Ye i did the same thing, arch is just one big quest that is not fun, so if you jump ahead a few levels and dont unlock a certain thing your bricked out of higher training methods, pretty dogshit way to setup a skill.


its like it was setup as if you were to play the game

:shocked:

if you just lamp skills sure they arent going to be fun and you are going to miss out on content. who would have thought it.... bloody hell

if you actually played it as intended, it was a ver well thought out skill very enjoyable

"if you just lamp skills sure they arent going to be fun"

What if you just lamp the skills that you don't find to be fun?

I've trained and lamped different things depending on my in-game interests/desires, at different times.

I understand giving up on a skill and doing the easiest way out to level it; that for me was dung. It never struck me as A "skill"; you really need all of them to do it well.

The way I played my way up was to try to always keep all my skills relatively commensurate in level. I got pretty badly out of balance when I was a noob trying to make money, and from then on tried to get everything to 60, 70, 80, etc.

Then came dung (and I DO love saying that abbreviation in my head when I type it), and it was a minigame that combined the most annoying aspects of questing, plus a boss at the end of every episode.

The running back and forth, often for the sake of doing so, the interruptions for puzzles and other arbitrary gates to pass, not my tea at all.

I am two levels from a master cape, and have never left the frozen floors. Lamps are WONDERFUL. The dung hole is the only beach activity I do.

I do not give one rusty rat's patoot what "content" I am missing by doing so to get it over with.

Not intending to yell at you, and no disrespect toward those who love it. have at it, and enjoy.

I hate it. And that's no one's fault (including mine, lol)

you are missing the point of what im saying, considering what in responding to.


but dg is awesome, i did 200m long before lamping a skill was a thing.

damn almost 12 years ago

but thats up to you. if you lamp a skill. but it does still fit with what i am saying. you miss out content due to lamping sounds like youve been lamping from an early dg level so yeah you never got to learn it.

so thanks for helping my point

i never said they werent. again you seem to be missing my point. they make you miss content, thats all im saying.

if you truely do hate a skill then sure lamp away, but my point still stands you do miss content and its that content you may actually enjoy after all

you never left frozen floors, thats literally the beginning the of the skill. not even started yet. you opened a book read half the first chapter and said the whole book is shit and not for you.

see what i mean by lamps make you miss content? cause thats all im saying nothing else

I get your point. You seem to be missing mine.

The game is sold on being able to choose your own path in playing. OF COURSE you miss content if you don't do every bit of it.

What if it's content you don't care about?

Have you never tasted a dish and said "nope" and not eaten more of it? Oh, but kale is so good for you! It's a superfood! Just try these 47 ways to mask the taste, and then you can eat it!

Why, if it tastes horrible?

I have indeed opened a book, started it, and said "not for me" and put it down. Most notable The Life and Times of The Wicked Witch of the West, after enjoying the musical Wicked. Wonderful premise, well done, go find the book and enjoy! Sadly, no. Several pounds and hundreds of pages of boring navel-gazing nothingness, where I kept slogging through and WAITING for SOMETHING to happen that would make it worth it. No. And many pounds of sequels I never bought, after wasting a few days of my life hoping for better from reading the entire dismal first book. Gosh, that must have been a good twenty pounds of content I missed. Thank God.

The lore of dung and all the nuance isn't worth the bother to me, with, as I said, the worst aspects of questing in the mechanics. Ooh, run back and forth to get the means to open THIS door! Hooray! Oops, wait, need to grow an herb to do this next one and OH! a PUZZLE! All to open the last door and...do it all again, starting with nothing but your loadout.

Awesome sauce.

Not for me. It's a minigame. I can read the lore elsewhere.

indeed and i never once said not to do something

i am a huge advocate on do things the way you enjoy.

as i stated before. lamping = missing content. simple as blunt point nothing else to it.
