O_O; I see...

The input is certainly appreciated. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who feels like this.

At the same time, it's a little disheartening. lol I tried going to the camps around Camp Broken Water. I got 2/3 nodes, but when I tried to make it to Zna'rk(or some such?) I got horribly owned. Still, I'll try and see if I can get a friend or two to come with me next time but I don't know how much good it will do if they get one shotted D=!!

However, I can see where you're coming from about the aggro types. Although, I'm having trouble differentiating between mobs that do sight or sound aggro. For some, I know which is which but for others- not so much.
Sadly, a most of the information about this game is very dated. D=!

I wish we at least had sneak and invis for this purpose >_<!
Or that Stealth didn't fail so much. v-v;
It should just Stealth you period and throw out the level requirement and slow movement speed. As a gatherer you can't do anything but gather anyway. You can't really gather high level gathering points since you will most likely fail and you can only use them once. D=
