Silwercastle 85 Posted December 12, 2017 I have found 3 large caves far under ground but only 3 mutated wolves appeared in one of them after i removed a lot of crystals. 2 huge caves was totally empty. On one part of the island i am currently testing stuff out there is a lot of boars in the same are +/- 15 in another i find wolf after wolf after wolf pack. About 25 in total. Has anybody found this to ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimbuck 746 Posted December 12, 2017 The island i am currently on has me battling non stop with wolves ... in packs of 5 ..... i have 25 wolf pelts.! I cleared out one area, by stalking around the pack with a crossbow and gradually getting rid of the majority at a distance, but as soon as i go to claim the pelts etc... another one suddenly appears out of nowhere requiring some deft sabre work. I then search the area and its clear .. go back to base and unload the pelts etc come back to mine ore nearby and yikes .. there.s another 4 wolves in the area! So far i have tallied 25 wolves 4 pumas and 6 brown bears and i know another 2 bears are lurking as they took off after i hit them from a distance with the crossbow. No land sharks ..yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No land sharks ..yet Am siting with more leather than i have use for so i stopped hunting or killing if it does not attack me. Currently packing a pump action shotgun with 100 rounds in guardian armor so i could just wipe them out , but i can not get it over my heart to kill them for nothing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anybody found this to ? this morning around 6am i was flying around in a desert cave and came across this MASSIVE cave room and it was FULL with mutated wolves prob 200+ so im flying around (i had made the mining lamp as well to see in caves like daylight) getting the crystals for lighting my pathways at night and for directional referance. and boom i hit the spacebar twice i drop prolly 100 feet and die so today my main focus is to gear up with arrows food and repair kits and hunt me some muties. or bring lots of dirt to cover them whitch works well ;P....................wish me luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimbuck 746 Posted December 13, 2017 you can dig up powder kegs..... i found 2 but a warning, don't hit them too hard with your spade .. you could try dropping one of them ..or dynamite into the cave I had one cave that was producing mutes that constantly emerged and harassed my base...and despite continual "mutant slaughter" expeditions they kept respawning.. and attacking, but as the cave opening was near sea level , i dug a canal and flooded it Unfortunately some time later i encountered the 'falling through the earth" bug on another island ..and was terminated ..guess the Ylands cave gods got their revenge ( this was before the countless colors release) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think this is possible in the current release? I foresee ylandium dust running out very soon in my current game because I think I've cleared most, if not all, the mutants in caves and they don't seem to be respawning at all, even in the last few caves where I made sure to leave some alive in case that's how they 'repopulate' (I've read somewhere that you can hunt things to extinction on islands if you don't leave some animals of each species alive).

Yeah, I've reported some of his many, many, many posts. I think its a more productive approach than spamming the forum with new topics complaining about him, as someone else did a few minutes ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Used up 140 shotgun and 60 repeater riffle rounds and then as i shot the last round i though i had only another 3 mutants to contend with. They woke up and suddenly there was another 30 roaming around.... thank goodness for flying potion. Got out of there asap. Strangely there was no ylandium crystals to be seen anywhere.

I really hope I can find one of those seemingly infinite supplies of ylandium dust in my own games. I've found some very large caves with only one or two ylandium crystals (and maybe 50-80 dust from killing muties) and other caves with 50+ ylandium crystals and comparatively few muties, as well as plenty of disappointing caves with just 4-5 muties and no crystals, but so far I have yet to find one of those infinite springs of ylandium dust that you guys are describing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
