Finishing just a total of 6 Daily Endeavours on two accounts took me over 4,5 hours today. Got my 90 seals...yay. Calling it a day for now.

For me, if endeavors are too troublesome, I honestly just dont bother anymore.

1 alchemy master writ, and about 15 minutes in Orcrest will knock out 3 of those endeavors jiffy spiffy.

Only if you already have an alchemy master writ and an offensive scibed skill in the first place.

On My EU account I was done in about half an hour, most of which was spend on waiting for blobs to respawn in the overcrowded Tsofeer Cavern, and doing 2 delve quest along the way.

On my much newer NA account it took significantly longer: about 4 hours.

I had no alchemy master writs left there, just 2 provisioning ones; 1 for Senche-Tiger Single Malt and one for Orzorga's Smoked Bear Haunch. My fledgling master crafter had neither recipe. First I tried to buy the one for Malt. I checked TTC and visited all vendors in order of listed price. Turned out all recipes were gone, except the one offered for 95.000 gold, for which I suggested the seller to find a creative storage space cause I was not going to take it of his hands for that kind of money.

So on to the Bear Haunch. I knew I had to do 4 quests to get it. So I had a little d-tour to let my crafter make and equip an offensive scribed skill to work on the 40 enemies endeavour along the way. (Being a healer, he had none yet.) After that, I did the 4 quest for Orzorga. No difficulties, just time consuming since I did not know a single wayshrine in Wrothgar yet. Besides I got hit with a particularly sticky stuck-in-combat-bug, so even when I discovered one, I had to wait at least a minute before I could use it, every single time.

Then the crafting of the meal. I had 3 perfect roe’s more then enough if you have the Chef passive all levelled. I hadn’t. So before I could craft the meals, I had to do 2 public dungeon group events and collect some skyshards. I already had a mages guild quest in Rulanyil’s fall, so I went there first. Big mistake, I also knew very few wayshrines in Greenshade and cross-country riding there is a pain in the ass with all the random walls and crevasses. At least, when I finally got there, I got the 40 enemies endeavor done while collecting the shard and doing the group event.

I chose Orcrest as the next dungeon, because it contains amorphous foes. Fought my way to the sewers to find all of them dead. Waited for respawn, started killing the 4 or 5 on the left. Someone else came in, killed all the ones on the right. We both waited for respawn again. Somehow took another 10 to 12 dead blobs to count as 5 Amorphous Foes defeated, but finally, that’s another endeavor done.

Then I just had to fight my way all the way to the other end of Orcrest, defeat the groupboss, get the skyshard, level up my Chef passive, get my ass to a cooking fire, and deliver the package to Rolis Hlaalu.

I was planning to work on a new character today, my first Sorcerer on NA, but I think instead I’ll have lunch and a shower now, and maybe go for a walk.

Many thanks to the developers for creating this ... and perhaps also to the marketing team for foregoing the "usual" visual effects guidelines.
First, I'd like to express my sincere gratitude for the mammoth mount.
Especially for the fact that this mount doesn't have any "bling-bing" or "thunder and lightning" effects, so summoning it won't make me blind or deaf.
Although I fear there will be a more expensive „Bling-Bling-Thunder-and-Lightning“-Edition later on.
And thanks also for the fact that the mount doesn't wear any ridiculous helmet or other ugly headgear.
So, I forgive you that the mammoth is a bit small... and no, I don't want to use the lich transformation every time to summon a slightly larger version of the mammoth

I need the eggs...

another spot a friend told me about 8D the tutorial zones also have TONS of gear just laying around. would not have helped me on my main account, but i also did not need it on my main account. on the alt account, i have the space to make a new character to take advantage ^.^

Honestly, I am disgusted over disability claims that often make appearance on forums or reddit etc. Using someone's state to prove some kind of point is ridiculous and it happens so, so, so often.

This is wildly ableist.

The actual fact is that difficulty is subjective. And that people who struggle with disabilities and their loved ones are not wrong or "disgusting" for raising awareness of their experiences with the game. Many of the various accessibility options that video games utilize come from people discussing those experiences.

The only "ableist" thing there is claiming disability dictates your ability to perform, which is not always the case. I've played enough with quite a few people with different conditions and saw enough claims on forums that the game is impossible with those, which isn't the case and depends on other factors rather than their disability alone being the crucial factor. The person stated pretty clearly they're against using other's conditions as form of proof, not disabled people's experiences, so there's no need for an attack.

No. It is not "ableist" to claim disability impacts one's own ability to perform. Everyone experiences disability different. There are different levels of impairment. There are different experiences with the same impairment. This idea that because you met one disabled person that had no problem means another is lying when they say they do is actually ableism.

A disabled person's feedback is not "disgusting" because it goes against the popular opinion that something is easy for able bodied people.

Twisting my words to prove.... not existing point. Just like manufacturing game experience to gaslit people to believe that game is hard. Please read once again my statement without prejudice. Also it is nice to see you relfect on calling some "abelist" - as your original comment was edited.

My post touched upon accessibity options, making game for wide range of community etc. I feel like one side of this conversation cannot come up with actual well thought answers. Just one post form me and I ended up being gastlit, called disrespectful and abelist. Is this how conversation should go?

My original comment was edited for clarity and still uses the word ableist. There is that "manufacturing," accusation again. It's the same one I was responding to with my post. People are not lying just because they don't have the same experience as you or anyone else. There are factually people who struggle with Overland. Some of those people struggle specifically due to things like age and disability. The devs have the play date to prove these people exist and have already hard confirmed that there are people already challenged by overland.

Their existence is an actual fact. False accusations that people are lying when they talk about the way disability impacts their ability to perform because it doesn't fit the experiences of able-bodied people is ableism. It is an awful argument. You can't claim people are "manufacturing," their experiences and call for civility in the same breath.

I'd much rather have a better conversation. But, I'm not going to sit back and let people I love have their experiences invalidated by others because it doesn't fit into the idea that overland is easy. There are disabled people in my family that struggled with video games in general, not just overland. I used to play this game with one of them. His disability harmed his performance. He no longer plays this game.

Play the game on SteamOS when it gets out.
