Getting Started in Hunt Skeletons Together

## Before You Start
Decide whether you're playing co-op, PvP, or solo before jumping in -- all three are confirmed as fully supported, and your strategy will genuinely differ depending on which you choose.
Since XP and cosmetic unlocks are confirmed to come from kills, don't play purely defensively if progression matters to you -- getting into the fight is confirmed as the path to unlocking new gear.
## Using the Grappling Hook Tactically
Since the grappling hook is confirmed to let you swing above the advancing dead, use it deliberately to reposition during overwhelming hordes rather than only as a traversal gimmick.
## Trusting the Netcode at High Ping
Since server-authoritative architecture with lag compensation is confirmed to keep hits landing consistently, don't second-guess your aim during laggy sessions -- the system is designed specifically to keep headshots registering fairly.
## Common Mistakes
* Playing purely defensively -- since progression is confirmed to come from kills, an overly cautious approach slows your own cosmetic unlocks.
* Ignoring the grappling hook -- it's confirmed as a genuine tactical tool for repositioning above hordes, not just a visual flourish.
