Guide: Hoarding Cyberware
Interested in obtaining more Salvaged Cyberware? You've come to the right place!
The easiest way to obtain more Salvaged Cyberware is to use the Looting enchantment on your weapons, this will give Cyberzombies a higher chance of dropping Cyberware. Sometimes, though, the number of Cyberzombies is the problem. Thankfully, Cyberware provides a way to increase Cyberzombie spawns... Radios.
Radios come in three tiers, the Cranial Broadcaster, Radio Kit, and Radio Beacon. If you are equipped with a Hudjack, you will be notified when entering or leaving the functional radius of one of these radios.
The Cranial Broadcaster is an augment that can be dropped from Cyberzombies. It's the weakest tier of radio, but it has the advantage of being mobile. The Cranial Broadcaster will affect all mobs spawned within a 32-block range horizontally, enough to affect all mobs spawned by the player using it. It has a 5% chance to convert a normal Zombie spawn into a Cyberzombie spawn, and 50% of converted spawns will be Cyberzombie Brutes.
The Radio Kit is an early-game radio that can be placed in the world. It's crafted like so:
The Radio Kit affects all mobs spawned in a 64-block radius horizontally, covering an impressive 3217 square blocks. It has a 10% chance to convert normal Zombie spawns inside this radius into Cyberzombie spawns. 50% of converted spawns will be Cyberzombie Brutes. You can turn off the Radio Kit by providing a redstone signal.
The Radio Beacon is a late-game multiblock radio with an extensive range. To assemble one, you'll need 42 Radio Tower Components and a Radio Beacon.
To assemble the beacon, build 4 layers of 3x3 Components, with 6 Components pillared on top, like so:
The tower will then take the form of a model, at which point you can place the Radio Beacon on top. If functioning, it will emit particles.
The Radio Beacon affects all mobs spawned in a 128-block radius horizontally, covering a massive 12868 square blocks. It has a 20% chance to convert normal Zombie spawns inside this radius into Cyberzombie spawns. 50% of converted spawns will be Cyberzombie Brutes. You can turn off the Radio Beacon by powering its base in the designated locations.
