Jotisz:
1 Luck isn't so bad with the combination of fast shot its perfect. Shooting 5-6 times with a 14mn pistol is quite good and Fn fall is deadly without bonus ranged damage too, also in tb its quite cool shoot once and use the remaining points to take cover city ruins encounters are great for that though 2 bonus move is needed to perfect the tactic. Having lot of luck with fast shot is a waste since without aiming doing criticals is rare.
I don't think using small frame is good for new players they less likely will have base or shared tents to store their stuff so they would need more carry weight to transport their stuff from they home to a place they want to sell.

I listed toughness as optional. Awareness is needed if you level a doc. It's also good for new players as with awareness they learn a lot about critters in encounters and players in towns.

This is about new players being unfamiliar with the game. A 1 LK fast shot build with bonus move isn't a good build for them.
New players should get themselves used to real-time asap. It's easier to get out of encounters, encounters last shorter and sooner or later you will need to fight in real-time anyway.
Small frames is fine. It's something they will end up using a lot in builds, so it's better to get used to it at an early stage. They could use pack rat to compensate the low carry weight.

My tip for newbies: forget everything that guy who started the topic said,
and listen to HertogJan

If we are delivering tips to the air I might as well deliver mine

Disregard hertogjan and listen to the TC, he pretty much hit the nail
And my 2 cents, for newbs awareness is GOD, and both toughness and BRD aint that good unless youre minmaxing stats and already doing a combat ready character, Id rather go with a 8 INT and 10 END guy, and bursting twice with a fal or an AR is already enough for most PVE Encounters. and the high INT will let him experiment some skills, and gather his craft specialization ASAP
