Also for your low level foraging, apples spawn around Serbule along with whatever the lowest level flowers are. You'll be able to pick the grapes after a bit. Then I think you'll have to move on to harvesting in Eltibule. Then Sun Vale, though the guava stage is awkward now, it seems like their spawns were nerfed to hell from when I leveled my other character.

To be more specific, the NW quadrant of Serbule is your best place for early foraging. Fuckloads of spawns and some decent mobs to grind on too if you want to get close enough.

True, although apples can spawn pretty much anywhere on the map. Once their spawns were increased a while back I was seeing them everywhere, including on the way to the Crypt.

And I always forget that harvesting lumber raises foraging too, since I can't harvest lumber. :downs:

So I had kind of a bad first impression of this game when the race descriptions included sexual proclivities for the elves...

...Then I got in game and shamed a skeleton to death and then did an autopsy that confirmed said shaming. I then died to a giant spider and got a fear of cows from said death.

This game is kind of OK for being in development.

Look Professor, a destruct switch!


The elven sexual proclivities thing is pretty full into outrageous and silly territory. There's a sign in one area that an elf put up to ask other elves to please stop having sex in the communal bath during the day because it makes the humans uncomfortable. Another elven pair discuss how one of them saw a human naked and that it's totally true that humans only have one penis and how weird it is.

The real world reason for the elves is pretty funny too. Citan did a blog post about it somewhere, but basically when the game was made entirely out of extra-cheap premade poo poo all he could find for elf placeholders was fairly normal elf dudes and then half-naked elf women in thongs and high heels. He said to himself "okay this is sexist and stupid, I can't just roll with this like it's normal."

So he decided if there were gonna be sexy elves, they'd ALL be that way and he would take them completely seriously. As much as anything in this game is taken seriously, anyway.

Now the elf dudes are the half naked ones inviting player characters to leather parties and two fully dressed elven women hang out in front of the inn gossiping about how sexually inadequate human men are. :laffo: So basically Citan is good people and the whole thing is purposely not doing the kind of neckbeard crap you expect when you hear "the elves have sex all the time."

Kill skeletons to get dirt, there is a pond in one if the side paths you can take bottles to to get water, everything else is either ground spawn or in a chest.

Don't go into the hidden map path without a friend unless you like taking dirt naps. Skeleton mages are rough.

If you're high enough level to go into the mushroom cave, you can farm a ton of dirt there in short order. All the mushrooms and tenders have something like a 1:2 chance to drop dirt in addition to other random things. Take a shovel. If you stand in the first intersection, you don't even have to move. You'll have tenders and brain bugs path up to you until you're sick of it. Loot a mob and bury it and before you know it, you'll have another one chewing on your rear end begging to die and give you dirt.

I was pleasantly surprised by how support works. You select someone in your party list to heal them, and using any offensive power automatically targets the nearest enemy. Given the interface, playing mentalist could have been utterly awful but it's actually pretty smooth.

If anyone wants to do lowbie dungeons I'm the guy with a giant head dancing to tuba music in Serbule.

I'm looking for a casual MMO where I can hop on, slay some poo poo, then hop off for awhile, not grind 100x for a lovely sheild fo gorgon where I need to kill 100 spiders and hope that they drop 50 spider eggs to take ot the emerald former so they can make the gem I need at a 50% chance.

I want to log on, kill poo poo, get better, kill poo poo.. then log off, then later on log on and kill poo poo. etc

It's a known issue for some accounts made a while back apparently. I contacted Gorgons support email, they reset my password and I got back in. It counts as having been started on the 2nd of October but I still have my character which is the important part.

Well there are raptors in the sewers, and you can loot Sewer Chicken, which is raw chicken that spawns. There's also an enemy called Baby Slime down there, and venom spiders. Its fantastic.

No more server issues, a new desert zone with new mobs and a new dungeon, some other new new dungeons, lv 60 to a lot of skill trees with more on the way, other stuff to do.

Still a charming little game, usually 30-100 people on now.
