ATTENTION: LEVEL UPS / SPENDING SKILL POINTS REFILLS THE PLAYER'S HEALTH AND ENERGYBAR. THEREFORE DELAY SPENDING ANY SKILLPOINTS UNLESS THE ENERGYBAR IS NEARLY EMPTY. OTHERWISE UP TO 250 ENERGY ARE WASTED EVERY TIME WHICH COULD BE USED FOR RUNNING TO NODES / PLAYING THE GAME.
Daily rare nodes like Crashsite and Humanitarian Aid tend to spawn when your energy is below 20 and it's mostly impossible to be able to reach it in time by just walking -> Level Up energy refill or energy recovery items required. While the downsite is being weaker by having a lower skill level than actual Player level but those energy refills are far too valuable to waste.
Level up Skill Priority, which one should I pick?
High priority:
+Dmg skills for Pistol / Shotgun (midgame)
+Dmg skills for Assault Rifle (lategame)
+drop chance% Treasure Hunter
+crit chance% Death Blow
-energy cost when running Short cut (lower cost = able to spend more for running)
-walking time% Second Wind (stacks with Short cut = lower energy cost when running)
Medium priority:
+Dmg skills for blunt / cutting weapons (earlygame)
+Heal from Food / Drugs Metabolism / Medic (you should avoid taking dmg earlygame, more useful lategame)
+dodge chance% Dodging (you should avoid taking dmg earlygame, more useful lategame)
-energy recovery time Cardio (depends on how long you play and how active you are in this game)
Low priority:
+maxHP / +maxEnergy (badly balanced increases because it adds absolute numbers instead of %)
Arena skills Duelist / Maneuver (minor part in overall gameplay)
+combat exp% Education (you should save level ups for HP- and Energyrefills, useless before lategame)
