2025: IS max rank 50 10,900,000xp required

Let us bring our fave husbandos and waifus to the island and have em stay there!

They've done a number squish before and it went fine. If they continue it I'm sure they can compensate or just introduce a different mechanic with its own exp system.

That said I'm with the doubters here when it comes to whether or not it'll get much more attention. *coughcoughSQUADRONScough*

Because if you've played it wouldn't be making any negative comments about it.

You are living on the copium my friend.

Do you see new updates for The Ishgard Restoration? Eureka? Bozja?

Island Sanctuary is just an expansion feature and will be dropped the moment we go to the next adventure in 7.0. And Im sorry but in no shape or form my comment was "negative" I was just stating the obvious.

Are you new to the game by any chance and you don't know how content works in this game?

I'm conflicted on this.

Whilst Island Sanctuary would benefit from having a grind behind it - It's got a system in such that, if you're doing it you're probably watching Netflix etc.,

I think it would benefit more just having a proper gathering system behind it, and/or a crafting system where people can craft for the workshop with gathered items.

You mean all the different aspects of DoL/DoH, which have fun minigames built upon them, are varied and quite well developed? Nah, that would make too much sense, let's make it so you click the node, short animation plays, and then you're done.

Seriously, at least make some RNG modifier for higher yield or some time/weather dependent nodes or something, anything that isn't clicking a tree/rock/plant.

too high effort for SE, no no no, any system they make need to cost $3.50 in dev costs

and honestly, I'm all for it, it would make IS a kind of an oldschool grind that while mindless, would be pretty satisfying for all the people who dedicated time into it

I wouldn't really call it an old school grind. The most effective way to get XP is to use your granaries and update your workshop once a week. 10 minutes once a week is hardly a grind.

Island Sanctuary was supposed to be relaxing farming game, it's just a weekly spreadsheet and forget sadly.

Try it without using the spreadsheet or hiring the mammets to tend the cropland and pasture.

If you're not getting much out of it, it's because you're letting other sources handle most of the content engagement instead of doing it yourself.

^ This. I never use spreadsheets and guides, that sounds boring. I just craft random things in the workshop (whatever I have the most materials for, lol), manually feed my animals every day, water my plants, etc. Do I earn max Cowries this way? No I don't, but I don't care because I've been sitting on 200k+...
