Myth of Empires Early Play Tips
Gather everything
You’ll start unlocking new recipes every minute, so it helps that you already have material collected. So make sure to grab EVERYTHING.
Choose and keep track of your “expertise points”
As you play through the game, you’ll earn points that go toward your expertise. Leveling your expertise in a certain skill will help you level at a much quicker rate, helping you progress down its skill tree much faster. The sooner you spend your expertise points the more value you’ll get from them!
Throw rocks
Seriously, don’t underestimate throwing stones. As boring as they sound (which it doesn’t), throwing stones are actually quite useful at the start of the game when you need to hunt and/or stun attacking creatures.
Learn to block and block often
When in combat, you don’t need a shield to block – while you may take some damage when blocking without a shield, surviving early combat encounters is a priority and blocking can save your life.
Pay attention and complete missions for early survival rewards As you begin the game you will get several simple tutorial missions (i.e. gather X number of resources, build a campfire, etc.). Every time you complete a mission you get bonus survival rewards of additional resources as well as unlocking new recipes. In short, DO YOUR MISSIONS!
Place map markers
It’s easy to lose track of where you built your campfire, especially when you’re hunting for food (or being chased by potential food). So be sure to use map markers to note key locations. Open the map and you’ll be able to set markers that you and party members can see.
Guilds/Alliances
Guilds and alliances play a pivotal role in your journey, serving as a cornerstone for pooling resources and exchanging vital information. This collaboration is key to successfully navigating challenging environments and building your empire. Moreover, you have the creative freedom to craft a unique identity for your Guild, from selecting a distinctive name to designing a banner.
