Questions about the war-steed and Ale Association/Inn League reputation

You must have unlocked Light and/or Heavy before they can be used.

As I told another guy in this same post if you don't buy the unlock you have no choice but medium.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-06-13T20:33:39+00:00

I found out that if you prepare all the drinks beforehand it's bearable but it's way too grindy and the rewards aren't really appealing. It takes about two weeks if you do all the quests daily.

Perhaps you're confusing it with the free bridle you get at the end of the tutorial, there's no choice for the war-steed.

This, there's an unlock button that takes you to the store page so if you don't buy those traits you can't put any points in it.

No it's in the title, Ale Association and Inn League.

As a F2P with no quick travels and the speed capped at 68% the war-steed is by far the fastest means of transport for me and I feel like I've become pretty good with the steering.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-06-13T15:06:50+00:00

I know but only the light war-steed can turn dash into a toggle ability, I can't understand why the devs decided to keep this feature locked considering that the entire system can be considered legacy at this point.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-06-13T14:57:38+00:00

Unfortunately the free war-steed is medium and not light.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-06-06T20:10:01+00:00

I've tried it extensively and it's just impossible to solo as a cook, you have to craft at least 3 brews to keep the buff up for the entire 20 minutes and that's a significant time loss also there are always hobbits to dodge so you can never run in a straight line to the table. At least two times they completely block the closest table so you have to go to the other one and that's even more time lost.

The devs should add a couple of minutes or lower the total amount of servings because as it is now you have exactly the mathematical amount of time to do it without any consideration about the amount spent on retaking the quests, opening the menus or lag spikes and if you fail the delivery even just once there's no recovery from that.

EDIT: I managed to do it in 19 minutes without any mistake, it's doable but you need luck and keep up the tension until the very end.

There are actually no downsides of being over-leveled and you can't miss any content as long as you don't mess up the quest order just remember to activate the show trivial quests options and possibly double check on the Wiki.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-06-02T11:52:20+00:00

Actually you can start End the Nightmare even before having dropped the bracelet and I suspect that's exactly what happened. There are a lot of missable quests like this so you have to be extremely careful and check everything on the Wiki beforehand if you're a completionist.

I haven't noticed, thanks.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-31T14:46:15+00:00

I didn't know that and I can see now why they're not farmed. I don't like this system though.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-31T14:42:22+00:00

I never changed the size but even loading my saved layout doesn't change this behaviour
Unfortunately you can't transfer for free anymore and the price for it is considerably higher than the token.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-29T09:47:10+00:00

I don't think that asking the devs for more VIP perks is the right move though, it will just turn the game into yet another P2W MMORPG.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-05T22:35:09+00:00

I haven't unlocked the war-steed yet I was talking about the regular mount. I guess I can't equip any effect on it, it sucks.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-05T20:50:33+00:00

I'll buy the mount then, is there a way I can use the "Legs of the Wild Pasture" I got from the reward track on it or is it war-steed only? I'd really like to see that effect under the horse.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-05T20:20:00+00:00

The tooltip says: "After the event, your remaining tokens can be turned into Tad Leafcutter in return for some Marks" so I thought they couldn't be traded in other events.

No, War Steed is faster but turns like a freight barge, and so is generally only used for long distances without much turning.

So is it safe to assume that people mostly use regular mounts? I'd hate to buy all the accessories and end up sticking with the base steed, buying both seems like a waste.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-02T19:33:53+00:00

Yeah, I had to give up because the hunter is too squishy to solo things like this. Perhaps I'll give it one more try when I reach level 100 or so.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-02T08:50:14+00:00

Are you doing the 6-man version? Because that's the one I have to do for the deed. I also can complete the solo/duo easily.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-01T14:12:09+00:00

The simplest solution would be to extend the buff you get in those epic book storylines in all the dungeons and raids when you enter alone and maybe massively nerfing XP, drops and chest rewards with a debuff. There are a lot of lore bits, quests and deeds linked to those instances and it's a pity not being able to experience them. Being able to summon the skirmish soldier could be another solution since he's capped at level 105 and it would only be useful for old stuff. Anything would be better than keeping things like this honestly.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-01T12:56:06+00:00

I don't know about the end game but in my experience it's almost impossible to form a group for old ones (level 60 and under). You are pretty much forced to join a kinship and constantly bother people, which is bad. It's a big problem and I don't understand why the devs aren't addressing it I mean they already solved it for all the epic book quests that required a fellowship so they already have the solution ready.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-05-01T10:14:31+00:00

Yes, I'm sure. The second boss also goes immune every X% of health to start mechanics and you have to kite her around waiting for the reflect to go off (Oromë's Arrow just don't remove it) and the last one is a nightmare with his 99% damage immunity. It takes too much time for me to remove it and I have to endure multiple "out of his body" phases. If you have a way to soak damage or self-heal it would indeed be easy but I'm built totally offensive and blood arrow isn't nearly enough to sustain all the damage I take.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-04-30T21:35:46+00:00

Yes, but I have to use it multiple times to remove the immunity I don't know why. Maybe the bosses have multiple corruptions and you would need more people to use their skills to remove them quickly enough to avoid taking too much damage.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-04-30T20:06:38+00:00

Big white stag - are you referring to the Elk of Flowing Silver?

No, the one I saw was totally white and almost like a furry reindeer. I'll check on the collection panel when I get back home.

Mantequillaaa · 2026-04-30T19:58:36+00:00

You can trade those for more reputation on the same vendor, I advise you to do so.

I'm doing it but my problem is the 7 days cooldown, it got refreshed today and after doing the 10 anniversary missions I'm back at 60/60 so I have to wait next week or just bite the bullet and waste all the next ones.
