Rusty’s Retirement: Reaper’s Outpost & Chips for Crops | Update #2

Reaper is a new little robot introduced with the most recent Winter update.

By building an outpost on your farm, Reaper will be able to park his vehicle.

This character sells crop enhancement chips.

In case you don’t like his offerings, you can re-roll what is available in his shop at no extra cost.

Chips are similar to microprocessors that improve (or worsen) the statistics of your Crops, such as:

• Growth speed
• Biofuel produced
• Number of harvests
• Number of waterings
• Etc.

Chips can be of different rarities:

• Green, the most common: it comes with one positive and one negative statistic
  
• Blue, rare: occurs with only one positive statistic
  
• Orange, legendary: comes with two positive statistics
  
• White, unclassified: occurs with at least two positive statistics
  

In the Crops section, all those on which a Chip has been installed will display a symbol in the bottom left-hand corner, next to the image of the Crop, with the colour relating to the rarity of the Chip.

When purchasing, if a Crop already has a Chip applied, you will be presented with the modified statistics compared.

If, on the other hand, there is still no chip applied, the crop will be completely empty.

Chips are to be considered as an almost End-Game mechanic given their very high prices.

Green rarity Chips are the cheapest and can be purchased at any point in the game, though I suggest not wasting your resources on these Chips, except to complete the corresponding achievement.

If you have enough money, buy the Blue Chips directly, and then upgrade to the Orange (Legendary) ones as soon as you have the chance.

Therefore, if the presented offer does not satisfy you, press ‘Reroll’ and wait 12 minutes.
Please note that there is no charge for the reroll!

With the new update, in addition to Reaper, new Achievements also appeared to be completed.

I have also blacked out the descriptions to avoid spoiling the surprise

This was my first ever written guide on Steam.
I hope it has been useful to you.

Obviously I will try to keep it updated over time, also based on official news and any comments you may have.

Happy gaming to all :]
