1. Scavenge & Explore

Gather supplies, discover new locations, and make decisions that shape your path.

  • Resources: Food, weapons, tools, crafting materials.

  • Points of Interest:

    • Abandoned camps for supplies

    • Mines for crafting materials

    • Towns and saloons for missions and duels

2. Build & Fortify

Turn gathered resources into strongholds that protect you and your loot.

  • Upgrade Bases: Unlock better crafting, improved defenses, and safe zones.

3. Take Action

Once secure, head out for missions, PvP duels, or high-stakes events.

  • Mission Types:

    • Bounty Hunts: Track NPC or player targets for a payout.
