How to play (READ THIS IF YOUR NEW)
Some basics:

It is important to help your team to gather the components required to build a fire. Also it is important to set up your teams base! You can have any number of bases you choose but it is good to start with one solid one. Remember! There's more then the wild to worry about! The enemy team can come for you at any moment! So prepare accordingly!

The resources you find in world can be crafted into a number of helpful things that will propel your team into victory. You can take a look at the master crafting menu by pressing C or by clicking on the tab on the left side of the screen.

Combat can be carried out in a wide variety of ways. Outsmarting your oppenent through use of traps or towers, or using items or spells that can slow, stun, or drain your oppenents energy.

Tips:

Don't forget you can store items in almost any building. Its a great way to hide your stuff from pesky invaders.

Being rushed can suck. Watching rushers plow into traps is a lot more enjoyable.

So I want dedicate this post/tutorial for every new and bit advanced player and I'll start with roles with detailed short describtion (in case you are waiting for lobby right now):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beast master:(First skill- pet controling, Second skill - tame a pet, aura - slowing enemy beasts movement and attack speed)
4-slotted. Can partially replace hunter. Main goals are to get levels, gear and kill beasts/enemies. There is a chance if you kill bear/elk/wolf for spawning little cub, which is tameable. Optional pick choice.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gatherer:(First skill-finding materials around, Second skill-more precision finding)
6-slotted. This one is hardest and most needed role in team. Can build With doctor hut. His main goal is gather resorces and build little base where everybody can make weapons and gear. Usually makes gear for hunter. From start its better to not take EXP from other players and just gather resorces. You ll get level later when you build ensnare towers and kill few birds in your base.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hunter: (First skill - Net(rooting enemy or beasts) second skill- puts bounty hunter track on enemy or beast reducing its armor)
3-slotted. Most newbie friendly character. His main goal is to hunt, get food and levels necessary for early invades and kills. Second most needed character for early prosperity of tribe. It is pain to get to middle stage of game without him. Equip made by other players.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Priest: (Too much spells for me to cover but mainly: Aura - providing heat and attack speed, healing, 20s bkb on 15s CD, cure (good against disease), buffs)
4-slotted. One of the harder characters, best when going in party with hunter while buffing him and supporting him. He is like hunters purse. Optional pick choice.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mage:(Too much spells for me to cover but mainly: Damage, damage, exhausting enemy, buff, debuff, short-lasting magefirecamp, deleting enemy food source)
4-slotted. Character for experienced players. Can properly farm after level 2 until than he goes with hunter/ beastmaster. His job is bursting enemy trolls and big beasts (panther/bear/wolf) down. Optional pick choice.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scout:(First skill-finding beasts and enemy trolls, Second skill-reveal huge area around him)
5-slotted.Two skills so he is friendly for newbies. His job is found animals for hunter, put fires on river rocks, take things from thief bushes, help gatherer with gathering herbs and building camp. Optional pick choice.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thief:(First skill-blink, Second skill-invisibility)
5-slotted. Two skills again so he is kind of easier for new players to play. His job is warding river banks, finding enemy bases and stealing their stuff. He can carry games when he is in proper hands. He can gather well and so he usually make his own equip (solo carry if you wish). Super agile and hard to catch. Optional choice.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Strategy:
I personally met with several and I tell you about the most effective ones.
1. Early rush - You take hunter, mage, beast master/thief and scout. You spend whole noob time gathering food and when timer show you 0:00 you just go with tons of food and kill each enemy team before they even start making staff. Selling all hides to traders and buying scrolls, spears and equip.
2. Mixing pot rush - 3 clay 1 stick 2 special herbs 3 river roots and disiese potion is up. You just throw it against enemy faces and before they find cure you can kill them before they know (good against early rush strat)
3. Turtle up - You make yourself unpenetrable base with teleport, magic seeds, traps and ohmnitowers full of scrolls. You gather everything you can and make most badass equip, elixirs and scrolls. You win in late game bcs enemy was fighting early and didn't make so much of equip, lvls and elixirs as you did. Also if they attack you, usually one of them die bcs of great defense.
4. Rush battle armor and battle axe - You need hunter for this one, he is lvling whole time and your team rushing everything to make him gear. Midgame hunter with thouse two items, stack of food and priest is almost unbeatable. Subclass warrior.



Build order:
_______High priority________
Campfire: Making food and providing heat.
Stash: Your stockpile for everything but thistles.
Armory: You can make ensnare towers. Good number is 3 don't put them on one spot make a big triangle around campfire it's better for catching animals so towers don't overlap their ensnare skill. If possible and lucky enought you can buy 2 ensnare towers for 2 hides in shops. Also can make flint axe for cutting down some trees.
Mixing pot: Now you can make magesmasher mighty weapon against priests and mages, you can make some cure potions too in case enemy have disease potions
Workshop: You can make battle armor and battle axe. Better nets, blowgun(you can fill it with bones, thistle or poisonos thistle left click ammo no blow gun) or late game boots.
Tannery: Basic boots can be upgreated to bone boots its worthed and you can upgreat them in armory
Witch Doctor hut:(Maybe high priority but I had few games when i didn't find any mana krystals and won game without it anyway) Your place for making scrolls and spirit ward which can revive your fallen trolls (have to be clicked manually) also you can make Super-poisonos spear for late game battles.
_______Low Priority________


Tips:
And for end of this tutorial some facts and tips you need to know before you start playing this mode:


If you stand on highground you can place structures on cliffs along river banks (for scouting traders and enemy movements)
When noob time is over get yourself a stack of coocked meat. You'll need it trust me. In noob time dont eat if you die nothing bad happens and you ll be revived automatically.
When you are low level and see lizard just kill it. He has anoying debuff which slows you but you can catch up in levels if you find one. Not hard to kill 5 - 10 hits.
PANIC! I mean press that N button. Its just energy you consuming.
If its a start of game and you dont have a mixing pot... don't make mud hut please. Mixing pot is more important.
Place your building close together for easier crafting.
Hide your spirit stone on cliffs or on unpredictable places.
You can build on highest cliffs too. But you have to cut down thouse trees (on winter part of map in middle).


So if I come up with something new I ll update this comment and when you guys come up with something i forgot or misspelled let me know and we'll make this begginners tutorial better. I ll see you on battlefield :P .
