gunk seeds should be more visible

[greginald]

collecting gunk seeds is too much of a chore compared to all of the other secondary objectives,especially the terrain of the magma area makes them so hard to get or see!

while all other secondary objectives are easy to see with either lights or cool colors like dystrum veins or booloo caps; the gunk seeds are solid grey and hang like all the other grey rock stalactites from the ceiling and with how huge some caves are the only way to find them is to litter the ceiling 30 meters away from you with all of scouts flares and swing your pointer around for 5 minutes straight hoping it lands on a gunk seed and not a stalactite...

my suggestion is that a light should be added to the end of the gunk seed plants just like the booloo caps because right now it is just the worst thing ever.

gunk seeds are fine tbh, just increase the number of spawns

gunk seeds like to spawn with barely any extra ones, if any

I understand that for some scouts shooting flares at the ceiling so that everyone can see the entire room clearly is not kosher but please try to engage with game mechanics for once

I'd assume someone who'll say "YoU nEeD alL ClasSeS".

They definitely need to be visible without a flare gun and without strong arm perk. But perhaps making them reflect light more would be enough.

They were talking about the fact that they look like literal ball sacks!

They're fine as is. It's an optional secondary mission, if you're having trouble just skip it. If visibility is a problem, bring a scout.

Or pull out your little tracker, it will literally ping the ball sacks when you scroll over it even in the darkness.

shooting 2 flares on the ceiling and shooting all of your flares in the same cave just so you can try and differentiate a stalactite and a gunk seed plant are different things ♥♥♥♥♥♥

I already talked about this in what I said but doing that for 5 minutes straight just for 1 seed when you need like 12 is way too slow and effort-needy when literally every other secondary obj. in the game is much more easy to collect

they just need to add a few additional gunk seeds over the required ammount, just like they do it with every other pre U31 secondary

They already do, you're just missing them unless there's a problem during mapgen

they sometimes only spawn the very required ammount, and otherwise often only one

I havent played any gunk seed missions outside of experimental yet, but i have seen reports of the same issue with gunkies many times since u31

Or you can just use your laser pointer. How else do you think I find cave leeches when we don't have a scout around?
