What comes after rats....
« on: June 11, 2005, 07:08:06 am »
Hello all,

Now, I\'ve done a search for this information, but to no avail, so....

Now that I\'m vaguely profficient at killing rats, and have leveled up a little in my sword skills, what should I tackle next? Gobbles? Tefsungs (I\'ve no idea what these are, but people have mentioned them in their posts)? Rogues?

Okay then, I\'ll let you all commence eye-rolling at the daft questions of a newbie :)

Thanks, Pale

Unfortunatly this is a bit of a sore point. You think you are ready to ween yourself off rats? Think again. You may be able to kill gobbles. Not that it is worth it. They drop next to nothing and have nothing to loot. You get progres points from them sure. But how are you gonna use em? There are however a few tefusang that you might be able to slay for some decent loot. But you have to wait in line as everyone else has the same idea and there aren\'t enough to go around. It\'s getting frustraiting. So much time spent so little progress. It makes mining for platinum in the dungeon seem worth while. You get almost twice the tria you would from killing a rat in one lump. I can kill rats, gobbles, mercs, clackers, fanatics, etc. But even then rats are the best choice. you don\'t get as much but there is less wait if you know where to go and they are plentiful enough. But why couldn\'t fanatics have gold or artifacts on them I could pawn for some tria? Why couldn\'t you sell the clackers hard shell to blacksmithst to make armor? It all seams reasonable enough. But just remind yourself this is a beta. And free at that. Hopefully that will all be adressed before it leaves beta. Till then have patience and enjoy the rats. :P

Oh, I\'m enjoying it, you can be sure of that :) This is my first venture into MMPORPG, or even RPGs in general.

Guess I\'ll continue with the rats, or investigate the possibilities in becoming a miner. Or just explore the world. Role play a little.

Try tefusangs, yes there is one in the sewers that usually has a line as long as my.... anyways, try the ones in the wild, there usually is no queue for them. Yes, they are a bit stronger, but the teeth are worth it.

Of course, once the devs make \"working with stock\" available from sale, platinum will be the biggest payoff methinks.

But give teffies a try. What\'s the worst that can happen? You\'ll die and end up slaying rats again.

Well, whatever you do, good luck,

tefusangs are far better then rats..... there are some in the arena, but they usually have aline too, they are 16 gold apaeice though so it may be worth it.

yall did a horrible job of answering his question >:(. basically here is a more accurate approach. gobbles, clackers or certain tefusangs are next in line.

Gobbles dont hit incredibly hard but they have a lot more life than say a rat or a clacker.

clackers on the other hand, hit harder than gobbles but have less life so they are about as easy to kill.

now tefusang are tricky because there are two types. There is one kind that is easier and you can kill as easy as a gobble, and there is another that will destroy you in one blow. there are three easier ones in the arena, just find the room where there are three (not two) in it and they are safe. there are more in oja road and apparently one in the dungeon.

tefusand are by far the most worth while for each one drops a tefusang tooth which is worth 16 trias.

you might also try fanatics, but for now stay away from rogues and grendols and trepors. when you get a little better thugs are ok to kill.

thanks. I wandered about and tried attacking random things. I can kill clackers happily, but rogues are waaaay out of my league. Will continue training :)

Ack, I was killed by a rogue. I have entered the death realm too many times from those men.
The darkness falters the Creator comes
The bonds are broken from the lost lambs
The healer renews His people for the war
Evil has no place to hide no more
For the righteous renewed now stand
