So where do you all usually find merchants at?

The ones I find are the one in Joppa, the Glowpad merchant, and the one in the Grit Gates. I usually don't get any farther than that...

The one in Joppa is in the bottom right house.
The Glowpad is generated somewhere in the swamps.
The Grit Gate one is the first one you'll see in there.

How do you tell the merchant apart from the other glowpads?

He's cyan, he's got a LOT of hitpoints, he's very likely going to be generated with stuff that can kill you quickly if you aggro him, he apparently doesn't need water to survive, and unlike the others, he can move.

One quick question; what does the bio-bracelet do? Does it actually memorize the layout as I walk around or is it just a useless decorative piece?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

The bio-bracelet gives you an exact hitpoint layout of everything in the game world, rather than an aproximation (Perfect, Fine, Injured, Wounded, Badly Wounded...).

I've been wondering for a while what buying points in the wilderness lore: ruins/plains/desert/etc do. Aside from Mind's Compass which is self explanatory, what do getting skills in wilderness lore do?

Finally managed to find the critters for the first quest, then I get sniped by a seed spitting vine <_<

You are much less likely to get lost in those areas. I personally think that 100 points for that is too much. I'd better spend those 100 on axe+butchery.

Ah yes, the seed spitting vines. Known for eating adventurer flesh and bone. Known for making the famous swiss adventurer. And known for being extremely annoying.

Yeah, 100 points is too much for a infrequent 10 minutes of being lost.

How do you get to the rust wells? It seems like an easy area, but I can't find anything without a world map feature...

Also there're a few merchants in the plant village (south from a big body of water to the east from rust wells).

Rust wells are red circles to the east of Joppa.

Has there been a wiki created for this yet?

Be careful, despite it being a semi-easy area, you can still get something ridiculous from time to time that can kill you easily and quickly.

Also, stay away from red qudzu and attack from a distance, they don't call that area the rust wells for nothing.

I don't think so.

Don't forget rustaceans. They're all assholes that somehow can survive a HE missile to the face.

I started a new character, an esper this time to see how it survives compared to my four armed regenerating freak that's powered by the sun. I haven't gotten very far so far but I picked up Tinker I and was offered a choice of three schematics:

spectacles (useless fluff item)
high explosive mk3 grenade (very nice, very inexpensive to make as well)
and
corrupt banana.

Now. The grenade is definitely the first choice here. But c'mon. I have to take that corrupt banana just to see what the hell it does. I can't not take it.

Now I need to get some parts.

Edit: Looks like it's functionally just an acid gas grenade. Not sure how the damage compares.
