I think the Cheaper Meteor perk in the ability tree will be pretty useful for you. It costs just one point and is on the first page which I think you skipped over initially. That squid guys voice acting was 10/10 ngl lmao
Haven't finished up the vid yet but just in case you didn't find out: You activate powder specials with shift and left click when the bar is full. You lose all bar charge if you switch weapons though! Edit: Lmao yep you found it. But the charge thing is still worth noting.
I think you should be organizing your bank, the earlier the better. Bcs as you progress you need a lot of space and being organize save you time and better quality of life lol. Sold stuff that you dont need to the blacksmith, trademarket, etc ps dont be like me lol, i had to organize everything that cost me more than an hour later in the endgame
starting at 25:55 there was one pufferfish in the river at the wall and a few moments later in the house quite literally taunting you but they are very easy to miss so the quest can be a bit awkward each element of the powders has a unique special attack but as far as im aware only quake is really used the others are not as good appearently powders decrease neutral damage but always increase their elemental damage by more so your net dps goes up normally if you do the quests in the level order they nicely guide you to naturally explore the map so normally finding stuff wouldnt be that difficult the quests around Llevigar are a bit special they are the introduction to the gavel province which is overall quite different to wynn in the level 40 to 60 range there might be a lot of hopping between the provinces which can be a little awkward so id recommend focusing a bit on wynn before heading over to gavel till like level 50
I'm completing this tip (Walltext incoming) Earth powder gives Quake. It's basically a AOE attack that deals earth dmg Thunder powder gives Chain Lightning. It's a chain attack (hits nearby targets too) that deals thunder dmg Water powder gives Curse. It's an attack that deals a bit of water dmg and also reduces the enemy defense for a few seconds. Fire powder gives Courage. It deals a bit of fire dmg and also increases your damage for a few seconds(also affects nearby allies) Air powder gives Wind Prison. This one deals air dmg and "stuns" the enemies. During the stun, your next hit to that stunned enemy deals incredibly high damage (Keep in mind that bosses can't be stunned, they will receive more damage as well but won't get the stun)
Oh, and powder charge depends on your attack speed, the lower your attack speed, the faster you recharge the powder attack. Ex: a super slow weapon can charge powder specials in just 3 hits
