I am not really a "completionist" when it comes to games... I play how I play and if I happen to come across something compelling... some quest or achievement... than I am happy... but I can't say I go out of my way to complete something just for the sake of completing it.
A good example is the Targets of Opportunity in the Wilderness... It seems like something I should have done as part of completing the instances there, but for some reason I still have a significant number of things to do. Last night I found myself with a little extra time so I thought I would give it a try.
The main issue is travel. If you are running around cherry-picking certain requirements here and there, you become very aware of how LONG it can take to get places. Luckily I keep a very good set of Motorized armor around so I can quickly swap into it for longer journeys (this helps alot) but it would still be great to get a mount or a jet pack or something.
Even after an hour and a half of crisscrossing the Wilderness, I still find myself short on a few items from the Targets of Opportunity. Also puzzling is that it says I have one more story item to complete, but I have played all the instances... so I don't know what I missed... frustrating.
Hi there! I'll bet you missed the Pirate Radio mission inside Pravus, or some of the stuff in the pit area of Daghda's Urn. We have guide on our site if you'd like to check them out to see.
Welcome to the Tabula Rasa family!

Guides - with an 's.'
That's what I get for hitting Post too quickly.

How are you liking this game? I have been out of the MMORPG world for a while now but have been thinking of getting into another one.
It looks like I can pay $50 from PlayNC to get the game immediately or pay $20 plus shipping on Amazon to get the Collector's Edition and wait a week until it shows up. I will check around and make sure the specs on my laptop will support the game before I get it.

@Wink, I am definitely digging it. I wish I had more time to play it... but things are hectic. We got Syndelin to get involved though! I would say do the $20 if you can.. the cheaper the better!
