Junior Priorities

 Junior Priorities in brief:

 Daily, [Directives] give the best rewards now.  Try to do to your daily [Operations], and ITA and ITAP in Tacit Dunes with a team weekly and biweekly for prizes.  Solo, finish your [Bastion] quests. Earn seasonal mounts. Story quests are less important. Ignore Thea, Terra, Hostile Territories, Distortions, Nightmares, and Cognition quests until you unlock your Elder God or a leader invites you personally to one.

 Every day, have fun, be a friend, check and handle F9, 9, L, N, B,  Invasion Atlas, Y > RECENT,  K >ToK, >Cath, >ToD,  Shift K. Choose what incidents to run and gain prizes from: Panth events, Ops, Dirs (with Catch-up or good loot. Use God form on Groups. Stim grey dirs for better prizes). Look for and give /invites.  Ignore the "find a group" button.

The deets:

This briefing includes ordered lists of daily and long-term priorities for a Junior God, but it's going to start with "Last, but really should be first:  Cultivate friends from everywhere." 

Make friends by giving other players a commodity that the game cannot give them: Respect. Use simple manners like "please" and "thank you" (tyvm) a lot, say "afk" and "back" when others are working with you, "sorry" when your err, acknowledge requests from others, especially group hosts and team leaders, follow instructions and help if you possibly can. You get the idea.

After that, you can provide an even rarer commodity: Admiration. When another player does something you truly admire, tell them in public chat. It can be part of a thank you. "How did you do that cool move?"  "How can I get a copy of your nifty item".  Give the opposite, criticism, in private, if at all.  Nothing is more humiliating than a public chastisement, or causes more anger when it's embarrassing or unwarranted.

Last, originate communication often. "Welcome back", "I'd like your advice...", even "I'm glad because you...", are great things to tell anyone. Gives honest praise whenever you can. Add "answer all your communications, (even if it's been a while since it was sent) to your daily list, then start a few. (This works beautifully in UserWorld, too.)

Daily (if not more often) tend to your:
 Adepts (L), (manage them)
 Prizes (F9), (accept them)
 B-Bag (open boxes, use the best items, sell the rest), 
 Sales (N), (consider dailies and packs, but usually don't buy)
 I-Invasion Atlas (spend you [Eidoi]),
 Community Chat (Y>Recent) and Discord chat (review and be a friend), 
 Shift-K to [Hall of Deeds] (spend your [Divine Deeds]),
 Shift-K Tower and Cathedral (visit for daily rewards, spend nothing), and...
 
under Shift-K AELION, prioritize [Directives] for catch-up prizes:
 [Followers] immediately boost your Cathedral Might,
 [Scientific Development] coins click in Bag to boost your ToK Might,
 [Trophy Booster] stars  HOARD until a [Hall Trophies] sale, and

 [Divine Deeds] spent in your your new [Hall of Deeds] in the [Capital] give buffs and abilities.  Fill the first  three tabs (Knowledge for Support, Willpower for Tanks, War for Damage) about in the order presented to unlock Elder God status.
  To get the six Avatar Trophies you need to unlock the first three HoD tabs, take every "Trava" (Training Avatar) invitation you can. Players who solo a lot should work half-way thru the fourth tab [Halls of Travel] early, using up some credits.  

Other valuable Directive prizes are:
 [Victory Medals] to hoard until a [Hall of Trophies] sale,
 [Premium Days] to use on days when you game a lot,
 [Premium Boosters] to use right away for extra daily prizes,
 [Argents] to save for legendary weapons and other must-have items on sale,
 [Sparks of Transform] to save for new classes, and
 large [Credit drops] to hoard for now.  You'll need 2.6 million later. Do buy open spaces to enlarge your Bag as you need them. Don't spend credits in the Cathedral or KoE in the Tower while you are in catch-up

 After your 1) daily Directives and Operations ("Dirs&Ops"),  2) [Bastion] quests (range easy to hard) offer additional skills and resources. Open all you can: they overlap with each other and your directives so one mission can get you many completions. You can use use a [Stimulant] to bypass one bastion quest anytime.

  3) The two [Inghar Test Area] group adventures  in Tacit Dunes province (ITA and ITAP) need at least two strong players to complete even one round there.  They award [Argents] and other prizes to all participants every week, and special prizes every two weeks.

 Less important are 4) Seasonal (easy) and Story quests season 2 or 3 (vary easy to hard),  5) You can safely ignore quests in Thea, Terra, Hostile Territories, and Distortion quests (all very hard) for now although they give buffs and prizes. Guides and rising rank make them easier as you continue playing. 6) You cannot join most Nightmare quests (unlock with Trial Rank) or Cog quests (unlock with Elder God status) yet.

  7) When a Pantheon leader or trusted Elder arranges and invites you to a special mission or class or duty, try to accept it if at all possible. The personal prizes might not seem great, but the jumps in status, leader boards, team play, experience, training, and future invitations are surprisingly rewarding.

Now, let's get your Adepts and Faith maximized!
