Quick Travel?

[acoustibop]

I was just coming here to say I'd found it. Thanks again Acousticbop. I came in a different gate initially, and was still making raids into western tangletree to finish off the Barrea Merc. So I kept looking all around that gate and area leading to it for the sign or obelisk...

You're welcome, LuvizBlind.

My biggest difficulty now will be getting some decent amounts of gold so I can pick up some training and upgrade my equipment. Gold seems to be a difficult thing for me to acquire and build up. I'm usually spending as I go for arrows and potions. I'd thought to invest in some alchemy training to help with that, but then I wasn't really finding enough ingredients and having to buy them. :shrugs: Seemed easier just to buy the potions.

Further to what Dr G says, if you're having trouble earning gold, this may be in part because you're spending it on potions. The Alchemy skill can be extremely useful. You'll notice that a large proportion of the people posting their equipment and stats, particularly in the 'Destroyer' thread, have weapons enhanced to +3 ToHit and +3 Damage, and defensive items enhanced to +3 Armour Rating. This isn't because they found or bought them like that: at level 15 Alchemy, you can enhance your equipment by that amount every time. Most people are working their Alchemy up to 9 - with the Alchemy training you can get (or would have been able to get) in Bordertown and a training book you can find, it takes very little actual expenditure of points to achieve this - and then putting on 2 Brewmaster's Rings to bring their skill up to 15 when needed. The potions you make this way are all top grade as well.
