HOW TO BECOME PRO

Time to make a new guide to sperging~ IN DETAIL
== So you've rolled a character ==Get your main weapon skill to 5 or 6. Perhaps grind to 3 or 4 at most, but dont waste time grinding it past that unless your ips are flowing like the river ganges.
While you are doing this, you want to start on the easy jobs:{| class="wikitable sortable"|-! width="20%" | Job! width="10%" | # Times! width="35%" | Description! width="35%" | Reward|-| Corpse Grinder| 5| Process a corpse at the RDCD| 50 XP|-| Gamble| 20| Win 5 games at the casino| 50 XP|-| Medic| 15| Heal 5 patients at Slagtown General| 150 XP|-| Chud hunter| 10| The chud extermination contract from Sgt.

If you can persuade someone to kill ghosts for you, you can start on ghostbuster, also you can ask people to fish for you (do not go overboard on asking for favors!!!) if you get your hands on a carbon pole and bait jar, you can fish for yourself, and many people will be grateful if you offer fish so anyone can do the job. another job that you can do with many favors is chef~ grabbing berries from mountain pass and apples from crater rim is pretty easy and a berry or apple+raw meat+naan are all thats needed for thornberry meat pies
for cash, deliveryboy and crackheads will be all you need. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT FARMING MOBS FOR XP. the other thing to make sure is that you always have gym ip to spend. the single biggest speed bump to getting tuff is gym ip. gym as fast as you can.
Ok, so you have 6 raw in your weapon, probably a bunch of unspent xp. your first priority is to buy enough climb to easily get around, then your weapon skill to about 10 raw or so. unless you are playing a gimmick. so keep doing the jobs, get yourself some scrub weapons, and start going out and killing shit for kill journals (not for effective xp). high level players will generally not mind helping you out with this, but again, dont go overboard. for kill journals, look at the wiki list, look for the weaker ones or the ones you have seen. at this point you can also start doing chud and prisoner hunter contracts from Hatred above city hall. these pay out ok and are a good source of job xp. also, you can start on defender and dexter job. for defender, try to piggyback off FCPD kills. you can also do moonshiner jobs. if you can afford a scamming outfit and have good persuade, you can start scammer job. it is possible to steal tvs for burglar, but i find it frustrating to do so. you can also start on EEE delivery (now located in botany bay), just make sure you take packages that arent for luskentyre (until you get climb skill) and usagi (in fact almost never take usagi packages). another easy job you can do is pusherman once you get some scav, scavenge a rock of crank in the crack mansion, break it into 10, and then sell it to crackheads.
once you buy up some climb you can go a lot farther afield, opening up many more journals and kill journals. after that, you will want to buy some scav, maybe up until it starts costing a significant amount for a new raw. money making opportunties that arise around now: killing hepcats and selling their shit (the selling is the profitable part, lucy, ricky, butch, and jack drop weapons that sell for 1k apiece roughly, plus nanoweave suits), killin truckasaurus and selling the ai module to jlar for 1600 a pop (gotta butcher it~ use a scalpel. save the liquid reservoirs as they are useful for oil pumper).
If you are a nerd and have high brains, you will want to buy a couple raws of repair and medic. everyone loves having a good nerd in their corp. Also if you have high brains and/or cool, you will want to buy some pilot skill so you can fly a plane around (15 total is ok for mosquitos and prions, 18 total for a cessna tiltrotor)
once you hit 10 weaponskill, and decent climb/scav you should buy to 6 raw in dodge, and then pump that weaponskill straight to 15. the 6 raw in dodge will make running away a lot easier.
jobs that open up with scav and repair: dam repairman in weezer, utility worker, oil pumper, pusherman, many others.
once you get sufficient climb, you can also do a TON of quests. as you gain more weapon skill and scav, you'll be able to do more. many of these quests, escpeically the very early ones can be done straight out of chargen. here is my quest order:

eventually, you'll want to get some skills in track, and maybe pilot if you are a brains or cool based character, with these skills you can do chop shopper, utility worker, oil pumper, racist hunter (try to team up with other people on that one), rescue ranger (drop wasteland contracts), utility worker, leechbane in luskentyre, organ repo in maas (if your medic isnt good enough, ask around!), dam repairman, baby farmer (the hard part for this one is getting babies). take the time to get all the travel journals you can. money: spam refinery and farm truckasaurus+hepcats. also khan in botany drops a desert hawk, sells for 2750. bryce in slagtown drops a cyberdeck worth 3200, but you gotta smash the door now. if you can pilot, you'll want to look into buying a mosquito to help you get to lusk and botany and such without too much hassle.
to finish the order, here is my kill list at 100k quest xp. most of these are fairly easy, but i did get help with some of them. for others that are tuff i mightve pulled out some high end weaponry. however i did most of these with knuckle busters.

obviously i had help with lumberjack and raider killer. also i got people to do organ kits for me, but i had to fish for them or do things for them. if you do nothing but ask for help you will be ignored usually!!
ok so if you do all these quests you should have at least 80k quest xp and hopefully maxed weapon raws; all while using newbie gear so you are relatively grief immune. along the way, at some point you will find that you can kill monsters super easily that give you a ton of effective xp. when this happens, you could spend a while farming them if you want. lampreys are a good example of this, they pay well, spawn on demand with the contract in a small area, you can get npc help sometimes, and they give a lot of xp for their difficulty. past lampreys, its a matter of finding mobs that are easy for you. at this point you'll probably need to start breaking out the good gear. be careful with it! you are still very weak in comparison to the gankers with 200k xp. once you've gotten max weapon raws, start focusing on your dodge (unless you are a nerd character or something).
MUTATION ORDER
ok so while you are doing this you are getting all these mutation slots! and you want to know what to take! well here is a rough guide.
First mute: brute strength OR swollen brains2.Twitchy nerves3.ultraclot/bleeder4.hyperimmune5.bloodhound
After this the order is debatable, but almost everyone will be good with taking those 5 mutations for their first 5.
