So I want to move with all my current stuff into a permanent manibus server. I already pre registered last week and today I got the option to go to the new scenario. My question is do I have to wait till it manually sends me there to keep my stuff or can I join it now? Thanks for the help.

Isles of Abyss is right around the corner so why not add a SPOOKY corner in your next territory considering Halloween is also near! This is such an easy tower to build... and you can personalize it as you see fit- the messier the better - both for the exterior building and for the interior!

Wish they were a little bigger. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

this looks flat and plain

Wtf was in the middle of trying to buy from a vending machine 😭

I also can’t find out how to join a different server without making a new character and I’ve already gotten into the game a decent bit and don’t want to reset.

After gwt8ng stuck on retrieving character data screen, I've loaded back in!!!

Just a little help in choosing which zapamander to main.

I was able to get a 5/5 zapamander (5 skill level and 5 activity level), but it has these traits

5/5- worn out, vegetative calm, eureka moment

I also have a 4/3 zapamander with better traits but its activity level is subpar in comparison..

4/3- cheer up 2, vegetative calm

Any advice on which to run?

Asia server, Manibus Medium.

My current Manibus server is about to convert into a permanent one, but I would like to know if it is at all possible to move my character to the new map, keeping my level 50, deviants, my blueprints, etc?

Eu comprei este item decorativo com moedas de desafio, mas eu não encontro ele por nada, deixei algumas capturas de tela onde normalmente esse item/plano deveria estar, se alguém tiver alguma ideia para me ajudar a encontrar....

I've been searching, but there's so many Isle of Abyss messages I dunno if I missed it.

Anybody who tested the new scenario, thoughts on xferring a deviation in at the start or not needed? I usually like bringing in a drill, saw and deviant (something like Dr. Teddy or Zapamander) to give me a boost at the start of a scenario.

Also, while I'm here, usefulness of defensive territory deviants on the ship?

Thanks!

I'm new to the game, did alot of research for a few things. I picked Beast Master and now have regrets. you seem to have something against having more than 1 character per server(which I get) and loosing the the base me and my friends helped me build, and my minions I've gotten so far sucks!
I got level 50 in just a few days. It would be nice if we could changes classes at level 50, then level back to 50. Or something like that. The need for that would only need to be on perma servers as I see it. I'd love to change to Gardener! but all my friends are on the same server, and doing the work arounds seem to be a ban able offence. So this is a nice alternative!

I was just trying to do the journey quest and take a photo. I put a filter on it and it’s estimating 10 minutes to complete, but it’s been saying that for 10 minutes 🤔

Worse yet I can’t exit this screen to keep playing so I’m about to alt+f4 this shiii 😬

Any advice will help and or if you can help me with fusing and i can get you the deviants you need.

thank you in advance.

I’m still kind of new to the game and trying Way of Winter out, but I’m confused about the thermal tower upgrades. Specifically the ones that grant nearby buffs, it doesn’t really make sense for them to only work at the base, but I don’t see any way to tell the range of it. Is it map wide or do I need to move my base around to get the buffs in different places? I’m really confused. Any help is really appreciated!!

We need some options to customize the UI layout and HUD options :/

Hey Metas,

With the official Isles of Abyss developer blog finally going public, we now have confirmation that the early game progression loop is completely changing when the scenario drops on the 21st!

To help everyone prepare before the server gates open, I’ve consolidated all the public mechanics, official trailers, and dev blog data into a complete strategic blueprint. Since all of this info is sourced directly from Starry Studio's public announcements, this breakdown is 100% NDA-compliant and safe to discuss.

If you want the full 15-minute chronological visual breakdown, the exact layout graphics, and the extreme temperature survival guides, check out the video guide here: https://youtu.be/KJvFq__cWp8

Otherwise, if you just want a quick reference list to copy down to skip the trial-and-error and speedrun your way straight to Tier 3 on day one, here is the exact roadmap you need to follow:

⚓ 1. THE MOBILE WATER TERRITORY

Your starter boat isn't just a vehicle—it's a buildable territory you can teleport straight back to. It requires steering and propulsion to move. Note that every propulsion device you add stacks and increases your max speed. Aim for a steering wheel, a fuel propeller, and a sail early. If it gets blasted by Voyagers, hitting 'H' repairs everything instantly, including your chests.

🧬 2. THE MEMETIC & TECH REWORK

Random specializations every 5 levels are GONE. You now earn Memetic points by using the new recycling tools to salvage intact territory structures and items directly inside Points of Interest (POIs). Absolutely everything you loot has value now. Unlocking memetics increases your overall Tech Level, automatically expanding your territory size and generator slots.

🧪 3. FISH TO ACID & INFINITE MIXED FUEL

Fishing is mandatory on Day 1. A low-level sequential line of quest lessons at the first settlement fisherman teaches you how to convert fish directly into Acid. Furthermore, you can unlock "Fish Transformation" under the production tab to smelt regular fish in your furnace for automated Mixed Fuel. Get Trawl Nets onto your vessel immediately to passive-farm these resources while you sail.

🚢 4. VOYAGER BLUE TICK SHORTCUT

When hunting the stardust-corrupted Voyager ghost ships, do not just blast them down. Lower their health precisely to the little blue tick mark on their health bar, board the ship, loot the internal chests first, and THEN finish it off for maximum bonus rewards.

⛈️ 5. CALAMITY WEATHER COUNTERMEASURES

Each high-level Haywire Zone brings extreme environmental rules. Here is how you combat them:

• Mist of Deceit (Blinded vision) ➔ Unlock the Blaze Core Lantern.

• Sanity Drain ➔ Equip the Black Tide Protective Mask.

• Time Rain (Fast crop growth but rapid hunger/thirst drain) ➔ Wear the Time Reverse Raincoat (immunity applies as long as you are moving).

• Volcanic Skyfire ➔ Use the toughest ship hull materials available to dodge and absorb golden meteorites.

📊 6. THE PAUSE MENU HACK

If you don't want to craft everything yourself, use the brand-new Global Market system. You can access an instant buy/sell trading interface directly from a sub-menu on your main pause screen to purchase end-game consumables—like All Weather Stew—straight from other players.

The core scenario loop is simple: Regional Story ➔ Defeat Voyagers ➔ Craft Gear ➔ Smash Calamity Towers ➔ Advance Biomes.

Let me know what compact ship sizes you guys are prototyping in Eternaland before the drop. Keep it beastmode

A question for all of the gardeners out there.

I know you can graft some plants with other plants, such as aloe and yellow lotus for the yellow aloe, but can you craft these combined plants with a morphic crate like you can do with the standard plants?

Hi! I am currently playing in the Endless Dream scenario! Will Isles of Abyss merge into this one too? Or do I have to get my current character from ED and emigrate to IoA? I would love to partake from IoA, but there's so much still to do in ED and frankly I am having a blast so far :D

These are my stats with black stone tier 5 for 4/5 pieces, used crocodile hide for the top and bottom. All weather stew, coldium and heatium. Snow trekking gear. What am I supposed to be using for the tier 3 and up extreme weather? I can’t get my numbers higher than 60s and it’s been super annoying to keep dying when I’m trying to explore. This is a permanent scenario and I’m new to the whole scenario thing so not sure what that means lol

Solo Lea,not filmed how it goes because I been not able to do it before😀 Got achievment and I'm sure in few days I'll do 100% solo...

Been a ark ascended player. Downloaded once human and I'm enjoying it though I'm level 6.

Wanted to know how the lifespan of this game is because I don't wanna spend money on it and dies after one year. I'm playing on a server called manibus 12 pve
