Hi, As you can see from the title, I am looking for a novel similar to "to aru ossan no vrmmo katsudoki". To be more specific: A novel where the MC uses methods considered unconventional or plain weird to fight/play the game. For example: The MC in to aru ossan wanted to use the bow, which is considered on of the weakest weapons in the game. He, instead of using something else, used the crafting system to overcome this handicap and eventually even becomes one of the stronger players in the game. Another example would be "The Man Picked up by the Gods" Where the MC uses monsters that are looked down upon(slimes) to fight in an overpowered way. While not necessary, I would ultimately prefer it if the novel did contain the game-like setting most vrmmo novels and some alternate world novels have. I don't have any problem with RRL, aside from the infinite hiatus and author going MIA problems.
Legendary Moonlight Sculptor? Because guy gets a special sculpting class which is considered useless but actually quite OP Also dabbles a lot in crafting He used to be solo but has some friends now. For major quests though he usually uses NPCs and his own monster things. Main method of training is grind, grind, and grind some more. Hardworking protagonist but very miserly unlike Earth lol Even their names are similar Earth - Weed
There's also Ark and it's sequel Ark The Legend which are also set in VRMMO and are quite similar to Legendary Moonlight Sculptor.
