How to Start
From a fresh account to your first vocation. About half an hour of play.
1. Account and character
- Create an account. Your account name is a number, not a word — at least six digits. That number is what you type into the client, so pick one you will remember.
- Write down the recovery key. It is shown once, on the page right after you register, and never again. There is no email recovery on this server: if you forget your password and do not have that key, the account is gone. You can always issue a new key from My Account while you can still log in.
- Create your character. There is nothing to choose — everybody starts the same way, level 1 with no vocation, in Rookgaard. You pick your profession later, in game.
- Download the client. It patches itself on launch, so you only ever download it once. The minimap already has the whole world drawn: nothing to explore before you can use it.
2. Rookgaard: talk to Cipfried
You wake up in the temple, and Cipfried the monk is standing right there. He is the fastest way off the island. Say hi, then task.
He gives four tasks in order — you cannot skip ahead to the one you like. Go kill the monsters, come back and say task again to claim the reward and get the next one.
| # | Task | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kill 20 rats | 1 platinum + 50 gold + 400 exp |
| 2 | Kill 25 spiders | 2 platinum + 800 exp |
| 3 | Kill 20 bugs | 3 platinum + 1,000 exp |
| 4 | Kill 20 trolls | 4 platinum + 1,200 exp |
All four together are 10 platinum and 3,400 experience, which is most of the way to level 8 and enough money to leave the island properly equipped.
3. Leaving: The Oracle
- At level 8, go upstairs in the temple to The Oracle.
- She asks where you want to live: Carlin, Thais or Venore.
- Then which profession: Knight, Paladin, Sorcerer, Druid or Monk.
- Both answers are permanent. She warns you, and she means it.
Do not overshoot. The Oracle only lets you through between level 8 and level 10. Train past that on the island and you are stuck there.
You arrive on the mainland with a backpack holding 5 mana fluids and 5 life fluids, plus a weapon for your profession:
| Vocation | Starter weapon |
|---|---|
| Knight | Spike Sword |
| Paladin | Spear |
| Sorcerer | Wand of Vortex |
| Druid | Snakebite Rod |
| Monk | Jo Staff |
4. Your first hours on the mainland
Three things are worth turning on before you go hunting. All three are buttons in the client.
- Hunting Board. Every monster in the game is a task with three tiers. Keep up to three running at once and you get paid experience and gold for hunting you were doing anyway, plus Dungeon Tokens and Gem Pouches at the higher tiers.
- Autoloot. Add the items you care about and they go straight into your backpack. Set it up on your first trip, not your tenth.
- Weapon Proficiency. The weapon in your hand levels up as you fight and lets you pick perks. Progress lives on the item, so it is worth sticking with one weapon.
After that, the Server Features pages cover instanced dungeons, mounts and taming, the forge, rarity and the custom spells.
5. Commands worth knowing
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
| !token | Anti-theft lock. While it is on, nobody can move items out of your character, and every login asks for a second password you choose. Worth setting the day you own something valuable. |
| !train | Summons your Training Monk, and dismisses him keeping the time you have left. |
| !exp / !mana | Your current experience rate, including the stamina bonus or penalty. |
| !cast | Broadcasts your game so others can watch it live. Cast without a password and it pays you +10% experience the whole time. |
| !buypremium | Seven premium days for 10,000 gold, no real money involved. |
| !shop | Delivers whatever you bought on the website. |
| !frags / !uptime | Your frag count, and how long the server has been up. |
