Free chests suck

I tried to open them again today, seeing as it has been more than a month since I last tried, but to no avail. Both were empty.

Slight change

I've decided to change how I evaluate the "unfulfilled needs" section of each report. I barely had time to play today, and most of the unfulfilled needs from yesterday are still there, so I feel like I'm double counting them.

From this point on:
- Unfulfilled needs are not going to be tracked before Level 20 or all quests prior to Consulate Docks are completed (whichever comes first)
- They will be calculated as a "virtual deficit" stating how much gold it would take to purchase the basic equipment that is still missing.

I Hate Collectors

I have a major problem with the the low level collectors! The same thing happened when I went through prophesies the first time. Collectors give armour and weapons appropriate for the areas that they are located in, and take items found in those areas. But by the time you've managed to collect 5 pieces of harpy poop or whatever they want, you've moved onto the next area and everything they give is instantly obsolete!

This exact thing happened to me, I was just getting ready to trade my AR25 Kamadan armour in for AR40 collector armour, when I suddenly reach Black Tide den and AR40 is substandard. Having to sell all those items that I'd been meticulously keeping was infuriating to say the least!
