Compared to early F&F Chapters

I actually did not use Dulfy at all (nothing against Dulfy, she’s awesome) and only took about 3 Hours to do everything, including all of the achievements in Crab Toss minigame. Could have been even faster if I didn’t wonder off and started doing jumping puzzles and farmed with the new magic find…

It is short and sweet, but has replayability because of the rewards and fun concept.

200%+ Magic Find on the map is fun, it made killing those tough Reef Drakes and Karkas rewarding (With my magic find set which stacked up to 400%MF, 90% of my loot were Masterwork and above…not to mention all the bloods and armored scales and stuff)

Crab Toss was laggy at times but I think the concept is fun. I really enjoyed it. But it may be too competitive (lol funny I know) for some people as it is Players VS Players and there will always be scenarios where a really good player is there and some not as good…they feel like kids that never get to play with the ball in the playground. My suggestion is if you think the people you are competing with are too good for you to win and obtain that achievement, try a different server.

Sample collection inherited the Halloween scavenge hunt idea which provided hints on where to get them and gives you an audio feedback if you are in the vincinity of your target when you scan the area…This is so well done…future scavenge hunts should be like this, and not like F&F chapter 2 treasure hunt where it’s like pure RNG locations and no hints

Storywise…I really would have preferred more cutscenes (especially with Faren and Kasmeer!), but other than that its shaping up to be more interesting than F&F where 2 monster races join up and attack…

Overall it’s a nice and warm welcome back to Southsun Cove, my friends and I loved it.

Agreed, definitely much more fun than F&F. Enjoyed sample collection, no dulfy, didn’t even read the hints in achieve tab, while in F&F the treasure hunting bs actually annoyed me.

O light years ahead of F&F. This is a lot of fun and I’m glad it’s in SSC. It’s a beautifully rendered area that didn’t live up to its full potential after the initial event. My hope is that this event begins a new phase for SSC permanently, using the event to terraform/reshape it. The story is good. A little mystery as opposed to straight up war, which is what F&F felt like. I like seeing a lot players there too.

I really think this new content is a lot deeper than the F&F story arcs. I think that if we can continue seeing updates like this Living Story we be a huge deal. I think that one thing I must ask is, Where to you all know where to start with all the Achievements? At first I seem a little overwhelmed, can I get some suggestions?

Just follow the email>SSC>NPC…she directs you to another NPC & marks it on your map. Read the dialogue with NPCs, don’t just skim thru it. Read the achievement descriptions for the Living Story and they will clear up anything you couldn’t figure out. If you really need it, but I doubt it, dulfy is an option. Only thing I needed dulfy for were a couple sample locations.

I enjoyed this part of the Living Story very much.
I especially loved how we get buffs based on which side we want to help out.
Plus anything which gives that island more life to it will get bonus points with me.

Elona, Land of the Golden Sun….and undead…and poison. The travel brochure lied okay?!
