I don’t feel like it’s much different than a T6, honestly. Yes, you should be able to run away from creatures. If you can put any points towards armor, I would. If not, maybe bring a speed brew? Bring your grapple. Two of the worlds have water and one has lava. I would advise you to bring a gem hammer if you can. You’ll need to go down to alt 30-40 to get Rift. The gleam is on the surface or just under the water…pretty easy.
Also would like to add that unless I am helping someone or going on a hunt, I always solo. I only have one full skill page, working on my 2nd now.
As you can see in my video at the end of this thread, creatures didn’t really mess with me: Exo planet megathread
