Comments on: The Gravel Pit http://www.killtenrats.com/2009/01/02/the-gravel-pit/ a group of adventurers on an epic quest Thu, 09 Feb 2012 14:28:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Tony http://www.killtenrats.com/2009/01/02/the-gravel-pit/comment-page-1/#comment-29288 Tony Mon, 05 Jan 2009 19:22:06 +0000 http://www.killtenrats.com/?p=3000#comment-29288 Yeah, the animal slaying isn't too bad... At least the drops are consistent when you're stuck doing that stuff. Most of the time I just found another quest to do without an issue. I agree with a lot of people in that the game's biggest problem is travel quests. Going back and forth is frustrating in and of itself, but sometimes you do this several times over. It gets boring... Sometimes it's broken up because you can finish other things on the way, but not always. I'm hoping that they shift away from it more and more as time goes on. They do seem to learn their lessons along the way. Yeah, the animal slaying isn’t too bad… At least the drops are consistent when you’re stuck doing that stuff.

The genocide of Boars (and Wolves and Bears!) will be quite fun! @Rog
Hah, I’m a mere lvl 16 at this point

Wait until level 20, and the Boar Slaying begins in earnest.

The genocide of Boars (and Wolves and Bears!) will be quite fun!

Now I'm two bars from 60. Oh well, c'est la vie :p @Merimet – dang, now I’m feeling kinda bad about heading back to Eregion at the start of level 59 and completing almost all of the quests there.

Oh well, c’est la vie :p

It means that even tourists can get to see him but if you want to actually kill him you need to grind out your radiance armour set.

I managed to get it on the first try without disturbing the Watcher, but just as I was leaving he blocked the doorways and one-shotted me into a fine Dale-man red mist. mpb, there is a deeed in there too.
