Great Video! Just wanted to edit for Minute 10:40, that it's right that the loot system buys the items from the players, but not from the regular market. These quick sell options at the regular market in any royal city is a buy order made by a player. The market where the loot system gets its items is the black market in Caerleon.

Naturally the one video i'm in is the one where we get our cheeks clapped in faction warfare. Not the countless arena wins we got lol. It was great getting to experience some of this with you. Absolutely agree having friends to play with greatly enhances the gameplay. Solo can be fun but I think a solo player will have a great time joining a guild and engaging even in small group content. Probably the one of the best sandbox-y MMOs I've encountered. Great video dots looking forward to the next one(s)!

If you want a little bit of insurance in rz/bz - whenever you do a dungeon, always sprint past the first 2-3 groups of mobs. If a pvper enters and sees nobody has killed them, they are more likely to leave the dungeon; compared to a situation where they see the first mobs are dead and then proceed to catch up to you while you’re killing other mobs along the way to the boss

I really enjoyed the vid, Waydot, and I appreciate that you gave the game a fair time investment to really get a feel for it. I play solo f2p and basically spend all of my time gathering, fishing, and transporting. The one reason I love this game is because at the end of the day what you choose to do is completely up to you, and you can easily make a build/strategy to make anything efficient and worthwhile. Keep up the great work, and hope to see you in-game some time!

Given that all the loot ingame is player crafted, I'd love if you could customize items to a forther extent, or if there was a way to look into a history of an item, so they would feel special, like an archeological artifact. It's kinda silly, but this detail really touched me for some reason.
@ThatDudeWeird6 ай бұрын
Been playing Albion on and off for a while, started about 5 years ago, but when I started I played like 12-14 hours per day for 6 months straight and kinda burnt myself out. One thing I gotta say though, I understand why you didn't join a guild in this video, but once you get involved in a guild, it changes the ENTIRE game, especially depending what guild you join. However, a lot of the higher up guilds that own certain black zone areas, won't let you join without a huge amount of fame. But dude it's so insanely fun when you're in a huge guild that owns a t8 black zone and you can store your items there, and for the most part walk around and do dungeons freely. It's insane fame. At the same time, a lot of really good PVP'ers will come and try to kill stragglers regardless of there being 100 of your guild members in the zone at all times. Then there's the medium scale (like 10v10) battles that end up happening with people risking 10m worth of gear and insane mounts, it gets crazy. There's just so much to do in this game. Anyway, I just felt like watching this to see how you liked it and now I really want to get back on and play a bit and I'm definitely going to lol

10:32 This is false, I don't know who told you that. The actual answer is there is a separate market in the city in the middle of the map (caerleon) called the black market where an NPC buys your loot at gradually increasing buy offers, these buy offers increase depending on demand from loot rolls on the server, when it's bought it's stored in the loot redistribution pool as you call it and then distributed to players loot. Otherwise the best video I saw about new players on Albion, congrats!

What I found fun and impressive in this game was how cutthroat it was. From scammers that can scam you in outlandish ways. Mafias that manipulate either the market price or city crafting and refining fees. Spies in guilds that would snitch when your guild is planning content with high-end gears. Guildmasters that basically enslave unsuspecting new players with 100% tax. I even remember that 1 time I partied up with someone in the blackzone while I was still new, and they executed me when I got knocked down.

Amazing video.. and though it pained me to see you not watching a few guides on the game but i can respect that you want to kearn the game through experiences, fyi you can kill players and even kill t7-8 mobs in a 4.1 set, its cheap and extremely efficient being around only 35k silver including t3 mount. You would want to use a 4.1 set over a 7.0 set because it's going to be 10x cheaper and will give the same stat values if you have spec (spec: specialization in that armor/weapons, if you just have a ton of fame using that set) you can get around 1000 item power with a 4.1 which is the same as t7.0 gear with zero spec

My complain and problem with AO is that in order to get into PVP you need to do lots of PVE. And PVE becomes very boring in my opinion where every zone look the same. There is nothing much to "discover", "visit". It's all trees and rocks, and that makes the explorations in this game not rewarding. Also all mobs look the same, there is no diversity in the bestiary, it gets again...boring. I wish the devs were putting efforts in those areas, because if so, i'd be playing all day :)
