Hello gentelmen, its like my first week here. I've created a new earthling after my first character was killed by some random dude for no reason at all..

These are my current stats.

I'm living in a self created village with 6 other friends of mine. Their stats are not better than mine, though each of us are focused on something.
What I'm going to say, I'm willing to be able to hunt some boars and such. What should I do to improve my requested skills (I don't even know what to improve) I'd be really thankful if you could feed me with some useful ideas and suggestions. Also I see people with overrated skills like "Carpentry 100" Woah man, thats some real shit. I mean 100000 LP spent on one particular skill. Perhaps there is some source of LP that I haven't realised yet?

I know these are regular newcomer questions and are asked like 10 times/day, but meh :D
Thanks in advance.

How do you find out how much LP you have got in total?

I'd say focus on your exploration until at least 10 points. If you can stay with it until 20-30 points even better. Thats a good baseline stat for any hearthling who needs to find his own curios to study.

If on the other hand you have an explorer who is supplying the rest of you and wish to not invest in the standard skills first post again and describe the village structure in more detail :)

Your fine skill wise, but for incrementables raise exploration to at least 40 if not higher. It might seem like a lot, but it helps a lot in the long run. Maybe raise survival a little. Personal Beliefs wise, go full life, Animals have no HHP because loftar is too lazy to take it out. Go full civil, your INT is low and you need the boost. Go full peaceful, it raises your LP gain. Some of this is preferance and village layout, but this about the normal.

Mmmm, if it's your first week you probably don't have 100+ INT and access to decent Q metal curios. When you get to that point, you pull in 100-200k lp per day quite easily. As for my suggestions \/ Check my beginner guide out. It's lengthy though so if you're not the reading type you might wanna skim it.

my int is almsot at 50, and even without metal curios, just the good quality mountain ones and flotsams etc i can generally get 100k lp per day now, if i log in to change curios around.

my advice to you: up your intelligence, its ur only way to icnrease your e with lp
exploration is VITAL, without it you wont find any decent curios to raise that lp, especially is ure not in a self sustaining village with metal

I've read your whole topic buddy, it is well written. I already have made some decisions by your suggestions there.
Gathering 100-200k lp/day is quite dreamy for me at this very moment though.

I see I should improve my exploration and INT, already working on exploration but, how do I improve INT? Food? If yes, it seems like I'm going to be an obese :lol:

Thanks for the tips guys, really appreciated. I'm here if you have more of them. Do you think my progress in 3 days is good?

Oh, about the village structure, 3 farmers and 2 cooks, they do nothing but farm farm farm and cook cook cook. Me and another friend of mine are the only ones going out in the jungle and doing the dirty work :D So, what I need is jungle skills that you need while exploring and hunting them beasts.

Alt fishing for int is good. Get a new alt, discover enough for fishing, give him the best pole/lure/string/hook your main can make, afk fishing for 30 mins at a time. Haul back the catch to your main to butcher and cook.

Alternative is eating blueberries / making blue berry pie.
