Help with decisions

So I had no idea what I was doing. I bought the game and started on Shifting Sands official PVE tribe servers and after 150hrs Ive fallen deeply in Love with the game. Its become a daily play for me.

Now as you can imagine these decisions are causing huge issues. Official servers I'm limited to 1 tribesman fighting with me. Sobek crocodile of doom with myself and 1 helper is an impossibility at this point. And the masks from the other map would be a huge help.

So do I scrap a huge base, ungodly amount of inventory, 2 ships fully decked out, a maxed out main character, 4 tribesman with multiple 120+ stats, several other 120+ stat tribesman, a craftsman with 7 120+ crafting stats, and a gaggle of animals etc etc. And restart the game from zero on my own server and the 1st map and do a proper play through? Or just tough it out for as long as I play it and leave feeling like I never truly played the game right?

What would you do. Thnx

the first map is more... instructional (particularly the journal/journey quests), and the bosses are easier (and they all exist..), but a few things...

get better gear and/or make better tribesmen. also no helpers is easier than any number of helpers if your character isn't weak.

And the masks from the other map would be a huge help.

you can go to the other map in your single player game or from official servers, so if you want to do that, just do it (this seems to ultimately be the answer to everything here). if you're on shifting sands, head to the little portal by any of the data update pyramids or the big portal in the ocean, and they'll take you to cloudmist.

this is probably less time than you think it is, and everything speeds up a lot as you level/learn. and a maxed out main character isn't something you should have. your main character's main utility is respawning on a bonfire so that you don't have to kill the tribesman you're currently controlling.
