Title: Lost in the Deep Caverns, where to go? (Spoilers)
Post by: Altairp on December 24, 2015, 02:06:59 pm
After a glorious battle against the Faceless (and a cowardly escape towards the Institute's elevator), I descended into the Deep Caverns and talked to Six. He explained what to do, where should I go, and also directed me towards a nearby cavern full of man-eating fungi: to search for something useful against Tchort's minions and his gate.


Now, I explored said cave, fought against the unfriendly fauna, and also probably destroyed the source of said monsters (something big and red called 'Pulsating Roots'), yet, I still have no clue about what I'm supposed to do now. I tried making my way down the tunnel towards Tchort, but his debuff and servants always make short work of my character.


Am I missing something?

You can use my text map of DC(with small notes), its pretty garbage but better than nothing) Mb, somebody will make better one from my sketch

Hey, do you also know where to find the hydraulic fluid canisters? I found 2 in the locked warehouse, still need a third one ( I have the rest of the parts)

Sorry, I can't remember(too many things lies in DC), can only advise you to loot all areas(after powering them up from Arke Power Station too) and drill all walls with Jackhammer. Begin from first area and use my map for checkpoints %)

Damn. That's the problem, already checked almost everywhere.

And let me tell you, having the Faceless and horryfying monsters from the depths of nightmare attack me at every point does not help in any way in the search.

So, I have to gather something from the Pulsating Roots to craft grenades.


Damn it, I was hoping for something to mitigate the effects of Thcort's debuff. Oh well. Thank you, in any case :D

You can slow down stacking of the debuff by taking training (you gain a feat) from the old man in the cavern :)

I don't know if the game is bugged or something but after killing the pulsating roots, I try to navigate along that top area and there's this map where when I try to zone in it doesn't change maps and just puts me back on the zone in spot. The map has some square rock hole looking thing, not sure how better to describe it.

I'm presuming that's where I need to go as it has bats flying towards when I approach and I can't seem to see anywhere else to go so I'm basically stuck =/
Am I meant to go into where Six tells me Tchort is maybe?

Kill Boss, use his body(and loot) to transfer to area "Mushroom Forest 5"(with spore turrets) -> "Mushroom Forest 0" -> "Deep Caverns 1".

P.S. You must use his body transition with "non-combat" state.

Thanks for the reply, I made that post after a very long session. I'm happy my post was still legible :P
Since I'm playing with a fresh head again I'm just exploring the other areas behind where that six guy first appeared. Ran into the faceless camp so I'm just trying to figure out what the plan is now. :)

I had already looted the body and went down through its corpse before I made that post and I thought I travelled around everywhere below within the mushroom maps. The main thing that confused me was the map on that top level which I posted a picture of below (same level as that pulsating roots) which would not let me go through it and would just keep putting me back at the zone boundary point after doing the "fade to black" load screen.

I have your text document but it's difficult to make out, what text tool did you make it in?
Viewing it in notepad++, I can't make out what's connected to what around hollow earth 7 and many parts below. http://i.imgur.com/mmdM43Q.png

Where do you guys get these map names from btw? I understand the the NPCs refer some of the maps by names and what not but I mean the numbers you assigned to each of them.
Have I been missing something the whole time that tells me what map I'm in? I thought it was all just memory...

Bottom left of this map doesn't go anywhere. It just fades out/fades in on the same spot at the boundary of that map when attempt to go through it.

To get to that map, from the pulsating roots map you go to the west exit -> south exit.

Just like to add that "Deep Caverns 4 - with Elevator and Burrower" also has hydraulic fluid for those wondering.

I'm trying to "climb through" the pulsating root in order to return to the turret map. However, the game says I cannot interact with the object during combat. Do I have to defeat everyone before I can get out? That will be a losing battle I fear.

Hello !
First, game is really good and i started play from early acces.
But now iam in deep caverns...
English is not my native, maybe i missed smth in conversation with SIX.
Pls, tell me, what should i do ?
As i understand, i must open the gate to the Tchort, for this i should do a lot of things (find a lot of details, kill big mushroom, take smth from him and so on)
And also question about faceless in faceless base - when i talked with faceless commander (after mindreader) he said "ok, leave" and what's all !
But SIX told about supplies and so on !
What's wrong ?

The Faceless will only help if you were nice enough to them when you met them before DC. Based on what you said, they will not help you.

You may have already figured this out, since it's be awhile from when you posted; but just in case (or for someone else)..

You don't have to defeat everyone (in the zone). But you do have to defeat everyone that can see you. Then, you may have to endure up to several turns of no action (until the fight mode ends). Then you can climb.

The one way to GUARANTEE your survival in the 'shroom kingdom' is the use of the biohazard suit, only thing that'll ever harm you while wearing it are the "chompers" that well 'chomp' with their nasty 'gawp'.
Yes it'll be slow and 'cumbersome' but you will be immune to all attacks and hazards except the bites of the chompers.

As of the fluids yes there is one in the burrower nest outside of the south-western elevator, but there's also a canister of the fluid in the storage room in the Tchortist outpost which you'll gain access to once you've 'scouted' the faceless outpost out.
Hint: DO NOT talk to the Tchortists in the DP before you have been 'mind probed' by the faceless.

Also want to say that all the "shafts" supposedly for the gate mechanism don't matter at all except the one you DO need which can be found next to the obelisks in the "labyrinth".
