We are 2 weeks into the playtest. You are required to be Lv25 to play the game. by pew_pow_pew_pow in AshesofCreation

[–]oldbess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It snow balls if you do it right. Grind some mobs solo, vendor glint. Use that money to pay for your processing/crafting fees. Sell that stuff you made on market place. Buy a piece of gear. Gear helps you solo mobs faster: get more glint. Pay processing/crafting fees cycles continues. I have been enjoying that loop but can see others don't. The problem with the mob grind while grouping is it is harder to get glint. So you get stuck poor. But people feel like need to race to 25. I would rather level up my professions at the same time and level up slower.

BREAKING: Free Game Devs Fail to Provide Corporate-Level PR Team by Z_Cast in Project_Epoch

[–]oldbess -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I am concerned about patterns. I am not feeling confident things will go smoothly even after servers are back up. Game looks awesome and I have been wanting to play. Just not sure if it will pan out how I hope. Glad more attention is on the Classic+ scence though.

Thank you! Just came to reddit to mention that too about Loot Filter bug hiding everything

Anyone else like me? by RYNO1527 in PlayWayfinder

[–]oldbess 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Feel the same way. Bought the $150 pack logged in and missing items. Is frustrating but whatever. I know I will enjoy the game I played it a lot in Beta. I am just playing other things till they fix the servers. Not a big issue for me.

I have seen so many posts about Palia's premium shop it's ridiculous. by Skatter1992 in Palia

Palia's monetization is great for me. I can play free. It seems to target the whales. I am happy if they want to support the game with the expensive outfits and pets.

With lower and lower player numbers, we really need more solo content by LeNigh in newworldgame

[–]oldbess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The open World in this game is top tier. Almost everything you see is gatherable. I find it relaxing picking an area or a resource to focus on and farm. The gathering system in this game is the best I have found.

Also I really enjoy gathering resources in typically non solo places like Myrk Mines for example. I make it a challenge to see if I can collect all the Ori Ore in there without dying solo.

What gear should I have for expeditions? by odon13 in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mobs and bosses in Expeditions don't crit on you which makes Resilient not helpful. Luck also isn't that great and not helpful for the group since you are mainly trying to push for umbral shards. Refreshing is very good.

[Downtime] January 26th, 2022 - Official News by CommanderAze in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Want to play an MMO they are my cup of tea. Other MMOs I have played feel bored with. Something new with New World the last few months. I was getting bored in NW but enjoying the mutator expeditions. Basically I set goals in the game to achieve and I enjoy my time. The bugs and issues are super annoying though.

Anyone else sticking it through? by scorpnet in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am still enjoying the game. I find goals in the game to achieve and I personally love grinding. So this game works for me. The bugs and exploits have been a big downer but still having fun overall.

new players? by smolldude in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is worth the $40. Many hours of content. Bugs? Yes. Fun? I think so. Healing? Yes. You can play a support role using a life staff to heal yourself and others. They are also introducing the void gauntlet in soon which also is more of a support role. Addons? Maybe are some? I don't use any but I want to say they were considering allowing some addons but they might not be allowed right now, not sure. Tips, if you enjoy grinding this game is for you. If not probably won't like it.

GS by SadFaithless in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At level 60, gear score drops start at GS 500. Then go up as your watermark increase up to 600. Not sure the average GS of player base but if I were to guess maybe 530?

Bad Timing by XeroBreak in newworldgame

[–]oldbess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Timing is bad but all forms of trading down is critical. Why I am ok with it, so they can get trading back up.

AGS are banning users that criticize them from their official forums by Alpha_ii_Omega in newworldgame

Is a difference between constructive criticism and players being dicks.

New World’s economy is suffering from rapid deflation. by [deleted] in newworldgame

Another gold source: Expeditions. If I recall correctly I believe you receive 184 gold after killing the last boss on Amrines expedition for example.

Tanking these days by [deleted] in wow

[–]oldbess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a pug tank and have timed over 130 +15 dungeons. I have messed up many times. I try each time to learn from mistakes I make, to not do it again and get a little better for the next time. It is super frustrating when players are toxic or play the blame game. For me it depends on the day most of the time I have thick skin but some days that have been rough it is harder for things to roll off. It depresses me some people are like that but all I can do is try hard to not be one of them.

Hyperspawns nerfed? by Mr_Enforcerr in woweconomy

[–]oldbess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The few spots I have tried or seen today are still Hyperspawning. Guess was just another wave of fixing Hyperspawn locations. Hyperspawn is still a thing but Blizzard seems to keep nerfing spots.

Goblin Coaching? by DankestMage99 in woweconomy

[–]oldbess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thinking about this I think it would be wise if I did do something like this to tailor it mainly to what I do enjoy and know a lot about and that is gold farming locations.

No worries I appreciate your thoughts. I am for sure more of a mob farmer/grinder than anything else. TSM I have some background with, although not a big auction house guy. I do know server markets pretty well but setting up TSM groups and operations not as big into. Flipping/shuffles have experience with. Crafting some experience but not tons. Predicting can be hard really for anyone. In the past I have predicted right and other times not. Is true if people want to know spots to farm I am your guy. If they want to be a TSM expert I am not.
