I actually think we'll see the Ashlands before the end of the year. Maybe not on the retail branch, but on Public test.

I've already done all my preprations, I established my main base central-southern in some plains, with a straight sailing voyage to Ashlands. I've leveled all combat skills (Except spear lol) to 50 or higher, and Both magic skills to 70. I even got the fishing hat, bringing my total fishing skill to 70, which makes hauling in massive amounts of Angler Fish for Fish'n'bread a snap.
