How to explore without DP hell

Post by semyuk »

hi all

i was wondering if there are plans to enable players to gate safley to other regions to hunt ??

i was in a hunting group yesterday trying to get to the tryker village (im matis) and we got slaughterd way before the gate. It seems as if i will never see any other part of the big map as the mobs can rip anyone into shreds

i was just wondering as i cant see myself staying with the game if i cant go anywhere but where i can go now

I'd be wary of trying this at the moment - I noticed at the weekend I've lost all my spawn points so my only way back to lands I've visited before is via the use of tickets.

Which is fine but unless you're in a big group with some high levels, you are going to die getting to another land and I'm not 100% you'll retain the spawn points - which could get very frustrating very quickly.

I dont get frustrated when i first tried to get to Zorai from PR under spring i tried for 4 hours and spent 500k in tickets till i went to bed with maxed out DP, When i tried to get to matis i tried for a week solo-group till 2 of us made it. I relish a challenge and this is precisley why im going to try toinight and WHEN I make it ill sit down and have a puff on my pipe and have a good wee smile to myself in satisfaction, If i dont make it oh well 700kdp to work of another challenge :P

On the spawn point 'bug'.

When you teleport to a new land, its best to log out and back in. This re-enables the spawn points.

I had this occur 3 times over the weekend and the CSR have past it on to the devs.

hmm ok

the only point I was making was :if you try and make it and only get half way you should get a spawn point but I know I've lost mine after the last patch - so it might be even harder than usual in that you've got to do it all in one sitting.

also the trip from matis to tryker is impossible unless you can fight the big torbaks - they block too many narrow passage ways where they can't move out of the way, so plan on going in a big group.

well there could be a solution for exploring whithout getting killed... the guides and senior guides and gms are immortal. simply tackle one.. leash it... and drag it along as food for aggro monsters... it has unlimited hp number.. aggro monsters eats at will, you go on happyly dragging him and 70 aggro monsters chewing on him :D

When the ridable mektoubs comes back into game it should be easier to explore.

You think a mektoub is going to be faster than a kincher or any other agro?
And you can't fight from the saddle either. No, its just a quicker way to lose 100k dappers & reach dp max.

Right you will be able to ride into death faster. And loose a bit more money on the way. Thats a great improvement, because you wont waste so much time then.

You don't believe that mounts will have the neccessary 200+ run speed factor now do you? And as sof player mounts. It was said that the Atrium Guild (guides) will have those available with this patch. But I asked a few and they don't have them. Not even seen any GM with a mount so my guess is they don't even work for them.

Exploring the lands atm is a pure DP gathering activity. You might get lucky sneaking through but you will have to be VERY lucky. One wrong move or a mob that decides to change its location at the wrong time and you are done for.
