brought me to a dead halt no matter how fast I was going (200 kph with 2 large electric motors, 2 V8 diesels and 1 V8 gas to 0 instantly? Nope.) but I didn’t repair it at all or use anything other than The Landcruiser to bash down the walls.

Also I would’ve posted a screenshot of what was left of the front, but Cataclysm crashed on me right as I knocked that final wall segment down. Regardless, here’s a screenshot of what the landcruiser looked like at the start of the run:

Also, do you guys think this qualifies as a Rolling Fortress? It has 4 M249 turrets! (the vehicle addition pack version, not the waste all your bullets one) As well as a few others.

And Congrats Taikei!

Thank you very much. And I’d say it is a mobile fortress.

How much stuff does that bring you up to? You should nearly be there as well.

6 challenges done and (if this passes as a fortress) 2 milestones.

Challenges:

Gallon of ammonia drunk
Fungal flowers killed w/o protection (and subsequent exploding arms)
Killed shocker brute unarmed w/o electric immunity
1000 storage on person filled
The J-9
Drove through a school (Unless my getting out to clear rubble invalidated it)

Milestones:

Got the Medical Threshold
(Potentially) Rolling Fortress

Well, you only needed 5 challenges, so, you should be on the roll too :smiley:

Okay, if everything here’s in order then all I need to do is one more milestone to complete this challenge thing. I should get a threshold soon as I can brew loads of spider mutagen serums after grabbing tons of chitin.

First the challenges:


Target Acquired

Very hard, but I did it. Unfortunately I was too idiotic to realise hovering over the shocker’s body would cover up the combat log, but I can assure you I took it down barehanded. My arms were on red, pretty much everything else on yellow and it destroyed my set of plated leather armour. Very hard indeed.



Mid-fight. Good thing I bought 2 money bundles, my first one was destroyed mid fight.

Job done, only got thrown once thanks to my high DEX.



JAKERS BUTCHER HULK

JAKERS PICK UP HULK BITS

JAKERS START EATING

JAKERS FINISH EATING



Here’s a delicous looking jug, found it soon after eating the hulk.

Mid-drinking, okay so far.

Screenshot before the final sip, I’ve never been so thirsty my eyes have gone dry before. After doing this I instantly drunk the whole of the toilet in the same bathroom lol.



Too easy bro :wink:

Two Milestones:


I even packed fancy items, and smoked a cigar whilst taking the photo.



I drunk a bunch more mutagen and managed to lose Carnivore after doing this too! Spidery silky hugs anyone? :3

Tell me if I did anything wrong, I should have that threshold soon.

I’m pretty the fancy milestone was made for a true gentleman like me. If this isn’t a gentlemanly enough appearance, tell me what I’m missing and need to get, not sure if you meant get every piece of fancy clothing or what, but here’s my cosplay for pure fancy swag:

Now all I can think of is a giant spider reading a satire novel while smoking a cigar, chuckling slightly, and his elbow resting on a cane. THE FANCINESS IS TOO OVERWHELMING!!

Like this?


Best I could find, maybe I’ll draw my CDDA character when I’m not being a lazy bugger.

I wish there was something like galoshes. Heels are classed as ‘very fancy’ but I’m not a cross dresser, so dress shoes were the best I could get.

I’m not a fully fledged spider just yet, but very soon I will be! Currently collecting chunks of chitin for the spider mutagen, after that I’ll make loads of spider serum and be able to give spidery, silky hugs to everyone :3

Even a gallon jug of ammonia couldn’t get that damn spider out of my mind. You know what makes it worse? My character is a post-thresh insect. Soon you will be Rhodri Kraakman Antman’s worst nightmare.

Drank some of my water from my WIP rolling-fortress. It’s not quite ready yet though.

Awww, don’t be scared. I’ll knit a nice bed of silk for you to rest on [size=1pt]WHILE I EAT YOU[/size] ^3^

IT’S FUCKING GENTLEMAN CHO’GATH! I HAVE THAT SKIN. OH MY GOD NERDGASM INTENSIFIES

Ahem… anyway, back on topic.

Almost got 60 chunks of chitin in my wheelbarrow, I should be getting that Spider Threshold soon!

Killed a shocker unarmed and with no electrical protection.

It didn’t shock me while I punched its face in for some reason though, thank RNGod.

Updated my 5 challenges + 2 milestones, for now I am a big, beautiful spider!

I think that’s me done, but I might have done something wrong - point it out if I did.

I am doing killing a hulk with money bundle: (AND EATING IT)

I had Hydraulic Muscles and Uncanny dodge activated:

That was easy.

After butchering a hulk I got 19 tainted meats and 5 raw hides.
Ew…


That was disgusting. 5 challenges and 1 milestone done.
(Royal jelly, prozac and blood filter FTW)
