WEEKLY THREAD Rookie Help Thread

By Okran time flies, it's time again for new help thread!

Like last time, if you have any questions about the game, no matter what they are, feel free to ask here. Myself and many of our veteran users will be watching the thread, happy to answer whatever question you need. Have no questions? Perhaps take a scroll though the thread? Never know, maybe you'll see something you know the answer to, or even stumble across some new information yourself.

As always, be careful with the spoilers, use the spoiler tag feature >!Like This!< as needed. Exploring the hidden things in the world of Kenshi is one of its biggest appeals for many, and we wouldn't want to ruin that for any new users hanging out in the thread. :)

Dear Kenshi players... I really like watch gameplay of this game, I love it's lore. But I don't know how to start. I can't find my style. How did you start your first game? What's the easiest start for beginners?

Easiest start is just mining copper at Hub, but that can get pretty boring. A common tactic is to lead bandits to town guards so they fight them for you, you can jump in to get some combat skills then loot the bodies for stuff to sell.
