Township Tale

I finally got in today and played for the hour. Went down the mine, killed a couple of rock golems and a spitter thing and did some mining. I finished the Mold stand and put the molds into it.

I saw you were on and came on, couldn't find you though, I went up to the top of the hill and killed some rock golems there :D, got killed too, but got all my stuff back. Apparently spitters and rocks will fight each other.

Great news on getting the mold stand done! Good job. I reckon we can get a load of stuff from the top of the mountain if we work together to kill the golems up there, plenty of coal too which will be handy.

I was down the mine for ages, that's probably where I was. Since there is only 8 per server, I wonder why they didn't just let people talk to each other from any distance.
 
So I did a thing.... You know that awesome 2 handed metal handle you found...

I used it. I put the massive hammer head on it.

I'm not scared of the rock men anymore! Little ones are crushed in 2 hits. Big ones a few more, but not too much, and they get knocked over too.

Mined some ore and also finished the bridge to the mining shrine (approach the mines, go up the path to the left to the top), got a level in mining now, so every 4th hit is a crit. Made a fair few copper bars too, about 20 or so, with the ore I collected. There's a load more ore veins up on the top, so I'd enjoy going up there again and blast our way through the golems (who've been dropping gold and sometimes iron too) and get more copper.

EDIT - I left it in the 2nd blacksmith building in one of the big shelving units, have a play with it.

edIT EDIT - Just used ti again to smash all the rock golems at the top, got a ton of ore, more stones and mined some coal.

haha, sounds awesome!! I think it's some kind of dual weapon though. It looks like something you should attach something to each end.

Going to stick with Archery for the time been myself. Haven't got the time to play enough to get my levels up in a variety to things.

Also, I am having a problem, I am not getting rewards for crafting stuff. I crafted and Pickaxe in the Blacksmith and the bag and some other object(not sure what it is) in the crafting hall, but, the objectives out the front of both buildings says I still need to craft a tool/craft a recipe on the crafting station.

Not sure if I got those or not? Not too worried about it (unless it actually makes a real world difference?).

You're only allowed to have 8 active skills at a time anyway I believe, so specialisation is the best way forward, and it mostly seems to be QOL changes, rather than anything else. Only combat (or archery I guess) seems to have anything other than a time saving effect, as it can save your life.

Well, you must have because you are the one who brought me to the crafting station and got me to make my own bag so I would get the achievement. You know just before you enter the crafting station there is a list of tasks in neon on the left handside of the door. There is a tick box beside each one. Same with the blacksmith. I am sure you know what they are.

All I am worried about is that if it isn't giving me credit for finishing the task, then it might not giving me credit for any crafting I am doing, so I am not improving anything. I am stuck at the same level all the time.

I know the boards, I just don't know if I got credited for those ones. I haven't been credited for the mushrooms one at the woodcutters hut, but did experience a bug (I think) for picking up wood, but then it just worked later.

We saw that you had some leveling up at the skill shrine we visited, so you must be getting credit for some stuff at least.
 
Right, good news, I've found 2 handle recipes. One is a weird one handed one that looks like you have to punch with it (you can put a dagger blade on). The other is a curved wooden handle that I tried out one of the 4 way attachments on, it's currently got an axe and a dagger.

I've also found out what I want to do with the next 2 handed handle we have available. Warhammers are cool, but I'm hoping to be able to put on a massive sword blade, and have a reaaaaaalllly long range swinging weapon.

EDIT - It's a Long Branch Handle apparently.

I will keep an eye on it!! Those QOL improvements are important in a game like this!! Anything that makes my life easier is much needed :p

It's like you are playing Gorn :D

But, gratz on finally finding some handle recipes.

Just wish I could find some time to play :(
 
I see you made a woodcutter attachment, and found the woodcutters backpack recipe too. Will be very handy for a wood run past the dust bowl. We'll need some iron to make the attachment stands though.

The massive sword on the hand and a half metal handle works quite well. Doesn't seem to do as much damage as the hammer, but can be stored on the side pouch.

Once we find the long single handed wooden handle, I'll make a little gold hammer head and put it on, apparently they're the best for hammering in nails.

They've apparently rolled back to the previous version while they resolve the logging in and crashing issues.

Funny that it worked ok for you apart from that first day. But, hopefully they can get the issues sorted before they release that update again.

Did we lose anything on the Server?

Wasn't in today at all, not sure I will make it in tomorrow either.

I had a few other crashes, but the login issue seemed to be improved. I guess one was server side and one was quest side.

They said nothing should have been lost. I've not played today (didn't yesterday either). Waiting for it to cool down i think, and also perhaps to try and get on at the same time.

Yeah, sorry man, that's my bad. I am finding it very hard to free up time at the moment. What I was actually hoping would happen is that some more people like Shi, NightStalker and Dokko would have joined the server by now. So more chance of actually been online at the same time as somebody else.

Not your fault! It's been bloody hot here, not sure I want to do prolonged sessions of anything.

Aye, that's the other problem with A Township Tale, it's impossible to play for just 15 minutes!! You might go on with the intention of leaving after 15 minutes, but, there is always just one more quick task to do!! :p

Quick chest run... oh, full, best drop that off and go to the other chests.... hmm, now I could just kill some birds for food, since I've not got any... best cook that up... guess it's been a couple of in game days, best do a quick chest run...

:D:D Exactly!!

In the Woodcutters backpack recipe what's the third ingredient? Sticks, rope and I can't figure out what the last thing is?
