== The Building Begins ==
'''Remember these things:''' You will not die from hunger but you will become very slow in everything. You can ''/suicide'' to go get food during your first 24 hours that you play. You can [[Starving|fast]] at least once, gaining a full food bar at the loss of body weight.
Then you should make [[string of cloth]] and then you should make [[fishing rod]] or [[fine fishing rod]]. You should make as many of these as you can from your first lump of cotton.
Always Fish then Repair your rod then Fish again. Fishing rods are easily damaged but can feed you for months if you take care of them.
First, read all of these: [[Useful links for beginners | New Player Guides ]]
It is vital to understand how to cook! High skill is not necessary but you do need to make sure you read the various cooking guides. [[Casserole]] is recommended for the new player since it tends to decay more slowly and has reasonable nutrition value.
* 20 Smithing - invaluable skill but get your mining higher before you dedicate yourself to raising this one
* 20 Masonry - may seem not so important but a ql 20 forge is so much better than a campfire - this skill can really work wonders - at higher levels its awesome. Raise it by making walls and improving your [[Forge]], [[Oven]] and [[Coffin]]s
* 20 Fine Carpentry - not a great skill in many ways but spamming and imping barrels means you can make good ql [[practice doll]]'s (these are good for [[fighting skill]]skill) and you will have a much easier job of making a [[bed]]
* 8 Fighting - it helps you survive but this skill is very hard to raise - use a QL 1 shaft on practice doll at the start
* Animal Taming - its fun and eventually the animals you gain as pets can be awesome - but this is not a priority skill
Eventually, though, you will almost certainly find yourself doing the things described here and asking yourself 'What now?'
Honestly, you really do need to have a bit of that pioneering spirit, the ability to be self motivated and the courage to formulate and pursue your own goals.
For myself I have mostly found that a fairly natural process though. You build your house and you realise that you need or want some tool, weapon, bit of furniture or more space to farm in .. and there you have your goal. Terraform a large space for fields. Make your house bigger so that you have more storage space. Make a better weapon so that you can kill better or some armour so that you dont die quite so quickly again.
So there is plenty to do before that 20 cap means that you have done it all. And along the way you always have the chance to make some cash working for another player.
=== Premium ===
As a premium player with high skill, the potential to make money selling your handiwork to other players is much greater. You can become financially self sufficient inside the game without spending real money. Its difficult but its been done by many hard working, perseverant players.
