Hmm, my personal experience can’t compare. I only looted oysters a few times if I ended up around the area because of quest. I didn’t intentionally grind for it, but I still have about 6. I did finish all the ‘easier’ cooking though.
I usually leave the more tedious ones for when I’m in the mood or have time.
I think good way to describe my mindset is that I try to spend my time in a way where I won’t regret doing something. I set reasonable expectations for myself. So even if there was more horrible rng horizontal content, you still probably won’t see my complaining. I’ll get to it eventually as long as I’m still playing and enjoying myself.
For stuff like honing, I save enough for pity, so I always end with some success. For cooking and other stuff, I mindlessly spend time on it if I’m not doing anything better. If I don’t finish, that’s fine, I still (hopefully) made progress and can resume later.
Most of this is a mental thing you put up against yourself, and we can’t expect everyone to see it this way. But anyone who see some sense in this, might understand to try and not let obstacles frustrate or affect them as much.
That said, I plan to work towards conviction and judgment rune this weekend. I think it will do my lance master good.
Lucky. I’m still trying to get it and I’ve been doing that since I got to Yorn. I’m not at my computer at the moment, but I know for a fact I’m well over 40 days lol I think I just crossed into the 60s this week.
While I’m not against RNG systems to prolong the “adventure” a little bit and to keep a zone active, I fully believe it needs to be toned down a lot in some cases.
Also, to chime in here… it’s obvious that the developers didn’t even bother to research how to harvest oysters as it is literally one of the easiest things in the world to do, no experience needed. When I was a kid in Florida, living on the river, we could go down, knock some oysters off the dock and have a feast in minutes. In the oyster beds, people would use RAKES to gather oysters easily. So how is it so hard to pick up an oyster from a spawning spot? Apparently pretty hard according to the devs.
The droprate for this is absolutely atrocious, 5% or less at least. Whoever thought these types of collection quests are a good idea at these specific droprates is absolutely nuts.
Whoever came up with this idea and anyone who ok’d it should not be employed by a gaming company any longer. How is this enjoyable for anyone? It’s a complete time sink with no engaging gameplay, it’s 100% frustration.
It was better to put a time gate for food stuff than just make it simply rng.
I have to play alts to have 1 hone per week on my main and still need to spend 6 hours trying to farm oyster, makes no sense.
Tell me about it. I gathered over 1k+ of the most common mushroom before being able to finish that… I have been doing yorn daily una on 3 characters for 2 months everyday. Opened at least 150+ chests and still no meat drop.
I am doing oysters now and had to gather 20-25 times on average for a single oyster drop. Still missing 3 oysters. 1 server and multiple people trying to gather.
And the message it shows for a failed oyster gather is annoying me. I’ve gathered over 700+ oysters. Anyone above a single digit IQ must have earned enough experience to gather it properly after gathering it that much! What do you mean by “Gathering fresh oysters failed due to lack of experience.”.
oyster is actually kinda easy. there’s a lot of competition, but i got it in like 3 hours following maxroll map here, exclusively on the right circle area :
using golden cloud mount will help a lot to travel back and forth from the left 3 nodes to the right 1 nodes
I will thumbs up your opinion of the oyster collection. IMO, it either adds to the game or it subtract from the game.
The idea of running around to collect these oysters based on RNG is extreme time consuming. You get no reward for it except the adventure tome completion. I think most people do not find this mundane task a pleasure to do.
I just did that today. It took me 3 hours. 4 channels, one spot, 3 episodes from my favorite tv show It’s fine. Do it less popular time, like morning or night.
Please rethink the ridiculous RNG, the slow spawn rate and the limited number of spawn points for these oysters. Sadly on Karta, we only have had 1 channel for Bellion for at least 8 hours, and there are multiple people trying to farm these.
It’s fine. Do it less popular time, like morning or night.
