Wandering unready
New players march into the wild with nothing. Catch a Pal, build a base, then explore. Preparation is the whole game.
Ignoring elements
Hitting a Pal’s resist feels like a broken gun. Match elements and fights end in seconds instead of minutes.
Hoarding junk
A pack full of the wrong resource is dead weight. Gather to a plan, not to a full bar.
No base
Sleeping in the open invites death. A small walled base with a fire changes everything.
Forgetting ammo
A ranged gun with no ammo is a stick. Check the weapon database and pack what your gun eats.
Skipping the Pal
Players fight alone and burn out. A caught Pal flips the early game, so catch before you conquer.
Rushing the boss
A tower boss punishes under-gearing. Clear the region and level first, then take the fight.
Dying far out
A death far from base costs your pack. Keep trips short until the base is safe and stocked.
