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

A comment on the dead Ominent researchers throughout the yard. Ya get what you f*ckin deserve

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

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.

They really need to add resetting points

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 )

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 find it rude but also hilarious that you call us ratbags

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

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

i don't understand what's happening here

So once again they're going to just blame somebody else instead of just admitting they're horrible monsters who nobody should vote for

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.

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

Coup de Gras is buggy. I didn't get the second stage 😕

The slime mold torches even before used up don't seem to work and the way point did but not since I restarted. I just restarted because I thought it'd be better to start working on a house before heading out and being surrounded by spiders. Any advice on the torches or waypoint?

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

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.

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

sup

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

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

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

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.

I feel like pets would get killed constantly unless you can tell them to hold position.

"wevel free"

Level three? Righto.

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

whats obvious about not eating candy lol

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

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

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

(For New Players.) This video contains spoilers.

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

I was wondering why there was so many burr weeds after I turned the haze off🤣

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.

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

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

The lack of spoiler warnings in this video broke my heart

So you can actually go to the plant pot on the shed deck and pick up burrs there, no tool needed, and you can leave the haze alone.

Still waiting for the ant queen to be added as a boss or mini boss

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...

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.

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

Good stuff, thanks

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.

I have asked in multiple places but haven't gotten an answer yet But did they change the way you unlock the mint mallet? I scanned mint pieces but didn't get the recipe.
