At one point I forgot to showcase this video about tomes, auto respec, and fame calculations. Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2WnqI1nnZpnb7M

[@duc5473]

This video just opened my eyes to how much time I have wasted in black zones. I thought that getting killed by Guilds was just taking a risk in exchange for better loot.

[@hano1334]

Hello Benji, hope you read my comment. I’ve watched the whole video, thanks for sharing all of this information which is helpful for us solo/non solo players. Thanks from Indonesia bro ❤

[@wayneogle1792]

I like this format for vids (every now and again). The Q&A format lets you clarify and update points and it is still entertaining and useful. I’m spending silver on upping my cooking all at least 80 with one 100 and a couple in 90’s. Hope to have it done in a couple of weeks.

[@furkanduran3787]

You explained everything in details most of others does not bother to explain it

[@Aheo.o]

Thank you so much for this holy grail of information, we all really appreciate it and it has been an insane help, believe and then test, all test have clearly shown your methods are the best for us solos. Much love from Mexico

[@SirRav73]

Again thank you for all the great advice

Sup man, thanks for putting time into making guides. Found you somehow when my kid wanted to play albion, watched some palia vids. Played that too. Dig your work, lost my leg though...couldnt click the vid on the side fast enough...

Benji you got the best Albion content brooo

[@renericksevilla9761]

I got my 6.2 set with Muisak and Shadowcaller on my 2nd day of free premium. I ended up being broke for like 30 minutes, but I got all the money I spent back (and plenty more) in no time. All thanks to your videos.

[@user-kh2tw1to3r]

Thank you very Much🎉

¡Amazing! Thanks for the content bro

This video is awesome I've seen other creators and they don't give me any useful info for me to make my own decisions. I'm a brand new player but why on earth would anyone hate you?

[@Lobinagg]

You are the best guide

[@reneilweramawele7107]

Been watching Swolebenji since I started playing albion early last year. One thing that has proven to be true since I took the advice is that blue zone gathering (especially for hide) is definitely 1 mil silver per hour. Whenever I lose silver from whatever activities I do, I just gather for a couple hours and then get my silver back... never bought premium either.

The last 30 second of every video are so funny

[@shadowfall9561]

:) Great video. I have watched it a couple of times now. One thing I can't find anywhere - but maybe I am just missing it - if you change factions what is the % of standing you lose? They just say you lose a % but not the actual value? I am assuming that enough people have changed factions that the numbers must be somewhere? :)

[@coldtouch]

tnx for the vid, helps as I plan playing on EU. you barely mention the game but eve is the closest game to Albion , in ways you don't know from the way you described it. in many ways they are similar just different setting.

[@AceGamer746]

thanks swolebenji for the guide.......i was confused about which server is best coz like I have 40 pings in the east and 234 pings in the west and I have researched many times and found your video thanks for this....like man seriously thanks........love from India❣

Smoothfloor best to skinning tier 4 hide but there alot people in there if u see more then 50 people in that zone then go to slowtree or steelhide.

[@jwiggins420]

If you’re not new, we were able to listen to you repeat yourself! 😂 swear I’ve already heard most of that video within the last 2 months I’ve watched. Only spot watched before you started playing palia.

[@johnleasau7661]

Sup benji do you see the gold market getting better? i know in your previous vid you touched on the gold situation has anything changed?

[@gauravdas5002]

I have played this game for a month a few days on the East server. It is safe to say that I am burnt out, although I am now an elder skinner due to bots the profits are not worth it. At first it was fun and interesting since everything felt new. But now the progress has flatlined mostly the only way forwards I see is an infinite grind with no end in sight. All the passive wealth gaining methods are useless on East due to high investment and low returns. I don't think this game is worth my time anymore. I might continue playing for a week or two because of the premium that I bought, but after that it is hard to say whether I will continue playing.

[@akiriko1418]

lol theres all kinds of pvp and high tier solo dungs, or corrupted dungeons, you dont have to skin animals for 100%ˇof your gameplay, maybe even 0% is fine :D and pvp experience is much more fun to gain, through studying meta weapons, strategies and practicing with real players, compared to leveling professions.. Atleast for me

[@fjk174]

How to escape east?

[@-Vargass-]

Okay I got to say now how to put this your comment on guilds and the way you put a lot of things with that I so agree a lot of times...... I'm new to your channel and Albion and I found your channel by chance I think this is my favorite video yet that I've seen of yours you're smart ass remarks and straightforwardness with some of the stuff and your way of looking of hey do this first it makes you better off in the long is something I've done a lot of games before and people didn't understand it or like it that much but I understand without a solid foundation built up in the beginning then the longer play ends up less secure and more painful to recover if something happens And your thing on guilds.... I have played lots of games been in many guilds most not worth time I have found a few that were but only few people in most after years of playing I think I only had two or three worth joining and most people were good rest many had one or two people worth working with and so hard to find like minded people so yah understand that one I like being able to grind and work on crafting some and don't mind gathering so most time would be solo maybe get lucky and eventually find some could join and have fun with but probably take long time in moat games it does if you are looking for something worth playing with for long time But yeah got to say enjoy how you like just put it straight for the most part and how you're not afraid to be a smart-ass while doing it was looking for some other builds as well just got a lot to try and look through to find them lol Keep up the good work

[@FilipToma78]

Is creating a guild and getting a guild island worth it?

I started this game two weeks ago and my base is in Martlock, at the moment the hide stations have more less two options 9.999 silver or sth like 300, at the first week idk about the prices and I was wondering why with the refining I was loosing money 😂

[@Wilder.A.S]

[@mobadisko]

Hi benji, you mention two map place for gathering skin, but where to do stone gathering best?

[@Pynonbush]

saddle tor

[@Naph008]

As a player in east server I can confirm that gathering in this server sucks, yes, what he said is true about the cartel and the market East is plagued with bots and cheat users, I often farm flagged bots for additional faction points and unflagged ones when I'm bored of all the BS Yes, ganking is the meta in the east server. More profit, high requirements though. East server is basically playing the same game in the highest difficulty possible.

[@CesarGarcia-ch8xb]

Is fort sterling good for gathering T2 stone? . Btw love your vids they help me a lot ❤

[@alyasVictorio]

For gather T2 stones or better, it's Matrlock, because its biome is rich in stone golems which help you gather more various stones, whereas Fort Sterling has more T2 ores or better instead because its biome has ore golems which help you gather more ores

Ive grinded a lot and recently just unlocked t5 skinning on east, do you really think its worth going to the west, even if my pings like.. 250~

[@freziaplanet4198]

I wish I had 250 ping in west. My Ping is 700 on a good day. I'm from the west, so the east server is actually worse. My wifi is garbage. Anyway, for someone who plays with mroe Ping than most, all that really matters is if you think it's a good idea. Ping isnt a big factor for gathering or killing most overworld mobs.

[@abhijaman4792]

Welp, consider me swolepilled

[@mysteriousstranger_2000]

New player if u wanna make siver selling hide then look at market of hide price before u go skinning. I always see tier 3 hide price higher then tier 4

[@mysteriousstranger_2000]

But benefits of skinning tier 4 hide is u can get stag baby and sometime u can skin 4.3 hide I always skin tier 4 hide for stag baby

[@Elmaronic]

Hi. Im not looked this video jet, but i have question about gloves. What are best to LVL up for futureproof? Im seen Your video about all weapons, but there You more deeply explained Your favorite weapon...cursed staff branch. About gloves not much suggestion. In one video You mentioned what You craft mostly spiked gauntlets, are they best choice for start?

[@BlackBurnBear]

12:00 I don't play albion online (even tho i think ill return cuz i kinda miss it but i cant cuz 2 busy) and I gotta say that I got T8 gathering in just 1 week while watching YT, working, watching movies, etc. and it's funny cuz then I discovered your videos and back then the battleaxe was broken and I remember that in 1 week i got to T8 PvE gear without using tomes just doing dungeons while again watching yt / movies / tv shows / working (also didnt spend learning points) and after playing like 3 months or 4 I already had money to get 3 months premium for me + spend on premium for 3 alts. I was legit every day there to collect the slaves thingy diaries 1 min before they finished, same with plants, always same pathing, and then always started by doing the salvage thingy cuz I had an excell and other stuff helping me to make that in like 15 mins or so and then always doing the afk farming while updating every 30 mins the prices of the markets just in case there was something worth to market flip/transport or whatever (I sometimes got to 1000% profit on items just by buying it in my city and going next one asap even tho the average was probably like 200% because I hardly ever got into lower profit flipping except if I could flip a lot of items in 1 trip so even if the % of gains isnt that good its still a decent amount of silver) Anyway I go back to watching the vid lmfao PS: Since Ill probably get to albion again next year or next month, I'm already updating my knowledge and my excells and bots (not in game bots tho just programs I coded that do the dirty job in the excels so I dont have to type all the stuff 1 by 1 and check the best option 1 by 1 etc.) and I gotta say I saw many juicy stuff in the market. I hope those things stay as juicy as they are right now so this way I can get the premium on day 1 and go back to minmaxing again (btw I saw you say that premium isnt worthy in alt characters or something like that recently, but according to my maths it is if you minmax it since just by the pure focus you can make the character pay for itself + all money spent on the set up even if its brand new, but its not as ez as before, that's true; indeed I think that if you aren't into minmaxing economy you will regret cuz in maaany cases its a waste of money, (well I guess that if you plan on investing all that money into having an op crafting character so in idk 2 years or whatever it starts to be profitable + starts to pay back all the money lost, then I guess its also fine, even tho IMO that sounds stupid cuz I rather just invest the money in a better way because there are if you just check the markets and do the things right etc.)

So gathering hide in t5 yz is not worth bcs t5 hide animal doesnt drop baby right? but what about about other resource? like fiber etc is it still more worth to gather in blue zone than yz?
