by bitza » Sun Dec 28, 2025 9:43 pm I read about some market that was only about 45 minutes from my base, so I headed that way to see what was up. There I met my first player in the wild this time around. When he rolled up to me on his horse, I could smell the cheeto dust and BO immediately. He had really sweet gear. Hussar wings, merchant robe, couldn't tell what else but he looked like he was very successful in haven & hearth. I could hear his heavy breathing as his auto-aggro kicked in. I didn't even get a chance to type in the area chat, it only took about 5 seconds for him to KO me. He took my traveler sacks and a couple of other pieces of gear, and left me with about half of my HHP in cruel incision and nasty laceration. He must have had really high stats. Most of my stuff was probably garbage to him. Well, he really needed those traveler sacks apparently. I probably would have given them to him if he had asked, I mean, it's just leather and wax.
If you're reading this, whoever you are: No hard feelings, I get it dude. I played haven the same way and took it way too seriously, years ago, when things in my life weren't going so great. I hope things get better for you. Also, thank you for reminding me of the many hours I spent on haven & hearth in the past and what those many hours amounted to in the end.
My base is intact, I have all the shit to cure these wounds, I can make new traveler sacks and whatnot, but honestly, there are better things to do with my life.
I hope you enjoy your new traveler sacks
