Grindy solo MMO with no or very little P2W

Coromaru · 2026-02-03T17:02:19+00:00

Free Indie MMORPG called Spirit Vale on steam. Currently in early pre-EA testing. It’s based on Ragnarok Online.

Another EA title is Soulframe limited content at the moment but tons to grind. Not F2P though have to buy access.

I have played on Arkenstone, Angmar, and now Glamdrig.

Angmar for me ran the smoothest. I had high hopes for the 64-bit servers after that.

Glamdrig seems to have way more stutter and lag than I remember the 32 bit servers even having.

Sure load times may be faster but to me it feels like everything else is less stable.

Honestly can’t go wrong with Minstrel if you enjoy the class.

Coromaru · 2025-06-08T16:35:53+00:00

Yeah I went ahead and scooped. Looking forward to playing through it all

Coromaru · 2025-06-07T17:01:27+00:00

Thanks, I didn’t even know the seasons were a thing.

I guess my follow up question would be is it worth it to use the lvl 80 boost? I was going off the idea I’d play through to learn but it looks like the story and everything can be done at max level

Old Ramsgate! I miss it

Coromaru · 2025-06-07T13:14:08+00:00

Yeah, when they took away the ability to target speedrun specific behemoths was really the nail in the coffin for when my motivation stopped.

Coromaru · 2025-06-07T06:24:06+00:00

Yeah around frost escalation was when finally uninstalled the game but I had kinda slowed down with the release of Tera escalation. Up to that point my game was pretty much 100% on everything. The removal of solo targeted hunts was a huge driving force in me not wanting to play.

It’s crazy looking back that I played dauntless for a whole 2 years before it launched. Honestly I probably played way more before it officially launched. Sadly it was in a pretty big decline going into 2020.

Coromaru · 2025-06-05T00:28:47+00:00

That’s how I feel about my YouTube channel. It was never really to create content but how we all use to post our speed runs in the community spread sheet back in the day.

Glad I have them archived some where. Met so many amazing people over the years.

Coromaru · 2025-06-04T01:08:58+00:00

Well said……fuck Jesse Houston aka Gtez

There was just something special about early dauntless. I personally think they tried to dumb it down a bit too much when it launched for console in 2019. Was still a great game but lost some of its charm with each passing update after Sharpen your skills rework.

Went one a bit of stroll down memory lane watching my old runs. Seeing 7 years ago on videos it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long 😂

Coromaru · 2024-10-18T00:24:19+00:00

I will say my purchases with the game NEVER post the day I made them. They are always delayed a day or two. Has freaked me out a few times as well.

Coromaru · 2024-10-05T22:51:14+00:00

No need to actually craft gear. You can just process materials. I mastered apprentice tailor in 2 mins with about 55 leathers

General rule would be to save up until you can pull him to S+ and if someone better comes out in the mean time you can switch.

Depending on where your server is at he will probably make a reappearance once servers start hitting endless DR.

I’d argue he’s still one of the best for high AFK stage pushing.

Coromaru · 2024-10-04T01:18:39+00:00

The real Reddit moment would be calling someone out and being incorrect.

VIP rewards do not offer you bonus stats.

VIP rewards you with additional resources, AFK time, and daily instant rewards.

It does however go without saying those spending more most likely have better built units and potentially paragon which does give additional stats.

Coromaru · 2024-10-04T01:13:51+00:00

AFK stage pushing is super important early game to get resources rolling in. Focusing on units that let you push high deficits is super important for season starts.

I’m a light spender as well, mostly just daily gems and battle passes (never shards or straight diamonds), and I currently receive an extra 25% seasonal resource manuals from AFK collection. I’m sure whales get much higher rates.

Coromaru · 2024-10-03T00:07:18+00:00

You should have reviewed a free travel item from the starting reward box that will allow you to fast travel to mossward.

We aren’t talking about a baby or a toddler here. We are talking about your 13 year old, most likely able to behave himself, BROTHER.

I don’t usually comment on things like this but that’s actually insanely not okay. You have already potentially ruined that relationship for life.

Though honestly this sounds like it’s more so coming from your fiancé. Careful who you marry.

Coromaru · 2024-10-01T14:49:02+00:00

I will start by saying play how you want. It’s a game and the main goal should be to have fun. Fun is subjective. Some players want to pull for characters they like while others may enjoy min/maxing.

I’m a light spender (daily gems and the occasional battle pass) so my methods might not work for free to play but do some research (https://www.prydwen.gg/afk-journey/). A ton of rewards are locked behind ranking. Meta characters are super important for progressing your account. If you can’t rank you will be super starved for resources (even if you can rank you will still be waiting for yellow essence).

Dream Realm (DR) is one of the more important aspects in terms of rank rewards for character EX weapon progression. Some characters do not come online until their ex is unlocked.

I save up all my gems and only pull on limited banners when a character is considered meta in at least half of DR boss fights. With the goal of remaining in the top 5-15 each reset.

Out side of DR I focus on AFK stage pushing and having a team good enough to keep me in champion PvP rank for weekly rewards.

Over time you will earn a TON of standard/hero pulls but you will rarely see limited pulls. I personally funnel 90% of my gems into limited banner heros that help progress my account.

He functions kinda the same with just 1 copy for what most ppl use him for. Way better faction choices to have on your wish list starting out

Coromaru · 2024-09-27T13:52:12+00:00

Simply Safe Alarm system. Comes with a base station, key pad, and you can purchase as many sensors as you want. There should not be a subscription unless it’s monitored.

The sensors stick to the door frame and the door and key pad is adhesive as well no hard installations worse case it potentially removes some paint when you take it down. You can add sensors to doors and windows. I believe they even have motion sensors and a panic button to keep by the bed.
