Ox Is CHEAPER Than a Horse?! | Lymhurst Upgrade & Gathering Grind | Albion Online
I just wrapped up another hour in Albion Online, and this session turned out to be more interesting than I expected.
This time, I traveled to the city of Lymhurst to continue progressing my gathering journey. I had previously bought a horse for about 25,000 silver, so I assumed any upgrade from there would be more expensive. But nope — I was wrong.
The Ox I needed for “First Steps in Gathering” only cost me around 14,000 silver. Yes… cheaper than the horse. I was honestly surprised. You would think a big, heavy-duty Ox would cost more, right? Apparently not. Of course, the Ox is slower, but it carries way more weight, which makes it perfect for gathering runs.
Speaking of gathering, I finally completed the First Steps in Gathering quest. I also upgraded to Adept Leather Armor and made sure all my tools were at Journeyman tier. It feels good slowly progressing and becoming more efficient, even if gathering itself can be a bit repetitive.
And let’s be real — gathering can get boring.
So while I was farming resources, I watched a video from NerdSlayer Studios called “Death of a Game: Ashes of Creation.” It’s a deep dive into the downfall of Ashes of Creation, covering the drama, the crash, and the lawsuits that followed. The video was almost an hour long and gave a lot to think about.
It’s still unclear who is truly to blame for everything that happened. Lawsuits have been filed, and eventually the truth should come out. But one big question remains: will the players who spent money ever recover any of it? Right now, nobody really knows.
Overall, it was a productive stream. I made progress, learned something new about mounts, and had an interesting MMO discussion in the background. Not bad for an hour in Albion.
On to the next grind!
