    Man, this game plateaus at a very specific point as mentioned - Morwyn and Hrimsorr. Everything else is easy and on farm. That jump in challenge is jarring. Currently 94 veteran points, and not a lot of points that will make either of those two fights easier. I suppose at 166 hours in, that...

    Yeah, like Kirun said, crafting is pretty supplemental, like cooking food, making potions and scrolls for buffs and useful spells. Items are pretty exclusively farmed off mobs. I think each class probably gets a quest line to make a single item; dwarf warrior was a crown that ended abruptly...

    After having the Spirit of the Forest drop the SAME items three times in a row, it dropped about 6 items in the 5th kill with the hide. I guess that tracks with the 20% drop rate. FINALLY.

    This: The Ancient Kingdom's Bible And read the thread, it ain't long, and some tips have been dropped here and there. And ask questions as you like! There's not a lot out there on this game.

    I'm tired, boss.

    Oh and the Ancient Cyclops's legendary drop is a sweet, sweet warrior artifact:

    I think I bought the cheapest horse in my late 30's, early 40s? Then I didn't think about it again until I had more than enough to buy the fastest. Sell everything. Eventually, when you need it, you should have enough storage to hold stuff. I now have 9/10 tabs, and they are all full except...

    Well, I did some light reading of the Steam threads on Ancient Kingdoms - looks like ToV was explicitly created for online groups. They say that some dragons have been beat by merc groups but it is very hard. There was also a comment on the overtuning of Morwynn, hopefully that gets fixed...

    Soooooooo........I've collected 68 of these Radiant Aethers and tonight decided to find out what they are for....perhaps crafting. No, as a matter of fact, you keep them in your inventory: Edit: Also, tried Hrimsor the giant caster boss, and that fear resist stance may have some value after...

    Got the giant king, but of course he dropped druid chest. The hardest part is clearing the room without aggroing everything and the boss; the fire casters do a ton of damage and getting two in a fight is even a bit of a challenge. Went to try the giant caster boss but that room with the...

    I gotta say, the hardest basic gear-slot to upgrade is bracer. My warrior is still running this, my last blue equipment item: Also, as an aside, I killed Avatar of Water. Bosses with AoE require careful placement. Pulling the Avatar of Water to the hallway protected most of my mercs from...

    FINALLY! The Draconium ore circle in NE Northern Wastes is actually pretty easy, decent xp from mobs (I got 1.5 veteran points doing it) and the panthers drop lots of meat for cooking (move speed food). Edit - my bind is in the city in Northern Wastes (Felarii) and typically every time I die...

    Gold income seems VERY low at the beginning but will pick up. I have 8 bank slots and 230 k saved up right now. You need to make sure you have banked money to revive your mercs and repair your items when you wipe. In retrospect, you are better off to sell everything until you know you need...

    This wait for the second key-holder spawn in the Vault of the Vanished is bullshit. 50% spawn chance my ass. Edit - I knew it - as soon as I complained it spawned lol.

    Urzak with a dispel scroll for the Primal Fury during Enrage is easy-peasy. Stack in a Scroll of Lethargy for good measure. Tried Avatar of Water blind, realized he has a problematic AOE that needs to be countered. I farmed for a couple more tries at him later. Kragek has dropped gloves for...
