Personally, after I get done with a local festival on Saturday, I plan to explore the new islands on my Mage first, before hopping onto my Conjurer and exploring the building side of the update. Assuming that infamy gain in the Nimbus Sea is still a no-go, I’ll probably take something mid-sized in the Bronze Sea like Harvest Island to start out.
Maybe I should do some cargo runs before building, though. Those 250K-Galleon walls aren’t paying for themselves. I also need to recruit some members, as the one member I had left.
Honestly right now, I’ll see what is new in terms of getting new items or doing progression. But damn I need to learn how to find members for my clan to actively participate in the Empire Update.
