Knowing how to equip your character for combat, butcher and bury a corpse (including your own, burying it at least), use a toolbelt and backpack, these are the little things that can frustrate you until you see how to do them. This article is to help you keep from getting so frustrated by these little things.
To heal a wound, you can:
1) Bind * Bandage it by using [[cotton]] on it, if you have any. [[Rags]] work as well. These This will sometimes usually lower the damage when they are applied, and will continue to help reduce the damage in small increments until the wound is healed. It does not work as well on bruises or burns.
2) * Use a [[healing cover]] on it. Healing covers won't give you a nice initial reduction in damage like cotton and rags will, but they will reduce the damage in larger increments. There are several levels of potency. Be sure to read up on them before making and using them.
3) * Use [[farmer's salve]] on it. Farmer's salve only works on bruises, poison, and internal wounds.
4) * Get a [[Priest|priest ]] to [[:Category:Healing spells|heal ]] you.

2) Deeded lands are great places to drag aggro trains to. Especially if no players are there. The Spirit Templars are great at disposing of them. But be aware that some deeds don't have guards or guards that are told not to attack agressive animals at all.
A note about getting help from [[tower guard|guards]] and [[Creature: spirit templar|spirit templars]]
When a mob is engaged by NPCs, you can run around it and attack it from behind. Even if it appears to turn toward you, it may still be attacking an NPC; keep an eye on your combat log. In this case, you should switch your attack stance from normal (sword) to aggressive (axe). This way, you will earn fighting skill for aggressive without much risk.
4) Water is a good place to lose most aggro. Some swim though (like bears and crocodiles) and water doesn't work as well on them.
5) Always carry water with you. Yeah, I know, you are a noob and you don't have a [[jar]] or [[water skin]]. Do your best to stay hydrated. This will allow your stamina to regenerate quickly. If possible, get [[juice]] or [[wine]]. They are a must for PVP, and can be very useful in PVE.
6) Travel light. If you forage, eat the berries and nuts as you go. [[pelt|Pelts]] aren't worth much, leave them alone - they'll add weight. Don't pick up [[meat]], either, unless you have a bowl or two to cook it in. [[fur|Furs]] aren't worth much, either, unless you are building a bed. [[hide|Hides]] may be useful, if you have a place to keep them, but they are heavy. Leave them alone unless you are ready to make [[leather]]. Make [[healing covers]] when you can, too - hopefully you will be able to run from aggro fast enough to use them. Cotton is better for healing, but you won't get much until your foraging skill goes above 10. You have to decide whether to pick the seeds or keep it to use.
