Common Beginner Questions
Should I fight Tree Sentinel immediately?
No. Get Torrent, map coverage, upgrades, and the Physick first, then return later.
What stats should I level?
Level Vigor early, meet weapon requirements, then support one main damage direction. Avoid spreading every damage stat at once.
Is a hard boss always a level problem?
Not always. Weapon upgrades, flask strength, Physick mixes, talismans, and whether the boss is optional often matter more.
