Bugs / Gorsky quest bugs
« Last post by yako on Today at 12:46:21 pm »
It is impossible to win the initiative on the first try during the assault on black crawlers, even if you have enough points with all feats, gear, consumables, etc. You only can attack first if you reload "cp_blackCrawlerBase".

It also appears that you are locked out of his quests and ending if you travel to DC without speaking to Tanner after finding the drill parts (also impossible to get GMS card back, should one need it for some reason). Gene probably should still give you the key along with brew in this case.

Suggestions / Electroinvestigative Belt should lower Reload AP cost
« Last post by gk_ on Today at 12:20:44 pm »
I believe adding a Lowered Reloading AP cost to any weapon that recharges with batteries would help it compete with Bioinvestigative belt in the context of late-game quest reward, as the bio belt is by far the more general go-to choice if the player isn't specializing in Chem or Energy guns.

Gameplay-wise, doing this can add another choice for melee builds to agonize over (excluding Lifting Belt, which is most likely to get picked up by hammer mains), as most melee build will tend to prefer :
-Doctor's pouch for med spam
-Waist Pack for hoarding
-Trapper or Utility belt for Batman roleplay(Caltrop, flashbang, nades, etc.)

With Lowered Reload AP cost, it can help push further specializing into 10 INT High Technicalities Melee build as another option. Also, given that it's a rather late-game item, I doubt it's going to interfere with the overall balance of the game. I just see it more as a QoL adjustment.

Balance-wise you can strip away one of the 4 bonus to bring it more in-line with other belts. Some options for that could be:
-Grants 1 extra utility slots (down from 2)
-Remove Electronics bonus or lower it
-Remove %Energy damage taken reduction or lower it

One out-of-context thing that always bugs me is that after (properly) resolving Lenox's quest Arlene continues to talk about Mordre and his cigars as if nothing happened. While it's only a part of a larger issue of nobody in SGS reacting to the truth about Mordre, at least it's trivially fixable.

Title. Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aF4DunBmbtI

Just the damage of the punch itself travels down the chain. Damage of all other psychokinetic abilities appears to be transferring just fine (Electrokinesis, Telekinetic Punch and Implosion, from what I've tested, including the instance copied by the Proxy), so I'd imagine Force Emission isn't supposed to be an exception.

Bugs / PSP and throwing net interaction
« Last post by PaposikG6 on Today at 10:17:42 am »
If I am not mistaken, throwing nets and bolas seem to ignore stacks of pseudo-spatial projection. This psi skill mentions only weapon and unarmed attacks so it might be intentional, although it does look like an oversight that an enemy cant hit you with a weapon but can hit you with a net.

Edit: might also affect some special attacks like sormirbaeren acid blob attack

If you complete the main storyline without accepting any of Tanner's quests after finding the drill parts, your character still can mention that "The tasks Tanner gave me were all somehow connected to the mysterious object which was stolen from the Faceless". You probably should tell a slightly different story in this case.

If you have already found Terry Baker's keycard and returned Lora without taking the missing merchants quest, then talked to Vera and others, some dialogue options about them will appear with Rail Crossing and Core City characters. It is probably the same if Lora died in DC or left with Faceless (you know her fate anyway at this point). There's also no option to return the keycard to her or give it to Vera.

Go to Leonie, Foundry entrance merchant, she should have an option to smelt Metal Scraps that you get from recycling metal items. They will give you low quality steel.

a back and forth trip to foundry (in most cases) is 50 charons flat (1500 static value), the cost of processing 100 metal scrap (assuming they were all gained through loot instead of recycling more valuable items, which would make it at a loss) is 30 charons (900 value) and including a 30 minute wait time, it is next to impossible to save in these circumstances unless you looted all the metal scrap, walked to foundry, and have a very low mercantile skill. returning to the example of adrenaline, every medical vendor has the resources needed to craft it while standing in front of him while saving money; I think something as common as ammo or other combat utilities' crafting components should share the same characteristics.

How is spending 50 charons relevant to the topic? Especially when you can get to Foundry for free, and fast travel with Expedition for super cheap.

Aside from that, your OP stated:

as the game progresses, low-quality, cheap steel becomes harder to come by and, as a result, quantity producing crafting recipes such as caltrops, bullets, throwing knives, and bear traps increasingly lose cost savings until it's cheaper to just buy said bullets and utilities (unless you want a specific ammo type and/or poisoned utility), this has the effect that these recipies are almost not used at all.

For 30 charons you get low quality steel. If 30 charons is so much that it's impossible to save, then I have some bad news for you. You mentioned for some reason mercantile, well here is the math:

Since 30 charons = 900 value, we use x2 and x1.15 price values from mercantile, in this case we divide (because 900 is the final value).

450-250/7=28Q
&
782-250/7=76Q

This means for 30 charons at 0 Mercantile you can buy 28Q and lower. With discount cap Mercantile you can buy 76Q and lower.

Crafting ammo isn't meant as a substitute to buying, it's meant to give you additional resources, and even ammo hungry ARs and LMGs aren't gonna run out of either ammo or money with half-decent usage. You sell expensive loot, you recycle inexpensive, and with crafting get an additional stream of fuel for committing warcrimes on pipeworkers.

If you were able to save money and continue fighting just by crafting ammo alone, then there would be no point in the economy and skill system as it is. It doesn't take into account metal quality, which means you have to look at it under a different angle. For 30 charons and abundant Metal Scrap you can get MORE metal for crafting, not how much you are spending/saving. Mercantile just increases the amount you can buy for the same price raw.

This is ever more evident on DOM, where you sell items at 25% value, so you can't compensate dumping mags with one Tungsten Armor set sold and resupply at your local gun store.
