When did you start getting purples? I still haven't seen a single one. In Mourningdale now, but was mostly in Restless before.

More tips

Before entering the 26-35 zone, you need to make sure your mining and gathering are at 100 or higher. Only high end nodes are in that zone. The exception is animals, trees and rocks.

Start farming the nameds and they will drop. Random purps started dropping for me in the high 40s. Getting more of them as I approach 50 it seems.

Nahh, simply not true. Almost every zone I go to has iron. Even the zone im in now, which is 40-50 still has iron and hemp and other shit.

Yeah you will get wrecked. And its not all that. Takes like 1+ hours to level a weapon up to like 12, worse if youre melee. Then it takes exponentially longer.

Since I leveled up my great axe and hatchet to 20 I equipped a spear and just been questing with it on, doing some exp farming here and there yesterday, and now its Lv13.

You're still on the right track with your thought process. Its not that you cant go there, you'll still have stuff to gather like has been said. But you'll be missing out on gathering exp quite a bit. I had to grind out skinning twice in Brightwood for example, just to be able to skin the 75 requirement, then as I progressed, the 100 requirement - both within the same zone. People that dont grind up to that point, myself included at one point, are missing out on exp they could get from those nodes. Tree Chopping is about the only thing I still have under 100 but its so rare that I see any trees above mature that I dont think its worth it unless you're concentrating on them. 53 Now and still trying to pump my numbers up in life skills. I'll have to do them anyways, regardless if I'm 60 or not - so Im thinking I might as well do them now and gain the benefit of the exp earned doing so.

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 don't even pay attention to what I'm getting now, but I just happened to notice earlier that I'm suddenly at 161.

It seems to be the only one that scales up. Mining does too, but there are so few nodes that are high level that it's not as noticable. Plus, things like platinum, lodestone, or starmetal take so many whacks, while skinning is like 2 seconds.

Harvesting and logging just don't have enough variety to level. Harvesting you can go "faster" by quantity; just get every single hemp or herbs you see. The trees though just seem like a grind until you can harvest those dogs. I haven't gotten to that point, but apparently it flies on those.

I'm usually not "that guy", but if you spam music on the in-game voice chat in a settlement, I will report your dumbass.

I forgot about how many autists there are in the world. 🤔

Voice chat? Lol. What you described is why I never used voice chat. I don't want to hear some 15yo's shitty music, bong rips, mouth breathers and nose whistlers, etc. I hate voice chat because 75% of people's voice chat is like nails on a chalkboard. I can't believe people can be in voice chat with more than a few friends.

I think once people realize just HOW MUCH they will have to harvest for later tiers, they'll leave that crap to the dedicated harvester/crafter types. I'm a bit of a completionist, and it's nice to see all my harvest skills keeping up. But man, the amount of materials across *all* tiers you need just to raise crafting skills to make higher level stuff is stupid. Then on top of that you need to open a crazy amount of loot boxes, hoping to get sandpaper, or whatever you currently need to process mats. And each new tier will add to that *exponentially*. I really hope they change it.

There anything I'm missing on logging or do I just have to spend like 4 hours chopping the same trees to go from 50>100?
