Equipment Loop

New adventurer equipment loop:

Visit Erga's Newbie Shop
equip
Hunt a beginner area
Inspect useful loot and get all from corpse
Return to the Main Shop and sell ordinary loot, or carry a corpse burner with set autosell on to send ordinary equipment to Taylor as you hunt. Alternatively, set autorefine on converts refinery-eligible equipment directly into saved profession materials
Bank spare coins

Taylor deducts 10% for automatic selling after applying the same Charisma and reputation appraisal he would use at his counter. Noteworthy gear is left on the corpse rather than transmitted.

Autosell and autorefine cannot be active together. Autorefine does not require a burner, uses normal Refinery yields, and permanently processes eligible equipment before autoloot. Keep it off when you want to inspect drops first.

At level 2 and above, check the Donation Room. Return useful donated gear when you are done with it.
