I mean, I'd like to give some advice, but idk what to say

me + my co-op buddy just installed a mod to do blackpits that bumps enemies up to +1 level over your level cuz we were 15 and didn't want the pits to be too ez, tho we already did most of bloodmoon, so maybe that was a level right there

all I can say is keep a close eye on your log and talk to more ppl, maybe
explore every corner of the map -- there's stuff to do all over
