Tribes of Midgard is a co-op survival game blended with action. Players must head into the wilderness to hunt and gather to keep their tribe alive. They'll also fight vicious enemies, like Giants, while collecting treasure. As with any survival game, the further players travel from their Sanctuary, the greater the challenge becomes, with better rewards and more experience available. Choosing the best weapons, tools, runes, and items will ensure the tribe endures as long as possible.
In Tribes of Midgard, players can choose to start with nothing or select one of the many valuable Starter Kits to boost their chances of reaching more advanced levels. Once obtained, these kits are available throughout the entire game, offering assistance when needed. If players want to acquire more than one, they'll have to follow the steps to unlock them.
5 Villager Starter Kit
The Villager Starter Kit comes with a complete set of villager armor and weaponry. It is most useful for those who wish to start farming camps immediately. However, players who choose this kit will want to avoid the larger camps without having an active co-op. The chances of surviving alone, even with the armor, are slim to none.
This is one of the easiest Starter Kits to unlock. All players must do is craft a common item. This Starter Kit offers a well-rounded balance to the start of the game, providing some level of protection from enemies. It is also an excellent choice for those looking to do a speed run through Saga Mode. Because it is available at the start of the game, it is easily accessible and allows for nearly immediate use. The only downside to this is the time it takes to unequip the armor, should players come across a Nothing to Hide Rune.
4 Harvester Starter Kit
The Harvester Starter Kit will boost a player's ability to harvest. They will receive a Flint Lumberaxe, Flint Pickaxe, and Lucky Loot Rune. This Starter Kit is ideal for players who want to focus on gathering early in the game. Players can quickly upgrade to stone tools to maximize their effects, eventually making weapons to clear camps to obtain better weapons.
Players can unlock this Starter Kit by reaching level two in Seasons Rewards. The most lucrative item in this Starter Kit is the Lucky Loot Rune. It increases the chance for loot drops from enemies by 20%, which can also increase the opportunity for finding more runes throughout the game. This Starter Kit works well for a speed run through the Saga Mode. Players can use it to build around the Nothing to Hide Rune if they should find one, making it effective because there is no time wasted unequipping armor when using the rune.
3 Archer Starter Kit
The Archer Starter Kit is an excellent option for players who prefer the Hunter and Ranger classes. It comes with a bow and 100 arrows.Both classes make excellent use of a bow, making this Starter Kit a perfect quick start for either option. Players will also get the Arm of Ullr Rune.
To unlock the Archer Starter Kit, players must craft an epic item. They will need to be at a minimum of level 4 to do this, and planning will be essential as epic items require rare items to complete crafting. The Arm of Ullr Rune will increase the effectiveness of arrows in combat by raising the damage dealt by special arrows by 20%. This Starter Kit is a great option to help clear camps and farm souls.
2 Feral Starter Kit
Players will get a considerable boost for being a melee fighter with no armor with the Feral Starter Kit. It comes with a Feral Hammer and the Nothing to Hide Rune. The rune allows for the faster killing of enemies, meaning players will take less damage from battles. This Starter Kit is unlocked by reachinglevel 22 of the Season Rewards.
The alternate use of the hammer will allow players to farm trees and pickaxe nodes. The Nothing to Hide Rune's boost is a 150 damage increase when wearing no armor, making it a deciding factor in many situations. Players will quickly clear camps with the Feral Starter Kit equipped. This Starter Kit is the most effective option for those wishing to partake in a speedrun, as it already has a Nothing to Hide Rune. Having the rune from the start will make heading out much quicker, with no equipment getting in the way.
1 Harder They Fall Starter Kit
Recently released in the "Season 3: Inferno Saga," the Harder They Fall Starter Kit offers players the Ire of Thor Rune and the Ire of Odinn Rune. It is an excellent choice for those players who want to go straight to the heart of things and battle with the most formidable enemies.
