I say 'kindasorta newbie' as it has been 250ish days before now since I last logged in prior to this week. But even before that point, I was at a loss for some of the game content. I have been over the wiki several times, but I've ended up getting to the conclusion that the wiki covers next to nothing on the full list of commands for the game, as well as game concepts and the like.
So... here I am, and I'm just going to ask about some of the things I'm lost on or would like to request help with. While I'm sure I could ask in the public chat.... I can't say I really feel comfortable there. Probably part of my problem in the first place, but eh.
So...
1. What is the "Craft Bounty?"
2. How do you obtain infection vials?
3. Is there a way to trade with other players, if so, how?
4. My character is level 21, why is it the only encounters I've been able to find when in direct control end up being usually enemies with 4-5x my HP and kill me in one hit?
5. What is the best way to get freecreds at my level?, (and if the answer is RPing, what is the best non-RPing method?)
6. Speaking of RPing, how do you do it in such a way that you get something out of it? It's not something that I want to do all the time in this game, but I do like RPing once in a while, so...
7. what is the best way to improve my combat effectiveness? what skills should I level / what mutations to seek out?
8. How do you get salvage off of enemies? Do they have to be in a specific area or do I need to rank up my skills to a certain extent?
9. Speaking of salvage, how best to obtain it?
10. Outside of shops, where do you find schematics?
