I just died, and it was amazing.

Oh, and Moe is right. Get a job. I'd suggest a Noble House since you already have a PC going. Human tribals if you start a new one. Loads of fun either way.

Some noble houses are OK for newbies (mainly the martially inclined ones).  Others aren't.

Tribals are not a good newbie choice, if they'd even be accepted.  Tribal characters need to have a lot of background knowledge.

For a player interested in exploring the outdoors, I'd suggest one of the Great Merchant Houses (Salarr, Kadius, Kurac).  The T'zai Byn Mercenary Company is also a wonderful clan for new players.

Meh. Sorry Moe. Your Rightness percent rating has dropped from 90 to 89%. I played a human tribal on my second or third PC. It was awesome. Learned a lot and found it to be a really good environment for me as a new player for lots of reasons I can't say here. But that was me. And perhaps things have changed now as well. It's been a while.

Byn is nice I suppose, just not a fan personally.

The T'zai Byn Mercenary Company is also a wonderful clan for new players.

I am a fan.

Join the Byn! Go on contracts around the world! Food and water while you train!

P.S. The rules aren't there for meanness. The rules are there to keep new players alive long enough to see some depth of the world.

P.P.S. And yes, with enough experience, you'll find yourself jumping through [redacted] and fighting [redacted] behind your PC leaders, yowling "Woohoo!"

Right, Lieutenant Raul? [The Eternal Porn-stache'd Leader]

Rules? We have rules?

Krath....that explains it.

Ooph. I, funnily enough, managed to accomplish the foot travel from 'nak to Tuluk (and the preposterous number of things that -didn't kill me is still my favorite story yet).

Gibbed by (redacted) and lag thirteen days worth of playtime later on a routine run.. I am a fully adult male, and I damn near wept. SO. MUCH. POTENTIAL!

It's been so much fun to play. When my emotional trauma is done, I'll be glad to try again. Definitely agree with OP, Arm offers a lot that just can't be had elsewhere.

Another one bites the dust gets hooked! Yay!

Sounds like you had a very good run -- next time, though, try to resist the urge to post about a recent death. I know it's hard.

Or maybe you already thought of this and this all happened a while ago.

Either way, you just risk being GDB-account sniffed, which is usually not a good thing.

....You tried to -walk- from Tuluk to 'Nak with a new PC as a new player??

This guy had some big balls to try that.
