This is a real problem,yes. Since the newspawn mortality rate is so very high, nobody will care much until you're a bit older. I didn't do a lot of RPing, but I tried to stay awake and be helpful. Don't expect to be given any important task or valuable tool until atleast a couple of years (Sad but true).
Can't give you much help, since I got ignored pretty much until age 25 myself.

Different places carry different opportunities. The key is other players. If you get a circle of loyal friends, you can accomplish just about anything in Cantr.

Location is a biggie. I spawned in a thriving port town and I was given a steel rapier and iron shield right-off. Of course, I shipped with a generous privateer.

Correct. Group of 5 of us in some desolate place are achieving insane and incomprehendable dominance-related results from teamwork.. including defeating a 70-year-old tyrant who killed people who didn't speak English.

:lol: Well at least we know they are following some of the others advice. Lets hope they don't start trying to kill the leaders and become the new ones like a few o here suggested. :wink:

Have anyone here suggested sucking up? I wouldn't want to work for someone who would fall for that. Being helpful and alert is quite different from sucking up, imo.
Though I must say I haven't tried, neither will I anytime soon.
