I don’t usually play tabletop and DnD, so I’m a little bit overwhelmed by everything going on all at once a couple hours into the game. I’m having fun playing as Lae’zel, and kind of going with it and have played quite a bit of D:OS2 years back, but I can’t help but feel like I’m messing things up somehow and might need to reroll a character later on.
Any beginner tips or things that made the game more enjoyable for you? Anything that took you way too long to realize? Didn’t see another thread anywhere else, but apologies if this thread already exists.
Little to no spoilers please.
Sometimes you might want to (there are areas where you can’t return to camp without leaving, and some of those areas you might not want/be able to leave before completing them), and you can be attacked in your camp, depending on decisions you make.
Generally though, yeah. If you feel like a scroll/potion/spell/resource/etc will help you in this fight, don’t be shy about spending it. Just maybe don’t go wandering too much, if you find yourself low on resources. :P
Other thing to note, is that combat will feel clunky before you hit level five. That’s where you start getting your heavy hitting spells, buffs and abilities, making additional attacks per round, etc. It’s hard to screw up a character in 5e (unless you’re multiclassing, then there are some trap choices), but everyone will feel a little weak early on.
