Take the Test at the beginning of the game...

Good call, most people might think they can skip the "tutorial" since they know how the game works and/or just want to start the game properly and the introduction, but indeed it's well worth it.
I think the 3rd item ( the boots for you ) are a random item though, but still very nice ofcourse!
Also you miss out on 2 battles which dont just give exp but are usefull for several other things, like even more chests and other ways to gain some points for your medals, although maybe not everyone might care for this.

Cheers for the heads up though!

I always do the tutorial for the bonus starting stuff, I just don't have slow/trap. I had them in a couple other games I started up, but I don't on the main one I'm playing right now. The only spells I ever get in the tutorial area is guardian angel and precision, and nature's call from a dig.

nature's call is a pretty awesome spell! Great way to 'plug' a whole as well as doing a bit of damage (a lot of damage with the right build). I keep having this idea to play a game using eggs, thorns, nature's call (drink a lot of coffee, you can 'cast' it a lot) and druids... and just spam the enemy with summons that your thorns can turn into MORE summons.

I played the tutorial (as I did in Legends), however I was hoping it would go into more detail, it was pretty basic stuff just like it was in Legends (in my opinion). On my new game I couldn't sit through the tutorial again so soon so I skipped it and forgo whatever I might have gotten. I don't regret it now as she's doing really well this game, seems she's had all the right luck this time through (so far anyway).
