My Time at Portia: Tips for a good start

“My Time at Portia” is among the best life simulations on Steam. Collect resources, fight your way through dungeons and create anything you want. With the numerous tasks and exploits Portia has to offer, you’ll quickly lose yourself. Follow our tips to get structure:

• House Repair: After moving into your father’s old house, you should furnish it first. This will regenerate your maximum stamina faster and your day will go longer. So you can do more things per day. You will need a total of 33 wood to repair all the holes. So collect sticks in the meadow in front of Portia. You can also go chopping with a wood axe.

• Build skills: You should mainly upgrade the axe and pickaxe skills. These are the most useful as they will give you a boost in mining resources.

• Static Bonuses: You get these by strategically furnishing your house. For example, a leather sofa gives you more defense and a wardrobe increases your health. Use the work table to ensure your values. Regional stores occasionally offers you crafting recipes for furniture pieces. Grab these offers.

• Value Limit: If you want to benefit from the stowage points of your deco at home, keep in mind the limit. There is a home panel at the front door. There you can see how many bonuses you currently receive. It also shows you by how much the values can be further improved. As soon as a bar is full, you cannot increase the value further.

My Time at Portia: Useful mechanics for resources

The following tips will make it easier for you to collect resources and bring you the highest profit economically. Take help to get materials faster and sell your items at the right time.

• Economy: When you go to the merchant to sell the treasures from your exploration tours, you should only give them away at a good market price. To the right of the merchant you will see the items sold. There is also a percentage shown there. You should not sell if this value is lower than 100%. Always stay above it and if you have patience, wait for a percentage in the 110 range.

• Tree Farm: Complete the quest of Aadit and Dawa to bring the tree farm to a golden age. You can then enter into an agreement with the couple. This will give you daily resource deposited at your doorstep for a certain fee. Among them is sap, wood, hardwood, ironwood and more.

• Provisions: You can get these every day at Commerce Guild. Usually the commissions are limited to 10 days. If the timer expires, they can apply the relationship points at the NPC. This will cause a loss of your local reputation.

• Civil Corps: these can task you to collect resource. The Civil Corps will search sewage ruins as well as abandoned ruins for you. Select the commission board in the headquarters to choose the area to explore. Here, the field commissions are responsible for materials. Ruin Diving commissions will give you engines and valves, for example. The resources will be sent to your mailbox.
