There are quests where you have to kill like hundreds of enemies but we're too low level for those at the moment so we've been doing gathering quests. Just have to collect a bunch of materials like wood under a certain amount of time.
So you just started out? Is this the one where they want you to attack the training dummy? Typically it asks you to perform several basic attacks in a row on the dummy. It should be displaying text in the middle top of your screen, but people have been experiencing all sorts of issues so it may not be there. Usually you need to use LMB several times, RMB several times, and maybe F too? I don't know if it's the same across all classes.

Are the gathering quests able to be completed by non 50s? I'd love to help with them, but it'll be a hot minute before I get to 50. Taking the combat leveling slow.

Are you playing on a TV through HDMI? Some games (Crysis 1 and 2 for example) have this weird glitch where the game locks to the lowest available refresh rate (24hz on TV's). I don't know if this game has that glitch but that could explain it.
The only way I could get around it on the Crysis games was to create a weird resolution (1916 x 1080) and that would go at the full 60
I think it's a bug with the full screen mode? Try switching to borderless full screen if you aren't on that.

This is exactly what I had to do to get fullscreen mode working.

Yes, as long as you level your gathering. A level 20 with apprentice or skilled gathering and 80+ energy will be more helpful in gathering quests than a level 50 with no gathering and a low energy pool.

Thanks Ricker for the guest pass, but I think this game isn't for me. Have fun y'all.
I haven't seen any caves yet, but I know there must be some since a lot of leveling guides recommend some cave for around my level, but I haven't gone yet.
Spent most of last night just running around West of Glish and found 3 new cities and an enormous farm place, so that was petty cool. The fort with the Harpies was cool too.
Most of them are based around high level mobs, so unless you're in the mid-40s, nope.
The game doesn't really guide leveling through quests. The quests don't even provide combat (leveling) XP outside of the initial tutorial batch of quests.
Just gotta kill mobs for awhile. Questing actually slows down leveling progress.
If you're in a 4-5 man group, those general level guidelines change a bit. In a 4-5 man group, you'd want to go to most of those 2ish levels earlier.
Apparently that full screen bug is still present in the korean version which came out a year ago. There goes my hope for pearl quickly optimizing this game..;<

Thanks that worked!
(you can also alt tab and change hz in NVIDA control panel and that will fix it, but that has to be done every time you launch the game)
and the game is a performance monster too, I can't get it to 60fps with 2xTitan X's @ 4k.
Honestly that totally sounds like something I would do hop one some strangers raft and ask where we going
OH gosh I never watched a video of training a horse and thought when the space bar showed up to immediately start mashing space bar and I failed the first 15 times thinking there is no way I'll ever tame a horse this shit is stupid bugged broken game! Then I said in guild chat about a horse being where I was and GAF guildmate came over and tamed it I saw him walking towards it then he said go watch a video on youtube and then I applied my palm to my forehead realizing I was doing it wrong, Tamed the second horse there 20 minutes later.
Edit: Man Ashodin I thought I would be exempt from the guild kicking to make room.
I only went to watch the Deadpool movie last night. On TOp of that I gave you food man. I cooked you real food and fed you! That was mean and made me cry. Not once but twice and gave you all my health potions!I'm pretty sure there's a goblin cave to the south east of Velia if that's the kind of thing you're looking for. It's just full of regular old goblins though, maybe 1 violent version. I did see a few treasure chests, but I didn't have any keys last time I was there
Best way I can explain it is they're like building "roads" between locations. Cities are hubs that are free connection points. You need to build a "road" between the cities and the nodes, which cost Contribution Points. However, it's not permanent, and you can take them out whenever you want. Once you build a "road" to a node, you can click on them and activate resource locations, which you can send workers to.
Workers are NPCs you can hire to farm those resource locations. You can hire workers in cities from an NPC. You need "Lodging" in the cities to hire workers. You can see which houses have lodging through the map when you click on a city. It's the little houses, and under that there's a subset called "Lodging". Explore the menu and you'll see what houses do.
That's a very basic description of nodes and workers.

I'm using one but you need the mouse and keyboard close by.
The controls are fine, especially for combat. You can adjust the sensitivity of the sticks which is handy.
I use the back button as my mouse view modifier, then using the analog to control into menus etc can be a bit of a pain so I have my mouse for inventory and settings. You need it close by anyway because you can't start the game with a controller.
It's not ideal and definitely nowhere near as good as FF14's implementation but certainly playable.
I might try my DS4 later to see how it compares.
Personal opinion..don't use a controller. At least for ranger

I tried adding the 5 officers in NA GAF so I could message for an invite, but it doesn't seem to be working.
If anyone sees this while there is still space:
Family Name - Lowertal
First Name - Saphrie
Would love to join

What's this limiting guild member thing they have going on...so annoying,that and the energy to chat...people have so many questions to ask because of the overly complicated stuff that is not explained well,or at all and all of a sudden you have to wait like 3 minutes to say one phrase...

You have to add by character name even though it says family name. It's a bug.

The chat that uses energy is global chat. It would be pretty unreadable if everyone on the server could spam that without restriction.
To go a bit more in depth, nodes are indicated by large icons on the map. Typically towns, farms, camps, and roads. When you've uncovered one of these on the map, you'll see a white line between nodes you've invested contribution points in and ones they can connect to. Cities are free and automatically considered active. So starting off you'll see some white lines connecting Velia to Loggia farm, a coastal cave, etc. To invest in these nodes and make them active you need to go to that location and speak to the node manager and select node management. This will bring up the map along with an option in the top left that says something like "invest contribution". Now you'll have a yellow line between Velia and this node. By doing this you activate the node and if you've uncovered any other nearby nodes you may see a white line leading to them. If the node has sub nodes (looks like gathering tool icons) you can invest in those from this same menu.
So essentially you create paths between areas by activating adjacent nodes like this. Once you have a path you can send workers to gather stuff (if you invested in a sub node). You also significantly increase the value of items sold to trade merchants when you connect the origin point to the place you're selling at. In this example if you catch fish at the Velia docks you can take them to Loggia farm if you've connected it and get a little bit more money. The longer routes give bigger bonuses and prices are affected by supply so if you're trying to trade you want to find items few people are trading and deliver them as far as possible.
And while you have to speak to the node manager to invest contribution points in a node, you can remove them at any time via the world map. Note that if you've invested in a sub node you must uninvest there first before you can take the point out of the main one. Also you can't uninvest in a node that's in the middle of a chain. You need to start at the end and work your way back.
