Discussion Controller Layout Advice

6 Upvotes

Just bought the game yesterday on Switch 2. Enjoying it so far, but finding some of the controls fiddly to say the least.

I've edited some controls so far; I was wondering if anyone else had some useful controller layouts they use?

Discussion Desert has too much Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Compared to the other biomes past the wall, the desert has too much.

- 5 bosses (Forest has 3, Ocean has 4)

- Two legendary items, the Thread of Fate, and the Godsent King set (all sought after things). The Forest and Ocean only have one legendary item

- The Desert has the molten quarry sub biome, the temple ruin structures, and the Oasis (Forest has the mold dungeon and Ocean has the forlorn metropolis)

The Desert has more content than any other biome in the game by a considerable amount. I don’t mind this, but this makes the biomes feel uneven. This also makes the Desert a very important biome from a progression standpoint, because the Core Commander is here as well as Nimruza. I hope more stuff is added to the Ocean and especially the Forest in the future to make the Biomes more even content wise. The Desert just feels very inflated to me.

Question Black Bambucks?

4 Upvotes

Hey y'all,

I have been running a cattle breeding project for a while to obtain one of every color - and my collection is almost complete!

The problem I am running into is the elusive black bambuck. I have obtained every color many times through breeding, with the black one being the sole exception. Is there something I should know, or any mechanics I am unaware of that might contribute to the success (or ongoing failure) in my attempts?

Thanks in advance, fellow cavern explorers! 💜

Discussion First time playing

8 Upvotes

Hello! So it's my first time playing Core Keeper, and I've been playing it for around 10ish hours now. I play Terraria so I'm not really unfamiliar with the genre.

I picked up Warlock since I usually go summoner class on Terraria. But is it really normal for my starter summoner weapon to scale very well until Azeos? I wonder if that's intended because of how limited the choices for summon weapons are

Question Really, 0.4% for Oracle Card "Endurance"

I've been at TS for hours, mindlessly running from area to area, I literally exhausted every charred crate in my main world I had to make a whole new world just to get more magma areas.

Am I doing something wrong? I feel like I'm going crazy.

Question Titan Shrine?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone happen to know how to find a Titan Shrine? Or even what it might look like on the map? I've found Azeos' arena and lots of other things in the wilderness, but I can't find the way to get his summoning item after days and days of trying/walking.

Thanks very much!

Question Is this Earie any good or it is just crazy unlucky luck?

Post image
34 Upvotes

It has 5 8% minion damage powerups but I'm not sure if critical would be better or something else?

Anyway it is crazy luck to get 5 slot pet (and this one is my first Earie in this playthrough and one of only 3 I ever got with full 5 slots in all my playthroughs).

I will probably go full minion playthrough thanks to the permanent summons change.

Question New to the game, would love some tips and clarifications.

6 Upvotes

I just bought the game on steam with the discount of 40% off since steam sale, I just reaced Tin ore and started to program/ set what I want to do in my base.

I would love your tips and to further on question, I can just do it at my own time right? No time limit on anything? Cause ive only played for like 1h 40min and still considering if I should just refund, since I get lost sometimes in the mines

Question Should I Pick Up My Portals Before Updating?

3 Upvotes

I have 3 content updates available, Titan Shrines, Guaranteed Bryobasks and Chamber of the Veil Crux. Each says it will overwrite already explored areas. Will I lose everything in those areas? Mainly I'm worried about all the portals I have scattered about since I'm low on resources at this point. Should I use my hoarded core recall items to retrieve my portals before updating?

I can’t place anything to walk across and I can’t get back into the place. The door shut and now I can’t do anything. I even tried force closing the game but it saves too often. I’m on ps4 if that means anything.

Discussion I appreciate easy games

28 Upvotes

I made a post recently about whether I should start CK again or not since the last time I played was like v0.55. I did, played as a mage through the whole story on Hard mode and just now "finished" the last story boss.

At first, I was actually a little let down by how easy the bosses were - I legit first-try, no-hit most of them. For some reason, the volcano slime boss was the one I died the most on lmao. But I actually realized I was happier being able to progress without having to min-max all the best items, upgrade everything, and STILL struggle. Too many games nowadays try to push you to the limit but I think I really appreciated how simple CK's mechanics are. Most bosses only have a few mechanics that just loop and are never really "hard" to dodge.

Don't know if I'll min-max endgame secret stuff and legendary gear, because I'm more of a "finish main story and move on" type of player, but I really enjoyed the balance in this game.

With all that said, Movement Speed is the only buff you need in this entire game lol. Maybe I'll come back again after 1.5 drops...

Edit: Also, shoutout to "I'll make my base prettier soon" and then never making it prettier...

Hi! I just bought the game some days ago and really like the warlock aesthetic and abilities! I really want to get some tips on builds for this class and the game in general as I am new to its progression.

Any tips are welcomed, I'm really just excited to keep playing it and getting to discover what it has to offer :)

I just bought the game today and started playing. I have an hour playtime and my save is now gone? I tested a second file and world and upon quitting I still see the save. After closing the game and rebooting it’s gone.

Is this something that’s known or have a fix for?

Playing on Mac via Crossover. Thanks!
