It is time to take a break from all the beekeeping adventures in ICARUS. In the newly released Week 113 Update, players gain a couple of new rugs that they can craft once they have reached the appropriate level.
Time to Craft
The new rugs in question are the Buffalo Rug and Thin Woven Rug. Before players can craft these, though, they must have already unlocked the Advanced Textiles Bench and the Advanced Rug Set.
The Advanced Textiles Bench is available to players once they have reached level 20. The blueprint for this can be researched at the Tier 3 Tech Tree. Once players get a hold of its blueprint, they will need 20 pieces of Iron Ingot, six pieces of wood, eight epoxies, several ropes, and 40 steel screws to put this thing up.
Once the Advanced Textiles Bench is established, players can then interact with it to take the Advanced Rug Set, which will unlock the ability to craft the new Buffalo Rug and Thin Weave Rug.
Players will need to secure some raw materials first before they can create the new rugs. Here is a rundown:
-
Buffalo Rug
-
1x Buffalo Vestige
-
30x Fur
-
10x Cured Leather
-
5x Platinum Weave
-
-
Thin Woven Rug
-
10x Cured Leather
-
10x Platinum Weave
-
60x Fiber

Bees Nerfed
Bees in ICARUS were introduced in the last major update and while they provide some interesting stuff, some players have clamored for the developers to do something about the knockback mechanic.
For those who do not know, bees can be found in the open world and the various caves in the game. Last week, players would often find themselves unable to advance because the bees would knock them back every time they got stung.
The good news is that the developers have made a huge change where the bees are no longer able to knock players back. And for good measure, the development team has made it so that the bees will disperse after one swipe of a melee weapon.
