But you've hit the nail on the head; I don't play in groups. To my experience, groups of players are invariably in way to big a hurry (or, from their perspective, I drag my ass a lot). There is also an inclination to assume that everyone in a group knows what they're supposed to be doing, so there's low tolerance for newb mistakes. It all depends on the group you're with, of course, but finding someone who has the patience to show me the ropes is not an easy thing. Fortunately, soloing seems to be fairly viable. Monster populations around the town Dearic is almost ridiculously low, which IMO is a bit odd since it's no great matter to have more non-aggressive yellows spawning (although I suppose if that were the case, players wouldn't need to go far enough out to even need a scout's camping skills).I'm trying to work towards Org Chem III so I can heal secondary damage. Good advice, thanks!Well, in Dearic there is not a high population of players. There usually are very few local resources available at the bazaar. That is actually a role looking to fill: I want to be the ultimate forager (it occurs to me that should actually be a true hybrid profession, so that other players can use the Search function to get in touch with them). I have a TV next to my PC, so I don't get bored just sitting around. Heck, I'm surveying right now as I type this post and wathc "The Wire". I am the quintessential casual gamer. Hopefully, other players won't be too self-sufficient.When there are monsters around, I just harvest a few of them, then when my health bar gets low, I'll survey and pick up some inorganic comps. Since there aren't many comps available at the bazaar, I've been able to sell mine easily enough through instant sales. I'll have to see how auctions work out.Data resources? Can you tell me more, or do you know where I can find out more about this? Yes, it's a great game. I've only been playing it a couple of days, so I can't be too complimentary (I remember how Earth & Beyond suckered me in). Met lots of great people. Might move on to a more populated town once I'm durable enough to go out into the wilds alone.</blockquote>
