Guide hub questions
Which guide should I read first?
Read the Beginner Guide first, then Combat System, then use Characters and Builds when you are ready to decide who to invest in.
Why separate combat, status, and signal pages?
Those pages explain the mechanics that make a character useful. Rankings are easier to trust when the site explains the team logic underneath them.
What should I read after the beginner guide?
Move into combat basics, resource planning, build logic, team roles, and platform information based on the problem you are trying to solve.
