UNDERWATER METAL SPAWNS PLZ

[Rubmywrinklz]

The pvp servers especially need to have a wider range of spawns for resources. Underwater, already being a difficult place to navigate safely should be more worth while. Most people/tribes either have a land base or a water oriented base with one of the two dino types, not both. It is a very big advantage for the land basers to always be able to get metal, and thus be generally safer. Getting oil and pearls is not hard at for someone with increased oxygen even without an underwater mount. but metal is very heavy and hard to transport in comparison, so making a journey for it is otherwise asking for trouble. I'd propose metal spawns in underwater caves, or deep ocean metal spawns in general.

If your gonna have underwater metal spawns how about air bladders you can makke/inflate to get the metal to the surface ?

Like a compressed air charge in a flare gun to inflate the hide air bladder ?

Just go up the mountains. Search for rocks w/ golden vein like textures. They give a lot of metal especially when you use metal tools. You can just get any land dino to carry the metal for you. Also have a raptor to get you in and out of there.

With Water Dinos, no need. But interesting idea.

Any decent aquatic base has flyers for metal runs.

Bird work very well in aquatic bases above the water

So it's ok for people with inland bases to sacrifice stats for oxygen but you're unwilling to tame a different dino or walk up a mountain? I'm not sure I understand why this is a legitmate problem for everyone else.

I swear I've seen metal while mining oil and pearls. is there not already some metal under the water?

you have to sacrifice stats for oxygen anyway. not having increased oxygen is a terrible idea

^ This. It isn't anything actually barring you from the metal or crystal you might want. You have the options available to reach the resources you want, just use them.

One the other hand, it is good to encourage tradeing bettween costal and inland tribes, tradeing oil and pearls for metal and crystal.

The major difference is the WEIGHT. for a land dwelling inland builder, running around with 200 oil from the water is no problem. For a water oriented island builder, you have to swim to the mainland, walk up a mountain, and then make your way back with an inventory of 60-100 metal ore at the most.

Inland builders have an advantage of easy protection for their dinos. Larger access to resources, larger range of dinos to tame ect... On an island you have only the resources that regularly spawn there, and taming mainland dinos is out of the question (drowning).

Oil is something you only need in small batches for the most part. Metal is constantly being used. Why not make metal more universally available? Tribes are already walling off cave entrances.

Tame 5 eagles, fly them all on follow to a mountain, mine it dry, fly back .. WIN! Its that simple.

[Rubmywrinklz]

And then some guy comes in the night and kills all your eagles lol

[UNSTWAPPABLE!!]

Metal is universally available, on mountains.
