So using buffs, a good set of armor and tools oiled you can farm 50-52 stones in a hit and at the same time to defeat any enemy that goes in your way. In places like this you will need to go prepared, you cannot trust bedrolls since the temperature effects are so extreme that if for some reason you have a delay on loading you will find your self dieing constantly.

One of the best places to farm stones is volcano (in exile lands). What I mean by that is that yesterday I decided to farm some stones for 45 minutes. So buffs will help you succeed a better quality of “life” in the game. I love light armors because I play with a female character and light armors are damn sexy (please don’t take this comment as a sexist statement, but as a compliment to the designers). In any case is how you have fun what matters the most. So the way I see it your chooses about armors and thralls are effecting how you want to play your game today. If your thrall does not make a lot of damage you will have to engage more or if it makes a lot with a good hp pool you can step aside and drink a coffee. Heavy armors will make you a bit lazy and more brutal to fights, wearing an epic heavy armor set you can engage with less fear. Medium armors will do almost the same with more safety. Light armors will make you a better fighter and train you better avoiding damage by learning all the moves the mobs have. I think covered you beautifully, so I will share only my game play without saying that this is the option, it is just my option and nothing more than that.
