Can survival books be put in better locations?

To use the book in windy I have to zone out of my mog house in port, run to the telepoint

>travel to another home point
>current region
>port windhurst
>home point#2
>teleport
>run to book

Similar situation in Sandoria, but the bastok one is actually pretty nicely positioned.

Why isn't there a book outside of the mog house or at least closer, why isn't there one in other zones?

Rhapsodies really needs to be scaled back a bit in terms of difficulty at this point.

Perfervid Narakas are ridiculous, have the devs actually gone to watch players try to kill these monsters? I was there while babysitting last week and I saw people dying over and over, then having to wait hours for them to respawn again.

You have to wait hours for them to respawn? Huh?

They are pretty easy to kill solo, and super easy duo.

This game is easy enough as it is to get most stuff done, lets leave some kind of challenge in it.

In 117 gear with 117 trusts they aren't easy at all solo. They have high evasion, they hit like trucks, their moves are AOE which kill trusts, they use defence down and they amnesia. This isn't endgame content, there is a difference between a challenge and off-putting to players who want to do some story missions.

Yeah actually the devs specifically singled out the Naraka as a roadblock for new or returning players. They're definitely not trivial.

Midcore - 4 hours a day? LOL... who works 40 hours a week and has a family and can play 4 hours a day? I don't even have kids and there is NO way.

With my job, 1.5hr commute, wife and 4 kids I'm able to spend at most 5-10hrs/wk lol.... If I don't solo it or get my wife to load her taru up, it doesn't get done.... Gone are the days of 20+hr straight gaming sessions and using vacation time to camp nms rather than go real-camping with the family.... heh.

You must be using the wrong trusts then. Use ones that AOE heal. It's all about working out the best setup. The types of trust you call can mean life or death in many different situations.

yes, does this exist? I can't even play GEO because of this, and I am running a pretty high end machine :/

Er LOL ok if this is not a troll post, the fix for that has existed for years.....It was implemented back in 2013.....Guess not everyone has read all the updates.

exact steps are:

Config -> Effects -> Make sure "All effects during Battle" is set to off. Turn on Party-> You/Party/Non-Party PC.

That's not exactly what was asked for, that turns off all effects.

Geo effects are honestly way too brash for perma effects, they also cause lag (especially if you duo/tri box). The point was to have an option to turn those off or tone down those specifically.

You would be correct, not many would.

Yes is not ideal but this is the solution that SE released. I doubt they'll go back and put a button just to turn off Geo FX alone.

Don't ask for instant gratification. This game needs more challenges. Even if there are little ones. Rhapsodies felt so rushed because it was content that anyone could do with ease. Compared to when Chains of Promathia came out RoV's difficulty is a joke.
