Chapter 87 Game Guide
"This is a game that focuses on development elements and emphasizes teamwork, but it is obvious that the players have not realized this..."
After the early access version was released, Chen Ba also paid attention to the players' feedback.
However, it is hard to describe everyone’s experience in words.
Many people play "Land of Divine Grace" with the traditional RPG concept of "lone hero", but they end up being beaten to a bloody pulp by monsters and say that the game difficulty is too high.
The forum was filled with wailing.
Many players complained that they were either cheated by NPCs and lost all their equipment and money, or were killed by monsters and couldn't even beat a wild boar...
Only a few players realized that this was a game that focused on team development and began to recruit and train NPC teammates.
These players are the smart ones.
They knew that the hero's level was very low in the early stage, and he had little equipment and attributes, so it was very difficult for him to kill monsters.
At this time, recruiting any NPC teammate can be very useful. After all, even the worst NPC with the worst initial attributes can beat the basic monsters, and at least will not be killed by wild boars.
Before a hero reaches level 10, he needs the help of NPCs. After reaching level 10, saving some money and buying a full set of equipment, he can barely have the ability to "solo" wild monsters.
To put it bluntly, this is also a tutorial for beginners.
The reason for designing it this way is mainly to let players understand that they cannot accomplish anything big by fighting alone, and the brave must eventually form a team.
But unfortunately, most players misunderstood Brother Ba's intentions, thinking that I was the best in the world, and then they were sent to the resurrection point by the wild boar to reflect...
The full team of heroes consists of 5 people.
In the early stage, you don’t need to form a full team. Just pull an NPC with a “follower” level of favorability into the team, and the hero can normally kill monsters and level up to level 10, and get a set of excellent equipment.
After level 10, the game freedom will be improved and most functions will be unlocked.
At this stage, players can basically solo monsters and collect materials and resources. It is also from this time that players can truly get in touch with the core gameplay of "Shennong Continent".
What is the core gameplay? Recruit teammates and train teammates! According to the unique preferences of each player, form a variety of brave teams...
“There’s already a guide on the forum!”
As the gossip girl of the studio, Xiao Lu had a wide range of sources of information. Not long after the strategy post appeared on the forum, he came to report to Brother Ba.
"So fast? Let me see!"
Chen Ba was very surprised. He didn't expect that within less than 24 hours after the early access version was released, someone on the forum had already summarized a strategy post.
Is it fake?
In just such a short time, someone has really mastered "Shennong Continent". Is he really a gaming genius? Under Xiao Lu's guidance, Chen Ba quickly found a popular post in Tianba Community that was posted 2 hours ago and had 181 replies.
The title is attractive.
[NPC training tutorial in "Shennong Continent"! The latest team matching and career selection graphic guide! ]
The poster’s nickname is [The Cowherd Master]. Chen Ba has some impression of this name, as he seems to be often seen posting actively in the community.
I can only say that it looks a little familiar.
Could it be a high-ranking member of the Cowherd Cult? Not wanting to think about whether the poster had any connection with the Cowherd Cult, Chen Ba went straight to the body of the post.
"As we all know, Shen'en Continent is a game that emphasizes team development. Players need to recruit NPC teammates and train them..."
"Then the question is, how can we combine and match to bring out the strength of the team? How should different combinations be trained?"
"Let's talk about the early stage first. In the capital, just pick up two civilian NPCs whose initial favorability reaches the follower level to join the team. Once they reach level 10, you don't have to worry about it. [Picture]"
"After reaching level 10, you can go to the nearby Skeleton Camp to obtain materials for career advancement, as well as mineral furs, magic crystals and other resources."
"Now that we have the resources and materials, we need to recruit the right teammates and develop our combat power."
"I recommend that you improve the favorability of the Palace Guard Captain while fighting monsters. Although the Palace Guard Captain's growth potential is average, he is very useful in the early transition period..."
In addition to the text introduction, the graphic guide also includes corresponding game screenshots.
Chen Ba took a look.
This cowherd master really knows how to play. He formed a team with a captain of the palace guards to lead the front, while the brave warriors and other NPCs switched to spell output, forming a team of one tank, three mages and one healer.
This kind of team is very useful.
Moreover, in the early stage, the captain of the palace guards does not need to invest too many resources to form combat effectiveness, saving a lot of time and energy.
The only downside is that, according to the original words of the Cowherd Venerable, it is not easy to gain favor with the Palace Guard Captain. And most likely, this NPC cannot be used all the time, and you have to replace it with an NPC with higher potential in the later stage.
So change your thinking.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Give up the captain of the palace guards and choose to let the brave man go to the front row as a tank, raise a deputy tank to assist, and then raise two mages or archers.
Forming a team in this way will cost a little more resources, but the advantage is that you can keep using this team, even until you complete the game.
There is no optimal solution! In his post, Cowherd said that there is a gap in the growth potential of unique NPCs, but it is not that exaggerated.
Theoretically, even if we just randomly pull two old men and women from the street into the team, invest resources in them, and change their jobs to build equipment for them, it is not impossible to use them.
So he just recommended a few more practical or resource-saving and time-saving solutions, but did not say that these were the best options.
It just depends on personal preference!
The NPC’s gender, age, identity and even occupation are not important. What’s important is not to die. Once you die, you will lose everything.
at the same time.
The Cowherd Master also warned players who want to start a harem in the strategy post to pay attention to the real-time changes in the favorability of NPCs.
"...The game "Shennong Continent" gave me so many surprises that I once suspected that these NPCs were actually controlled by Brother Ba behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could they be so smart?"
"No more nonsense, just guess first!"
"I personally suspect that there should be a so-called favorability judgment between NPCs. In other words, they also have their own love and hate."
"Everyone, be careful when you open a harem, don't let a fire start in the backyard! The worst thing is that your wife ran away, and she was wearing the equipment you gave her..."
Pictures speak louder than words! In the picture, the Cowherd Master bought a whole set of blue-glowing fine equipment for one of his NPC wives.
As a result, the second wife had a grudge against the first wife. As soon as the second wife was married, the first wife ran away wearing that set of fine equipment. Before leaving, she did not forget to give [Venerable Cowherd] 50 gold coins as a breakup fee.
Chen Ba: “…”
OK, OK! I have to pin this post to the top of the page so that other players can also laugh at this big loser.
Strategy post? This is clearly a lesson learned through blood and tears! What does a complete set of excellent equipment mean at this stage? Needless to say, right?
