This week's seed: Sharp Objects

Stick 'em with the pointy end.

The Weekly Seed is open to anyone, and we encourage you to share your experiences, stories, and tactics over the course of your run.

The rules are as follows:

The Weekly Seed begins from the date this thread is posted and lasts about seven days.
Make sure you are running the correct version of Cogmind (see thread subject).
Enter the seed and abort your current game to initiate the seed (more details are below).
Verify you are not running the tutorial and that the screenshots below match your game.
Play through the game once. This is a friendly event and we are all honest people.
When finished, post your scoresheet here (it should be the newest file in /scores) and any other screenshots/stories/strategies you wish to share with the community.
If you want to share details about the seed or your approach, make sure you use spoiler tags.
Due to the spoilerific nature of this thread, be sure to avoid reading details about the seed if you haven't completed your run.
As Cogmind now has multiple difficulty modes and challenges which will affect the world generation, by default it is assumed everyone is playing on regular difficulty with no challenges enabled. You are free to use whichever settings you wish, but if you intend on discussing it, be sure to specify what difficulty/challenges you're using!

Good luck and have fun!

Well, this time I didn't forget to input the seed while streaming, though it turned out to be my worst stream run ever xD

Died on -6! The cause was very clearly me not being careful enough in dangerous situations because I felt way too confident having backup from Zion

I did almost make it out of the area that brought me down, in pretty epic fashion, too, but it was a bad location in general and some other nearby patrols finished me off just when I was rebuilding with my 11 core... so close! (of course, then I'd still have to find the exit, heh)

A Behemoth was the centerpiece for my downfall

(I had a chance to melt it but didn't take it...)

This was another unstable evolution run, and I had a little more power than I'd normally want, and somewhat less weaponry, but overall not too bad a distribution for that depth. (Note that unstable evolution does not affect the seed content itself, so it was the same layout.)

And because that run ended a lot more quickly than it normally would, I had more stream time so I decided to do another non-seed run (last 48 minutes of video). For that one I turned off the unstable challenge and played relatively fast, going for maximum weapons--first two evolutions were both weapons so I had 6 slots in Materials

Ended with 8 weapon slots, and died while fooling around in a Factory garrison. There is definitely some really nice gear and potential in garrisons, so I'll need to do that more often (more carefully, of course).

Funny thing is, in that short run there was so much destruction I even out-scored my longer seed run!

Today, I did the double-challenge run for this seed, using Unstable Evolution and Scavenger. Here's what I think of them so far:

The scavenger mode makes it a pretty straight-forward run. Since there's little loot, I just take the stairs asap. My build is also overall weaker since most of my parts are from enemy's loots. (e.g. basic lasers and legs) And even when I find a cool gear, it's already badly damaged, so it has limited use. (Now that I think of it, where are all the repair stations??) Thus, my gears got churned pretty quickly, and I need to constantly look for more replacements.

Unfortunately, that's not the worst part. The worst is the Unstable Evolution!

After 4 evolutions, my slots are 5 power, 4 propulsion, 3 utility, 3 weapon. What??

So what ended up happening is that I have a bunch of utilities but I can't use them all! Can't equip heat sink, armor, storage unit, targeting computer, hackware, all at once.

(With a storage unit, I effectively have 2 utility slots to use!)

And what can I do with 5 power slots? The only thing I can think of is to use them for force field, but I can't find one! So I essentially use the extra power slots as an alternative shield to absorb damage, but it turns out that I lose them pretty quickly (due to their lack of integrity).

That was unfortunate. I didn't last very long with this messy combat build. I visited a Data Miner and after that, things went downward in the following proximity cave. (Oh I hate that place!) I got caught by a Warden, followed by an army of fighters, and just when I thought I can survive, an ARC came by and deployed grunts and imp at me...

Spoiler: Ohhhhh boy (click to show/hide)

Maybe a better run next time!

P.S. I forgot to turn on the Upload Score option for this run. Please add this to the high score, thanks!

Not a bad score with all those bonus points, though! Just think if you'd also gotten further

High power definitely means go for shields, yep (that's always been my plan), but they can be harder to come by. Especially in the early game there aren't very many. I do eventually want to add some new types of shields, actually, and that would enable more strategies that rely on them. Just haven't gotten around to it... (well, we do have the new AOE thermal resist added in A15, which sorta counts, but it's a static energy cost).

It's less likely that unstable evolution will give you lots of power sources, though, so you were somewhat unlucky there. I had a reasonable number in my last two unstable games.

And there are definitely Repair Stations out there, since the modes don't affect that, but they are generally rarer than other machines, and you'll notice this more when you really really want them

P.S. I forgot to turn on the Upload Score option for this run. Please add this to the high score, thanks!

You need to attach your actual scoresheet for me to add it to the server, since the filename is an important part (not just the contents).

Whoops! I've modified my previous post with the scoresheet attachment.

If you get heaps of power sources, definitely go treads and use your power sources as makeshift armour.
