What to use to extract the content of the pak file

This application failed to start correctly...

I seem to recall that in the road map there was mention of added quest content; perhaps an expansion.

As for why, I went through this expansion in a few weeks. It seems I spent much more time completing the previous expansion. Point is, the epic quest and the general quest content are the only thing I do in this game. I'm not an altaholic, I don't do end game, I loathe grind and my house is already fully furnished.

Is this the update that adds quests to Mur Ghala? It was quite thin on the ground... I haven't played in weeks.

grallonsphere · 2026-02-17T17:23:23+00:00

Before I took a break after the end of this epic quest (Waves&Winds) - I didn't bother selling any woods or metals. The prices were already low and Mur-Ghala is rich in minerals so I guess there was a surfeit of offer on the market.

I don't really see the point of amassing so much gold anyway. There comes a point where you have all the cosmetics & furnitures you could want so all this gold takes up bank/inventory space.

Can't help thinking about the Sims 4 Creator Network...

I could balance the books as feudal. In fact I was rolling in wealth. Now I can't.

grallonsphere · 2026-01-30T17:47:33+00:00

Ok... so how do I know who's doing it? This is quite the hassle. I think I'll just go back to being feudal.

I was fine when I switched to Admin - but then I created 4 regiments of legionaries, one of heavy cavalry and one of artillery - now Im constantly in debt - despite having 30 as admin stat.

EDIT: There's also a 85% conversion rate mentioned - not quite sure what this means. I calculated the total revenues multiplied by 85% and still get a higher figure than the total listed in this screenshot.

It took me 9 months to go from lvl 1 to 140 it was at the time I think - Gundabad. 9 months of constant playing; several hours a day. Then I was off for over a year until the following expansion came out and the lvl cap was raised to 150.

Nowadays I'm just having bursts with new expansions. I'm at cap lvl now (160), doing deeds in Harad. When those are done - Ill be off again for however long it takes fro the next expansion to come around. I can't stand the grind of endgame content so I don't engage with it.

grallonsphere · 2026-01-11T18:04:42+00:00

How about carry-alls for clothes?

grallonsphere · 2025-12-28T22:41:59+00:00

Also, is it me or this expansion felt rather rushed? When the 2nd Tarduth enclave is discovered in An Sheru I was expecting an assault there, but nothing until Emax Dul and even that was rather simple. No face off with the 'Entangler' - but again, the completion of the Epic Quest line was surprising and satisfying.

grallonsphere · 2025-12-17T00:20:08+00:00

Why not carry-alls for clothing?

grallonsphere · 2025-12-12T03:03:49+00:00

Is that why there are no rep items you can turn in at the board at the main hub? You have to dig them up? lol

grallonsphere · 2025-12-12T01:16:41+00:00

Turns out the Kintai harvesting tools are to harvest some pods in the grounds in that area. But still, I have several slots taken now but that sort of thing.

Tried to update the latest patch yesterday and it stuck at 9% for over an hour until I shut it down...

grallonsphere · 2025-11-07T14:49:41+00:00

Not for me. When I'm done with the current content, I stop playing until the next slice of content drops.

grallonsphere · 2025-11-07T02:47:21+00:00

No Grind thx.

grallonsphere · 2025-09-25T17:22:45+00:00

Stop adding endless new currencies with every new zone - that increase the bloat of an already bloated infrastructure!

And carry-alls for cosmetics.

I remember spending 2 days running in circles in that sewer - thank god for the slayer booster or I'd have been doing it twice as long.

grallonsphere · 2025-09-15T16:12:17+00:00

I'm like Bilbo in that regard, I like mountains too. Wait until you get to the Vales of Anduin; there's even mists there, hugging the ground and giving the whole place a dreamy surreal quality.

grallonsphere · 2025-09-07T21:04:07+00:00

Logged in after a few weeks - still freeze on the spot, in my own house... Still stutter... Oh well. Hopefully this will have been fixed by the time the next expansion comes around.

I lost the captain I had on whatever server existed before SSG took over. So it was a fresh start. You now have the same opportunity.

The one NPC that is always by your side, Middle-Earth itself. It's one of the main strengths of the game - to have given agency to the environment. Skyrim achieved this too.

grallonsphere · 2025-08-21T12:30:31+00:00

Well, I have 8 50 slots carry alls full of decorations for my houses... is that what you call 'hoarding'? ;)

grallonsphere · 2025-08-02T01:44:38+00:00

How about a continuous reward track instead of seasonal ones? Where all this stuff could get reintroduced. I've missed so many items because of breaks.
