Learning points

Postby erebus486 » Mon Mar 01, 2010 5:20 am

Now that the server has reset and all I figured I should ask. I have been working with some friends on a new settlement by a lake.... Fishing, hunting, and even built a few houses. But what are some of the really good ways of grinding or farming lp points? The generic development doesn't get you nearly as much as ive seen some people get in half the time.

Well, killing a level X boar still gives you a thousand lp at 167% learning rate. The catch with hunting is finding the animals to get the lp from. That's why hunting herds of mouflon and aurochsen are good. You find so many more of them than you do bears.

Pretty much any strenuous steady work that drains stamina seems to be good, assuming you have the raw materials.

Once you get good q wheat and poppies, or chantrelles and onions the cycle of harvesting, patch-ploughing, replanting, grinding, making dough, making finished dough, baking offers a lot of lp.

Exploring and foraging is only decent lp if your perception is really high so that you are finding stuff constantly.

Unfortunately clear cutting is one of the best ways for a new player to grind lp.

And then there are the two old grinding standbys: making dream catchers with only two branches and no string, and making looms with only the branches. Like clear cutting those two methods bring down the property values in your neighbourhood and make it look like a bad district in Detroit or New Orleans.

The more correct answer is that farming LP is no longer a recommended task.

I recommend making yourself stuff that you want and already have the skills to make, and focus on putting your points into either buying new ability skills, or raising your exploration so that you can get farming seeds.
