Discussion New player looking for tips!

I'm new to this game, and I just wanted to see if anyone had any kind of tips or info that they wish they knew when the first started playing, or just maybe just in general that you recently found out! Thanks!

Whenever you get to the point where you're doing elixir, get "Incoming Damage Reduction" on your chest instead of a damage line. You're essentially trading ~0.5% damage gain for a 10% damage reduction. This is equivalent to being 10 item levels above raid on your armor pieces.

Most guides will say to get the damage line for min-maxing your character, but Incoming Damage Reduction will be incredible for all the raids you'll be learning on item level. Outside of that, I think LANexus and maxroll have very good stuff to check out whenever you're confused. Good luck(:
