Hey, this has probably been asked and I have looked online and can’t find anything about it (42 year old gamer losing touch)

Is there any way of getting the raw vault budding crystal in normal play through (no cheats etc) or am I out of luck for it

Cheers in advance

I have a pouch that's sorted to pick up every scavenger loot, ore, and common drop, and I want my main pouch to hold loot and other things I want to hold. Right now, if I pick up an ore or something, it still goes into my main pouch instead of the one that has it in the memory slot. Is there a solution to this?

I remember using an item to void all the blocks the vault was made out of in VH2, I am currently playing VH remastered, how do I do that in this version?

The boxes with heads on them. What are those?

Is there a way to recycle deck cores? i cant seem to put them in the soul harvester or the vault scrapper.

I wanted to make the jewel applicator n it require a "gemstone" but when i go to check theres no JEI for it, no loot table/crafting recipe/smelting anything, is this somethin i gotta gamemode in or am i missing something? Quest item perhaps?

well i figured it out!

As title says, playing the modpack for the 1st time and having an absolutely great time. It changes and agilizes the game so much. I just had a very big "oh this changes everything" moment discovering the combo Elytra + Dash. Easy enchants? Animal pens? My god, I wish I played this earlier. And I know I'm probably just scratching the surface.

All that said, what are some important tips you could give me, without spoiling or hand-holding too much? I realize now how big of a knowledge check the modpack is, and it sure can be overwhelming.

Thanks in advance!

if u place a shulker on an incomplete monolith it eats it gone very cool way to delete a shulker full of loot:)

after lookin thru this sub a min I tried force quit n reload NO save and i seem to have my shulker back tho it didnt reset to the time it was so idk the goiop is secured tho!:))

Has anyone ordered and received the new merch? I ordered an Iskall as well as a stress tee months ago. I see that it’s now marked as having been delivered yet I don’t have the articles.

I’ve been in touch with James from Locked In merch who hasn’t really been much help.

I normally don’t buy merch for this exact reason but wanted to support the return of Stress. I guess I shouldn’t have expected this time to be any different.

Same as the title. I want to get a full living set. And I have enough resources to craft gear. So can I carft living gear?

any vault since reaching level 20 has been broken when i die/fail.

Either i will be put back into the vault where i died but everything is frozen. I can walk around and stuff but the world wont load anymore and i cant take damage or anything. I cant even use cheats.

or i click respawn and nothing happens and i can forever click it and nothing happens.

Both times the only thing i can do is kill the game via task manager and when i reopen the game im back in the vault like 10 seconds before i die.

Anyone got any ideas on what i can do to fix this? I wanna play so bad

Are the frogs that are specific to frog lights present in Vault Hunters? I've spent hours in the swamps trying to find some. Killed every mob I find to encourage spawning. All I'm finding are regular frogs. I'm not seeing anything elsewhere online about whether they've been excluded from VH.

Hi I just started playing Vault Hunters a few days ago and I'm run 7 vaults and I'm looking to get some research done. In those 7 vaults, I've completed 6 with the objective but failed only 1, and I got 45 knowledge essence. I'm running bounties at the same time.

Since each star requires 72 knowledge essence, it means I'm going to have to run 11 vaults to get a single star. So to get storage (2 points) I have to run 22+ vaults? With the enormous amount of stars you need to get the research and open the mods, it seems insane that I'm going to have to run 10-15 vaults for a single star. Am I doing something wrong here or is there a much faster way to get the stars?

I have a colossal chest that I deposit my backpack into and it pulls all the items into my me system, which puts all the items in the system, and the vault gear into a different colossal chest, but it can not differentiate identified vault gear from unidentified gear and i want it to send all unidentified gear to a shulker i can give to my friend who has the legendary expertise. is there a way to do this?

I can't find vault stone even though I've been searching for hours. I was strip mining and I found several veins of chromatic iron, but not a single vault stone. I searched through many caves in the deep slate area, and still nothing. Finally, out of desperation I turned on spectator mode and flew through the deep slate caves for 30 minutes exploring all caves in miles radius and I still haven't seen a single one. My gamma is all the way up so it would be pretty easy to spot. What's the deal?

edit:

I finally found it! The problem was that there appears to be a bug (or a very poorly designed design decision) to make it so that the vault stone does not spawn within several hundred blocks of the spawn point. Same with the chromatic ore to a lesser degree. I finally went hundreds of blocks away and went into a cave and found it in 5 minutes after searching for hours where I spawned.

Two questions - I’m playing this mod for the first time in a couple years.

I’m doing a skyblock, and currently I have the vault altar asking for 1 tulip in any color. Can you find these in the beginner vaults??? I’m level 31 and I’ve ran through the free vaults like 4 times and haven’t found any?? Please help, I have no knowledge points either.

And coal! What’s a good way to automate this?? I have simple villagers for an iron farm but what’s an easy way to farm coal in the early game?? I’m very familiar with some of the late game mods but will cross that road later.

After I hit level 20 on the Vaults, I stopped getting any XP from the vaults. I still get the Crate but no xp. Is there some kind of new condition to clear a vault, cause in the statistics after one it also says that I never went into any room or opened any chest.

As you can see from the image (taken in a raw vault, but the problem persists also in normal vaults), placing a Map Marker doesn't do anything in the minimap. I tried to craft also different markers but it just doesn't work. Yes, I have th e research unlocked, and it worked before updating to the latest release (last time I played was update 19 or 20 I think).

Do you guys have the same problem or has something changed?

So, I was doing a level 54 vault and found the laboratory. I see that I can get The Baguette I pick that and it's an elite stray I get shot once and die. I was just wondering if that's normal?

In dungeons one can find these kind of 'globes' which can cause certain rooms to be shown on the map. I was wondering whether this counts as 'discovering' them for the vault compass.

For example in a recent dungeon I found a glove that showed all challenge rooms on the map. Would these count towards the compass or not?

Hope my question is clear.

EDIT: Vault hunter 3, 1.18.2

Which one is your go to big mods, I'm on my level 50 now and I haven't unlocked any big mods yet because idk which one to pick. Can you give me a suggestion on which one I should unlock?
