Curiosities

Postby dunno6988 » Mon Dec 12, 2016 11:45 am

Just a general discussion about curiosities.
When you guys study a bunch of curiosities do you guys put in highest LP first, lowest xp cost or lowest intellect cost?
I usually go for highest LP gain and then what's remaining to fill up the study table so intellect cap isn't wasted so it would be 25/25 rather than 23/25 or 24/25.

Int does not limit me anymore. I mostly just study trash curios that I may find or have left over since I am too lazy to craft anything.
I don't really need more LP or stats to play the game so I just put curios in out of habit.

Claim upkeep but don't need much for that.

I am living the nomad life at the moment, so I mainly study whatever curios I have at hand. ATM I have collected a huge amount of Frog crowns, so I am looking for a swamp to get some toadstools, but that's generally not the norm.

In civilization, though, I take the highest LP per hour that I know of and can make (bronze steeds, flower bouquets, sandcastle sometimes), then pile on some low attention, high LP at a slow rate ones (aurochs hair, petrified shells) or I chainsmoke mirkwood offerings (which are still pretty good despite nerfing).

I'm pretty nooby, so don't take my word that those are good curios. (Except the mirkwood, which was confirmed one to be pretty badass.)

God I just hunted down a bunch of Boars last night to get the Bone Glue for a Study Desk and I am going to start chaining those fuckers all day, every day. Only reason I don't right now is because logging into chain them for MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY is pretty tedious.

Go for the Bloated Boteles or however it is spelled, wishbones, Dewy Ladies Mantles (the regular ones are awful, Dewy is pretty great though), Dragonflies, and Toadstools. All of those are solid curios, OP.

When I had limited INT, I went for LP/Hour/Weight (dragonflies, bloated bolete, ladybugs, seer's bones, etc...). Nowadays, I'd usually go for highest Q curio that I can grow / craft (Straw Doll, Great Wax Seal, Bouquet of Flowers, Seer's Bone, Seer's Spindle, Seer's Stones, Poppy Flower, Stalagoom, Uncommon Snapdragon).

Not anymore. They nerfed the study time to two hours so it's basically a worse seer's bones that's easier to craft.

Still pretty good. 30 minutes was da bomd, but considering how many curios take half a day or more, I'll take it.

it's still good yeah, but unless you have 0 access to bones there's no reason to study them over seer's bones. You can study both but that will fuck up both your exp and mental weight.
