so we took care of that troll. we just blew everything of his up. and we locked him in a metal box with ac on and a deadon on healing. also food and water dont drain on the server. so now i am free to expand my base on the mountain. i was out on my raptor i tamed. i was down on the plains near the volcano looking for something to tame and i was ambushed by a horde of sabers. managed to kill off the low levels. i knocked out a 300, 300, 190 and 180. gave them the mutton and let them tame. once tamed i bred them to get the stats. when i used dododex to compare stats the health was really high, stam was high, weight was average. melee was off the roof. i ended up with a purple coloured saber. i called her kyber (star wars reference). i also got a male purple one which i called mace windu (also star wars). i took kyber out. she was a beast. i got 20k chitin killing bugs on the volcano. on my way back i came across a pack of high lvl raptors. so knocked them out and tamed them. so did not do much aside from tame some sabers and raptors.

And I'm back to actually talk about the contents of the Chronicles. The notes themselves are mostly lacking in story. They tell more about HLN-A as a character than about the story of Genesis. First: HLN-A At first I figured that the Mini HLN-A was really just a Mini Helena, as in, Helena copied herself into a little drone for you, but HLN-A seems to be an entirely new person, with no understanding of Helena or how survivors survive. Any part of Helena that was put into HLN-A is a very tiny one so HLN-A can be considered her own person I suppose. Second: Genesis Pretty obvious but it deserves a point here. Genesis is definitely a simulation like people were thinking, and of course, this brings me to my next, final, and most important point, Third: Corrupted Avatar Skin What do you need to be in a simulation? An avatar of course! An avatar is what you play as in any simulation or game. In Ark, your character is your avatar of course. If you were playing goat simulator, the goat is your avatar. You get the idea. So of course, an avatar could be defined as a sort of fake body. It's you, but not really. You're just pretending to be it. A sort of you away from you. Now, if there is a corrupted avatar, then there are three possibilities: 1) The simulation is creating a fake corrupted thing for you to fight 2) The simulation itself is corrupted 3) The person controlling the avatar is corrupted Now, if you take a close look at the helmet skin, you can see that the glowing blue parts look very similar to the homo deus skins. So from now on when I say 'Avatar' I'm going to be referring to a Homo Deus's chosen physical form. With that out of the way, let's go over the possibilities. Number 1 is boring; we all know that's not going to be the case because it's boring. No one wants to play in the box where it's all fine and dandy, we're here to fight. I'm going to ignore number 1 as a possibility, I've only included it because the list would be incomplete without it. Numbers 2 and 3 are then the only real possibilites. It's a little bit hard to say which will be the case seeing as we know so little about Genesis so far, but I'm going to lean towards number 3. Why? I'm glad you asked! I've explained this before, but for anyone who hasn't heard me say this: Rockwell, as we know, became one with Aberration. It's as though he became an overseer, except he's still a person. The Homo Deus are uploaded consciousnesses, and Rockwell is connected to the Ark which would give him the abilities of a Homo Deus while still having a real physical body instead of just an Avatar like Helena (though he should be able to make an avatar if he so chose to.) Now, Rockwell is also corrupted, which means that if Rockwell is connected to the... "internet," for lack of a better term, then that must mean that corruption can also spread through the internet. Helena tells us on Extinction that there are lots of brain-dead (so to speak) Homo Deus, and what could be easier to corrupt than a something braindead? Basically, there's a pretty massive chance that there's some corrupted Deus which would lead to number 3 being the case. We also know that Helena can't go there, as she said so in the reveal trailer. Deus being corrupted would be a pretty good way to explain why she can't go there. All this said, number 2 is also possible, but it's equally possible to not be correct. Not enough info to go further (maybe, I might figure something out later)

I was finally able to tame a decent Argy and PT last night so tonight the plan is to get some metal smelting and start looking for a place to call home because the raft is getting old.

Finally! I think I am finished with the theri breeding, finally ! Must have spent a better part of a week battling against the RNG and hitting my head against a brick wall, but I got there. Must have hatched a few hundred eggs and even got a good number of mutations none of which I kept. Condensing the stats was easy but implementing my preference of colours added a few more generations of breeding. I'll let the final breeders grow up before taking my lightning wyvern to the countless theris I have accumulated over the breeding project(Theris, theris everywhere !), the wall of red text and the tribe log shall be glorious.

Also, the new corrupted avatar helmet skin looks a lot like the crystal in the picture you mentioned earlier, just pointing that out.

A tad bit late lol We've found them all here if you're interested:
