My clan n me started fresh as well on an offi server… and we are sorta stuck since 1-2 days due to grinding more n more oil. Farming seeds to put in fluid press ( 15 make 1 ) and then bugs for traps… well. Its really rough to get a good armor set done now. The best way seems to be to farm derketo and mounds of dead thrall camps to gather those armor bits and put them in dismantling bench, they give each a epic armor padding. Better than being stuck at fish / bug farm. There should be at least another way to obtain more oil, and if its trough a special alchemist or something. Don’t think players will continue if everything is THAT grindy. Also older clans have a huge advantage due to easy giant fish farms over month or years.
