    Looked for a good hour for the tour guide in southern grunvald barrens. Thanks for the help. Most annoying tour guide quest yet. Next time, let's bury the tour guide underground inside a flying balloon made of desert plants. :confused:

    I'm surprised all the tour guides were not transformed into Trolls, and you had to talk to them while being punted repeatedly. :p

    I just try to get the tour guide quests out of the way and then I start "playing/testing".

    I understand why we do these, but man is it frustrating some times. I almost never use the help videos from Envy or Mad Hermit but I'm glad they're there when I need them. :)

    But my big feedback to the devs is this: Scenes that just have tons of things that can kill me standing around waiting to kill me are stupid.

    Can I have a hint with the southern grunvald barrens (before resorting to looking at the video)? Do I have to look inside a coop or is he a free ranging chicken? :)

    No, no hint. You have to run around for an hour and then throw your computer out the window. :)

    Thank you so much. I have been searching for over an hour, I had even gone up there but was killed by the phoenix before I could even get close enough to see the guide.

    One thing I love about being killed over and over again, is when I respawn, for a brief moment as I'm taken out of combat mode and I sheath my dagger, it looks like I'm shaking my fist at the world. I love that! I hope when we respawn there's some kind of rage emote that occurs. :)

    Maybe if you get killed by something twice then you respawn with a "baby fit" emote where your character is just throwing a horrible tantrum.

    Next time, change tour guide locations between early access and official release.

    Would delay a video by all of a couple of hours....................as always players don't have to watch the video if they don't like spoilers.

    So why did you decide to put such a high hitting creature next to the tour guide?

    edit: Bless the OP for creating these btw.

    Because the historical reason for having GTG quest around the game world is to showcase new content and scenes.

    But if I can't complete the tour because mob kills me all the time without a chance its no fun. These are to be fun try out the game not spend 10+ hours so you can survive against 1 mob to get a hat.

    The Grand Tour IMO should be showing off the new things but not requiring a lot of time to complete. You don't want to make your playerbase mad. The Wynton's Folly Tour Guide needs to be moved or better hints as to where to find him in game. I spent many hours looking for him. This is not what the Grand Tour is about. I don't do "Quests" in the game right now because I want them to be fresh and new when its released not knowing where to go and what to do. I do the grand tours to see how things look and get a feel for the combat not spend hours grinding out levels and skills that will get wiped before release.

    I was able to get the hat with three others. But in a week or two time, there will be less people playing this patch... which might make it an impossible task for a solo player?

    Hopefully in time, we will also raise our skill and adventuring levels so that we can stand our own in the most dangerous places.
