Rinse and repeat, with no divergence, the instant you get the gear you are stripping it off, to the point of the next armour is a micro step forward..

Well now you figured it out, go change it! You dont really need to grind, so if you do, thats on you :P.

In my 4 or was it 5 games of V, i've never crafted a piece of bronze or iron armor... and now with mistlands Flintbow is the only bow i craft. Even farming can be speed up thou its a pita tbh.

Ofc yeah the game IS grindy, and more exploration would be more fun, but i see people overfarm a lot here. There is better balance to strike within given game mechanics, even if they could be better too.
