September forced wipe notes
Scrap costs on tier two, the new boat, and what changed at Launch Site.
Most wipes are decided in the first two hours. This guide covers the route I take from the beach to a two by two with a tool cupboard, and what to do when someone is already camping the road.
The first ten minutes
Hit nodes on the way, not in a loop. You want 1,000 wood and 300 stone before you touch a monument.
- Craft a stone hatchet first, then a stone pickaxe.
- Pick up hemp as you pass it. You need it for the sleeping bag.
- Avoid the road until you have a bow.
Picking the spot
Look for a rock formation that blocks two sides. The fewer open angles a raider has, the more sulfur they spend.
A base that takes one extra rocket to reach the TC is a base that most groups skip.
Upkeep
| Tier | Wood per day | Stone per day |
|---|---|---|
| Twig | 4 | 0 |
| Wood | 140 | 0 |
| Stone | 0 | 280 |
Use bind f "+forward;+sprint" to auto-run between nodes.
