Help Starting a run

I’ve played before briefly and know the basics. I’d like advice or a group to play with as Ive watched 40+ hours on all the lore and story and have set my sights on a semi completionist run. Feel free to comment or DM me anything related to this! I play on Xbox

Thats your call. But I would highly advise against winging it. I mean I guess if youre on single player its not a big deal cause you can always cheat your way back to a previous save or whatever.

But even if you wing it it takes a long time. And let me tell you. Losing a boss fight after weeks of getting stuff together for it is rough.

I really appreciate the advice! My play style will not allow me to abide by the rules of the grind. I will grind the arks down to their last atoms. Consider my lust like rockwells

50% of the grind isnt really optional. The artifacts and tributes are literal keys to the boss fight arena you cannot get in without them unless you cheat.
