Lvl 13 Nightblade LOOKING FOR DROPS

justinamelie
So here I am, in Auridon, getting worthless rewards that have nothing to do with my class. Should I even bother with trying to get drops at such a low level? If I should, where do I find anything decent / worthwhile? Just repeating dungeons?

Sorry for the derpy question.

    Drops are all RNG. Whether they help you or not depends on how you look at them.

    1. Equipment to use, pretty self explanatory, but nothing you can plan on.
    2. Source of Gold, which means pretty much Vendoring everything you get to a game merchant (as opposed to Guild Stores)
    3. Source of Crafting Mats or Inspiration by Deconstructing the items

    Outside of Warlock stuff, 99% of what you get during leveling is mostly vendor trash. Some Dropped set items and traited items have some worth to sell in the Guild Stores/Kiosks.

    The best way to get what you want, as far as equipment goes, is to kill more mobs. Or, decon what you get and learn crafting. Or, vendor what you get and pay a crafter to make it for you.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Crafting is worthwhile, much more worthwhile if you just want stuff for yourself. Depending on your build, you won't be able to/want to use 50% or more of the drops your level. Especially because you're likely leveling so fast many pieces are only good for decon (bind on equip) after you outgrow them.

    Dumb question but where do I find mobs? :neutral:

    Mobs = enemies, usually groups of enemies.

    Mobs as a term is not accurate. Any NPC that is aggressive to you, or you can kill outside of the Justice System, is a Mob. Even if it is one.

    As for finding these mobs, just be outside of a city or in a dungeon/delve, you will find them, or they will find you. Or take some quests, they will send you to places that have Mobs to kill.

    Mob

    An AI controlled monster. ‘Mob’ originally comes from the MUD era, where it was short for ‘mobile’, to differentiate monsters that would patrol a set of rooms as opposed to monsters which would stay in one place until killed.
    Everyone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.

    I'm just gonna keep grinding / leveling / etc
