Cave run?

Penfold · January 30, 2018, 11:17:03 PM

I'm planning on doing the cave run tomorrow (Wed) if anyone's up for it?

It's the cave we explored on foot before where no dinos will fit (52 down 23 across). We have Ravi's in there so hopefully we can use them and ziplines for access. I see Oldie and Snokio have bred Ravi's and perhaps had a little explore? Any good?

This is the artifact of the Depths. Think Whitey may have done this cave but I'd like to have a go.

Not on 'til about 8.30pm. Anyone up for it?

I'll be there.

Snokes and I had a little explore. First time in I lost all my armour to a centipede. Second time in I fell in the water and was rescued by your mega which appeared from nowhere! So very much looking forward to a group effort in there.

Me and JAS did it last week and there is an easy (ish) route to the artifact with a couple of people. Take some good guns, climbing picks (just in case) and the zipline motor on your trousers (remember to fill them with gasoline). I will hopefully be on.

Aye the mega's won't go under the waterfall which is why they're on wander.

I think the Ravi's may so happy to go in and clear out the caves using them and use them with the ziplines. Otherwise well it was easy to breed a couple and walk them in when small and do a couple of mega eggs so no biggie

got a ravi, but they are feckers to stop wandering off when breeding...and i took 2 of each kibble we had at drake view down with me. good thing i did 1st care...rock drake kibble, had it in zero already. So i did the pre-emptive run thing so the 2 runs took 20 secs each. Bit i still failed to get to 100% by 23 seconds. i think this is broke!!! there is no way to get %100 with ravis as far as i can tell. Anyhow my spino and i are parked at pens.

You don't need any dinos in there as long as you take your time.

I did breed up enough Ravi's for everyone to use. Given their limited use and the face they're stuck I didn't waste kibble on them though.

It was easy enough just to breed them and leave them to mature. Rinse and repeat - hardly a lot of work and gave me summat to do of an evening.

Happy to use them but it will be a very quick run and not as much fun

The other caves will be more challenging ! :narnar:

I have some errands to do so please let's do this at 8.30pm if we can.
