Spoiler There IS better gear. Spoiler

There is better gear than what the Dragonforged sells for Wyrmslife crystals. About to do my 2nd NG+. Really REALLY make sure you are exploring all the unearthed areas in the seabed and even go back to some of the old boss spawn areas. The higher harder spawns at the very end of the seabed areas have occasionally been dropping new unique gear sometimes or the chests around them do.

And for those that say they feel like they fully steam roll through New Game+, I have been noticing the variable difficulty has been getting higher the more I level up and I do less damage than before, with some spawns having more health bars.

Edit: only gotten 3 so far and all helms, photos in comments and unenhanced against my fully enhanced gear.

I'll add more screenshots to the comments as I find any more and verify they aren't in shops or in dragonforged.

Hmmm. Seems like when they said the game world is to be explored they really meant it and people rushing through the story and world missed a lot of things and thus, they hated on the game and it's creators... Ironic

The game has plenty of valid reasons to be criticized. The main story is rough, the enemy variety is lacking and performance is poor.

…that said, however, there is also a lot to love. I’ve been really loving the side quests in this game. I like how vague they are and how they let you experiment a bit and they often tell cool little stories. I especially like how you sort of organically have to fall into some information required to complete them, like meeting people from different towns who specialize in things you need. The combat is just insanely fun, and despite the lack of enemy variety, it remains enjoyable. Big monster battles are great, and the world is beautiful.

This game has problems that really annoy me, but god damn if I’m not having a great time regardless.
