Decent LP Farming methods?

Postby Kaiellis » Sun Apr 24, 2011 11:39 pm

Hey guys, fairly new player here. I started up the game with two of my friends. We started off well, but are starting to lack decent methods to gain LP. Does anyone have any decent advice for getting LP? Cone Cows are alright but its a rather far walk from our camp and its still pretty slow. I tried ant raiding but I can't do much since my unarmed skill is too low as well :c.

Also, for some reason when I make my character go to sleep and log back in, theres still a person sleeping in the bed and I can't use it anymore. Essentially a 'ghost' of my character. What causes this and is there a fix for it?

Get 10 unarmed combat and you can raid ant hills without worrying about the ants. After that get up perception and exploration to find better curiosities.

Trying to raise unarmed though its getting extremely difficult with the lack of decent LP gain, as well as its raising cost. Though I did manage to find a cat gold. Maybe my luck will turn around~

The beginning is always a pain in the ass, make sure you change your beliefs slider all the way towards change on the change/tradition one, that way you get a higher percentage of LP per curiosite, capping out at 300% when it's all the way to change.

Are you near water?

I'd suggest getting boat building followed by 10 exploration as a majority of good curios are from foraging which requires exploration. The boat is so you can quickly travel by water and just looking for foragables and ant hills. When you raid an ant hill all the ants aggro, but if they touch water they become confused and just wander allowing you to raid the ant hill freely. Cone cows, bark boats, ants, dandelions should help you get to the point where you can start doing more creative things.

Also fishing. Each new fish gives 50 LP when caught, butchered and cooked. Thats 150 per fish and you can usually get 4 different ones pretty quickly. Plus they are a good source of int.

No, changing any slider pushes you do change. So you should push peaceful first.

Ahh, alright. What about changing the slider to peaceful?

If its at 300% then instead of 50 LP I get 150 right?

Alright. You can change the slider once a day right? Is there a way to shorten the time?

-edit-
Nevermind, just reread the beliefs.

Remember that if you're on a boat, you don't need UA to raid anthills. Just get off the boat, start raiding the anthill, and when ants get aggressive against you, hop back on the boat and move 3 tiles away from the shore. The ants will reach the shore, stay one second there (since they can't reach you) and then start moving around randomly. You can then hop off the boat and raid again the anthill, and the ants won't attack you.

Alright thank you, I'll keep that in mind.
Does anybody know about that weird sleeping bug by the way? My character is still sleeping in the bed, even when I wake up/login.
