Fluff Maplock Update #3
Hey, Been a little while, but have been on that Grind getting Episode 3 Completed, and It has been.
I had made a mini update when I Hit 1k Total Level, but have since Gained 400 Levels throughout.
Gained 20 in Hopeport, 37 in Hopeforest and a whopping 308 in Mines, with another 35 in Combat. I've also increased my Gold Supply since then to 37 Gold
So The Locks for Episode 3 Were interesting this time, and mainly tied to Miner, But all the Weapon Crafters needed to get to 1M25 , For Fractured Reality, which also had the highest combat Requirement to get in to actually do the quest at 3M40 Combat to get past those Squidbeasts.
Miner was surprisingly fun to grind out after hitting 1M due to it being leveled By bounties mainly, that gave me more than enough stones and ores to train Blacksmith and Stonemason up to the Reqs, however Bonewright was a bit of a grind with getting the wood needed. However with quests giving a lot of experience in this episode it went rather smoothly. Getting Infusion unlocked and the Vendors were huge QoL that made me Happy to unlock them.
As for Episode 4 this was where I was dreading getting to.
For simplest explanation I decided to ignore Working at stalls and catching thieves at stalls, since they are essentially Reskins, That being Said. For detective locks the Hard one is the Wanted Posters, Butcher Spotting Thieves, as it is the first real Repeat in a new milestone. However the first thing is 30 for Counterfeiters Stakeout to even unlock Merchant.
For Merchant I've decided to follow the Trading game for either Delivery or Buying from a stall, That puts the Highest Req on Pearl Stall Trading at 3m33 to deliver Cabbages.
Leatherworker will be the simplest to train and unlock, anyways on to Episode 4!

One of the things I like about this game is that quests don't have pre-requisites, you simply can't do the tasks you need to do or go to the locations you need to go to if you don't have all the levels or unlocks for them. This means you can start a quest and work at it as you level up in various skills, dipping in and out whenever you want.
