New player general tips:
always play however you find most fun, if you're looking to be efficient or aren't sure where to start...
you get your mount at the very beginning of act IV if you want to get more mobility.
if you just do the main story (yellow quest markers), you'll be slightly under leveled by the end of the game.
get renown up at least up to level 1 for each region. The extra skill points and bonus XP are great
probably the best things to do for renown are strongholds and side quests. Strongholds are usually 100+20 renown for the included waypoint. Side quests that are also in dungeons will yield 20+30 renown
Make sure you level up your healing potions every 10ish levels!
salvaging gear will give you mats you'll really want later in the game. You'll probably have enough gold and can skip selling
I've been salvaging everything that I don't need and have been wondering - what does that even do? What do I do with the stuff I get from salvaging? Wouldn't it be better to just sell everything?
I think the general consensus so far is to salvage everything until you are close to 50 and then start selling everything. In the end game item sell value goes up but prices for everything skyrockets.
Salvaging gives you the same kind of materials you ise for upgrading weapons. You can also find these by exploring but as they said, it's easier to find hold so I just salvage everything.
