>anything 'must do'?
Nothing particularly striking, at least in my opinion. Most of the stuff you see online in English is, well, pure NPC tourist stuff. When I saw the Shirvanshah palace had a 4x entry price for foreigners I just turned around and left. The most fun I had was just from roaming around, gawking at the state of this place and the general autism at play. They have a military museum of destroyed Armenian tanks that had (has?) wax sculptures of soldiers specifically meant to look ugly, I find that kinda hilarious. If that sounds fun to you then it's your type of place.
>/out/ stuff?
As mentioned the mountainous north is nice, same goes for southeast around Karabakh (but last I heard a lot of it still is an exclusion zone) and Göygöl (pic related, view of mount Kapaz from the road to lake Göygöl). There are a few national parks and free camping is totally legal. Most of the country is desert or desert-ish, though.
>Anything I should watch out for?
Niggers and gypsies who want to make you pay 2-4x the normal price for things. Anything violent is exceptionally unlikely to happen to you because the country is a bootleg police state.
>English or Russian?
Definitely Russian, the number of English speakers is hilariously low (not counting Indians in the Icherisheher), even Russian isn't spoken by everyone but you'll find someone who understands much quicker. Even better would be learning some phrases in Azeri, but it's probably not worth it for a bonus trip. Russian is useful in all 3 regardless.
