For those Who are having problems making cash, Get to raid 3 learn the survival mechanics needed to get blood swords from that boss, untill you have 2 tanks able to heal themselves. Kill 2/3 brothers and quit raid.
*do that till you have 200k equipment slot then you can farm.
Soft resets, harder foes slightly, i think more exp and gold gain slightly but hefty amount of exp and gold reward from bosses.
Put it simple with no reset, with all 5 raids and arena upto say level 8-9 can easily make it to prob more , 20-30k gold and 25-35k exp ? maybe
Soft reset #3 i'm getting raids 1-4 done easy arena upto 8-9 maybe 50-60k gold and forgot about exp 45k-50k
Starting off they are great to use against the throne room brothers, its about the same as the hatchet that drops in raid 5, but can also be used in raid 4 against fire and ice boss, they do make a difference in burst if you lack some dps.
Speaking of snapshots love that they have that , makes it easy to set up different combinations of specs for different bosses/grinding/AOE/ can even quick swap in mid battle to increase DPS at certain situations.
If your playing on sandbox mode and soon as you get your industries started. Try looking for a camp that has at least one or more horses for sale in livestock market. Buy as many good ones as you can. If your running a small crew 4-5 mercenaries have them all on horses and plenty of food and water storage. Pretty fast travel going at 12 speed. Tagelmust is good starting off industry if you can spot a city with cheat textile.
