It's all in the charm of ENB lol. The game was certainly never easy starting out and it takes a very long time to learn, so long that people may not stick around. New people really need to rely on the community. This game really is not a solo game until you have multiple 150's, which could take months for casuals. I recommend trying to find someone who has navs and get a tour group with that 1 experienced player and 5 new characters for a tour, which will net an easy 20 explore lvls. After that try to get to another 15 lvls between combat/trade which will put you at lvl 35. than start doing the lvl 50 terminal jobs (which can be started at ol35)... and do many many terminal jobs. Also, I recommend starting with a Jenqui for beams so that you aren't spending credits on ammo. make progens and terrans later imo.
