If doing that, I'd suggest keeping it for yourself? Improving your own character is absolutely no problem, but if there's a ton of iron and gold lying around for everyone straight away, it misses out some of the fun for others?

Check out where the trials start in the mines, maybe try and reach them and do them.

Sorry if I'm over stepping the mark, just want to get on with it and play it daily

Is the trials per person then ?

Yeah, fairly sure everyone has to do the trials. Though you can get help I think.

Think it's trying to find a balance of people having stuff to do, vs doing some busy work.

I should be on tonight, if anyone else is about.

Unseul · 30 Sep 2021 at 17:00

If we get 3, I say we go to the forest beyond the camps and try and find birchwood. Use it to open up the mountain pass as first priority.

sounds good
what time you on ?

Can probably be on at 7.30pm too.

Unseul · 30 Sep 2021 at 18:56

We can stick around town, or do a chest run or something, until you're on.

Shi, have you opened the path to the mining shrine? At the top of the mines area. Needs a lot of the stone you get from ore, or pull out the ground. I'd definitely not feel like that's having any effect on someones game experience if it was unlocked!

The forest is a bit scary! Those plants are a right pain. Though we found the birch. I'm intrigued as to what that lift is actually for too. I'll plant the birch trees I have tomorrow, and hopefully with the wood we get, we'll be able to finish the walkway past the treemen, saving us some time and effort to the camps.

It was just the big one that killed me, and I went right into the middle and killed it first before it's poison overwhelmed me.

Some of that wood is too advanced for our tools at the moment.

i found out that there are 5 different types of wood

and you need Mythril to cut to 4th and 5th ones

Well that'll take a while. Wonder what we need those woods for? Maybe more durable handles? Or quests?

So apparently the path down to avoid the treemen needs 5 iron as well. So it will have to wait until the smelter is done. We need about 70 more granite (I guess) to finish the bridge to the mining shrine. So we can either pull it out the ground, or next time someone is getting copper ore, they can grab some of that too. Or maybe killing rockmen.

We might bring @RockSteddy down the mine for his induction into the OCUK Township Tale fraternity.

We can pick up some rocks then.

Just don't let Shi get to him. Otherwise he'll be taking a sword down to the mines, but get distracted and wonder off along the mountain pass instead, where he'll die...

Shi. Pickaxes for mining. Axes for trees.

mining shrine ?

is that "in" the mines? or on top ? or ?

not sure i know what that is

i can get copper ore from above the mines (which do respawn i believe)

but when we are all on, we can head to the mines, iron ore starts on level 2 i believe ?

we can keep going then until we get to the teleportation level / trials

The shrine is above the mines. When you head to the mines from the town, go to the left of the mine entrance and up the side. I don't think the ore outside the mine entrance respawns, but the ores on the first level (where there's no enemies) do.

Iron ore doesn't start until level 10/15 I believe... definitely not level 2, we didn't see any of it when we went down to level 7/8 (I guess that's how far we made it).

I'm joining.

Can't see you online in oculus rocksteddy, though I see you in township. Don't know why you can't hear me?

I'm on an can see Unseul but can't hear any talking, can hear sounds though?

Are you logged on in oculus headset? I can't see you online for oculus chat.

No worries, it was time for us to drop off anyway.

You can't be a burden, levelling up skills isn't really that significant, and if we have the stuff, you can make the gear anyway. Just wouldn't want to go on a trip into the forest, or deep in the mines and have you lose connection and end up there yourself (though you should always have a teleport potion on you).

Unseul · 2 Oct 2021 at 15:22

Definitely a lot of fun yesterday. We need to mine a lot of the hard stone, from copper ore I guess, and get crystals, to get the televator ready on level 10.

I don't know if I can make it this evening, probably not.

we don't need to mine a lot of copper, we need iron at least, that's level 15-20

We don't have to pick it up, we still have to mine it to get the right type of stone.

EDIT - And we still want to stock up for buckles, making plates, making red iron eventually etc.

i didn't realise there was another type of stone from the copper ores, sorry
I've seen 2 types from the copper ores, but nothing different
ill google it, so i understand it better

There's 2 type of stone I believe. The white one you need for the first bridge and the well, and the grey one that you need for the bridge to the mining shrine and the televator. We don't have any of either type right now.

the bridge to the well is Sandstone (I've done over 200 of it now)

and i thought the stone to the mining altar was the same one at the start of the game ?

if so i can get those, sandstone is a bit of a problem though ..

It's the grey one, not the sandstone. I used what we had left building the mining shrine. We can get it from the dust bowl, but it makes more sense to get it from ore to me.
