Add oddities to Black Crawler and Azuridae Goliath
« on: July 14, 2021, 11:26:44 pm »
Maybe to Rathound Alpha as well? A single 2 xp oddity would be fine, maybe a 3 xp for the Black Crawler and 3 2 xps for the goliaths, at the moment there is little reason not to just sneak past or avoid goliaths.
Im working on maknig a guide for new players on DOMINATING. Help needed. Do not PM me.

On the one hand, there's too much oddity exp in the game already, but if Styg were willing to remove or lower some of the oddities to make some room, I do think the black crawler lair at least should have some unique oddities.  I'd be in favor of goliaths having at least one oddity, and crawlers/deathstalkers having more than 2 x2 (even if it were 4 x1).  Hunchbacks too.  The acidic folks at depot A are very oddity heavy; femurs, tongues, claws, eyeball; we could take 1 or 2 from those.

The free city oddities could use a nerf. Just yesterday, I beat Depot A at level 10, and got level 14 just by taking the train and grabbing free oddities in Rail Crossing, Foundry, and Core City. Granted, I do have pickpocket/lockpick/hacking, and I did kill some worms in the Foundry mine
So, removing some of these and putting them behind mini-bosses could be an idea

i dont see why we not oversaturate game with oddities because now you need to collect 95% of oddities to reach level 30.Without expedition its not making much sense

You've got bigger obstacles to reaching level 30 if you don't have Expedition

Because that makes the game even easier.  There was too much to begin with imo.  I'm okay with adding new oddities, I would just also like to remove some of the redundant ones or reduce the award given by many of them.

It would be nice to give the Goliaths and Black Crawler some XP by themselves, they're among the most hellish enemies in the game
