Grind for resources is brutal

[😒]

Far far too many resources needed to craft. The grind is insane, especially for a game with a lighthearted appeal. The ratio of ores to bars, and mats to the different types of cloth for example is a game breaker, frankly. IMO, of course.

I log out for this reason and don't play much because of it. This mega resource grind is not fun, in any way to me.

I suggest a toning down opf this grind, especially at top end it needs a more reasonable ratio of mats to item.

Just some feedback, thanks.

I feel yea, I just got the last island for my game and farming end game mats for some of the last sets I need, and the lack of mats is real, I was temped to make a new game but I have to open up all the portals again and that kinda turned me off. The next update we really need bigger maps not only for more mats but to be able to create some nice building/forts/cities. We are very limited on what we can do right now and yes I know it's early acess (it was more as I hope we get it).

I love this game! But do agree, mats are imbalanced currently. You can plant 2000 silk seeds and be swimming in cloth, yet go to a new zone and only find enough ores to make 2 iron bars. It seems there are 25-30 Coal nodes for every Iron node, for example.

[😒]

I think they just need to rebalance the ratios and the abundance. I just find it too tedious to continue personally.

It's a bit high for new players, but once you know what you're doing it's all good. I for one completely skilled the gold category and just used iron gear, farmed Ghost King, and got my end gear within a short amount of time.

People make this out to be much worse than it actually is, you really just gotta do it properly, which currently means go farm Ghost King since he straight up drops Titanium Bars. Mining for Titanium specifically is a waste of time.

I have all the gear you can possibly want, including extra stuff for other characters (like 2 wands for my Mage, i am playing a Ranger however), and have a whopping 10 titanium chests, including almost a full stack of titanium bars left over, so it can't be as bad as people make it out to be when i don't have that many hours played, right ?

Less than 50 hours is a pretty low amount imo, and a lot of that came from building of course i didn't just fight. (As my screenshots show.)

I just figured out that "Ghost King drops Titanium Bars" like 15 mins ago, and farming him.

Yeah, that's good for you then, that's what you should be doing :). Like i said, i completely skipped gold that way, i went from iron straight to titanium.

I mean... literally the only reason you'd still want titanium after having your gear (which you get pretty quickly) is for convenience, like chests, and that is not a must but rather preparing for the future, like i did.

Also, one little tip, for the love of god people, do NOT craft any of those plated-blocks, the bosses drop them, like... you get titanium plate-blocks by killing the Ghost King for example, it's a waste of bars to craft them ! So if you wanna build something out of those, like myself (made a castle out of titanium plate-blocks) then do that instead.

It all so might be great to keep a lot of them just in case more armor and wep are added that needs it to craft.

Yes of course, that's why i said you don't need any ore/bars after getting your gear really, it's just for convenience at that point rather, for future content.

I don't know, the final tier of gear should be harder to obtain. Maybe materials aren't the way to go about doing it, but add some sort of "special" material that RNG drops from a boss or hitting some certain achievement? That way maybe it only takes 20 titanium ore now, but you'll have to deveot "some" time to gaining that final "epic" material piece.

Possibly even adding a mini boss that has the ability to spawn in specific biomes?

As people stated, getting silk is incredibly easy when comapred to how inaccessible gold can become. I like the idea of growing a farm, but maybe make it not gear specific mats?

But for that problem there is boss farming already. No need for gold !

As for the final tier (titanium in this case) being too accessible, funny you say that while as you can clearly see a lot of people are complaining about how hard it is to get xD uhm... well, i'm pretty sure quality 30 is not going to be the best one forever, i mean we will get more/harder content eventually (hopefully) so there's that.

I never said it was too accesible, at all, because it's not. All I stated is it should be harder to get being the final tier.

And yes, the final boss does drop titanium, but it can get repetitive farming the same boss over and over again. That's why I suggested these random mini bosses.

Well... now you're nitpicking lol. Something being easy to get is pretty much the same thing as something being too accessible.

Too easy to get, too accessible, too easy to obtain, too easily accessible or whatever all means the same thing.

I never said titanium was easy/accessible, I said silk was, and it is, as someone stated above.

Anyway, one thing they should fix is character copying. It's pretty easy to mass copy materials once you have them.

You mean duping essentially ? If so, haven't heard of it yet, all my stuff is farmed !

Also, you just said that "the final tier should be harder to obtain".... the final stuff IS titanium lol, come on man. Almost every single piece of end gear requires primarily titanium.

[Cubbs]

No... I didn't.

I said it should be harder to obtain, in response to people complaining it should be made easier. I see the confusion though... I'm simply disagreeing in that it should stay difficult to obtain, I just don't currently agree that a massive farm fest of the same repeititve material should be required.

Just my opinion though.
