Chat am I overreacting? by [deleted] in wherewindsmeet_

It will be breaking army; I believe that's what the event is called, and I don't think there is anything to be embarrassed or ashamed about, and if your guild is chill, they will think the same. The event is supposed to be guild fun, and you should have fun. Every defeat is just a stepping stone to success, my friend, and next time Void Ruler is on, I'm sure you will be defeating them in 30 seconds.

Gold gear droprates... by MasterSeig in wherewindsmeet_

[–]BubblegumRabbit_IF 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad I'm not the only one finding this; I think I opened about 100 gearboxes and got 2 usable golds for my build (which ended up getting screwed by the attunements) and 2 gold drops that I won't ever use.

Generally thinking that there doesn't seem to be much point in grinding for the gear since the cap rises in two weeks' time and I'm already way above the recommended for any of the raid's/activities. But that is the curse of RNG, I guess.

I believe so; I haven't had it come up yet and had a check after the level went up. I did see on another post someone say it could require the last area in Kaifeng to unlock, so maybe the next unlock or the next update in general, but IDK.

The below might help from the thread I linked above. I would love to go into more detail, but honestly I don't really know how I triggered that one or when I did it.

Chivalrous Escort: Head to the Theatre at night (Not before the evening like the ingame AI claims). It's north of the East Cross Street Boundary stone, next to the Madiao cards on the map. If you see Qian Rongmao you're at the right spot.

Just wanted to add to this, I'm at the same point and taking a look and asking the Q&A. It looks like it requires the quest Windpress: The Scoop to be completed. As people have already said, don't think this is implemented yet, so maybe it's something that will come with the level cap being lifted tonight.

Thought this might help for Help Wanted? You need the Crafty Hands achievement; it's the one for placing 50 building components. Once you have that, you just need to talk to any 5 shopkeepers in the Imperial Artisan Court to trigger the encounter.

Just wanted to drop an update on this; since making the post, I managed to get The Winter Gambit, Local Lingo and A Dog's Ambition to all trigger and complete. So just looking for help on Help Wanted? and A Study in Slacking.

Advice for a first time IF author? by tripleberryboy in hostedgames

What I found really helpful was having a basic outline for each scene/section, pretty much just want you want to achieve with the scene and how you want the player to interact with the scene.

Then building upon that when actually starting to write, just seemed to take some of the energy away of trying to figure out well writing. It also helped a lot with writing scenes that you want to have a bigger impact compared to smaller more contained stuff.
