Sector X difficult o.O

Yesterday my brave little Robot reached Sector X.
Equipped with the Best of the Best he started to explore the new Sector step for step aaaaand, got oneshotted. From everything.
Even the rabbits in Sector X are wielding Adamantium Claws and breathing Fire and Doom.
WTF. Seriously. In Delta Sector I can Fight 5 Mobs at once, in X my toon gets instakilled from every touch.

I managed to trap a Monster, only to shoot for 2 Minutes with my Grenadelauncher to get it down. How should i progress to get new equip this way ?

Needs some rebalance me thinks. ?

 

Did you pay attention to planet's threat level? You should start with 5, but in seems you got straight on 10.

 

So you tell me there are different Planets in X ? Haha...then it was maybe too late yesterday. Didnt realize.

 

Sector X now contains all the planets with difficulty from 5 to 10

 

you should go to a lvl 5 planet and start mining aegisalt to get on the right equipment lvl for X sector

 

Sector X is currently a melting pot of sectors 5 through ten then the real sector X. So there's absolutely NOT balancing to be found there. Tread with great care and carry a BIG GUN or Sword

 

I can never tell if it's X or Chi (Greek: χ)

But as it's a filler sector for now, it's vastly different from the previous four. Like others have said, the planet threat levels vary from five to 10.

 

There's a whole new tier system in the end game. So start mining Aegisalt ore, create 40 bars and build the next blueprint. Than go to a level 6 planet and repeat.

 

I'd recommend just digging in to various planets at tier 6, 8, and then 10 until you reach impervium armor. Avoid monsters entirely (easy while mining). It takes maybe 30 mins to an hour to skip from tier 5 to 10. There isn't any content you'll be missing by skipping those tiers and you might as well get to 10 so you have a chance of finding new weapons you won't just throw away minutes later. As a whole, sector X adds new biomes, planet types, structures, and cool things, but tier 5-9 gear is just placeholder content at this point. Getting impervium keeps you from being one-shot by everything.

 

I have the same problem.

There are 2 solutions:

Find a village and buy a weapon.
All sector X weapons hit well over 2k

Trap em.
Use dirt and trap monsters in cages so you can mine.

 

You obviously don't have the best of the best because if you did you wouldn't get one shotted. Me with tier 10 on a level 10 planet doesn't get one shotted by anything including mini boss. o.o

 

In Sector X you'll find plenty of chests with good range weapons. I was lucky and came across a level 5 planet with an airship, but i had to realize, that my found pistols/rifles/launchers were all better than what the avians had.
