Quick math for T4

[Bilbohob]

I just calculated the total amount of raw resources that you need to build a T4 fabricator from scratch and it's quite impressive.
So you need :

232 leather
298 iron ore
360 copper ore
158 epoxy
208 silica
9 coal
48 aluminum ore
152 oxite
120 gold

The most amazing for me is the 360 copper ore and the 120 gold ore for the 60 electronic chips.

I did not count the stone nor the wood.

I personally don't think it's worth it to get to T4 outside of the required missions.

dat 9 coal doe! :D

[WhoopinOnYou]

Yeah, the copper is the one that hits you in the face. We all get stuck on worrying about the gold and how it's so limited, etc. But in the end it's the copper that has you running from cave to cave and hoping that you didn't mine it out completely from when you were there the day before. lol

[Bilbohob]

yeah 360 is massive even with all the mining talents

[Mistress_darknes]

yep why we started a post asking for nodes to respond ..electric parts and the t4 are resource hogs ....could not find enough caves ... And this run through..hardly any gold in caves.

[Harmonium]

electronic cost too much to make.

don't bother, just play something else, cause even if you grind thru all that, you'll soon realise there is nothing to do with it. ooh, I can build a bow that 1 shots everything 2% faster.... wow! or you can build all electric everything cause that's so fun, then you can do literally nothing with any of it cause there is nothing else in the game to do... just 1 shot more boars and bears... oooh so FUN! /s

[KERNOW]

LMFAO dude it just taken me 8hrs to try to make this solo, and only just seen you post after I raged at chat at how long it takes.

I've been making posts about this since early on in Beta. There needs to be more to do after these long grindy missions. A mission that requires the Fabricator should have a multi-mission drop. Make it so you have to use some of those items in T4 to complete subsequent missions. Not just mine a few exotics and fly away. 30 day drop timer, 5 missions. First mission could be grinding all the way through to mine exotics and you need to use those exotics to unlock the next biome to move on and complete other missions, etc. You'd want that hunting rifle to kill the bosses that await in those other biomes...and so on. It would be more enjoyable and rewarding.

I wanna play your version... it sounds way better. This pos is weak as f

The funny thing is .... I crafted all this, and a fabricator and a generator and a cable manager and an electric oven! BUT - it does not work and there is no sense at all to continue !!!
DEVELOPERS !? Have you even played T4 yourself? !!!

[Enforcer]

We made one despite not really needing it in the NW corner or the riverlands. But we were still happy we did because 2 repeating rifles and a bolt action are better against a hoard of wooly mammoths charging towards you.

You and me both. I know that Dean really loves Valheim. He could certainly include certain aspects of that game and bring them over into this one. Mega bosses that have to be unlocked some how using the exotics you took an eternity to mine. Maybe smelting down exotics to forge some weapon that must be used to kill said boss. So many possibilities. Hopefully they are open to fresh ideas going forward.

I solo'd this mission (Avalanche). I just stayed up on the rock where I put the laser thing and knifed them all in the face one by one. lol. I was lucky to be able to do that or I would have been stampeded. lol

There is no need for a generator, not an electric oven!
for crafting rifles

You do realise of course, that this game will have DLC content as part of its seasonal content, right ? And you will have more missions, more talents, more skills, more points... ? Right ? It's not a game that you rush, it's a game that you apreciate in the long term. Just wait next year and you'll see ;)
