Let me kick this off with my contribution: consume all the fungi you encounter during your adventures. I mean literally every single mushroom that crosses your path. Think of it as complimentary nutrition that costs you nothing!

I know this sounds like horrible guidance, but that’s exactly the point of this discussion. We’ve all learned the hard way about various mistakes in Peak, so let’s compile a list of the worst recommendations we could possibly give to new players. Share your most disastrous tips that would definitely lead newcomers astray. What other terrible advice have you got that sounds helpful but would actually cause major problems for someone just starting out in the game?

Never check your map or learn the layout, just wander around aimlessly. Getting lost builds character and you’ll definitely find your way back to extraction eventually.

3

Always sprint everywhere, stamina management is overrated anyway

Drop your gear when you spot other players - it shows you’re friendly. They’ll totally appreciate it and won’t just grab your stuff and bolt. And don’t bother bringing food or water on runs since you can always find what you need out there.
