Welcome back, i am not sure if you had already finished the tutorial before leaving or if it's still fresh for you but eather way here is a few guides that can help fill the holes in the tutorial :

The battler's guide will give you alot of information on how to build a team that fit your neads and witch equipements to use on each elements for better results.

The guid to make gold, especialy at the start players tend to struggle with getting gold using it with the guide to mission pets should help getting yourself started.

On the breeding side of thing, this guide explain the basic of it. This is ment to be more project oriented but the explanations are about the same when breeding for traits in any situations. If you have a set of trait you want but who is rarely seen in sale/expencive to buy directly,this can help you figuring out how to breed an offspring with those traits.

hopefully those will cover the basic that the tutorial forgot, if you have any question feel free to ask or to use the QandA, you should get an answer relatively quickly. ^-^
