    Got another bad one. "Shrouded in Twilight." Level 48, I'm pretty sure it's part of one of those armor quests. You need 14 of an item, but they apparently coded it wrong, and there's only 1 spawn. On a 1 minute respawn timer.

    Speaking of quests, all those armor building quests (with gear 420, 440, 460) you were apparently supposed to keep, but no one did. I guess at the end of the questline you upgrade them. Awesome...faggot developers.

    I don't think I've even encountered a quest that spawns a mob. Are they all at 60?

    I don't think we've knocked on doors, but when we've seen people outside on places we intended to offer on, we definitely chatted with them to get a feel for the neighborhood.

    Well holy shit, the main quest turn in after Dynasty gave me like 2/3 of a level. Still have some grinding to go until 60 though.

    Game definitely has some issues, but it's two weeks in. And as said, before this came out the consensus seemed to be everyone hoping to get 100 hours or a month out of it. Seems like a success in that. I doubt anyone's really done the end game dungeons yet. There's still content, it's just...

    My original goal was to get 100 hours out of it. I'm at 130. And I'll likely play for a bit longer. So I'd say it was worthwhile.

    Wait, what? The 600 item score crafted stuff is BoP? That's a strange decision if so.

    The crafting complaints are kind of the same. The amount of materials needed to level from 1-100 is something like 3% of what's needed from 101-200. This game has some massive parabolic shit built in. Likely because they didn't test anything but the first 30-40 levels.

    You just wait. I read something in Global chat that 1-50 is 1.3 million xp, and 51-60 is 1 million. Believe me, there aren't enough quests. Otherwise you wouldn't see people in their 50's running town board quests, Amrine, and portals. That's literally all there is.

    Likely by the time they get transfers worked out, they'll be completely unnecessary. I haven't had a queue in like 5 days. Every time I see a level 60 I feel a little bad for them. I'm not sure why. Maybe the fun part of the game is over for them? And yet, I'm 4 and a half levels from it. And...

    So Edengrove is super vibrant (maybe too much), but man is it a fucking annoyance to travel in. Like Great Cleave but worse. Doing the main quest and you have to run 2-3km on a single pathway with no variance on the left/right, and it's filled with level 59-60 archers and shit. SUPER FUN!

    Switch to portal runs when you're bored of town boards? They're decent XP. Glad to hear about the quest exp though. I'm about to be 52 and still haven't run Depths again to finish it. Hopefully soon. So that should push me to 54 or 55 depending on when I run it.

    I got a super awesome purple necklace from boars, and a few gathering armor pieces. That's about it. To be honest, I destroy almost everything now though. Including blues. Ctrl + S + left click is quick salvage.

    Did you go strength build then? I'm still all in on focus, but with hatchet amber gem.

    Weird because it's just set to spawn that fast, it's not "repeatedly chain spawning" anything, they coded it that way.

    I figured out my solution to the mana potion problem. Just run boars for a bit and you get so many god damn drops. It'll absolutely get nerfed eventually, but I've got quite a few now. I've had to spend a lot of time there leveling weapons, because I'm dying constantly trying to quest now...

    Well, my build is officially worthless I think. Although it may just be that I need to start investing in amber gems. That whole super fast respawn (and close spawns) in higher level zones is becoming deadly. I just don't put out nearly enough damage. I'll see if I can find some cheap gems, but...

    This is definitely nice, but around level 45 or so they start respawning so fast that by the time you clear the first few that swarmed you, well, you get to start over. It's a bit ridiculous.

    I have a ton of dragon fish jaws, and a couple soulwyrm tongues, but zero soulsprout flowers. I'm wondering if maybe it's one of those things where you need food, trophies, and gear with chance to harvest rares to get them? In which case, again, it seems like a lot of stuff is balanced around...

    Okay, that makes sense. Speaking of, yeah, that shit is way too rare. I need mana pots for healing dungeons, but I haven't seen a single T4 or T5 resource to make one yet. What the fuck? Am I basically supposed to only use T3 potions for the entirety of the game? Obviously no testing went into...

    So yeah, looks super fucking cool, not even remotely worth the effort. Same required level as the normal starmetal stuff. Only made the chest piece, the rest is starmetal.

    That's what I made. The 110 heavy armor that takes 10 corrupted talismans. It's...not good. I mean, it'd be good for a level 30 something, but for anyone who can actually run the depths, it's not worth the trouble. I'll screenshot it next time I log in. Unless there are dropped recipes for 40...

    It was mostly that we were looking for something under 1500sqft, and nearly all of them just had bad floorplans where things like the master bath seemed super cramped, or the closet was tiny. With this one, everything looks super spacious. It's all about the layout and this was is mostly good.

    Oh, I also ran the Depths and it was a catastrophic failure. I'm not sure if it's just cause one of our DPS was too low level (42, the other two were 46, tank 46, healer was me at 47; tank and one of the DPS had done it before), but we just couldn't kill the last boss at all. Think we tried...

    Yeah, the reason we went with new is that the floorplans for most houses are so shit for the size we wanted. This basically nailed it all. There are a few minor things we don't like, but for the most part we love it. Although we'll see when we move in. My wife apparently didn't love our last...

    Named pirate (was a quest mob) on the eastern side of Mourningwood. Also, I rescind my statement about crafted items. I made a piece of the Depth armor and it was basically a worse version of the heavy starmetal stuff. So there's jack shit for crafted armor between about 35 and 60...

    Had our inspection today. Very, very minor stuff, although it's new construction so not surprising. Most of the stuff likely would've been fixed without the inspection pointing it out (like caulking around some windows, a faucet, that kind of stuff). Have our first walkthrough with the builder...

    I decided to start doing town boards, mostly because I want my T4 house, and I realized getting to 30 in a city is going to level me way more than I want. Like, I don't want to go from level 45 to 55 just grinding away at city rep and miss the rest of the game, but that appears the case.

    Skinning seems to be the easiest to level by far. I remember someplace in Cutlass that had some demon dogs that were giving like 850 skinning XP per.

    I get it all the time. Expeditions definitely cause it, but not always. Portals will, but I'm not sure if it's the portal itself or using excessive map markers (since people mark the next one to go to). Just playing a long time will do it. Shit, actually, today I logged back in and opened the...

    So on the whether crafting will be worth it, I have to guess yes. I mentioned my starmetal heavy armor. I know the helmet is min level 33.

    For sure. Just taking armoring for example if you use fibers, the breakdown is like this: 0 - 50: 2,376 fibers 51 - 100: 20,480 fibers 101 - 200: 373,874 fibers Add rawhide at about 60% of those numbers for each leveling range. And that's just a single skill. I'm honestly not sure how possible...
