It promotes laziness IMO. Ah well
Agreed. When I was told to do that I was like "...Wait, that's it? That's...really lame..." (Something of that nature), so after my first 3 ashes I was compelled to look it up and actually look up a guide for it. Though, I do think it's more a lack of clear instruction on SE's part. The starter NPC told me to go to the Gold Bazaar, so I went to the Gold Bazaar.
