A tip to ALL new players. If someone asks you to talk to Tolkano and to get 10 Zaishen Keys using your Tournament Points all new players get, DON'T sell the keys for less than 5000-5500 gold/each.

Edit: Clarified price

Thats like totally unrelated, but yes new players should never give anything out if they dont know the real value of an item.

Actually, its totally related. Your offer is great, but just in case its less then sincere, better to protect any new players against a potential way they might get taken advantage of . Again its great that you want to help, thanks for making the game a slightly better place by giving back and best of luck to you and any you help.

They sure do, all accounts get them, though only once per account.

It's just a friendly warning.. as you're on a new account looking specifically for new players Don't take it personally.

Edit: Ok not a new account, just saw "Pre Searing", seems you just haven't posted much for the last 2 years.

Minor thing... but it might save some grief if a new player does want to sell his/her keys... it's 5,000 to 5,500 gold. I so very much WISH keys sold for 50 plat!

You can use tournament points for other things, like unlocking new pvp weapon/armor skins. It's sad how everyone just exchanges them for zed-keys.

I already tutor a few rookies, so feel free to add me up, too - Sarv Samarth.
I can also help with the market a bit, both getting into it and giving apx quick price checks (in the worst case, judging between 'merch food' and 'ask for pc on guru').

You can always ask Mithran S Arkanere for a hand in-game too, if you ever see me. My playing hours are rather random and erratic. So finding my in-game is a matter of luck without scheduling or having my Steam account.

Just a warning, though. Don't expect anyone to do things for you. Give someone a fish, they'll eat one day. Give someone a fishing pole, they'll eat until it breaks. Teach them how to make fishing poles, and they'll fend for themselves.

So I tend to give hints like: "Is there any place you haven't searched?" or "What's this pig doing here?" instead telling things directly.
