I realized he was new, but not 2nd char ever new. Which if so, great.
I'm glad this dude is playing and making chars and sure, we'll give a pass to non-battle knowledge. But it doesn't give him a pass for ruining someone else's char, begging for help/gear all the time (have you ever looted the dude of 1 or 2 pieces he needs? It's Kanye in training wheels), only abiding by parity when/if it's convenient.
And even though this is technically battle knowledge. Bro stop jerking off fort/empire(he was, not so much anymore, but I think that's more an Empire thing than a him thing)/orcs to defend/raid/help you.
