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.

You get 2 short rests that helps recover hit points and some spells on certain classes. Save anytime you feel you had a good result with some roll or before and after a fight.

I have been poor because I am selling everything I find and buying magic gear for my team. It is easy to pick up an old plate and mark it as wares. Then when you visit a merchant there is a option to sell all wears.

If I pick up a magic arrow I send it to my bow person so he has that ready for fights.

If you look back in this community there was a post on combat that I learned a lot watching. Let me find it.

It's easy to miss this since the trade screen defaults to barter. But at the top of the screen, you need to switch from barter to trade in order to get the option to "Sell all wares"
