Why is GOTR so late in the sailer guide? Is it a noob trap early game?

I see GOTR used as multiskilling when you're at lvl 75 RC. People always love the early RC lvls from GOTR and say the early runes are great for ironmen, but is it GOTR so late because it's better rewards at higher lvls?

I'm a newbie so just curious and kinda want to try earlier! At the end of Ch 1

need alter unlocks

Buying runes early is very good
The only thing you want is outfit and needle from gotr so you wanna do it later when it's quicker then do the better rc method

Magic imbue from lunar spellbook and npc contact also help with GOTR which are unlocked later

You also really want 56 agility to access the large guardian remains

the people recommending gotr at low level simply have very poor standards, sorry to be blunt

the only reason they think it's good is because everything else they know is so bad

having gp and buying runes outclasses low level gotr by a lot
