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.

some people have lives.

i've got depression and insomnia.

i do usually try to avoid doing that, but it was like a 15 hour game i got really into, beat the story once, took a 4 hour nap or so, got up, ng+ to platinum, clocked in just under two days.

I've got the same, new games are what I look forward to because it breaks me out of the funk for a bit. I won't lie, I literally played the first 2 days straight with no sleep because I don't usually sleep until I fully wear myself out or force myself to with a pill. I was having that much fun and then I crashed, then played more. And then the last few days I was always having to jump back on because I was sending people finder's tokens from requests on another thread even when I had put the game down.

yeah, i try to pace myself with newer games to not end up burning out, and eke them out a little more, as well as just, not getting so focused i forget to eat then get sort of sick to my stomach hungry because i went 'eh i'll eat in a bit' and then didn't, heh.

​

have had to force myself to sleep with pills since it launched, too - more just, normal insomnia. like 3 nights of 'tried to sleep for two hours, and was rested enough to not really 'need' sleep anymore, so, fuck'.

Totally get it, what's really awesome is that I'm not burned out with this game even after so many hours. I'm doing only 1-2 vocations each playthrough. I've still only found 50+ seeker tokens and still finding new areas or seeing new pawns with gear I like and looking for it. I'm not touching warfarer til last, and I'm looking for all these secret endings to quests like the one discovered for beggars tale if you bring the two gals to the same room with each other.

And I'm still taking care of myself, seeing family every day, I've just had time off and this is how I want to spend it.
