Technically no. By default, they shoot wooden arrows but with 100% damage and perfect accuracy. You can put arrows in their inventory though and they'll use the leftmost arrow, letting them benefit from the arrow's special effect. Arrows used this way are never consumed so they can use it indefinitely.Do NPCs need arrows?
There will be a Cien blog update on Sunday or Monday (Japan time) but not sure whether it will come with an actual update.Hi everyone, when will the next update be released? I thought it was monthly, so it'll be a matter of days?

Best tip for the entire game useinbg "F" makes MC use a hard attack, at start you won't be able to block while useing it and it's slower than a normal attack, but if you level the corresponding skill those things will stop and you can deal incredible damage.This game is literally MAD. Totally weird, doesn't make much sense... and I love it.
I took some time to explore, killed the first boss, converted 2 native girls and have 3 more in cages, defended a few raids, built 3 tribal shacks, a workbench, some other bits and bobs, planted a bunch of trees and...
I still have no idea what I'm doing! This game does look particularly "hard", but there is so much to learn and do that it's a real challenge. And I love it.
If anyone has any particularly good tips for a noob, especially for resource management and base defence, please tell me. Right now I really need charcoal. I believe it's obtained by using the forge (still working to build it).
I read about a strategy of building tables to defend the base as enemies cannot take them down. I already have some wood walls with wood spikes all around but I grossly under sized my base and pretty much need to redo everything. I'm actually pretty decent at fighting enemies (mostly lure them away to try and pick them one by one).
But mostly I'm still very clueless, especially about what I need to focus on next. I guess that for now I need to focus on feeding my NPCs. Once my come out of the cages, it will be 5 already.
But man, I'm getting to like the game.
Am I right to assume that I can play with either character and ignore the other? Because I've been doing it. And haven't found how to move the other character away from the beach yet.
P.S. Is there any particular downside to stun a tribal by (clears throat) "r*pe"? Seems much easier than a club for now... Going from caveman love to creep real fast... lol

How can you tell it will be sunday or monday?There will be a Cien blog update on Sunday or Monday (Japan time) but not sure whether it will come with an actual update.
In any case, Yui (the artist of the artist-programmer duo making this game) has revealed that the next update will center on rescuing the girls hung up on the Native Boss's back.

Tip: find the warewolf and make him pet very fast at attaking the Scout enamy(3 male native) that prevent raid, find all the work brench.This game is literally MAD. Totally weird, doesn't make much sense... and I love it.

Well, every bit of stuff adds to the save/load time, but it's not like you have a massive unused base just sitting there so it should be negligible. A lot of people have many small bases throughout the map with workers harvesting stuff. Also double as fast travel points with food from traps/workers to replenish hunger.Is there any down side to abandoning a base? It doesn't have much anyway, so it's not a huge loss and I know I can move most of it anyway. A bit of a job, but oh well...
Pick up full chest, move cursor to invalid location, open map and fast travel while holding chest. Could need some finagling about with the cursor because the final click to confirm fast travel might place the chest instead.Also, what is the best way to "move" a lot of gear and a few people? I have 4 wood crates full of stuff. I might be able to use my NPCs for that. I have 5 or 6.
Can I just start another base and "move" them there?
I basically picked a not so great spot near the starting beach, so might as well just go before I build more.
Not sure were to go. Only beat the first boss yet.

That was on discord?As posted before:
Someone asked:
Has the Ci-en article been updated yet?
To which the developer answered:
I'll write my plans around next Sunday or Monday
That's what TON (the programmer of the artist-programmer duo making this game) said two days ago when somebody asked when will their Ci-en blog post be updated.That was on discord?
Guess we learning how to glue a leg back on.In any case, Yui (the artist of the artist-programmer duo making this game) has revealed that the next update will center on rescuing the girls hung up on the Native Boss's back.
Where did he answer that though ?That's what TON (the programmer of the artist-programmer duo making this game) said two days ago when somebody asked when will their Ci-en blog post be updated.
ah yes. i meet her there. it just the conversation is like gaslighting me into thinking she been with us the whole times lol.Go across the bridge and find out.
Spikes, floor needles, Bigfoot, and Werewolf for base defense. As far as resource management... aside from assigning natives to do stuff for you (mining, logging, ect), focus on getting the iron axe/pickaxe, and then set aside a couple of hours in which you do nothing but blast your favorite music as you go full ham on gathering up everything in a three mile radius minimum. Mines will respawn their ores every time you leave and re-enter, and you can use the acorns to plant trees right outside your base so you don't have to go far to collect wood. As soon as you're feeling confident, use the map in the guide linked on the first page to head to the dungeon; you can find some good loot in there, including a much better weapon than the basic-bitch iron sword.This game is literally MAD.
