Finally starting to figure some stuff out on this game. I'm having quite a bit of fun with this one and I haven't played an mmorpg this steadily in a long time. I do have a question though. Is it best to consume the food that you make or sell it? Also, I haven't quite figured out the strength (from trading town to town) and health (eating food) benefits. Still level one on both of those but close to level two. Got my processing and fishing to apprentice two and working on the float quest from Croix in Velia now. I've bought several hoes and I've been farming potatoes right outside of town when I have the energy. Is that the best way to go about getting flour?

I guess if you're hurting for silver and you really don't want to grind (to which I would say the game isn't for you) you could sell the food BUT it will simply set you back that many more hours later on. Eating any food gives you exp towards your health pool increases which are great if not 'super' important.

I don't think there's any reason to sell food - by the time you can make anything worth selling you should have enough junk food production to choke down an egg or chicken leg every time your CD is up for HP bonuses.

Yes potatoes is the easiest way for flour IMO but I have CP setup to farm the shit out of Velia right now. Blowing energy on them with a hoe seems really worthless as 1 worker can get hundreds.

The only costumes with stats right now are:
1) Ghillie Suit
2) MiniSkirt Kimono
3) Negligee with wings
4) Negligee without wings
5) Imagine Van Helsing as a hooker
6) Weird white cloth/lace half-armor thing with gold trim pieces
7) Plum default 'armor' dress (admittedly the least bad looking but still not really armor)
8) Weaboo Murloc costume
9) English riding costume that lets you know you need to lose a few pounds

Also what the hell is up with this game bug with hair. Every one of my characters has black hair as soon as they enter game but it's fine in character select.

Training strength and weight limit is easy. Buy a cheap item off a trader and have it go into your inventory (makes a pack). Then use the autoloop feature on the map and press T. Your guy walks back and forth with the pack and gets weight training. Use this overnight while you sleep and do it in a safe area where you won't die.

Got my 12 Maehwa seals today for the hawk pet. Combined my two level 10 tier 1 cats and got lucky; tier 3 cat that looks kinda cool. +3% farming and processing for skills though

Hopefully my new 2nd hawk will get +3% combat when it hits 10!

No, they gain xp each time you feed them. Essentially you just have them out and they slowly lose satiety - when you replenish them they gain xp and level up.

Anyone know the math behind gear tier upgrades (through workshops, not blackstones)

Failed 4 times upgrading blue yuria to ultimate.

Do i need to dump energy into the city node? Using a professional human with 21.6 luck for the actual work, does my characters luck play into things? None of my workers have +weapon upgrade chance, if thats even a thing. He does have +5 weapon work speed

Be prepared to sacrifice to RNGesus. Guy in XRP finally hit his at 36 tries or something silly like that.

Thats one of the few gripes I have about this game. But its the same way with League of Legends. Any of the Warrior "outfits" they have just arent to my taste. The "Goyen" and "Clead" are the only ones Ive ran across when I was googling about the set effect that I found were actually more my flavor. I guess theyre in Korea and coming to NA I hope? I just dont see my Warrior as some flamboyant Chocobo rider or a red guard, or a fucking cupid of all fn things. Some of the outfits just dont even match a "warrior-esque" look. But to each their own I guess.
