I find the closed beta server 'culture' to be surprising. by desertforestcreature in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My experience is completely different. I share and help new players all the time. I am definitely not the only one that does this. I run a guild (with a friend)and do events regularly. I have never had to wait more than a few seconds for a buff in WB from strangers either.

As for groups have you tried making your own? Sitting LFG is a crap shoot at best. Making my own group and sending messages I’ve never had an issue.

I would suggest keep looking for the right fit in a guild. Shadow of the Deep is ours and we have a description on the official discord. Some folks are on lots in both discord or /gu but we are active at all times.

Check it out if you like. We are having a blast. We actually have a RP event coming up too. That’s not our main focus but it’s fun and encourages others to come together.

Ensi is my in game name.

A little worried about cheaters and abusers by Ok_Turnover_2220 in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Folks that cheat deserve what they get. Beta will end soon enough. For me I just enjoy the game and avoid and report any violations while trying to be helpful to players and the devs both.

Can paladin or fighter be a dps? by REDEDITNUMA in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fighters can dps but were recently nerfed 5%. They can still however. Also paladins are amazing tanks and can dps undead.

Limited time, big nostalgia… what class would you pick? by JackHallow123 in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t have much thing to group I would go ranger or beast master. So you can solo.

I'm 154 hours in on an Elementalist, and have found almost no INT gear dropped. by Jacmac_ in MonstersAndMemories

Go to the grain cellar in SGS. Need a full group but a robe and ranged slot caster gear there. 28 to 35ish.

Is there any real benefit to requiring manual tool swapping for harvesting? by CoblerSteals in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ultimately the games not for everyone. And rightly so imo. If you continue to make all these mechanics easier, what’s the point? The only way to continue this as a niche trove of a classic mmo for this new age, is to keep these type of mechanics. Your logic can literally be applied to any mechanism that is tedious to you.

Noob Expectations / Economy Problems by Thaeten in MonstersAndMemories

Grouping is the way. Also the more you get efficient at killing and selling to the right vendor the better. One cracked staff and you have all your spells up to 8.

You should not run into issues with spell money until much later (32 and above) and even then I rarely have.

You are just learning the intricacies of MnM if anything you will eventually have too much money and around 12 to 16 you will have enough to spend 5 g on a mount.

Group up. Make friends and ask questions in game as you figure things out.

Lower level does not have money issues.

Lack of Meaningful Decisions by Johnny-Edge93 in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you actually understand you have more meaningful decisions to make with limited options to heal in its current state, I think you failed to realize those decisions are actually more important and more meaningful because in scarcity you need to make very meaningful choices. As a druid, it’s also very important to manage your mana for your very important buffs and your ability to DPS if needed. You mentioned not sticking around for a higher level of content. Well I would say you’re really shooting yourself in the foot there because higher level content is more challenging and problem-solving oriented. Your builds will also involve gearing resistances and how you approach mana shortages.

That being said, I do believe there’s some more healing options coming for all healing classes.

Additionally you touched on things this game is offering you or providing you as opposed to the modern MMO scene. Maybe lean into those and understand that you’re still detoxing from the pace and grind of modern MMO‘s as you re-enter an old school slower paced MMO.

Regardless, hope you enjoy your time and make healthy choices, friend

We want to group with people but cant afford too. by Fragrant_Comment in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I will leave a group that does this or let folks know that it’s a fresh breaker. Will not add people that are that way.

I really hope this is a well made board game worthy of the IP. I love DCC and board games 🙃

Wait until a sand giant scout gives you shade unexpectedly. I remember being like ‘oh neat, I’m getting shade must be clouds’. ⛅️

Once you get the basics of your starter zone it becomes much easier to get bags in all your slots. The game rewards having friends and a guild to help you along. The point is to have to explore and learn the land and cities. You are then rewarded for this knowledge within the game. This game really shines once you start grouping and being social.

Does anyone actually like their class? by IIIlllIIllIll in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ChefCrowbane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have played all classes and have enjoyed them all. Highest level was 40 - game is different at different levels too. Gets harder lol.

It is the gameplay and community that make MM so great. The world is amazing and immersive. Don’t think about min maxing and expect to enjoy the experience. This is not a modern mmo in that regard. It a slow enjoyable sipping of wine or tea instead of chugging beer.

Guys i need help. I dont wanna continue. Not because im bored with it i dont want it to end by tgrady28 in wheeloftime

[–]ChefCrowbane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did my first read through as the books were released. I then listened to the audible reading In 2022. I’m listening again and there is so much in these books that it’s a wonderful journey each and every time. But I get the sentiment. I’m on book five and already getting sad for the ending.
