It is your 1st location town.

Game world has 3 start towns: Arkijah, Seastone and Ruby Fort. We will make acquaintance with Arkijah.

 

You are now on star centre of this location. You always be reborn on star when you get killed. Now, when you just started to play, you have some bonuses with you being on the star you health and mana has faster regenerate. Star is a peace zone. You can not attack anyone on the star. Peace zones have such picture . You may see it on game client near map picture.

Besides the star, the world has more peace zones such as shops, schools, guilds, bank, inn and laboratory.

 

Game world has 2 types of shops.

Shops of simple things:

 

- Dump. Here you may to buy or to sell ingredients that you got after fights with mobs-animals like cheese, teeth, any viscus etc.

- Scribe Shop. It is special shop where you can buy scrolls to get brewed on elemental resists. And some more special scrolls to brew many more different potions. All brewing you must do in a special place - Laboratory. Laboratory has own picture on map.

 

2nd type of shops is platinum shops. They have the same pictures as simple shops, but with more brightness on shop picture. In the platinum shops you will be allowed to buy more powerfull gear and weapon, but for elite money - Platinum! Platinum can to be bought from official game dealers or traders for real money.

 

 

Besides all those shops you can see in town some guilds.

Guilds have 2 pictures:

 

- Magic schools. Here you will be allowed to learn special skills, such as heal, cure, any element and mind with magic damage.

 

- Warrior schools. Here you will be allowed to gain parameters such as might, dexterity and other special skills.

It is only places where u will need to go for to gain levels.

 

 

On the map you can see 2 more places where you may keep safe your things and money, because when you gain level 10 and if you get killed all your money and things will stay on your corpse and other human players will be allowed to loot it from your corpse. So, better do not take much money and things with you.

 

Money you need to keep in special location - bank. Noone will be allowed to use your bank account, only you!

For things you will be allow to use inn. Noone will be allowed to use your inn, only you!

Also on map you can see bar, but for you its only peace zone. Bar is clan inn and you canТt use it.

 

Town, besides peace zones, has Lawful zones rest of town. It is a place for you to fight with mobs. Lawful zone has picture.

 

 

 

 

Well, now your client opened, you have learned what all buttons for, its time to start to play. Now your character is level 0. For to gain level you need to get experience. Way to get experience is to kill mobs. Lets walk around town, but donТt forget that you are low level character yet and will be very hard to fight with high level mobs and sometimes just not real. Thats why you need to find someone who is just 1-2-3 levels higher than you. All levels are viewable on notice window when you bring mouse cursor on mob avatar. For example:

 

- Mouse (level 0). For the victory over mouse on level 0 you will get 1 experience point. Also after victory you will get 1 peace of cheese. Cheese can be sold on Dump. For 1 peace of cheese you will get 1 gold coin (you will need money for to gain levels or to buy gear, weapons and other things).

 

- Alley cat (level 1). For the victory over alley cat on level 0 you will get 4 experience points. After victory you will have a chance to get collar from mob. It will be automatically equipped on you. Congratulations, its your 1st gear that you have got from mob. Now you can get some more collars and then to sell them in Jewellery shop.

 

- Dog (level 3). For the victory over dog on level 0 you will get 16 experience points. Also you will have a chance to get a dog fang that can be sold in Dump with cheese.

 

Now when you started to fight with mob you can see that in chat window now not only messages from other human players and you can see fight log. In fight log you see how much losses you have done in rival, what special skills or effects were used in fight and how many gold, experience and what things you have got after fight if you win.

 

Be careful, some mobs are too high for you. And you have at start some potions in inventory that will help you to win in your 1st fights. Use those potions in fight if your health is getting too low.

 

While you killing mobs you can see numerals under map, one of the lines is your experience. It may have white, green, yellow and red colour.

 

- White numerals means that you do not have enough experience for to gain level.

 

- Green numerals means that you have enough experience for to gain 1 level.

- Yellow numerals means that you have enough experience for to gain 2 levels.

 

- Red numerals means that u have maximum experience and its enough for to gain 3 levels and if you will not gain level your experience will not count.

 

Make decision for yourself how to level up your character. 3 levels in a row or by 1 level, because if mob will kill you - you will lose half experience points.

 

Now, when you have enough gold coins and experience for to gain level you need to go in chosen school and to push in opened window.

 

Congratulations, you have just gained you 1st level!
