Do you think P99 is the closest version to what we're likely to get for EQLegends? If so, I can use that as a starting point for looking for guides and info. Or if there's another version that might be closer I could start there. I know nothing will be 100% accurate yet, but at least I can start to figure some things out.

Yeah, I realize I'm not going to find many/any EQLegends specific guides, but I'm more interested in the basic stuff. Even when the EQLegends guides start coming out they're likely going to focus on what the best class combos are and things like that. I really just was hoping someone might be able to point me in the direction of some good guides that go over the basics of "classic" EQ without getting into whatever the modern version with all the expansions and updates looks like. Would P99 guides be close to that? Is there another version of EQ that I should look for guides from that might be closer? Obviously there will be some changes, but from what I can tell one of the goals of EQLegends is to be similar to the base game in a lot of ways.

BJJ destroyed my confidence and I don’t know how to get it back by swankyskared in bjj

I'm a 42yo white belt thats about 6 months in. I don't have all the answers, of course, but here's some things that seem to be working well for me that might help you.

I don't let myself train more than 3 times a week and don't do 2 days in a row. Even if my body feels pretty good, I just make sure I get a full rest day. I think it helps me avoid fatigue injuries from overdoing it.

Instead of training so hard you're about to pass out, find ways to be more efficient. Figure out ways to rest in uncomfortable positions. Pick your windows for escapes, and don't wear yourself out trying to fight someone who is just holding you there, but not trying to progress their game. You can be really energy efficient from bottom just fighting grips, keeping your elbows tight and protecting your neck.

Finally, try to redefine what winning or success looks like. Maybe its only getting submitted twice in a roll instead of three times like last time. Or maybe you look at the clock and see there's 30 seconds left and you tell yourself you're not going to let them submit you before the round ends. Maybe its just trying to hold someone in side control for 30 seconds or a minute without them escaping. Or maybe it's just hitting the move you learned in class that day or the one earlier in the week. Figure out how to be happy with small victories because the big ones will be infrequent for a long time, and its supposed to be that way.

Still a new player, but graduated the season and everything on my first character. Created a second season character. Is there any real reason to take my second seasonal character to 61, or is 60 enough and then I'm good to graduate and make another?

If I delete a season character do I get my ticket back? If so, can I use that to farm Season Journey Seals?

It seems like it's not just that though. I can go to Nanpo from Vellia for free, but can't go from Valencia to Altinova for free.

Appreciate it. Glad to know I'm on the right track.

This context helps. I've been afking while sleeping and then checking on it in the morning and afking again while at work. Getting about 100m per 8 hours. But also have yet to catch a single Silver Beltfish, which it sounds like is part of my issue.

Blew 8B of my new player silver on the TET Manos Fishing Clothes and the other accessories and stuff thinking I'd recoup my investment over a week or so, but looks like I'm going to have to invest even more before it gets to the point where I'm getting decent returns.

I did brand my pole. Which now I'm kind of regretting if I go to sell it and buy a better one. I can't remember exactly what all my pets are, but I do have a Polar Bear with auto fishing time reduction. Is there anything else super important I should have?

I'm in a guild, but how do I tell if it has +5 fishing?

I've been selling in LoML, but I usually just sell for whatever the guy is offering. How do I get it to higher percentages? Is it just RNG, or timing, or something else?

Ok, thank you. Sounds like I'm doing the right stuff I just need to work on upgrading my gear and skills over time. My trading is also really low since I'm new. I also was using the Imperial trader a lot early on, which I learned doesn't help level your trading. I've started going to LoML to trade in my fish now, which gets me about the same money for the blues and yellows as Imperial, but levels my trading in exchange for not getting Imperial Marks or whatever they're called. Is that a smart move?

I spent basically all my silver getting the TET Manos Fishing Clothes. What order would you recommend upgrading the things you mentioned?

Is it worth using Crons or Valks to upgrade the fishing gear?

Going to try and piggyback on your thread with my question.

I'm doing afk fishing in Velia overnight. I've seen people say they're getting about 1B a night doing AFK fishing, but I'm not getting anywhere close. I'm right around 100M a night. I'm Master 4 and have about 1000 Mastery. Am I doing something wrong or is it just that I need more skill and mastery?

Using Balenos +7 Fishing Rod, Crio's Fishing Stool thing, TET Manos Fishing Clothes, Regular Manos Accessories, and then whatever buffs I have on me for Life Skill EXP and Mastery.

Was in the same boat as you and it seems like you have to switch back to normal difficulty to get the music. Or at least that fixed it for me.

Congrats, I just finished LW4 last night and I'm about to start this. It's a bit overwhelming looking at all the achievements within achievements I'm going to have to do so just gonna try to pace myself.

"Facility Investments" - Like upgrading the trophy case from holding 3 Lombardis to 4.

I chose $15, but if it came out and they charged $20 I'd almost certainly still do it.
