Very confused about progression
So I started a Hunter because well feels like a decent choice to get familiar with the game.
First I did the prologue a couple little like simulation missions and now I am looking to go get some meat for the meal system. But upon assigning my 2 skill points I was bombarded with a bunch of what seem like Over powered weapons and armor for each class and items that I have no idea what to do with. The items are like disks which as a PSOBB i thought would teach me techniques but have no use function. I feel very overwhelmed by all this and am unsure what I should be doing.
