While their damage is insane, that is not the core problem with the new oil rig. The issue is the insanity that it's how tanky the enemies are. There have no business being that hard to kill. 2-3 hits with legendary rocket launcher + gobfins per mob is beyond insane.
That, coupled with the stupidly low chances of the things you came to this damn rig to begin with (especially the damn applied labor technique books), it just makes trudging through the rig more than once not even remotely worth it
@@patrickthehenchman2679i honestly gave up and installed a mod that boosts the books (books that upgrade pal work) drop rate to 5% that way it's still a reasonable grind. But I kept the schematics to the below 1% chance
@@angryasvegeta8027 Nope, but if you're on a server with multiple people trying to get those legends, the drop rates makes sense. In solo? Pure bullshit.
Are some small chests random spawn chance? I could've sworn there was suppose to be a purple chest on the top ledge at 5:16, maybe it's somewhere else, but I remember there being 2 chests nearby each other, one on a ledge, one below on the floor.
There was one chest missing, the one on the ledge. It has not spawned in my last few runs, so I think it has bugged and spawned under the water or inside the building.
How the freak are you doing that much damage on the chopper? I have maxed attack stat, epic homing launcher, use the mammorest meal yet only hit for 9-10k regular dmg n about 12k crit hit. What am I missing here?
What’s scary about this is that it’s still just the early access version. The enemies are already ridiculously tanky and tough, and there’s still high possibility there will be twice or more challenging oil rigs than this in later updates or the full version, it's just kinda daunting and not Worth with all the BS rewards 😅
It's in "early access" but this is the full game. It just easier to keep it in early access for all the legal rubbish. Fortnite was in "beta" for years dont know if it still is
Id like to also know, i havent got around doing the lv 60 oil rig as yet but i had the chest locations mapped out on the lv 55 oil rig. Would be nice to have that so i can make my own route based on my own gameplay.
@@hermesonaires7047 Unfortunately that is not the case. Central platform, the tower beside the central platform, at the end of the pier with 3 crushers, beside the building at the pier with 2 crushers.
@@hermesonaires7047 Yup, thankfully if it's on the tower by the central platform if you look up at it you can see the glow through the floor, as there is no reason to go up there if it isn't there.
For normal settings, they either should nerf the hp on the enemies or at least make the drop rates higher because It just doesn't seem worth it. Before anyone says "just change the settings" I play on a designated server so I can't. I'm also speaking on the perspective of others just doing a normal playthrough. That's my opinion though
for hard setting server, everything in this oil rig will only need 2sec (start counting when they start to shoot) to drop u dead btw, i'm wearing legendary hex armor, tried to increase my DEF to 2k and it only nid 0,5 -> 1 sec for Syndicate Crusher to kill me with full shield LOLOL, so i guess just normal is not enough, hard too pls kek
The HP is overtuned. Initially I thought that it was because we would get a lot of power creep with the new weapons, but as showcased the best weapons to run are the level 50 rocket+4 and 55 Quad+4... devs made this whole update just a time sink and its starting to feel pretty bad.
no I agree with this. even if you go through the arduous hours of "grind for these specific skilled pals and top tier weapons and armor" stuff just to make it to the rig, going through the equally arduous trek across the rig to kill the overpowered enemies just for the .1% CHANCE for certain loot you actually want that barely ever spawns even in an area as high level as this meaning you have to do it all over again like 150 times just to MAYBE get(cough applied labor technique books cough), not only is it not fun, but it's just not worth it.
Not really related to the vid but is it possible to get/farm lucky alpha pals? Just curious as they would be very big Also, is it really worth killing everyone since they're so omega tanky? I usually just do all chests around the big one
Gale's partner skill does not scale on anything other than condensation level so you can run it with whatever set you want. I think the Professor has a vid on it from pre-SJ Personally i run Vanguard/Stronghold/Noble/Fine Fur, but if you like Motivational Leader you can run that and something like Mine Forman with your Van/SS. Same deal with the Gobfin, just do personal buffs.
@@bobnewkirk7003 Ok ty, thought so. I run most my support pals with mining/vanguard, noble, fine fur and strategist too. Depending on the job of course.
@@unclelizard5580 These reduce the cost of stuff you buy and increase the price of stuff you sell. The description only mentions that you get more money. I never tested if it actually does that, but it definitely reduces the cost of stuff, so it's good either way for money management. Lategame you can just (literally) print infinite money, but early game where money is somewhat limited and comes mostly from selling your pal box, making it last matters. That's 3% and 5% per pal, so a full team adjusts prices by quite a lot.
@@unclelizard5580 I pretty much always have my Gale/Gob team on me so rather than swapping back and forth to vendor stuff i just have N/FF on them. from a combat perspective only V/SS offer any benefit so the last two slots are free, and honestly I'm just lazy. If your not aware N/FF Decrease the cost of purchasing items and Increase the sell price of items you sell to the vendor. So the primary strategy for endgame is to produce something high-value (Legendary spheres), sell them to the vendor with the N/FF markup, then buy whatever you need (Fluid, Bone, Milk, Eggs, Organs etc) instead of doing any ranching.

Dam that should be a guaranteed exotic just for style points.
They got bro zipping around like Levi the new oil rig is insane lmao
The music of the attack chopper fight makes it feel similar to a Metal Slug boss fight.
All that work for those schematics is a joke. Drop rates on solo are unbelievable...
Are the drop rates better on multiplayer server?
@@angryasvegeta8027 Nope, but if you're on a server with multiple people trying to get those legends, the drop rates makes sense. In solo? Pure bullshit.
@@hermesonaires7047they don't make sense in solo or multiplayer what are on about?
Even with dashboard farming it takes so long
Yes, and that was the reason why we opted for a mod that buffs the drop rate (:

DAMMIT and i thought iahd all chests figured out turns out i didn't know of the location of 2 of em

Vanguard on 4 pals and gobfins in the party.
3 attack pendants as well.
How are you so zoomed out while you are mounted
Change the mounted fov from game graphic settings
@AnalogOtaku thank you very much
In settings there is both a fov slider and a mount camera distance setting.
@ProfessorPenking thank youuuuu
I see you built the felbat with meteorain like you suggested, though you opted not to have vanguard?

Gonna Tell you Man... All the resources you have to use to kill ALL enemies is unbelivable... Professor you know all the big chest locations?

The new rig has only one location for the big chest.

My friend made a mod for that yesterday but he's not posting it until the balance is right. It comes with a schematic workbench to combine schematics.
@BudgetNugs if it needs a mod i guess no is the answer, that's unfortunate, thanks for replying though 😊
Can't use mods on ps sadly
Not possible in game, lucky(shiny) pals count as Alpha pals so therefore an Alpha (boss) pal can't also be a shiny
thank you for the explanation:)
I assume eternal engine and such do nothing for galeclaw, and it's basically just about utility (ie player stats)?

The pal professor is back 😮
Cant play the Game its freezing like ever minute for a few Seconds and i dont know how to fix this
Xbox?
Drop more context if you actually want help.
Its winter what u expect? 🤷♂️
Its because of your mods. It freezes when autosaving every 30 seconds. Disable mods or set autosave to every 30 minutes or so.
Crap loot. Totally not worth it.
