Yeah, mostly play veteran and I can get things going. I'm used to buying cheap bros to get gear, daggerinh for armors and only fighting humans. My problem is simply I don't know how to make the jump from Veteran to Expert. Currently doing a Begginer/Veteran run because I do Ironman and I don't alt f4 casualties unless it's literally my best bro that does all the work (Its day 49 and I have 20 casualties). I'm simply trying to find a way in understanding how people get used to the very beginning of early game where they need to rapidly get gear or the scaling takes off and the run becomes a simple game of grinding back up to what was once what you had.(Also cultists are cool but holy shit do they suck at everything besides resolve)
