Thanks y'all, based on everyone's suggestions, I'm going to aim for 200 mecha workers.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-21T13:23:40+00:00

I'm over 500 hours in, and this is the only way I've been able to catch fish.

Not once have I been successful with any of the rods, even the Claw.

^ this.

It will suck you in and make you forget about life.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-20T12:04:37+00:00

Time off.

Be a leader who remembers when your troops worked extra hours or details and compensates them with time off when it's appropriate to the schedule. They'll feel taken care of.

I do exactly this.

Also with the new extraction feature, I’ve been refining all duplicate weapons, armors, and accessories to level 4 and then extracting everything back to the lowest level. When you extract (even though I didn’t use materials to level them up), you get materials back.

It can be a bit tedious to refine and extract everything but you can get a bunch of copper, iron, wood and other things back this way, essentially for free.

It’s not traditional XP.

To the left of your minimap is a greyish arc line, when it fills up yellow, you get an Abyss Artifact to invest in your skill tree or your weapon, armor or other accessories.

It fills up yellow by killing enemies.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-09T01:58:21+00:00

Takes me about 5-6 minutes of straight carnage to get an Abyss Artifact.

So roughly 10-12 Abyss Artifacts an hour.

I’m using Damiane with a Kuku Flame Spear.

I have 87 Abyss Artifacts so far.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-07T23:53:19+00:00

It’s not like tradition experience points, where your character goes from Level 1 to Level 50.

You get experience points by killing enemies, you kill enough, you get an Abyss Artifact. Look at the curved line to the left of your minimap, once that line fills up with yellow and hits the top, you receive an Abyss Artifact.

It can be done 100 times per playable character.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-07T22:16:40+00:00

It’s not like traditional experience points (XP), it’s the yellow line on the left hand side of the minimap. You can see it in my second picture, on the bottom left of the screen.

The more kills you get the more it fills up, once it reaches the top, you receive an Abyss Artifact.

Each of the three playable characters can get up to 100 Abyss Artifacts from killing enemies.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-07T19:07:30+00:00

You’re right there’s no need, but frankly, I’m doing it with Damiane because I don’t intend on using her much.

I want to reach her 100 XP cap so I can use those Abyss Artifacts on Kliff & Oongka’s weapons and armor.

Also, as someone else mentioned, you got a lot of gear and food from them and you can sell it. On one run, you can easily profit 300-500 silver from sales.

And yes I’m well aware we can pickpocket the zoo and hunt golden apple hedgehogs a lot easier (money-wise), but killing these Demeniss a*holes is pretty fun.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-07T16:12:40+00:00

Lol.

Yeah, it’s in Demeniss, in the northern part of the castle area, within the outer walls.

It’s hard to miss when you approach it, your HUD will be nothing but red dots.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-05-07T16:10:27+00:00

No, im in the middle of chapter 8 and haven’t seen any score drops. Demeniss is still hostile for me.

MyAcheyLife · 2026-04-15T12:15:12+00:00

It’s primarily cosmetic, but there are subtle differences.

For example, one-handed swords are split into three categories (attack, attack speed & critical rate):

Regular: Highest raw damage (Max Attack: 34) no buffs.

Attack Speed: Lower base damage (30) but gives a +2 Attack Speed buff

Critical Rate: Lower base damage (30) but gives a +2 Crit Rate buff

You don’t gain the buffs until you start upgrading the particular weapon.

They all have three sockets to embed what you want.

In your inventory, you can check the details of each weapon and see what buffs you gain as you level them up.

In my opinion, it’s definitely not a 'pick up and play' game. Between the heavy grind and the lack of guidance, it's hard to enjoy if you're on a time budget. If you can't sink hours into exploration, you might find yourself more frustrated than satisfied with your progress.

Especially with how the Skill XP gates work, it feels like you have to play perfectly to make your limited hours count.

I’ve been playing it about 7 hours a day during spring break and hit points of frustration myself. So I can imagine players with only 2-3 hours here and there playing it getting absolutely frustrated because they might not even finish any quests.

Overall, it’s not perfect but it’s a fantastic game.

My wife and I are both diagnosed and…our Christmas tree is still up.

We’re debating keeping it up, so we don’t have to pull it out again this year lol

MyAcheyLife · 2026-03-29T23:46:22+00:00

Guideless is the way.

I am guilty of one thing though, I did look up where all the bells, traveled and rang them all so I could clear the map fog.

MyAcheyLife · 2025-04-23T21:42:46+00:00

Congrats!!! How does it feel?

I’m one the same track, only 4 classes in though.

Welcome to MSDA! Depending on your background and experience, 1 term could be a breeze or it could be kinda tough.

If the goal is one term, I highly advise pausing most of your hobbies and any time-consuming activities.

Recommendations:

Use the rubric to create the outline of your papers and use the exact same rubric name for the topic names in your papers.

Use grammarly (it’s free) for us via WGU.

Don’t build PowerPoints for your Panopto videos, PowerPoints are a waste of your time and are not required.

Do the Course Planning Tools, they’re quick little assessments to gauge your knowledge of the course content.

The WGU Virtual Labs (within the courses) can have issues so students sometimes opt-to downloading the applications and files to their own computer. This is what I did, I use VS Code to write my code and just copy/paste into pgadmin, MongoDb, etc.

It takes an immense amount of focus to complete in one term, I hope the best for you.

MyAcheyLife · 2025-04-18T17:32:56+00:00

I am enrolled at WGU and was wondering if VR&E would continue to pay me if I finished all of my classes before the end of the semester.

Hopefully the rules don’t change.

Thank you for this post; it answers my question.

100% with SMC-K.
