    Hi everyone,

    I recently started playing Drakensang and have been exploring the game while completing some of the main quests. I’m currently level 13 and still learning the basics.

    Since many of you are experienced MMO players and long-time veterans of the game, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. Could you please share some beginner-friendly tips, best practices, or strategies that would help me progress more efficiently?

    Any advice regarding leveling, gear, skills, or general gameplay would be extremely helpful. I’m keen to build good habits early and make steady progress.
    Thank you in advance :)

    Hey, let me know your server so I maybe be able to help! In general, do all yellow (story quests), reach level 100 asap (in higher difficulty maps-in team is faster-using pet or even better at parallel world for later though), dont waste ander but only use them when needed, sell or melt items, melt the runes-gems you dont want, unlock space in inventory or storage guy, save your lockpicks for hgher difficulty maps, built 1hand built for start, put platinum or even gold lines at your items(focusing on crit, dmg and attck speed) and more. Most important is quests and reach level 100 but better find a level 100 friend to help you do that stuff way faster and easier.
