GROUNDED 50 + Tips - Things I Wish I Knew Sooner For Early To End Game! Full Release! 

Bonus tip: if you can’t scan a creature before killing it then fear not! Before looting the body you can still scan it.

BIGGEST TIP IVE EVER FIGURED OUT. At really any stage of the game, use the triangle scaffolding and rotate it once each layer and you can make a very easy and super efficient way of getting up, it’s a bit annoying at first becuase it’s parkour but with only 5 you can almost get to the sandbox and all it costs is 5 weed stems, 1 each

Blocking resets your attack animation, which allows you to do combos faster than usual and it also works for harvesting resources. For example, you can cancel the shovel animation by blocking as soon as it hits some clay to break it quicker.

6:57 seeing the inside of max's head will make me have night mares for the rest of my life

A tip for your newfound love of spear throwing: carry more than one, your hero will auto-equip another. The catch is they have to be the same level, or the game doesn't recognize them as the exact same.

I ain't gonna lie, I play a lot of games, and I swear I have one RU-vidr per game. There are certain people who normally put the time into a game and it shows through their videos. And you're my grounded guy! Keep it up, I'm glad to have seen how your grounded content has grown since the release of the beta

Friendly suggestion, for this kind of video time stamps would be very helpful and much appreciated. Makes it easier to share with people and refer back to later on when returning to the video for specific tips.

Thought I'd help correct something. Parry master doesnt affect your parry window. It refunds stamina on parry. The koi armor does however extend the timing window, so you're right there. The wizard hat has a similar ability. The compliance badge is a really strong offensive badge for parrying that replenishes your health on parry also. Very highly recommend.

The best tip I could suggest for anyone building with weed stems or grass, instead of just changing gear to increase hauling strength, build a stem pallet and grass pallet and just relocate them as you need where you're gonna be building and alternate between where you're harvesting, so then you're carrying around 24 each beyond what you're carrying so with no hauling gear you can carry around 29 rather than 5 add red ant armor and/or the intern badge and smoothies. I keep a couple pallets of each at my base center and then one at each of the various camps at the perimeters of my base, it's made harvesting and building a lot more user-friendly

Great video! Here's a good tip for scarab hunting I wish I knew sooner. If you've got two people, you can have one sit on the resource scanner giving constant map updates of their locations while the other person actively hunts them. Works for every critter, but most useful when it comes to scarabs. That extra information goes a long way in making sure you have a successful hunt.

My biggest tip for new players is to try and save everything. That sounds like common sense in most survival games but I feel like people don’t really follow it, so when I say save your resources, you should.Grounded makes you grind a lot and you can skip a lot of the grinding by trying to save all your items with very few exceptions like spoiled but even those can be vital in certain situations, so please don’t learn the hard way like me and save your resources.

SUPER USEFUL TIP: Especially for newer players and people who aren't familiar enough with bug attack patterns to fight them easily. Build on top of stuff. While you can't build on top of the machine, you can build on top of the baseball, the first main landmark you come across. You can get to the top by climbing the stick. You can build a full base or just place a roasting spit, workbench, and lean-to. No land-based bugs can reach you, raid or not. Flying bugs can, but it is unlikely that you would trigger a flying bug raid that early into the game. The baseball is my first go-to base since it's close to a field station and VERY safe. It's kinda far from Burgle, but building on the ground near the oak tree is just asking for wolf spiders to walk into your living room. Everywhere else has some sort of main threat, so getting familiar with the game in a safe base makes sense. The only hostile bugs to think about are mites you could run into or an infrequent roaming wolf spider at night. If you anger an ant or a ladybug, you could have to fight them as well. Regarding bugs not coming out at night: Orb Weavers sleep at night but are more active during the day. Wolf Spiders are more active at night and sleep during the day. Going near a Wolf Spider den during the day will work out if you don't get too close to wake them up. Going near a wolf spider den at night = instant fighting and scares, since wolf spiders patrol at night. I don't know if that changes with difficulty, though.

I appreciate RU-vidrs who fully tell the truth. And don't care what others think because that's the power of honesty. And also making content about games, to educate us to make sure we have an amazing game experience, that is ultimately more then words can describe. You are just awesome and all RU-vidrs like you thank you so much for all you do.

If you hang around the ant mounds, eventually they'll gang up on ladybugs and stuff. while they fight it out you can collect the free bug parts as they fly.

Here's my two cents - you can use a jerky rack to process hides into leather instead of a workbench. It takes a while, but you get a 1:1 ratio of hide into leather for Berry Chunks and Grub Hides instead of 2:1 and 5:1 respectively.

Great video Jade, my and my son have been playing this and quite a few tips we were not aware of, thanks!

I really like how grounded doesn't really tell you much. I always find it difficult to remember certain things in games when it's told to me, but whenever I figure something out on my own, I find it easier to remember it. It also makes it a lot more rewarding when you discover something new and it's super nice not always having a voice talking to you saying something like "Hey go into that cave there's important stuff in there!" I just feel like Obsidian did a great job with telling us everything we need to know and leaving most of the game's mechanics up to the player to discover

Glad to have gotten here so early!! Good job on the content Jade, can’t wait to see more!

You're a mensch for making all these guides and tips videos. Thank you!

That's a great list of tips! I already knew quite a lot of them, but I did learn a thing or 2. Plus I'm sure there are plenty of people out there that didn't already know lots of these, and they really do make the game easier!

This is the best grounded RU-vidr

Here’s a nice tip: if you are losing durability on strong weapons or armor that are expensive to repair, you can upgrade them and fully repair them.

For trinkets I recommend the one by the outlet near the hedge if you’re good at blocking, and the one in the bbq spill for assistant manager as you won’t be blocking as much (or if you can’t time blocks well). One worth getting early mid game is the intern badge hidden on the upper yard wall by the juice box. It saves so much time while building, even if you aren’t strong enough for the bugs up there, I recommend just rushing past them to get it

Keep up the great work Jade love and watch all your videos. Except a few spoilers lol just made it to tier three

Wow, I'm well over a hundred hours into the game (day 150 or so, I think) and there are a bunch of things in this video I didn't know. Thanks!

Fantastic video! I’m about halfway through the game at this point and a lot of these tips were extremely helpful! If I could recommend, maybe a “Progression Guide” video! Haven’t seen a detailed guide on that yet and I’ve been searching!

another banger vid man!

Don't upgrade anything useless, quartzite and marble is limited asf (tip I learned that really helped me)

Using the teir II hammer and some patience you can turn the D20 by a section section until you get the 20 right side up. I find this more precise than the ant club and fewer attempts tend to be needed. Note you will need the third swing with the hammer to move it.

Good stuff, thanks

You can also eat some spicy candy to get the spicy safely mutation which protects from slashing and stabbing I believe

If you eat a spicy cha-cha you unlock another mutation called spicy safe if I remember correctly. It helps with smashing and stabbing damage

Been playing since day 1 and I still learned something good video ❤️

If you have problem with parry timing, time it using rhythm and click with the rhythm. 1 2 block etc.

There is a trinket you can craft using the Left and Right Elf Charms. Sarah's Charm combines the effects of both and its really good.

Not gonna lie, I was kinda struggling with end game content under shed n what not, till I saw video about sleek lady bug armor giving more healing, paired with tick mack, and well fed meals to add health regen + bandage, I am damn near indestructible now lol...

Thanks 👍🏾

You should do an updated 50 tips video for fully yolked. Some of the tips mentioned are obsolete. The mints do actully respawn in the candy box's.

Nice vid jade! 👍

I played grounded when it was in early beta and didnt play it much after once i got back on the game it was weird yet fun the change that confused me the most was definitely the mint mace i had no idea how to get it again

keep them coming

Pro tip no one talks about. U can carry a storage container with u everywhere u go for extra storage.

Tip: in endgame if you need some quesadillans go to the bbq, sandbox and the little ravines infront of the termite den area.. the buried treasure chest have a decent chance after doing all 3 areas to give 1 quesadillas for free. ( fun fact: 1 chest can hold 2 meals not just 1 meal max those include, a quesadilla and a omelant. :D )

I think they should add what damage type the creatures do to the creature cards. I.e smashing . Stabbing etc would help with knowing which of the mutations to use from eating the candy. Keep up the great vids .great to se me ya getting the surge in exposure 👍

One flaw in goading the bugs to fight each other, you don't get kill credit, and thus no progress toward kill quests or mutations.

I actually got the "Shocking Dismissal" from my friend when he was using the pinch wacker. The AoE it does did some damage to me and I got the mutation lol

Best multi-use weapon is a Fresh Termite axe. It has weapon and element advantage on mosquitos, bees and bombardier beetles. Also with Chopper it is great against infected. Axe is seriously under-rated.

I forgot about fresh defence. Cheers Jade

Tip for Candy: Save up 10 Mint Shards, 3 Spicy Shards & (as of 1.2) 10 Sour Lumps...you need to eat these to get Phase 3 Fresh Defense, Phase 2 Spicy Safety & Phase 3 Sour Sensation

subscribed the second I heard he left time stamps. We love a king who helps with time stamps

I have a tip: wear the ant armor, become one with the ants, ants won’t attack you and if you’re near an ant hill they will fight certain insects that get near their ant hill. I killed some lady bugs stink bugs and wild spiders with my army of 20 ants

"Slight inventory issue" - Understatement of the year in gaming. I don't know what it is with these gaming developers when it comes to space to store/carry stuff.

I'm a brand new player and I'm so lost on where to go and what to do, this helped slightly but only slightly like ther is so much more to thus game than I though

🎉🎉🎉🎉 good video 😊

Thanks. Chapters would be really nice in videos like this.

Hey there, i know you love the SCAB Background (Intense red/yellow Colour). I just wanted to say as a Nightmode-User who is sensitive for strong Colours, this is hard to watch your Grounded Videos. Maybe some others have the same Problems as i do. I dont want you to change it, if you love it. But just keep it in mind, some ppl have trouble. Sorry to say. Stay Safe, many Greets.

Is the red ant club and arnor worth upgrading or should i wait? Also, i have built onto the lab by the baseball but wouodnt the oak tree be the best area because not only is it a location id be visiting to take super chips back but when i can build ziplines its probably the best id assume.

If you're good at timing. Build levels of just a boardwalk of plank floors with each one getting shorter and at the end put a trampoline. When you jump on all you gotta do it press forward and you have a system of getting good height distance.

Thank you! Can you do a video on tear 2 weapons and ect? I just started to play and I'm struggling. I lost one backpack in a big ant hill and well its forever gone now. I might restart.

I'm not sure about sour wormholes, but there is a mutation for the spicy cha chas, only 2 levels though.

Also, you can still get burrs in the flowerpot across from the Mantis arena before you plug the weedkiller with gum

"Never eat the candies because you'll need them for crafting" Me who has eaten over 100 mint chunks cuz i had too many

at 1:19 there is a item called "Thorn" under the thistle needles, what is that? ive tried searching for it but i just get thistle needles back.

The marble in the black anthill respawns for me all the time

My luck for the broad mother was really high, I got two of its Charms after 9 try’s

at 1:55 it says u can survey thorn? is that.. in the game..?

1 think i wish i knew befor i started was that plants like gras and dandelions dont grow back if you shop down the base/steam, in my opinion that is so bad game design i dont understand why they didnt do like so many other survival builder games where everything grows back as long as there isnt foundation radius blocking them. Sadly i found out about this after i have already destroyed 30-35 ish dandelion spawns

Also eating the same number of spicy ChaChas will give you the mutation Spicy Safety, Similar to Fresh Defense

1:32 what scab is that ur using? I wanna know because i play this game towards bedtime and want my menu to be as red as possible so I can go to sleep easier..

bro i haven’t played grounded since the game preview… all of this info is crazy to me

i really hope they add a buff to inventory space or some sort of upgradeable backpack or as a minimum atleast allow certain materials to be able to stack (food of the same type) and to allow other materials to be able to stack more, there’s to many resources and the inventory system is honestly so bad

I save my granola bars for if I'm out of jerky, cooked meat or meals on my travels. I mostly take grub and weevil jerky. Just whatever you do, do NOT leave roasting spits or jerky racks unattended while they're outside. Ants will come for the food. Thats why i don't leave them alone until i move them indoors. In terms of smoothies if its something that gives an attack buff then I'll use gum.

The biggest tip I have is don't just upgrade weapons and armor without putting serious thought into it. You WILL run out of materials and might not have a way to get any more for a while. It's a real annoying part of the game. I understand not wanting to have these resources respawn, but there's just not enough. Maybe if you play solo, but you really get screwed over when you play multiplayer. It's a serious flaw with the game.

My friends that I play grounded with call me the parry master and the tetanus attacker. This is because I have max level parry master and I use one of the trinkets so that I can heal from every parry. The second title is because I use a rusty spear normally since I prefer using spears. I also like turning babies into grenades...

Please do a video covering the story of the 5 ominent employees and what happened to each of them. Only got round to seeing the notes recently and the story they tell is great!

Nice vid mate 👍

Ironically you do want to eat the candy like mints and that but only until you max out the mutation level

They moved mosquitos and I'm so sad I like my blade. And the also took away the quartzite shards too from the first cave so that sucks

I once farmed salt with my friend and i got the salt trinket back to back

Oh yeah one more thing if you Throw your Hammer at Acorns they will Bust open in one hit

You think they will still update the game and add more bugs and map parts?

Didn't they change Parry Master? It no longer extends the wondow for parrying it refunds stamina on perfect blocks

oh my God that's how you get up to the picnic table I just build the staircase to go all the way up to it I feel stupid now

You can also eat the spicy candy to unlock a mutation. Only the MINT and SPICY give you mutations, nothing else.

Any tips for woah difficulty? Me and my freinds are doing a woah runthrough for pur first game we have killed up to the stinkbug🤣

Best survival youtube channel love all the videos jade. Keep it up mate. Ratbag out 😉

The resource surveyor you can just type What you are looking for if it is not on the list

The Biggest Tip i can think of sharing is.... The chewy one on my pink tipped salty morning weapon that I keep tucked away in my hot pouch I actually lost it in a honey pot temporarily.. So don't whip it out near there. LOL And.. Don't get stung by a Bee like I did.. I learned the hard way that being charged £80 for a jar of Honey by one of the spikey fluffy assed swines is a total rip off price.! Also don't bother with bouyant foundations as these are expensive early game and you can build firm foundations by lowering a wall blueprint into a lily pad and starting the wall build half way down for a firm floating foundation.. TTFN. Have fun. :)

Eat spicy candy as well for other mutation

One of the best tips I can think of is, Use photo mode to scout out ahead. Weather it’s for resources or enemies. This comes in handy when looking for, Feathers Weed stems/ Dandelion tufts Scouting routes up vines Scouting for ideal building locations Helps massively in last lab location This has helped me in almost every situation

5:07 well in recent updates, now you can just duplicate them

I ate the candy for the mutations I got ome for fire candy and mint

I killed all of the black widows and didn't get enough super venom for the new spider blade. Have been waiting for the respawn, I didn't think it would take 14 days to respawn jesus.

Thank you games like this are hard. I am dumb.

Can you do a black widow tutorial

3:10 its after you sleep once.

Can you do a guide on infected wolf spiders? I have no trouble with regular wolf spiders and I can easily parry the infected one but it explodes anyways and kills me in about two hits.

Do all scab locations so I can 100% the game :)

Anyone else unable to get the rolly Polly to hit the ladybirds? The attacks just miss and the Ladybird never agros back on the RP.

Eating spicy candy also gives you a mutation!
