Dude i feel you, i realy do. Sometimes in this game, knoledge trip seems so hard and unfair. I remember about 11 months ago i was exploring the world as a new player, the weapon i was using it was the 2 handed sword and nothing else. This ofcurse make me vulnerable in to dungeons, because i had to hold a torch. Anyway at this time i was in love with bearers, i had a tier 3 bearer - female always- to follow me on every trip i was making, she was my best friend back then 
. On my trip one day i found my self inside the silver mines. It was dark so i took my bearers shield to hold it with the torch… 
It didn’t work so i just hold the torch. The big scorpions at this time looked so difficult enemies, but my bearer was taking care of them easily, another reason to be in love with my bearer. I started to mine the silver exited with my brand new steel pick… Stone, stone, stone, stone, silverstone, yeeeee. Being 20 min in the dungeon my torch broke, no fiber, noooo, i have to find my way out. 30 min to go out but alive, yes. Still i didnt explore everything, so if 2 more torches and back to the mine. At the ‘end’ of the crystals shining, oh there is more, beautiful, i felt pro player, i discover hidden path. Going down this path, sandstorm, aha i have my mask, but how come sandstorm inside here, unfair. Stop for awile till it’s gone. Down finally and oo lala more silver, oh and more scorpions and… What’s this scorpion… One hit… Respawn at… WHERE DID I PUT MY F… NG BEDROLL - to the bed anyway. Safe option, but no i want my things back and most of all my beloved bearer. I run with everything i found to wear in the house to take back my valuables, but no i need food, go back take food and waterskin… and maybe a weapon, yes, one handed this time to hold a torch, yea i learn more, i am pro, now run to the silver mine, but where is the silver mine, where did i die? Oh look at the map, yes, i found my monument, yes, this way Stelios you can do it, what’s this grey hyena… Respawn at… This time i take bedrolls too, once again, map… Oh no my monument is elsewhere now, s… t, read the map, yes yes, yes, oh silver mines, i found it. Run, you can do it, save your bearer and take back what’s yours. Finally out of the mine, alive, go in dude you can do it, now, Forrest Gump method, run Forrest, so i made it, i found my bearer fighting an unfair fight, so she died… Still i can take my valuable, from her, run Forrest, yes i took them, maybe my armor too, yes good idea, it is a heavy armor after all dressed with twine and fiber reinforce, it is valuable, yes i want it back, run Forrest, circles to draw the scorpions away, from my body, made it i am pro, yes, loot now… Over encumbered, oh s…t, what do i drop, this i want, this i need… Respawn at… I quiiiiite, no way, i quit stupid game, stupid game, i quit.
No i didn’t, i was really upset at this time, but i didn’t, i just keep playing to find out that the things i lost this day was nothing compare to what i gain… Knowledge. Yes this is the message of that game . This i feel that the creator of the game wants to tell us, no matter what you loose at the end you will gain the most valuable of all, knowledge. Loosing all this valuables my dear friend it’s nothing compare to the knowledge you gain, i know i sound silly right now but keep playing, have fun.
