I recently began playing Era again, and I find many aspects to be more enjoyable than Classic. I'm still trying to figure a lot of things out, but it's really fun at the same time.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. I'm still trying to find my niche on iEra. I'm trying to invest in a better gun, and probably improve my wardrobe as well. My only form of income is shell digging. Here's my current arsenal.

- AK47
- Basic Sword

What should I be saving up for? After consulting Talon's most helpful gun guide, I was contemplating buying an ACR. If somebody could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I'm on a slightly low budget, but I'm slowly working my way up there.  

An ACR would be a good start, you can also buy a melee off of someone (crab daggers are decent) or buy one off a holiday shop.
After you get the hang of it you should try to save up to a better tier weapon 40-70k-ish.  

machete could be good lol  

Mp40 isn't a bad starter weapon. Also if you're looking for a good melee, try using gold knuckle dusters. 7 damage and very fast.

Approximately how much are crab daggers? Also, which shop stocks the ACR? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the advice. Excuse my question, bu how much are knuckle dusters? I'm a bit hesitant to buy anything that's over 20k.  

I suggest an m16 (16000 I think) and the knuckle dusters (7000 I think).
And if you can, win 20 events and get a hunter knife or kiwi blade.  

Na get a glock for £12,000  

Nah don't get the ACR. Get a weopon which will help you in both Spar, Steaking and Basing. Buying the ACR, will get you tempted on buying a better weopon in the near future. I would advise you to buy either an M16 or Glock. Both are very easy to use, and can help you in both spar and base. As for a melee, PM me in game and ill give you one of my Crab Daggers, and you can give it back once you get another good melee lol. Ill give you some shovels as well.  

The SMGPK is the ****.  

good starter, good starters hmmmmm, if you do a lot of basing M1 carbine as it can shoot right through doors, ACR is also a good starter for basing as it has dual shots. Now if you REALLY want to step it up price wise get the M4, best all around gun in game.  

Thanks for the suggestions, everybody. I've been busy digging my ass off, and I think I'm making decent progress in terms of both knowledge and profit.

I'm tempted to trade some of my shells for a Golden Morgan sword. Should I?  

Ill trade my golden morgan...for how much?

The Golden Morgan sword is a decent sword. It's definitely not the fastest melee, but it does 9 damage, has a special "spinning attack" along with its normal attack, and you can wear it on your back.  

I got it for 430 shells, and boy, does it feel good to swing that thing around!

I'm now planning to invest in a Glock, and possibly a car. I would like to start pk'ing as soon as possible!  

Wow , u guys are hard workers... I have 850 hours and uses a maraca and ak47 for pk and base and spar
