Wow is all I gotta say! Change the mine because its too hard? *laughs* Having started numerous characters and being a 16 year veteran maybe everyone forgot their first character. I can recall dying to numerous small woodland animals with my first characters. Many of us died to rabbits. Flash forward 16 years and no one does anything unless they are completely researched, tweaked, and optimized and if they die well its too hard and obviously a design flaw. Come on! Seriously? 16 years ago there was no research or 100's of detailed web pages on everything. You went out and explored and you died a lot. That's what made the game great! And it had way more people than it does now. So get over it already. New players use to learn to fight their way up through smaller animals to larger animals before you even thought of stepping into a dungeon or mine or monster of any type. Anyone who truly explores New Haven would find all kinds of creatures to train up quickly besides running right into the mines and complaining when they die. There are Brown Bears, Grizzlies, Boglings, Lizard Men, Ettins, Brigands, Panthers, Wolves, Eagles, boars, hinds, great harts, birds , rabbits, and a whole lot more all over New Haven. So get out , explore, and enjoy the world , instead of doing what some power gamer told you on the web.
