RedneckWolf Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 "TEK Cave pool now refills your element, as well as causes you damage if you're not wearing a full element set" Can anyone elaborate on this patch note? Does this mean we will have to wear tek armor in the tek cave now? Or is there going to be a pool of element lol. What are ya'll's thoughts?

What are ya'll's thoughts? common sense says it will not GIVE you element, but rather recharge element that is currently powering your TEK suit. This is not rocket science.

Jrminot Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 If I remember correctly, there is a pool of liquid at the end of the cave. I am assuming that this change allows you to stand in it to replenish (and repair?) your tek gear. So it is sort of a added perk to running the cave.

This, and I think that if they implement a final boss, using the pool will be a must-do before taking on that boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vrallox Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 The patch didn't add that at all. I noticed the effect shortly after the tek cave was released. If I stood in the pool with any tek gear on it'd be recharged. The more tek armor I wore the less damage I took until I had a full suit on and took no damage. It simply recharges the energy of the tek items you're using. Why? I have no idea. Maybe the portal at the end will eventually take us to a boss and we'll be able to fight it with our tek crap. Well HAVE to fight it with our tek crap since a lot of non-tek items are superior. I also explored the area around the pool and there was nothing of interest except a few areas that will trap you in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiImZech Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 well you know for now getting your tek stuff recharged in there isn't going to do much if we're gonna lose them all in a min Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you sit through the cinematic and the credits you get booted and then log back in to the respawn window. At least I got booted every time I did it in singleplayer. Don't know about that part on official. You definitely have to respawn though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you spawn it in anywhere, you will have the items that you had on you when you ascended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose one could save the saddles of their mounts as well. I keep putting off doing it on official. I suppose I'll have to put it off even longer now that the bosses have been boosted to an insane degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On unofficial too... did the TEk cave twice (the gamma nd the alpha), alll of us respawned with full ear and invetory. Only the dinos were lost. So take the saddles before ascension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did the tek cave upon the major release, it removed EVERYTHING, including tek, again, on a live server. Later it was changed and you kept tek inventories. IF they changed it AGAIN, that's not something I'm aware of, but that's how it was when I posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingleSidedPCB Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Did the tek cave last weekend on unofficial NON clustered server, we all lost everything. additionally, when the respawn screen comes up we cant select a bed and cant change spawn region. we just spawn somewhere random. I don't know why they didn't just teleport players and dinos back to the tek cave entrance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
