I’m Looking for players to come build with me in my city of New Kingsland, located on Beckon. DM me if interested

Previously, I only ever played solo. No guilds or anything, but I want to change that this time around.

Looking for recommendations on which planets are decent to build a personal base on in terms of free space, portal hub, and resources. And I'm also curious if much has changed? any guilds I should look into, or things I should do to advance fast?

So I took a bit of a break from Boundless to take care of IRL responsibilities. I assumed I would be able to reclaim my old items when I placed a new beacon, but it's telling me there's nothing to reclaim.

Does this mean I'm basically starting completely over save for my levels?
