New Player questions - Long live Catskills!!

All or one.
New arrivals can't regardless of numbers.
While the really good heroes can solo it.

But what you want us watch for Skulls on a pole or stacked next to entrances. That is the difficulty of the thing 1-5 where 5 is end game.

Also watch the color of the name tag. Red=run

 

In the Soltown graveyard there is a crypt leading to the catacombs. If you don't venture too far in then those are ok if you party up with a group.
Why you want to party up even if adventuring with friends is because you get bonus XP per party member.

 

Why not try out Lux's Rifthikers?

A friendly bunch of people who likes helping folks enjoy the world.

We also have a town (Lux Sanctuary) and some chapter/guild houses spread over the continent.

And no hard feelings if you move on somewhere else.

 

Is there a recipe for a metal ingot how do you get one?

 

Ingot mold from vendor, located by crafting areas. Owl's head has one in the crafting pavilion by the public vendor. You can find them in nearly every town.

The recipe can be purchased by the cow in the street at owls head, from the building where the skills trainer is outside.

 

Welcome to the game. Live long and prosper

 

I think the Ardoris sewers are a little easier going than the Soltown ones, however either way you should soon level up far enough that both are relatively straightforward if you avoid the demon.

If you can find your way to Braemar in the Hidden Vale there's a dungeon there (same layout as Soltown) that gradually increases in difficulty as you go through it. Note that no-one I know has been able to do the second last room since they added magical resistances to the enemies a few releases back, but it's a fun dungeon to do every so often to see if you can progress further than last time.
