I think I had 70k at one point last week from all the holiday rewards. I miss all that stamina.


Fingers crossed the community center succeeds today. I’ve found 3 more Gold Feathers since complaining about it and spent so much time exploring. I’m not holding out hope though.

I'm kind of amused that Fishing lagged behind my other skills for quite some time, and getting it from 50 to 60 was like pulling teeth, but now it's going to be my first 99 with ease from spamming thousands of nets on Large Island for silver. (Farming 82, Crafting 86, Exploring 78 so far.)

Jill's corn fetish continues to multiply, as does Captain Thomas's "give me a shitton of everything growable" obsession. 300 Bacon will take a couple more days of pig-stuffing to enable.

Any other of the early pets particularly useful? I have Cobalt Tarantula, Banded Armadillo (which is tempting for Magna Quartz generation) Emperor Penguin and Pet Rock available.

Get your Python to six, you'll need the Skull Coins for Pirate's Cove. Save Pet Rock till last and you want something to spend coin on.

If I can ever get all my gold feathers my fishing 78 may catch up to my crafting 90. It should easily beat farming 82 and exploring 76. I don’t even think my luck is that bad, it’s just a lot of exploring on my budget still. Whispering Creek is going to get unlocked before the Island for sure now.

There has been an event for every holiday or festive period or anniversary or game milestone, so that one is on you my dude.

Remember that this event is a good opportunity to buy the 1b crop row, which will give you 1.15b farming xp. Might push you close to 99, probably enable a higher crop for grape juice too.

Wanted to send you gold feathers but they require farming 99 to receive.

Definitely a slow day here. My two main questlines are waiting for tomorrow for bacon to render, so it's corn and hops and fish all around. Maybe I'll finally pound out all those miscellaneous veggies for Captain Thomas.

My Python will hit level 6 today, which is something.

Yes I’m patiently waiting for the new fishing zone quest tomorrow so not really doing much other that saving up large nets for now. I suppose I might work on that 4th Judland quest if I can be arsed.

Jim's now a Blind Cave Salamander!


Is there a real strategy that will get me more soap? I've heard throwing three new fully-equipped raptors into fightclub would get me more but I haven't tested. As it stands, I have a ton of unused claws because it sounded like making a mega-raptor just ends up with harder fights and less soap?

Also I'm at Tower Level 63 with 700AK, so just enough to get the improved nets in time for the new zone.... Too bad I need like 25b silver to do so.

Hey that's ~12 coins a day, so you might finish the quest during the event

Appreciate the thought, but the community center came through for me yesterday. Good info on the crop row XP, I’m nearly to another 1b and was trying to decide what to spend it on. I have this and pets to level, but I should be able to crank out another couple to get them all in a week I’d guess.

I'd you have 1b just lying around, getting the kitchen before farming 99 is a good chunk of xp - not as useful as the crop row or even raptor pen, but better than waiting till you're 99 and voiding the xp.

Looks like it's going to be straight to live.

FWIW I also missed the signs for a Christmas event, but I've been hoarding both OJ and LNs out of sheer laziness. Score one for procrastination, I guess?

The Large Net x10 upgrade is live now too.

I'm hoping the quest for the new fishing zone isn't too harsh but it probably is.

Maybe. I need to grind out Herbs first to even get that far, which are very Gold Leafy in their drop rate.

I burned several hundred k stamina yesterday (and I am at 150k stored with 0 oj left.) Also hit several hundred Arnold Palmers. Thankfully I'm at max inventory large nets, burning them as I make them to prevent voiding. Hopefully it's not super dumb.

Got 4 raptor eggs yesterday. Plus 2 more from a quest. 0 claws.

gently caress Herbs. Tiny drop rates and you need so many of them at once.

It'll get added to your Exchange but you probably have enough banked EXP for it not to ever matter.

Xerol
Jan 13, 2007


At my current rate, if I didn't get any more XP starting today, I'd use up my banked XP by 2073. Which is why I'm concerned that maybe somewhere down the line there's going to be another use for it because it's something everyone is accumulating.

At this rate you're talking about waiting 24 hours, which is effectively 0 so why not?
