[quote=“Jakers, post:4084, topic:42”][quote=“Flunky, post:4083, topic:42”]Eh, you’re probably right that I’m just taking things a little too quickly in the first day. I should probably just learn to deal with being pretty thirsty for a while until I’ve better prepared my initial holdings.
Oh, and I also just remembered I turned up the spawn size a pip or two for my worldgen. That would not have helped, certainly.
And cudgels are much better than I remember, yeah. They just break pretty quick since you really wail away with them.[/quote]
If you can get your hands on a stone pot recipe, which is 4 survival 3 construction…? (I think) then that will allow you to boil up some tasty water without running into towns like a chicken on crack which will usually succeed in you dying (trust me I’ve done it multiple times.)
Also, try scavenging underbrushes. Why? No, not those shitty wild veggies which have like -1000 enjoyablility (which can be removed if you have 1 cooking skill and a pot or something to cook them with), but you can actually find trash such as containers and other cool things. Usually I just do it for containers, you can find things up to as big as a damn gallon jug, which is excellent. If you can get your hands on a gallon jug, it will serve as a makeshift funnel you can craft to use over a container of your choice, giving you an infinite supply of drinkable water when it rains. And we all know it rains often on cataclysm. Just disarm the funnel when it starts to acid rain or you’ll be getting acidic water which isn’t very tasty and slightly kills you.[/quote]
stone pot is 1-2 survival, 1 cooking, and the only way to get cooking without a pot is pointy stick + meat chunk + fire.
