I have a castle in the mountains that took 3 months to build so I'm not about to build anything in the Mistlands. Basically months of waiting for 2 nights of gameplay. WTF

I'm going to assume that you are a God Gamer. Most people in EA will have over 150 hours played. As we play more in EA, we play better, but it won't reflect the pacing of the retail experience. We know how to mitigate most of the dangers with preparation and situational awareness because of our time played. This familiarity with the games systems confers a serious advantage over new players.

Some of us are bound to be beating the entirely of the released game starving, naked, and armed with just fists. It isn't feasible to balance around that.

Wonder if you're using mods like epic loot? I know epic loot made mobs and bosses extremely easy.

Test server with probable balance changes and bug fixes for official public server on the way.

'A father less child' is not really profane, just unfortunate (for some)

You do realize you are just opening yourself up to all manner of comment. Ultimately the game is in EA and for many people the best approach would probably be to set the game down and come back when it is in 1.0.

And you have not yet killed the boss so I guess you will really get 3 nights of play.

But to your point on leveling, even in lower tier biomes you could never fully level all that biomes gear without some resources/items from the next biome (usually needed to upgrade a crafting station).

Given that we have some biomes yet to come I would guess the next one will have what you need to upgrade crafting stations so you can tier up Mistland gear to max.

Also not true. We leveled all our plains gear with nothing from the Mistlands. In fact you needed material from the older biomes not newer. Maybe you should actually play the game before you comment?

You run away from those....

what's your seed? (unless it's a secret); is it a continued seed or a new seed?

The problem I've had is there's not really any place to run from those starred
soldier bastards (a little job for the profanity filter); up a hill or into the water;
i just die tired.
um filter didn't work; must not be profanity; i'll find out if I get chastised

If you haven't killed the boss, you aren't done. Nice S/P though.

Play by yourself if you want a challenge.

I suspect it's trivial with 2+ players. 1 can kite while the others DPS the mob. Making the game so much different and easier than playing solo.

well the game is easy once you understand the mechanics of enemies, but its also incomplete. if you really have an issue and want to play more, i suggest modding your game there are tons of great mods out there already, and the game isn't even 1.0.

This. play solo and then tell us all about it.

Wait for Mistland to go "live" than use some mods to crank up a difficulty.. u must understand that elite players like you 2 are not easy to find.. most of the players would
say that game is all ready hard enough.

Why do you have to be in such a hurry? This biome has more content than any before.

If you don't want to build anything, that's your choice. If you could raise the level of the weapons, you would probably do this in a couple of hours and there would be a reason to complain again.
