Crimson Desert Discussion (minor spoilers)

Maybe it could be something cool if you were able to grow something from exotic seeds and then use the special cooking device for it.

The only thing I've heard that is worth growing is Abyss seeds, which gives you cells, which is then used to craft cores. I think the cores are used to craft gears, otherwise you can slot the cores directly into your gear. I still haven't used any gears, but I have a good 6 of them in my camp stash.

Found this cool place. Scared to go to the middle, but what a man does not do for some loot!😅

I find it a bit interesting that Kliff supposedly cannot use guns, because if you look at any guns you craft or find, then they will be red. BUT, I have been using the Rhinard Cannon (the one I wear in the screenshot) for quite a while now, and that weapon is actually both a spear and it shoots unlimited cannonballs!

Still mucking about with the camp upgrade missions. I did some more exploration too. I zoomed out the map and realized there were big chunks of Hernand without any fast travel points discovered so I went looking for them. I found a couple, then stumbled upon another secret waterfall. This time it had some good gloves that had level 1 resistances to Ice, Fire and Lightning. Only problem is the attack and defense on my current gloves are a bit better, so I need to refine those new ones I found.

Wife is going to visit her aunt and sister this weekend, so you know what that means... gonna pull an all-nighter on Friday night 🤣 I have so much to do in this game, that's still barely enough time.

I keep dyeing my gear. I think I've finally settled on a color I like. The black was making it a bit hard to see the details of my gear, especially in darker areas.

The game may be good, but I didn’t like it. I watched a bunch of videos from bloggers, but I don’t want to play it.
I'm interested in gaming news about Crimson Desert. I might play it in the future.

Nice lookin' armour, reminds me of Dark Souls PvP matches when you meet guys who slowly walk towards the middle of the arena and you just know you are in for a fight!

Now I know what my next mission will be tomorrow: trying to find those gloves. I have little to no resistance except for food, so that would be of help.

The only hint I can give to you (because I really don't remember) is that it's behind a waterfall somewhere in Hernand. If I had to guess... I think I was towards the north-east side of the province? I don't even remember the name, I'll have to let you know another time. The resistances are only level 1, so when fast travelling to a snowy area it didn't protect me much at all. What I really need to do is find more recipes for food with those resistances, I think I have a level 3 Ice resistant soup but that's all for environmental protection.

That is all the hints I need, so either I find it through exploring or I miss it and that is perfectly fine.

I think that by the time I play it you all be finished and can answer any questions I have.

Shouldn't have waited for monitor... oh well

After 53 hours, I'm not even halfway done with the main story and I haven't left the starting area. I've stepped a few feet into the other zones, but have explored less than 5% of those areas. By the time you start I'll maybe be at the halfway mark 🤣 I'm taking it slow and doing just the things I want to focus on, so it all depends on how you play the game yourself.

@Frindis the gloves and cloak I have are part of the Dark Ringleader armor set, meant to look like a Bleed Bandit captain. I can't believe how little unique gear I've found in this game, I'm hoping to get something else soon.

I really hope they add a transmog system to the game down the line, I'd like to customize my looks without sacrificing stats. After a while with this cloak, I'm starting to realize I look like a WWE wrestler with all the tassels and flairs jangling about when I run.

To add to that, I would also like them to make low-level uniques a bit more viable for the later game. I found a really cool spear that had this unique effect of collecting souls from dead people, then after some kills, it would send those souls outwards, making enemies confused if they got hit by it.

I guess you could always swap between weapons after the unique effect proc, but then you would have to take into consideration just how much longer it would take to kill mobs with crappy DPS.

Update: I just read that you can refine some legendaries and such through the kuku pot, but I have no idea when that starts to be a thing, and if you could even do that with the spear I found. It seems to me that something like that should have been in the game earlier (or at least mentioned), so people don't just vendor certain weapons because the stats are no longer good.
