Ehm.. how to actually start?

Postby Bananaboi » Sat Apr 03, 2010 9:31 am

Hey i've seen this game yesterday on youtube and i cried cause it looked good. Now i've got this game and i'm not getting further at all.:(
I've made this bed and this leanto and some campfires but i lost my dream to make a heartfire :roll:. Anyway i got 1 point in farming skill and 1 in the will of power.
What do i do now? Just make useless campfires till i get more LP and then buy more skills or..? Someone please take a min to look at this and help me out yes?

Thanks for now.

there will be a lot more crying before you're through.

build looms and campfires and whatever gives the best LP until you can get more skills. Most people b-line for yeomanry so they can set up a claim and build palisade walls. chopping trees gives pretty good lp. moving your tradition/change slider towards change will give better LP for every task performed, same goes for the peace/martial slider towards peace.

I'm just going to say this now to save you some crying: claim one tile beyond your palisade walls when you get to that point.

edit: you really don't need to grind for LP, you can get it from doing regular things like picking wild herbs (you need foraging iirc). after the first couple of skills, grinding isn't super necessary anymore. branches stop giving LP after your first thousand LP or something like that, too.
i guess they never miss huh

Ok to get a dream catcher you need to get 2 skills, foraging and hearth magic.
once you get the foraging skills you should start to see things on the ground.
You will need to find at least one tap root or stinging nettle, the looks like either a brown lump on the ground or a plant that has a lot of white dots on it.

Once you have hearth magic and one of those herbs you can build a dream catcher which will let you harvest dreams, though you will have to wait a little bit after you initialy make the catcher before you can get a dream.
