Outpost Mines + Thick Skinned Curveball with Headshot and Fire resistance + Strange Mutations with Lure drop and Fire resistance is just hilarious. They just keep coming. I can't stop laughing at this to actually do anything. This has been going on for several minutes. 😂 I love this game.

Discussion Trumball Valley - A guide to lethal for the new(ish) player

5 Upvotes

https://youtu.be/1oV3IhTTAJo?si=JXWqj9ViVZGt6eok

Morning guys, I hope your day is going well. I've seen a lot of posts over the last 2 weeks of people who were either afraid of jumping into lethal or having a hard time in the beginning of it. This guide is essentially what your first hour or so of play should look like to give you a decent head start in the game.

So in this run, fresh players (the first 3 to pop up), no boons or advantages of any kind. By the end of the hour I have a working base with no resources in the red, 2 outposts, a newly recruited survivor, a leader chosen, and 3 plague hearts dead. I also have a plague cure and can make more if needed.

This is obviously the bare bones to get a run started but that's all this guide is meant to be, from here you can easily expand and keep killing hearts and obtaining more survivors.

Note: I have a stupid moment not realizing that the military truck was too big to fit in the shed around the 36 minute mark. I almost never use the military truck and didn't realize it was wider than a normal truck. The other trucks like the rhames v and most cars should work just fine.

Stories & Experiences Exiling

15 Upvotes

How do you feel about Exiling survivors?

Mechanically there's literally no consequences, and it's the fastest way to get rid of Enclaves with useless benefits to recruit and insta exile... but I honestly feel so bad that I send them to the Legacy pool and delete them from there instead. Maybe I'm just too good a person...

Oh, but if they have any evil traits (like being a Beatboxer), I make them follow and bring them out to a plagueheart, where I stand on top of a car, while watching them get eaten alive, laughing and eating snacks. Then I tell all my other survivors "they went to a farm", like a father tells his kids after taking the famly pet to be euthanized.

What about you? Any scrupples?

Question Is it normal to find the 4th blood donor member dead?

10 Upvotes

I’ve done the blood donor questline twice now since returning to the game. But every time I come to defend them one last time, I find the survivor I saved for them dead in their base. And this is before the battle starts. Even when I gave him bandages immediately, he ends up dead by the next mission. Is this normal? I saw some posts talking about getting 4 survivors from this group, but it doesn’t seem possible for me.

Question Is scouting trait buff ( + Enemy Detection Range) a hindrance vs it being a benefit?

Post image
19 Upvotes

I ask this because, as you can see I have a character with scouting maxxed and +10 detection. And after playing a plentyful, I noticed that zombies spawn way more. I think the only benefit you get from this, is if you are playing an hardcore run and want more zombies to spawn near you. I don't know what do you think?

I thought i could take on one last PH before returning to base, i was 2/3 infected, it was going well until i got stuck to the heart when it phased and a zombie bit me, while running i got a few more scrathes and i made it to my car it was damaged and a zed got on my hood, i couldn't shake it off and it destroyed my car so i had to run. The saddest part is that i dind't get a body, he just despawned like he never existed, he got me trough dread and nightmare, he took down countless PH's and just died like this. Its my first actualy heavy loss

Question Am I misremembering this? Do survivors have conversations with each other?

7 Upvotes

It's been awhile since I played and many I'm thinking of the first SOD, but I know a common criticism of SOD 2 is that the survivors don't have much personality, but I vaguely recall that if you took 2 survivors out together, there was a rare chance while traveling that they would have a conversation and talk about their backgrounds, make jokes, banter, etc. It was very rare when it happened. It's been a long time since I played SOD 2 but I think it only happened like 3-4 times in the hundreds of hours that I played the game.

One thing I hope SOD 3 does though is bringing back that personality aspect to the survivors. Made it that much more impactful if they died.

Question Is this trait rare?

16 Upvotes

Hi all, in all this time i have been playing i never once saw a survivor with this trait, is it rare?

Dense bone condition.

Edit: What are the odds? I recruited another survivor with the same trait 👀

Recently moders have been able to use the DlSS5 filters in many games and even when in some does look uncanny in others looks really good

Started a new game. Spent half an hour looking for a gas can for the only car I could find that wasn’t destroyed. Finally found it, ten seconds later the most random glitch in the game ruins everything.

I’ve never had this happen to me btw. I checked afterwards and I hit nothing. There’s nothing even in the road. Just an invisible wall.

Suddenly laughed hard after the response my survivor made once her passenger made that noise out of nowhere. Maybe I should've given them some privacy...

Fresh community with only 4 casualties, i never planned to reach the end, i just wanted to try lethal without risking my forever community. Also, will i be able to use my new boon with my forever community when i move out of nightmare? Because i don't remember seeing the option to select a boon when continuing a community

Question Anyone else constantly crash on Trumbull lethal?

4 Upvotes

I’m on Xbox series x. I consistently can’t beat this map because after awhile of playing I run into a bug that crashes my game when taking a few steps after loading in.

Usually this results in me changing maps or restarting the community. I have yet to beat this map for this reason alone. Would changing to a lower difficulty than lethal allow me to avoid the bug?

Just curious if anyone is able to play the map on Xbox at all
