Much of this game's progression is heavily dependent on the Luya Taoist (warlock) boss quests. You can't progress the main quest without virtue, and warlock's quests are the most efficient means of farming virtue.

My suggestion is to make it such that if you complete a quest for warlock, that same quest can't be given again immediately after. An example would be if you kill Lion Camel King, he shouldn't immediately ask you to kill Lion Camel King again. He should give you a different quest objective.

The reasoning behind this is that in the midgame, on impossible/hard at least, time is the enemy. Your run can get destroyed simply because warlock decides to give you the same quest objective 4 times in a row, and you're just left sitting around with no good objectives.

You might say that it's a good idea to go farm other bosses during that downtime, but once again, it comes down to warlock. If I go kill the great god of the three altar seas for kicks, warlock might just decide to have me kill her again on the next roll of this quest. Once again, I'm left with wasted time.


On a final note, why is Wang Mu Marmoset in the same warlock quest group as Qing Long and Millenium Snow Demon? If you get told to go kill Wang Mu Marmoset right after you complete the Deblocking Stage, your run just got ruined.
