this is for the new people these are some helpfull hints and things you can do.
things u can do:
1. do runs (mission or arcade) this is called grinding, doing things like jelly king or snarby runs when you start are a good way to earn cr and tokens
2. learn to manage your energy do not use revs unless team is all dead. reason is because a nother player can come over an get u up by giving half their hp to u but it cost u 30% of your heat.
3. if you are out of energy take a break stop playing. game is not going anywhere watch tv, go outside, eat launch, or do something else while the mist energy recharges it takes 13 mins per 1 mist energy.
4. selling unwanted things (weapon u do not use due to to weak like 1-2star stuff with no upgrades) either to AH (requires unbinding some times) or to a NPC vendor in bazaar (vatel, Basil, and so on), you can also do this with most material i have found that all mats you only need at least 20 on hand at any time, except shards no real point selling those cause they are always needed (i keep about 80 at all times myself)
5. brink sell trinkets when u get 5 tokens its an easy 250 cr, weapons and armor depending on star can give lots more (brute jelly=3500 cr, ancient plate stuff goes for 30k cr)
6. CE, buy it buy clicking the circle button it may be high but it is there for a reason. i suggest saving the cr up enough for what u want basically round the current price to the closes 100 above the price and times the number of what u need (example 200=2 purchases, 400=4, and so on).

things not to do:
1. begging, basically asking people for stuff like cr or ce(this gets u no where). nobody likes this cause it makes u look like you are too lazy or a scammer (anyone can put a proto armor on and say they are a new player).

if there is anything else anyone wants to add go ahead. i really only made this cause i want to help people get cr/ce so they can stop complaining about they do not have any.
