* Botany's ability to make tannin tea can't be understated TEMPORARYDASHCHARACTER antiseptic is really useful towards long term survival. If you don't have tannin tea then you'll have to make due with whiskey. Don't neglect your cuts, and although you ideally want both boiled rags and antiseptic doing something is better than doing nothing at all.

* Secret Noob Build: <div class="spoiler">Strong, Melee, Trapping, Botany, Myopia Flaw, Fast Metabolism Flaw.

* For a much easier start, <div class="spoiler">go seven hexes north of the Cryo center, to Zom Zom's, and give your bracelet to the guy at the end of the event, without asking about the deal</div>.
