So me and two other people just started playing H&H three days ago and we're working together to eke out a living...

My question is, whats an optimal method of gaining LP that doesn't involve mass deforestation?
Since we have three people, we're thinking of some specializations.. like farming and hunting. However, since these characters are new it doesn't like like we can do either effectively.
As I'm not the designated farmer, I'm looking for a method that scales, is fun, and has decent LP gain.
For that matter, what's a good LP/hour rate anyways? For early/mid/late game.

Thanks,
Wolfe
