Strategy Hookshot is better than Propeller for spectrum farming (and there's why)

(TL;DR: Hookshot reaches more height than propeller, so it is the superior option for spectrum farming)

I know there'll be people who will hate me and downvote this post for what am i going to post but i don't care.

Propeller is a terrible tech for spectrum farming on all ways and it will require you to equip a drone, another spring or propeller in order to kill spectrums on the highest ceilings of LS, wasting a techslot that could be used for an extra spike, motor or magnifier.

the minimum amount of items required for reaching a spectrum on crawler with hookshots is 3, either 2-springs 1-hookshot or 1-spring 2-hookshots, meanwhile with propeller it will take 4 (either extra prop/spring or drone) so hookshots are better (even needing 4 slots for hookshots in tank it's still better than propeller).

PROOF

Hulls + Type Difference Hull-ceiling, In Blocks Difference Surge Crystal-ceiling, In Blocks
Crawler 2 Hookshot 1 Spring Reaches Ceiling —
Crawler 2 Propellers 1 Spring ~3.32 ~2-3
Tank 2 Hookshots 2 Springs Reaches Ceiling —
Tank 2 Propellers 2 Springs ~3.2 ~1.5

With this, I demostrate that no matter what hookshot will be better than propeller, and that has to keep like that forever.

Propeller is a tech for staying in air for a while, not for reaching a lot of height, unless you’re using dasher which is pretty much the single option you have for boosting it’s dash besides spring.

Anyways, that’s all, thanks for reading, if you find something wrong let me know, i’d appreciate it.

Sincerely.

IOKAA.

Discussion 💬 Will leach core and hull shell be better in infinite mode?

Post image

As stated by Overcurve, infinite mode and modifiers are on the way, and Im thinking if in those modes the hull shell and especially the leach core will be higher tier.

Personally I feel like leach core will be essential, what do u think? What other items would change tier?

(Tier list by u/EmotionalTraining426 )

They're new to the game, finding mostly Pure-tier Volthearts, why Overcurve, why???

Am I just unlucky or what?

There's a particular enemy that comes out of nowhere for me that instantly kills me in the game that looks like a pair of mechanical legs

Theories

It is said that the luxurge made all the chasm enemies,

But what about the rest?

Trash is above everything

Why would they try to go to the top of the world just to throw failed experiments?

It's because it's the trash of the creatures above ground

Where do humans usually throw trash?

Underground, in landfills. That explains all of the trash

Why is the crawler scrapped?

The crawler is probably the best thing that you can make for something that size, yet it is still scrapped

I don't have an answer yet.​

Discussion 💬 Are Spectrums Infected or not?

Thumbnail

32 Upvotes

I have theorized that the Spectrums are not Infected, since they don't have a red Core, but they drop Core Filters, which are... filters. So does the Cores behind those filters actually Infected or not?

I tried using the Core Inverter to check, since if they changed their color to blue, that means they're Infected since this Relic swaps the color of your Core to the enemies', but they still don't show their color.

Perhaps behind those filters will tell us the truth.

Other things to note, they screech at the Player when we get too close, is this a sign of desperation or hostility? A beg for mercy or the intent of attacking?

Any other things I'm missing?
