Then, in which order should I do Fisherman/Forager/Hunter? I'm kind of a min-maxer to the point where I don't do some stuff if I can't do it the best way.

This is the order I did mine in. I started with hunter because it was the least stat dependent and I'm a master of cheesing animals at this point, but I'd start with fisher first on a main to save yourself few extra levels of headache. Followed by forager and then hunter.

I did most of it based on the perceived benefits I'd get from each, but if I were to do this on a main without suiciding I would likely do the gardener/farmer credos sooner rather than later

Nomad you definitely want to rush ASAP because every quest gives a questgiver that is on the other side of the world so the fewer quests you need to do the better.

Cave hermit and mystic were very helpful for what I was doing. Mystic cut the exp cost for hearth magic/cutting the curio timers down to about 1075 exp instead of 1500 each and cave hermit increases study speed by up to 15% when AFKing on lvl 5, so I used that quite a bit as well.

The suicide mechanic is broken (which is why I abused the shit out of it while I could), but doing credos normally is just as broken if not more.

I'd like to see 3 quest options attached to each credo quest, similar to how the numen system currently works. Every quest would come with 3 options. The first 2 options, if completed, would increase your credo progression by one quest point towards your current level. The last quest option would not give additional quest points once completed, but it will instead re-roll the three quests at no loss to you.

At the moment the meta is to just abandon any bullshit quests like "tame x animal" or "experience y resource" in the hopes of getting good RNG on the rerolls. I'd like to give people more options when doing credo to make it more of a fun thing to do instead of what it currently is, which is almost pure luck.

After doing something similar to this I would add that the rate the quest requirements increase is a little absurd. I feel the first credo should take 1 quest per stage. The following credos should increase by 1 quest per stage.

eg: 2 credos = 10 quest, 3 = 15 quests.

This is still a pretty big ramp up but at current rates to complete all credos without using alts you are required to do 160 quests. The way I suggested would be 80 quest to complete the final credo.

I was staying at a friend's base when I did all of the credo suiciding, and yes we lived in a cave for the most part

What stats did you start with? A completely fresh toon with no stats?

What stats did you end with?

Which credo did you Abandon the most quests? The fewest?

If you were to do it again, what would you do differently?

Did you use any bat dungeon rewards to skip quests?

I probably abandoned pearler quests the most since every 2nd one was to experience or to harvest a mother of pearl. Mystic had the potential for a lot of abandons as well but I got lucky and didn't have to experience anything difficult. Actually, suiciding made the experience quests fairly easy though since the first time seeing them after inherit was almost 100% experience rate. The problem comes up when you get a 2nd quest asking you to experience the same thing.

If I were to do it again I'd likely push for cave hermit before doing the farming quests, just because of the increased study speed while on lvl 5.

These were my starting stats after inheriting the last character

And these are the stats today

Also since getting the credos and some stats, I've spawned 3 trolls
