having the same issue, where exactly is / what depicts that you are in "the forest"
edit: also can you change the anvil in area 2 so you can make copper stuff on it? spent an hour leveling stuff to make copper gear just to find out i need to find a higher tier anvil
edit 2: also can bandage use speed be increased while out of combat? its not fun having to spend like forty seconds waiting before you enter the next square and get half of your health removed again
