A-Net probably wanted to cut down on running, but at the same time they pretty much nerfed exploration as well. I liked finding those little, out-of-the-way outposts in Prophecies (Ice tooth cave? Fisherman's haven?) and if you can't do it anymore other than following a linear main quest, I'm disappointed.

I like to just wander around and find places, but if I can't get into places, what's the point? Plus, I there's no way to distinguish places on the map that I can and can't get into yet.

I'm a little disappointed, as well. Not too bad, but it did tick me off last night...

I spent a good two hours exploring last night...ending up with -60dp in the process. Eventually I ended up finding a "portal"...only to realize that it was barred off and I couldn't proceed. Extremely frustrated, I just mapped all the way back to where I started and logged out...

I'm the type that would rather go out exploring for areas with a group of henchies, then do every mission one after the other. I found that I tend to get pretty aggrivated with the hours of trying to get a good group AND beat the harder missions. This attitude was probably brought on by my nightmares of THK.

But yeah, I'm a bit disappointed, as well.

there are some keeps to find that have nothing to do with the story quests. it involves a mapping quest on each section... 5 areas in 4 regions each. has a nice reward for doing it too as I recall...

the keeps and stuff are nice little out of the way places. but they dont seem to be independent map bips as of this point. maybe someday in the future some of those keeps can do something more...

I was running around the starter island, just having a relaxing half hour taking in the beautiful scenary, taking screen shot etc - I wanted to make my way to the north west of the island and came to some portals but I couldn't get through

The guard told me to "go get some more training" and I'm like WTF I'm already lvl 20!!!

I warped back to the harbour and went north from there - found lots of Yeti's and some really nasty bird me Strangley I managed to lure the bird men to the Yeti's and they fought each other, and when the Yeti bosses died I got the moral boost even though I was stood a fare distance away

But yes, disappointing to be hemmed in.

Anyone else also find the early quests a pain? I lost count of the number of times I ran through Wajjun Bazaar last night

Do the quest "battle in the sewers" which is the quest that you get after completing the luxon mission where u get the spear. the "battle in the sewers" quest will take u to Sunjiang District which you complete and then talk to Jamei in Matu Keep for the quests "befriending luxon/kurzick".

Once done with Sunjiang District, take 'To Cavalon' or 'To House zu Heltzer' and go to Zos Shivros Channel (Luxon) and Altrumm Ruins (Kurzick) to access Cavalon and HzH respectively. Once inside one of the cities, you can then do Befriending the Luxons/Kurzicks which involves gathering 10k faction for which side you want, once you have 10k Luxon/Kurzick faction you can confirm your allegiance (this doesn't spend your faction).

Do you have to do all that to craft armor? I don't get a lot of online time and i've been struggling just to get to zu Heltzer (Am in Arborstone now)... do I have a long way to go still?
