going for 500 days

[snakevondoof]

day 127 of my 500 day stretch on voyager.

beautiful morning view from the mountaineers hut. I'm certainly no photographer, but dang this is so pretty I couldn't resist.

 

anyone have suggestions to make it to 500? I'm only on voyager so I don't anticipate this being all that difficult, just long. (asking for suggestions because that last sentence is generally famous last words)

I'm up to 450 on stalker right now. My advice: find things to keep you busy. Remember, it's a marathon, not a sprint. I can tell you that loot is plentiful and you can always come back for it, but you have one life. Play it safe. If you make sure you keep a decent sized supply of the essentials (cloth, metal, fuel, meds, ammo, etc) then you should be fine. The biggest risk is getting bored and doing things you weren't planning to do, and getting into trouble. When you leave home, have a plan. Where you are going, what you plan to bring home, how long you will be away, etc. Use the downtime between expeditions to build up supplies of wood and food/water. I spent my time unlocking badges and achievements, and generally took my sweet time. I still have one map left to loot. Use it as an opportunity to hone your survival skills and learn the game, the maps, etc. Experiment with different clothing set ups, tools, and diet and see what playstyle you like best. When you eventually start a new run you'll be a much wiser survivor than you were at the beginning.

thanks for the input! speaking of getting into trouble, got mauled by a bear on my way to ML in the upper portion of (un)pleasant valley, thankfully he left me with a decent % left. my only real issue is earlier in the run I managed to get some frostbite, so I'm always at 90%. so I have to play even safer. but that may have been a good thing because ive become quite the shot with my bow.

currently I'm working on getting archery master, its been fun. about halfway through level 4.

day 190, slowly but surely!
