curio study bank, how much do u keep it filled?

Post by joojoo1975 »

i've been wonderin bout this. the more peeps i talk to on scype and in P. convoes from this game, the more i see peeps not keeping thier study bank full.
I currently have 43 points to fill in my curio bank. when i log on, gettin my bank full is my #1 priority(only village defence or rescue takes a higher priority)
after i fill it, i go about my chores and only refill it if something is readily avail(like i can put in a strawdoll) while i'm working. On another not my crafted/foraged curio ratio is roughly 70/30 of crafter/foraged curio ratio


some peeps i talk to only fill it when it's totally out. some go for days before refilling it. and still others keep in bout 2/3 full(in case they find a bluebell)


what's the rule of thumb for you folks?

what's the ballpark % of crafted/foraged curios for you also

I do the same, fill as soon as i log on, but ratio is other way around, say 60% foraged - 40% crafted.

Fill it like a mother.

I just throw the best in, followed by crap...

i tend to currently try to fill when i first log on, but often I forget, and im at a stage where im not waiting for a specific item to pop in order to get the lp for a specific skill or to up it so im not capping something so i dont always fill it up when i log on, though i'm trying to remember to do it more often. I tend to use 60% crafted 40% foraged curios depending on whether ive had a good or bad foraging trip.

i try to keep it constantly full while i'm online, unless i'm out of the village.

the only foraged curios i use as standard are eidels and glimmers. The rest are not really common/good enough to be regularly used apart from as a small bonus, when i get time to forage.

Good point. Nothing like losing 500k in curios to random forest killer on unskilled forager alt.
