How are you supposed to get water in Aberration?
I started in the easy portal spawn and can not find water anywhere close. Without spots for wells or rain wouldnt that leave large portions of the map un-livable?

Aquatic mushrooms didn't work on release. Reservoirs will slowly get water in over time, but you need to make like 20+ to be worth it.

I dont get this whining.
Ive been building ontop of a cliff near the map limit and i simply build pipes along the cliffside to the nearest river or water source.

With them climbing axe you can build to almost everywhere. My Water line is about 100 meters long and "no water nearby" isnt a excuse.^^

Aqua mushrooms don't work. But one of the others is great for food and water. It's not the aqua, the narcotic or the golden one. I can't remember the name but that should be specific enough.

Anyway, go just outside of the portal spawn. I tamed a raptor before jumping down so I could run away from anything too nasty, and that kept me alive long enough to build a stone building with a smithy, a forge and a bed. Then it got killed by ravagers and I had to hang from a mushroom for half an hour, but now I have my own army of ravagers and some roll rats. Not a hard to start up, even solo. Just be prepared to have to do long distance trips for metal.

EDIT before anyone tries to tell me I'm wrong about the aqua mushrooms, I'm not. My client and the server I'm on are both updated to the latest available patch and they do not work. It may be a player-specific bug.

Aqua mushrooms do work. they work like stamina. eat a bunch and stop moving. your water will refil. and the gold mushrooom is a stimberry. it will kill u if ur out of water lol

there are water mushrooms that you can eat for hydration, however they also drain your hunger a bit so it's better if you hae on hand something to eat too

Lmao I'll tell you when it's the end. I'm not asking, I'm telling. They're still bugged. They work for some and not for others. Your experience does not determine everyone elses experience.
They do not work.

Right. Well when you know what you are talking about i'll listen. you just told eeveryone that the gold mushrrom gives food and water. mushroom are counter to the berries on the other maps! GOLD is STIM, BLUE is NARCO. Then there is BROWN which buff against the spores and AQUA which provides WATER. All work as intended. But you dont know how to use them and thus cry about them not working. prime example of a dead survivor you make. Alpha up dude

Aquatic mushrooms work on official servers. Perhaps not on unofficial.

All that being said, I found the "easy" tunnel you spawn in to be far more challenging than spawning in one of the fertile lake zones. That was a much better place to start.

Rotfl you must be joking. There are lots of rivers and lakes in easy zone. Even in blue zone there is a lot of water. Its ark survival. Not tetris. Dont expect that it will be easy to survive. How did you manage to play on scorched earth? Its far more hard than abberation.

One could think the title would give it away.^^
