Nomad credo is too harsh on npc travel time requirements

[Zachary09]

Right. After all it's what the name implies.

For now I'll just skip all traveling-requireant quests and see where that leads me...

If you think Nomad is hard, try Mystic with it's experience quests. The point is that some credos are supposed to be harder to obtain.

this credo will be gud when devs remove easy travel... roads are polluting the world, making it smaller, and making localized resources trivial... roads could be higher speed venues for animals and vehicles, costly to build and maintain with LP or XP, some kind of decay involved and attractive for gankers...

I'm someone who loves wandering around and foraging, but I agree completely with Zachary. Walking to nowhere for HOURS is extremely boring and having to do that repeatedly seems downright hellish. This game eats enough time as it is.

How do you even travel 3 hours on current map, you go everywhere on foot or what

Not everyone knows how to find their way around the world using roads. New players in particular would have trouble with that, as would hermits who don't bother keeping up with in game politics.

12 quest of ''harvest 30-90 hops/peas/pipeweed'' in Farming, 9 questst of ''study silken ribbon'' in Tailor, 8 quests of ''pick glimmermoss'' in Forager, and u complain about... travelling? U must be kiddin'

At least the other quests involve doing something beyond mindlessly clicking on the map over and over. I generally don't mind grinding, but spending days looking for trees is a new level of boring.

Edit: actually, I guess this credo might be alright as an end game thing. I think super long travels should be reserved for the last part of the credo, though.

That is literally what being a nomad means though.

Maybe nomads should have better qualitative benefits like faster walking speed or slower stamina drain (although the inventory thing is already extremely useful), but I don't think nerfing challenges is the way to go.

Wouldn't it be possible to use a bot to make your character travel to the tree? If so, I could imagine a lot of large factions just botting their way through this credo because finding the trees on your own is too tedious.

In case you don't care about messing up your hunger (so it could eat foreaged stuff on the way) it wouldn't be that big of a problem.

If you don't like journeying, maybe you shouldn't try to be a nomad?

yes what he said

[AntiBlitz]

not so much that im complaining as im just putting it out there. The quest provided was to go find "Bileric". Let me tell you, he is on the other side of the world, took me about 4 hours roughly to get to it. Kind of absurd. I began my quest at roughly 55, -60 and ended finding Treeman Bileric at -96, -98. Idk if others consider it excessive, but if i continue getting those quests, this is going to be a painful credo. Id rather had taken the "timegate" quests just so that i could continue doing other things that were actually fun, but instead i just burned myself out riding a horse endlessly for hours.

For me it's moreso that you end up encountering riverways which force you to backtrack endlessly unless you use the oddimap. Foraging while completing it is only so much fun when there are no mechanics which support taking long treks to forage because your inventory is full in two seconds.
