Progression principles

Food is progression

New meals and meads often matter as much as a weapon or armor upgrade.

Stations gate recipes

Upgrade the relevant crafting station when a recipe or quality level is unavailable.

Transport matters

Boats, carts, portals, and protected outposts reduce the risk of moving non-teleportable resources.

Preparation beats grinding

Rested status, resistances, terrain prep, and recovery routes are more valuable than overgrinding skills.
