what i think is the best route to take is to befriend the queens start a new game plus then INFECT all the queens since infecting and poisoning both give the ant queen parts plus the chests are only there in new game plus then when you start another new game plus you can do the infected ant queen stuff so yeah poisoning is kinda useless when you can infect them instead
@@nicolasrosocha4352 let me try this again but a lot shorter. befriend ant queens start a new game + infect ant queens new game plus again and then infected ant stuff
@@nicolasrosocha4352 you want to infect it instead of poisoning it because infecting it still gives you the parts you would get if you poisoned it unfortunately it does not work for the fire ant queen because you need new game plus level two
I killed them on my first play through, this second play through I'm going to befriend them but you should befriend on 1st play through...in 2nd play through, there will be new items behind them
Well as far as the video states… full infection isn’t possible until NG2. Reg Game-red infection unlocks NG1- Black infection unlocks NG2- Fire Infection Unlocks. But I was thinking about the same idea, Reg Game- Full friendly NG1-full Poisons, NG2-Full infections NG3- back to friends? Or whatever parts I might need or want lol
OMG thank you so much for this awesome video, I was trying to find the infected black ant infected recipe and other videos unfortunately skipped the crucial step of showing how you got to the room or the path to get there, they showed a second or two of the room, but forgot, most of the rooms look very similar. Not to mention these recipes almost blend in with their environment, NGL I walked past that recipe a number times, I just thought it was a game decoration and nothing more. This video was very helpful, thanks again, cheers.
Does anybody know why I’m stuck at 99% report card? The hint says “collect more yard data” but I have everything that’s required according to the wiki and Reddit, (yes I have the 3 hidden recipes)
MAKE SURE YOU 100% BEFRIEND ALL THE ANT QUEENS ON THE FIRST PLAYTHROUGH IF YOU WANT THE SUPER WIN ACHIEVEMENT, I made the mistake of killing the red ant queen in the first playthrough and now I can’t get all creature cards to get super win so now I HAVE to go into NG+ 1 to 100% the game
Do I have to infect all of the queens in one version of ng+ to get the trinkets or can I do it in different ng+’s. I infected the red ant queen on my first ng+ but I befriended the fire ant and I don’t really want to have to do it all again
Yo Para! For myth busters 1.4: Do ant eggs in your inventory hatch while on zip lines??? Not sure if covered in previous iterations of the series, but I was racing the clock to get black ant eggs back home when I wondered if they do..
Would I be right in saying that I need to do the following to unlock all 3 Tiers? Infect the Red Ant Queen for the Links (do this in my normal world so when I go into NG+1 she is infected) Infect the Black Ant Queen for Bracelets (do this in NG+ 1 so when I go into NG+2 she's infected but the Red Ant Queen is back to normal) Infect the Fire Ant Queen for the Necklace (do this in NG+2 so when I go into NG+3 she's infected and every other Ant Queen will be back to normal)? I'm assuming I would need to do it this way since when I go into NG+1 the Red Ant Queen will be infected and I'll get the Sausager and the Link, so I can't infect her again so it would need to be the Black Ant Queen right? I may have just answered my own dilemma but thought I'd double check :)
The Ant Queens when you befriend them gives you surplus of Pheromone and the baby Ant gold cards, and the mutations that let you go unbothered into their area. So I would do that on your 1st playthrough. Then on NG+ you should infect or poison as you please to get the parts, some people have noted that poisoning them and infecting them do basically the same exact thing but you unlock extra options by getting the areas infected for NG+2
@@benhawes837 Yes!! So on any base Grounded world you can find a secret lab inside of the wall on the far side of the pond from the kids case. Sitting next to that door are FOUR monitors representing the requirement to get the door to open. The Broodmother, The Orchid Mantis, and The Wasp Queen all have to die, and then you have to beat the Javamatic raid too. Once those are done the secret door will open, giving you access to the Remixer. Now comes the NG+ part, whenever you activate the remixer, it’s going to ask if you’re sure you want to go to NG+ and if you click yes you’re shunted into an alternate timeline. With slight variations. These multiple variations are detailed in the patch notes, but for this, let’s just talk about enemies. Every enemy in the game is given a random chance to be YOKED. These yoked enemies have rare drops that can only be found in NG+ and they have special buffs and a glowing color. These buffs vary from monster to monster and are randomly rolled at spawn. Every single bug will always start with 3 baseline abilities that never change. Faster Attack Speed, More Damage, and More Health. The game then checks how many times you’ve activated the remixer! If you have reset your world 1 time, each bug receives ONE additional random buff alongside those initial 3. And for each time you have reset that number goes up by 1. So at NG+3 you have bugs with 6 or 7 perks that are super tough. Are you following?
Very precise, very good pronouciation/announciation for the guide, video guide coupled with precise instructions. THIS is how guides should be done. Thank you very much.
For those upset that you have to be in new game plus for some of this stuff, keep in mind this is not like other games and you keep pretty much everything when you go to new game plus. It is pretty much just harder mode, but scaling with armor upgrades so feels good, NOT a hard reset. Coming from a guy that hates NG+ typically because of losing all of my items and hard work, this is not bad at all!
Would be insane if they brought out a queen bee with the same mechanic as the ant queens but instead of a baby ant you get a grub that eventually turns into a bee that becomes a mount allowing you to fly around the backyard
Oh its a mutation lol i thought it was just a world buff for some reason for befriending the queens lol...how does one level it up? Is it befriending 3 times?
Can you help me with how to get some fresh doughnut chunk as the 🍩 doesn't seem to be re spawning 😩 so I cannot complete the fire ant queen and baby fire ant
And I diddnt realize till I got back to my base I thought It stayed by the queen but when i went back it wasnt there and it still said I already fed the black ant queen
For ever +1 you add the yoked monsters receive an ADDITIONAL perk. They always have 3 by default (damage, speed, health) but the others are randomized buffs that increase as you complete MORE NG+s
I’ve previously 100% the game prior to this update. Only thing I need to do is figure out what to do with ant queens, then remix yard. That being said… would it make more sense for me to infect the red queen, & befriend the other two before remixing? Or another way? Trying to figure out how to maximize my runs considering I’m already at end game on my first run.
How much preparation should I do before NG+? I have most of the pre-1.4 "best" weapons at lv 9 as well as a full fire ant armor set at lv 9. I have a 100% report card now (post 1.4) as well. Am I good to go?
@MarcosMata-fd9er Thanks. Unfortunately I've spent all of my supreme quartzite on weapons already so I'm stuck with farming Black Ox Horns now. Is farming resources much harder to do post NG+ compared to the base game?
I wish I had infected the Red Ant Queen in Standard. Not having the Infected Ant Shield and Fungnir in NG+1 is kind of a bummer. And Antbassador and the Ant pets are basically useless. It was a bad move to befriend all in standard. I didn't save. 😐
Wait, you can't infect all three in your first playthrough? I've been hearing people say you should be infecting all three in your first game to get access to powerful gear earlier in NG+1.
I had my baby black ant with me while i was befriending the red ant queen. Did that, got my baby fire ant, and my two new friends and i ended up falling through the floor, into the void. Lost both of them. Damn.
so i need 3 playthroughs to get 100% because i befriended them all before knowing that there was an infected version which has an own creature card which I need AND if I infect one in new game plus ill have to go another round just to peep the infected version... man I just want this stupid achievement
So are the infected ants still befriended, if you attack them with Antbassador on? Do they still retaliate? It looked like the infected black ants you attacked didn't attack in the video...? (9:04)
Soo Befriend them on a normal story progression on NG1 Kill them (since you cant get the other 2 unstil NG2) and then on NG2 infect them so that in NG3 they are all infected to befriend them. Am i right?
hello . i have question ? Can only be friends with 1 boss Ant Queen in 1 NG+?? or be friends 3 boss Ant in NG+1 and poison 3 boss in NG+2 and infected 3 boss in NG+3 ??
Ok I’m confused I saw other videos said to poison the ant queen 1st run through then befriend them on ng + is there a problem that I poisoned her 1st game run?
Thanks for the data on the research! It's a bit ridiculous they locked the sausager behind so many NG requirements, along with the other new items. I doubt I'll go beyond the first New Game+ since I play alone and not for long durations.
I put my new ant babies in a pet house and went to do other things for like 2 hours just for them to be gone and all my auto saves deleted the last one i had with them
I found the poison recipes on my first playthrough, I'm not sure why you said ng+ but great guide. Though I did finish the game by growing big; I NEVER USED THE REMIX-R thing that was added 1.4
If you choose to poison or infect them (killing them) then they remain dead for the rest of the game until you start a next new game +, and then they all will respawn and start fresh
Great job as usual but i have a question...if you befriend all the queens then infect them in the next play thru will tha ambassador mutation work with the now hostile ants...
Will there be a video explaining where all the new milk molars are? In new game plus all of them have been put in different areas. (From what I’ve seen so far.)
