Return from Core – Советы и рекомендации для новых игроков

Are you a new Return from Core игрок? В этом руководстве, we will be showing you some of the most useful tips and tricks that were not mentioned during the tutorial of the game.

Учебник

In the tutorial, you’ll kick things off with a Splitting Pickaxe boasting 450 долговечность, but wave goodbye to it once you’re done learning the ropes. It’s sturdy enough for most mining tasks in the tutorial area, but not every block out there. If you fancy stockpiling starting materials, go ahead and use up all its durability before exiting the tutorial, via the hole the Train creates. Однако, no pressure, as you’ll stumble upon plenty of Limestone and Copper Ore in the first Level regardless. Limestone pops out of any non-ore block, while Copper comes from Copper Blocks or gets extracted from Copper Veins scattered on the floor in Level One. Should your trusty Splitting Pickaxe call it quits, не бойся; you can fashion a Stone Pickaxe to keep the whacking going if necessary.

Интересно, even if you bust your Splitting Pickaxe, you’ll still drop it during the cutscene when you bid adieu to the tutorial.

Примечание: Keep an eye out for skeleton remains scattered about; give ’em a good smack for a few coins to give your character a leg up in Level One. Плюс, they’ll cough up Bone Ashes, который, насколько я могу судить, serve one purpose only: to complete a Side Quest in Core Town.

Выносливость

Ever pondered about the mysterious gauge wedged between your Health and Stomach indicators? Что, мой друг, is Endurance. Picture a curved blue meter, ready for action. Its primary function? Powering those swift Dashes you pull off. Изначально, you’re granted three charges, но не бойся, for you can beef up your Movement Talent to snag more. These charges gradually refill over time, though you can hasten the process through Talent upgrades or by gobbling up some tasty Food/Potion buffs. Сейчас, here’s the catch: while Dashes come in handy for dodging enemy assaults, остерегаться! On-hit effects still rear their pesky heads. Например, zipping into a Slime’s spit might spare you the damage, but you’ll still be slapped with the Slowed debuff.

Old Joe

When you start Level One, you’ll encounter Old Joe, the tutorial NPC. He’s your go-to guy for learning how to tackle Main Story Quests and scoring some survival gear. You don’t have to wait for him to hand over those helpful items though. Рядом, there’s a Crafting Table where you can whip up your own gear. Но, осторожно! Some of the items Old Joe hands out can’t be dropped or sold. You’ll need to stash them away since there’s no trash bin in sight. Позже, when you find mini-dungeons, drop a storage container to stash these items, or try to ditch them before your auto-loot kicks in, though that’s a bit tricky.

Ой, и угадай что? Old Joe moonlights as a merchant. Got any junk lying around? Sell it to him for some coins, which you can then splurge on handy starting gear.

Keep an eye out for the red box with numbers next to each item at the merchant’s stall. This indicates how much stock the merchant has. You’re limited to purchasing that amount every day, with the stock resetting at 0:00 when the new day kicks in. With your starting coins, consider grabbing a Copper Pickaxe to replace the Splitting Pickaxe you misplaced. You can also stock up on food or seeds if necessary.

Even if you’re playing in a world with the fastest hunger rate, you can keep yourself well-fed by buying Wheat and Cabbage from Old Joe. Once he teaches you how to cook, whip up some tasty meals with these ingredients.

Shiny Blocks

As you journey through the Level, keep an eye out for those shiny blocks. They’re pretty neat because when you smash them, they spit out all sorts of goodies – предметы, монстры, you name it. Sometimes you’ll score some cool schematics for furniture or gear. В другое время, you might get your hands on some parts or junk that you can sell for a decent 2,000 монеты. Но будьте осторожны! Those monsters that pop out can be anywhere from super weak to ridiculously strong. Так, stay on your toes, or you might end up as a snack for the toughest ones out there.

Mini-Dungeons

Intimidating entrances might look scary, but they’re not too tough, especially if you’re on a mission to take down [х] враги. Once you step inside, you’ll find yourself in compact rooms packed with enemies itching for a fight. Just wipe them out, and you’ll move on. Обычно, these spots span a couple of floors before you clear them, rewarding you with a mystery loot box. You can tackle each mini-dungeon once a day, with the clock resetting at midnight. They’re handy for snagging blueprints for special gear, like the Rat line in Level One, a neat alternative to the standard Iron gear.

Keep an eye out for special mini-dungeons on different levels. They might mix things up with puzzle rooms or zones teeming with critters ready to swarm you as soon as you’re near.

I Need Healing

В игре, healing options can be scarce early on, making your journey a bit frustrating. The primary sources of healing are the Healing Dose Type 1/2/3 Зелья, which you can find in chests or get from Monster Girls. Once you reach Level 2 affection with them, they’ll sell Type 1 doses, до 5 в день, per Monster Girl. As your bond grows stronger, they might offer higher-tier doses like Type 2 or Type 3.

If you’re in dire need of healing, consider trying out certain food recipes like Grilled Steak or Mushroom Hot Pot, which grant temporary healing buffs upon consumption. В отчаянных ситуациях, you can also benefit from standing near a Bonfire (0.25% healing per second), soaking in a Hot Spring (1% healing per second), or resting in a bed (1% healing per second). Respawning is another option, though it comes with the penalty of leaving a corpse behind, unless you’ve unlocked the Penniless talent. Without this talent, you’ll need to retrieve your items from your corpse or respawn point.

Помнить, dying multiple times can be part of the game experience, and there’s even an achievement for respawning a hundred times!

If you perish while retrieving your items, не волнуйся; you’ll create another corpse to reclaim your belongings. While I’ve seen up to three corpses, there might be a limit before you risk losing your inventory.
