A flexible first scientist with useful learning, carrying and climate traits; choose equipment around the next expedition.
A small, reliable kit and repeated return trips matter more than maintaining a specialized damage combination.
Reconsider if: No job-specific starting skill or XP advantage.; Broad progression is slower than specializing every action.; Needs both ranged and melee practice..
A practical rhythm, from preparation to payoff.
Leave with one objective and room for its materials. Learn the return path before filling your bag with decoration.
Back at the refuge, repair the tools you actually use and reserve the next progression recipe's parts before spending on optional projects.
You prepare the fight near a known retreat route, bring repair materials and a fallback weapon, and return with the CPU before taking a second risk. The first objective is the hacker's next component. You can develop a specialized combat style after your base reliably supports another trip.
Read in order. Each stage explains what makes the next step practical.
Place a powered Crafting Bench, bed and water container. Use a Desk Leg for fighting and a Shiv or Kitchen Knife for harvesting; fry the meat you collect. Equipment at this stage: Desk Leg; Shiv or Kitchen Knife; Frying Pan; Bed. Repair the route and supplies you already have; this checkpoint does not require a finished specialist loadout.
Discover the Makeshift Spear from a Standing Lamp; add Makeshift Crossbow and Plastic Shield. Collect the Office anvil for a Repair and Salvage Station; recharge before the robot/hacker work. At Crafting 2, inspect the first bench upgrades. At Cooking 3, add known soups. Equipment at this stage: Makeshift Spear replaces Shiv as primary weapon; Makeshift Crossbow; Plastic Shield; Repair and Salvage Station. Keep the sharp harvesting tool and repair material. One basic battery alone falls short of a default full night for one appliance.
Replace the weakest Office weapon with a crafted Manufacturing option: Thermal Mallet for melee or Grinder for ranged fighting. Practice cover, brief attacks and retreating to repair; keep a weapon of the other type. Inspect the Blacksmith's solder pot if Cooking remains below 3. Equipment at this stage: Thermal Mallet or Grinder; Repaired Makeshift armor; Forge armor only when its materials are ready; Repair reserves. Heavy weapons handle poorly below Strength 8; do not replace a comfortable one-handed weapon solely because a heavy tool has higher listed damage.
Keep the repaired combat kit while learning the new area. After discovering Refined Carbon, replace repeated water-boiling trips with a Water Filter. Unlock the chemistry benches if you want prepared consumables; follow discovered mixtures. Equipment at this stage: Water Filter; Current Manufacturing weapon; Distillation Bench and Chemistry Bench (optional). A character reset here sets every skill to 3. It is a rebuild decision, not a routine upgrade.
After the Mycofields material run, replace the old armor with Carapace if following the lighter armor route. With Security materials, add Magbow for deliberate ranged shots; keep a close-range weapon. Keep lighting charged and practice firing from cover before committing to a reload. Equipment at this stage: Carapace armor replaces earlier armor; Magbow replaces basic crossbow; Charged light. A scoped weapon's reload creates an opening; a shield must be holstered when you need its alternate aiming action.
Turn Carapace pieces into Scarab after collecting Murkweed and electrical components. Keep the Magbow and a close-range fallback; replenish ammunition before another wing. Use the Moisture Teleporter when unlocked to shorten water-supply trips. Equipment at this stage: Scarab replaces Carapace; Magbow; Moisture Teleporter. The Scarab recipe consumes the preceding armor pieces. Bring enough supplies to return without relying on new loot.
Upgrade Magbow into Hypercross when its recipe and materials are available. Retain Scarab until its next actual upgrade materials appear. If using heavy armor, Strength 13 now removes the heaviest armor-class penalty. Equipment at this stage: Hypercross Magbow replaces Magbow; Repaired Scarab or established heavy armor; Second damage type. Strength 13 is a handling perk, not a requirement to abandon a lighter set. Do not buy a new combat style with your last repair stock.
Use Residence's Frozen Essence, Yeti Fur and tactical materials to upgrade Scarab to Anteplate. Check cold protection, ammunition and medical reserves before the next excursion. Keep the weapon family you have practiced; add optional upgrades during cleanup. Equipment at this stage: Anteplate replaces Scarab; Hypercross Magbow or established melee choice; Destination-appropriate supplies. Anteplate belongs here because its new materials come from Residence; it is not an earlier Hydroplant craft.

The supporting roles that make this style work.
Keep replacement equipment and quest ingredients together.
Recover and handle threats that make a close approach unsafe.
Adds company and a specialist role when the relevant taming and care systems unlock; it does not replace your escape plan.
Can you change your mind? Equipment and skill practice can change without a new character. A later IS-0017 respecialization changes job and traits but resets learned skills to level 3 and does not grant a replacement starting kit; read that local warning before committing.
Source-based recommendations rather than a measured universal best build. No full-run combat benchmark is claimed.
Version context: PC Steam 1.4.0.28206; current skill gates and released update content reviewed 2026-10-10. Old early-access jetpack, immutable-job and pre-1.4 perk advice is not used.
Six useful goals supported by documented mechanics. They are adaptable playstyles, not locked classes, guaranteed optimal damage rankings or a promise to trivialize Apocalyptic.
Extra guidance adds smaller actions and local checks where available. Compact reduces spacing and cover size; it keeps the full instructions, warnings and choices. Quiet backgrounds reduce decoration. These options change the guide, not the game’s difficulty.
Dotted item names have quick details. Hover with a mouse, tap, or focus the name and press Enter. Stats stay in a small pop-up.
Jumping changes your bookmark; it never marks earlier steps complete. Build and outcome choices stay in your current playthrough.
Search instructions, selected-build advice, choices and achievements. Outcome details stay collapsed.

These notes support your chosen role and next expedition. They do not read or modify your game save.
Keeps the refuge functional and suppresses ordinary local spawns while powered. Assaults still need a response.
Keep the first refuge small and repair the bench before expanding.
Keep critical devices running when facility outlets turn off. Extra appliances change the load.
Split loads or add suitable capacity; observe a full night before relying on the setup.
The component chain opens the next Office route.
Return to the robot CPU/material steps instead of trying a later-tier locked door.
Maintains your practiced weapons and preserves the resources already spent on equipment.
Bring a usable backup and repair materials; reserve progression ingredients before salvaging.
Gives the expedition a clear return destination once its recipe is available.
Unlock the tram/shortcut and walk the cleared route home; do not rely on a teleporter you have not bound.
Cold, heat, radiation and underwater routes need different preparation.
Use the local hazard checklist before crossing; step back and equip the appropriate protection.
Use these checks before moving to harder content or expanding. They are manual observations, separate from platform achievements.
Return with a replacement weapon, food and the protection for that area. Recover the route before trying to recover every dropped item. In Hardcore, death follows different rules; this is not a promise of revival.
Change your guide role and equipment first. A later job/trait reset has a real skill cost; read the local IS-0017 warning before using it.

Skills improve through use. Jobs and traits shape the opening; these guide roles do not create locked character classes.
Story consequences and optional evidence start collapsed.
Check confirmed platform unlocks. Untick a target to defer it. Finishing a walkthrough step never checks an achievement automatically.
Finish the tutorial. Skipping the tutorial bypasses this trigger; complete it on a new world if needed.
Make an item at a .
Defeat a Pest.
Finish Office progression.
Grow a crop to maturity.
Operate a successfully. Perform a hack yourself; a teammate opening the route can bypass your trigger.
Finish Manufacturing West.
Wear four matching armor pieces. Use a functional armor set; a cosmetic uniform is a different unlock.
Lose continence outside a toilet.
Fill seven equipment slots simultaneously. The wiki documents seven original equipment slots despite the displayed all-slots wording. Added watch/companion slots were not independently tested.
Defeat 50 Order combatants. Verify the unlock on each account; exact shared-credit rules have not been established.
Finish Cascade Labs.
Collect the Manufacturing worker outfit. Interact with the uniformed corpse in Upper Shipping; use the lift near the Garage. Crafting Forge armor does not satisfy this cosmetic unlock.
Wear a Mushroom Helmet. For a conservative route, finish Mycofields and wear the crafted helmet. Xbox firsthand evidence reports helmet alone; the extra exit prerequisite remains disputed.
Wear Rat Suit and Rat Pack together. Rat Suit is a 7.5% corpse-harvest drop. Net-stun plus a blunt killing blow guarantees the Pack; elemental killing damage can spoil that condition.
Reach Far Garden's exit portal. An Office railing shortcut can bypass the proximity trigger.
Finish Security Sector. The name does not refer to merely surviving an ordinary night.
Land any fish.
Enter the final Nightsphere room. Shooting from outside then teleporting away can bypass the room trigger.
Take Flathill's final Power Cell. Taking only the minimum progression cell can leave this unearned.
Use The Train's final exit. Take the end portal personally rather than an entrance portal or .
Use Mycofields' final exit. Take the end portal personally rather than teleporting home.

Use Voussoir's final exit. Take the end portal personally.
Use Rise Facility's final exit.
Touch World in the Mirror grass. Entering a portal alone is not the documented trigger.
Reactivate Hydroplant spillways.
Inspect the ruined tutorial's Pest Dummy. Reach it through the Mines portal. Current patch notes tie its crafting discovery to examining the crushed dummy.
Leave the Pool Room. The displayed description mentions a red chair; the wiki records the exit trigger.
Enter Some Distant Shore.
Leave Royal Range.
Land a rare fish variant. Use the appropriate bait or special bait-equivalent gear. A fishing hotspot alone does not guarantee rarity.
Defeat Canaan's Priest, Niketas.
Activate the Encroachment Core.
Use Village Den da'ko Yeer's red exit. The portal appears after obtaining Anti-Fungal Gelatin; use it instead of a shortcut home.
Finish Reactors.
Restart Dusk Reactor. This particular reactor trigger is distinct from completing the entire sector.
Finish Shadowgate.
Open a GATE Security Crate.
Open an Ornate Crate.
Open a Runic Crate.
Open a Cacophonous Crate.
Defeat a Symphonist.
Upload Kylie; travel to Albatross. Rescue her using Hyper-Dense Neural Chip in Hydroplant Robotics. Upload her trinket or shield-generator form into the Modified Defense Bot in future Botanical labs. Plan before finale; an Xbox report supports post-finale Albatross revisit, so permanent missability is unproven.
Defeat a Jotun.
Defeat 100 Gatekeepers. This is not a single boss kill. Cross-save accumulation and tag/last-hit rules are not verified; do not assume a team's total is each account's total.
Finish the Praetorium.
Reach the story ending.
Give Coworker a Mug of Coffee.
Finish Botanical Gardens.
Contain Leyak in Containment Unit: 91.
Finish Residence Sector. Check Steam during the final Residence-to-Albatross transition; the exact award boundary has not been independently verified.

Now: Completes the assistance interaction. Later: Enables his later traveling-trader appearances. Rewards: Access to a recurring service; stock should be checked at the visit. Can you change your mind? Giving the bandage consumes that item; this is not a mutually exclusive story ending.
Now: You retain the bandage and can continue your supply route. Later: You have not enabled that service through this interaction. Rewards: No compensating reward was established. Can you change your mind? No current hard deadline or inevitable death timer was established; revisit instead of assuming permanent failure.
Now: Complete the town route and bring home additional Power Cells. Later: Advances the Flathill containment story and the progression associated with fog/Symphonist encounters; exact encounter gate is disputed. Rewards: Additional cells, town research and collectible opportunities. Can you change your mind? The campaign has no verified undo for this story progression. This is not documented as an alternate ending.
Now: Meets the forklift's one-cell requirement sooner. Later: Leaves the rest of the town available as a return trip. Delaying all three does not establish permanent protection from later fog, because sources disagree about the trigger. Rewards: Earlier Manufacturing access; remaining town rewards deferred. Can you change your mind? You can revisit Flathill. Resettable loot also provides recovery from ordinary resource loss.
Now: Changes the role and resets skills to level 3. Later: You must rebuild skill progression from the reset values. Rewards: Different starting-role advantages; no new starting gear is promised. Can you change your mind? Do not assume the interaction restores your former trained levels if used again.
Now: Preserves your present role and skills. Later: Main-story access continues without this optional respec. Rewards: Retains accumulated skill investment. Can you change your mind? The optional interaction may be revisited; no story gate requires it here.
Now: Finds all floors and likely button routes before the escalation begins. Later: Makes the five-button sequence more predictable. Rewards: Safer access to optional presents and equipment. Can you change your mind? You can then start the same puzzle.
Now: Starts and increases zombie pressure during exploration. Later: Searching the remaining floors happens under greater pressure. Rewards: No distinct bonus for starting earlier was established. Can you change your mind? Leaving and reentering resets and relocates the puzzle; it does not retain partial button progress.
Now: Advances the route into Security. Later: Rise remains an optional return after gathering more Gel. Rewards: Main-story access. Can you change your mind? Another charge can open the other route; there is no demonstrated exclusive reward.
Now: Allows the reflector puzzle and optional Rise portal. Later: You must acquire another ten Gel for the main door if you have no reserve. Rewards: Optional supplies, research and exploration. Can you change your mind? Resource gathering resolves the delay; this is not a permanent campaign failure.
Now: Transfers you into the Pool Room. Later: You must find its exit route and orient yourself at the Labs return. Rewards: Optional exploration and the exit-related achievement opportunity. Can you change your mind? Return is through the portal world's exit mechanism; sitting is not a reversible furniture pose.
Now: Avoids an unplanned excursion. Later: You can return equipped for the invisible threat and variable button search. Rewards: No reward is forfeited merely by preparing first. Can you change your mind? No current timed lockout was established.
Earn A Lode Off My Mind and collect his drops. The fight is optional for repairing the belfry portal; prepare your equipment and a retreat rather than treating it as a required first-visit duel.
Continue the campaign without this achievement or the fight’s loot yet. No alternate main ending or alliance was established. Revisit the world when better prepared; the exact NPC reset interval is not guaranteed here.
Keep its skill-XP benefit and companionship. The upload and Electric Dreams route remain unfinished. This is a deferral of the body quest, not a different main ending.
Trade the trinket’s XP benefit for its protection. This form can still be uploaded later, so the shield does not by itself lock out the body quest.
In the future Botanical workshop, the upload consumes her trinket or shield form. She later helps at Albatross; reaching Albatross after the transfer is the Electric Dreams route. No verified reverse transfer or replacement copy is promised. Finish before the finale for the researched PC route; post-finale recovery is only corroborated by an Xbox report.

Compare play styles or choose a different plan.
Suggested starting plan: Solo Generalist. Choose Summer Intern. 12 trait points before custom bonuses; this package spends 11 and leaves 1. Wrinkly Brainmeat (4): 20% more skill XP. Weathered (3): +1 heat and +1 cold resistance. Buff Brainiac (4): 15% higher carry limit; +1 Strength. No negative trait is required. For hotbar comfort, Fanny Pack (10) plus Hobbyist Chef (2) uses all 12 instead.
Where to look: Begin at arrival: speak to Tracy in the shack, equip the supplied hard hat and use the elevator. Follow the displayed training objective from there.
What to do: Signal Bruce, follow the vent route and take the supplied wrench. Complete the net and bandage demonstrations in order; at the heater lesson, redeploy it beside a socket and connect power.
What should happen: Each training objective clears in sequence and the powered-heater lesson allows you to continue toward the Residence elevator.
If it does not work: If a lesson stalls, check the current objective’s required item or interaction before advancing. In the heater phase, inspect the cable and power state; simply placing the heater does not finish the demonstration.
A Labs interaction can change your job, but it also resets skills to level 3. Treat that as a consequential respec, not free starting equipment. We flag the interaction before you encounter it.
Ordinary skills grow through use. Jobs alter starting bonuses, XP and trait budgets; they do not permanently assign a combat class. Pick the role you want to practice, then change equipment as discoveries expand. Traits and item skill requirements can impose real restrictions.
Positive traits spend points; negatives return points. The suggested packages use the standard point budget and require no negative traits. Unused points are allowed. A forced job trait supplies no extra points. Use the traits offered in your character-creation menu; acquired traits are not starting options.
Choose a role only if you want tailored equipment advice. Mark existing Steam achievements in the campaign tools to hide completed targets. Numbered task checks record your route; they never award an achievement or change the game. Story decisions and optional explanations start closed. You can leave settings blank.

Individual tasks and achievements keep their own checkmarks.
Where to look: From the Cafeteria storage closet, inspect the three vent openings and take the far-right route into the kitchen/service area.
What to do: Craft the bench from inventory, deploy and assemble it with the screwdriver, then connect it to an outlet. Confirm live power, craft the Energy Brick and install the finished component at the Cafeteria door.
What should happen: The bench can craft and the door accepts the Energy Brick. Having the ingredients or an ordinary battery does not complete the door objective.
If it does not work: If crafting is unavailable, check bench power first, then the pinned recipe’s missing components. If the door remains closed, confirm the brick is finished and carried to the correct interaction point.
Carry one dependable melee tool, a small reserve of healing, a light source, food, and water. Leave a few inventory slots free for the next objective. These are packing recommendations, not a mandatory recipe bundle.

Read left to right. This is a wiring example for one critical device, not a floor map.
Start from a facility outlet that works during the day.
A single basic battery falls just short of a standard night for one device. Two in series cover that one load; more appliances change the calculation.
Feed the bench from the battery output. Check its operation through the whole night before adding another load.
Guide diagram. Arrows show connection order. Cable routes, room dimensions and outlet locations are not represented. Refer to the battery note for custom day lengths.
Bring the Anvil home for the recipe. At the finished station, choose repair, inspect the material needed for your worn item and repair one useful piece; check that durability rises. Salvage consumes the item, so confirm the selected operation. Until the station works, carrying enables the inventory repair-with-duct-tape option.
Repair your equipment, charge your light, and record the bench's location before leaving the Plaza. Keep replacement essentials here so a death does not strand your entire equipment supply in an uncleared room.
The facility's power schedule affects outlets and machinery. A plugged-in device is not proof that its outlet is currently supplying power. Plan nighttime crafting and powered defenses around that limitation.
Use these choices when the required level, resource or unlock is available. Opening this section does not change your character.
Compare or change your styleSoup unlocks at Cooking 3. Put a full 1,000 ml of clean water or Antejuice in a pot on a powered stove, then use a known recipe. Boiling 1,000 ml of tainted water produces only 250 ml clean water; four batches fill a soup pot. A sharp tool harvests corpses. Incorrect or hazardous ingredients can produce harmful food. Carry safe drinks; the expensive Lead Belly trait is optional.
Default facility outlets lose power at 21:00 and return at 06:00. Battery drain is one charge per five seconds per downstream appliance, including connected idle appliances. A fully charged basic battery powers one device for 250 real seconds; default night lasts 270 seconds. Two basic batteries in series cover one device for about 375 seconds. That example does not power an entire base. Additional fridges, traps or lights change runtime; modified day length changes the requirement.
A suppresses ordinary nearby spawning. Its area indicator helps identify coverage. Portal Suppression stops portal storms, not every assault. Item Transporter accesses eligible storage within 16 m. Dioxohealer recovers 3 HP/second, gaining 0.5 per nearby plant up to six plants; multiple benches do not stack healing. Do not promise a bench, a particular room or a suppression upgrade makes a base invulnerable.
Use a bed for fatigue recovery and check that the desired respawn point is assigned. Better beds improve recovery; the sleep activity and night acceleration have their own behavior. Check-in terminals offer an alternative respawn point. No unsupported all-players sleep quorum or exact fatigue arithmetic is assumed.
Update these only after collecting the item or checking the result in your game.
