The in-game documentation seems good if you know to look for it. But as you often "don't know what you don't know", you can gloss over that thinking it hasn't changed and learn the hard way. As we only really get 3-4 hours a fortnight to play as a group, stopping to read during the game can annoy some of the group.
Maybe someone who got more time should start a singleplayer game and find out some gameplay mechanics, and explain it later to the group.
- as group you prolly suffer from good food at the beginning. You will prolly constant eat baked yucca/apple or orange slices maybe baked potatos grilled steak.
That's why it is important to have a farmer class as groupd at the beginning.
The class quest don't tell you, the farmer can craft a scrap metal hoe, with the hoe you can till dirt and plant seed's on it. Between tilling you need to have 1 row space. These space you can use for the water row. (Snowbee's video about rice farming).
Once the farmer can craft an iron hoe, he should use that to harvest plants.
- Storyline, not that important at the beginning, start with the 2.NPC at the traders, called white river scout.
You need 10 reputation with them and they will give you an open trade route job to send you to the next storyline NPC, ...
Btw. at multiplayer these scout quests can be very far away, that is a vanilla bug and can't be avoided.
- You maybe notice there are Mastery perk's for each job. There are 3 way's to get these
1. unlock it with 10 points
2. Mastery book, very rare loot drop or craftable (expensive).
3. buy the perk for 100k duke's from a trader. You need to have 29/30 reputation with the trader and the 100k dukes at the inventory before he show you the offer. (my prefered way). Each trader sell a different perk.
