BEFORE PLAY THE GAME, READ THIS 1ST POST ... IT WILL SAVE YOU FROM A LOT OF TROUBLE ... AND REGRET ...
!!! MAINLY AT POINT 4, 13 and 14,15,20. READ THAT FIRST IF YOU TOO LAZY TO READ ALL OF THIS !!!

please mention and "trick" in your play ...
for me :

1. Wealthy Farmer (and Baker)
Requirement : (Need at least Farming Lv.1 Skill)
Plant Wheat, Harvest it and Grind it ... Mix it with Water and Bake it at Oven or Firecamp ...
Sell it for some money ...

2. Tree for All (for trader which don't accept buying food from us)
Requirement : (you can do this WITHOUT ANY SKILL, or rather ... probably Default Skill Carpenter Lv.1 which you get at start)
Logging Tree near Wisp is quite profitable, also after that I can craft it to Tight Bow (recipe buy from Fox) and selling it for some money ...

3. Hijack NPC field
Requirement : (Need at least Farming Lv.1 Skill)
Almost 20% NPC in Balrum have farming field, NPC won't mind if you use their farming field, planting it, watering and fertilizing it ... but they get piss off if you HARVEST it, just steal it when they are not looking or when they sleeping ... *evil smile*

4. Keeping LP for latter usage
Requirement : Patience and information about Book of Skill
Threat :

it's a good way in this Balrum gameplay, since developer might add or remove Skill Book. (I'm one of player which have "keeping skill / Ability point for latter use")

5. Hijack NPC Farm
Requirement : Patience and know about what animal farm feed and product
NPC won't mind if you Feed their animal, this will make them produce more result, Like in Osric chicken farm and pig farm. Putting Seed and extra corn seems will make them produce more. You can freely take Manure from pig place. But for eggs, better be careful since Osric will KILL you if you egging in front of him. Also DON'T KILL THEIR LIFESTOCK, IT WON'T RENEW LIKE AT YOUR PLACE !!!
Bug (?) : Fox Spider farm won't result any web even if you feed them meat (?)

6. Limitation in one Area Detailed Test in ver 1.05.
Requirement : LP spending management
Certain place have their limitation for SKILL and BASE STAT training.
starting place limit Skill (Farming, Cooking, Archery, etc) up to 2 FOR THE WHOLE AREA/CHAPTER.
Ex: If you start without any skill, and learn farming (Osric and Ida) then you can learn TWICE from any of them, the other will lose their option to train. If you already have one Farming Skill, then it will be only once training.

while basic ability (VIT,STR,DEX,INT,WIS) is ONE TIME DEAL FOR THE WHOLE AREA/CHAPTER.
Ex: Osric, Aron and Jones Teach STR increase, but if you use their skill EVEN ONCE AT ANY OF THEM, the other won't teach anymore

7. Power of Appetite
Requirement : Skillful Gameplay
Most user don't like Hunger and Thirst, BUT ... if you already learn cooking and can create cheap yet powerful food, this might become your advantage instead. Eating too full will cause vomit, however if you get hungry faster then it will be okay t eat earlier without vomiting ...
(normal difficulty without checking slower Hunger and Thirst will do good enough)

8. Help from NPC
Requirement : Skillful Gameplay and know NPC Schedule
NPC won't join you or something, but if hostile monster come closer they will attack it ...
NPC IS STRONG, try to pit it 1x1 with monster and NPC can win it very easily, don't expect it will win onslaught 3x1 tough ...
(NPC can even WIN AGAINST SPECIAL MONSTER AT THE SAME LEVEL WITH THEM 1X1)
and when I said 1x1, it's WITHOUT US/MC HELPING THEM (NPC HP can become 3x than MC, even with all point on VIT) ...
and I already test this few times ...
Try to lure the enemy at village AT DAY, NPC will attack the monster and you just need to support fire it to get the EXP ...

9. VERY PRECIOUS Hidden Stash at Small Place Like Wooden Log
Requirement : Careful attention and know where the most important item located
This is quite unexpected, there's even few stash at wooden log ... and it usually quite precious ...
the problem is, MOST wooden just an ornament and won't have anything inside it, thus mostly unrecognized ...
THE LATEST INFO I HEARD, ONE OF WOODEN LOG HAVE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE (+1LP) ...

YOU CAN DETECT IF SOMETHING A CONTAINER OR NOT BY PUTTING CURSOR ON THEM, HOWEVER THIS WON'T WORK IF YOU ARE WALKING ... YOU NEED TO STAND STILL TO DO THIS ... DISTANCE DOESN'T MATTER ...
Container (empty) - Cursor will goes stand (White)
Container (filled) - Cursor will goes stand (Green)

10.Find Better way to Solve Quest
I notice, the "better way" to solve quest, the more EXP you will obtain ...
this is VERY PRECIOUS since EXP from quest is VERY BIG ... (You can get 500-1500 more EXP)
Ex :
If you solve Silver Bark Quest first, then you can get further at quest to find medicine ...
(the result of quest still seems bad tough)
Or ...
Healing Troll is better than killing it ...
Or ...
Leading Stray Pig to Orsen is better than shooting it (even if you know it is a trap) ...
etc, etc ...
