A Newbie in Need of Nelp!

[dan6622]

Hello! I am tried of screwing up my RPG accounts and I wanted to start this one on the right track. I am currently downloading and I have never played this game. I hear its great so I trying it out. I really like archer/scout whatever you wanna call it but im getting tried of them. I think I am going to be a Fighter. But will it be easier to start a fighter after i have a high level Cleric? How long will that take to make? I also want a good PVP class. What would that be? Hopefully a Fighter. Would anybody help me in game when i get started with a small money donation and give me tips. Please reply
Thanks~

Well, a fighter is always a great class for new players to start on. The other choice for that is cleric. Clerics are hard to level since they cannot solo very well and need to rely on parties a lot, because of their low damage. Also, fighters are easily the most PvP dominant class, followed very closely by mages.

[dan6622]

Ok great! So I should start as a fighter. But in this game is it hard to reach the next level? Like when im level 50 would it be difficult to get to level 51 by killing monsters?

For the class thing, it really depends on what type of person you wanna be.

Fighter : All brawn (High Attack, Defense) no brains ( Low Magic...) I can describe a Fighter in two words- Pow Wow. A fighter can deal high damage easily. Fighters have high attack and defense and hp.

Clerics : Clerics, one of the most useful thing bout them are they can heal, and heal, and heal even more. If you have one in your party you needn't worry bout dying (except when the Cleric doesn't pay much attention to your pt members hp, or goes afk, etc etc) Clerics can also buff people round, sometimes the nice ones will yell "Buffing at *specific place* , come stand in front of me" etc etc. Just think bout a white mage wielding a large hammer.

Archer : Archers are the ones who has many DoT skills, Damage Over Time. Who woudn't enjoy watching a monsters life decrease quickly while you run around the monster, doing nothing? Archers, depending on what you do with the stats you get when you level up, can either be a hard hitting archer, or the type who enjoys watching the monster hack away at you, with the words MISS floating above it's head.

Mage : Aaah, my favourite class. Mages, with their abilities, can slam damage into the enemy. Don't try to whack the enemy with your weapon unless you enjoy dieing. Mages focus solely on their abilities, and SP, which is needed to cast spells and skills. I haven't got much to say bout this class, except it's something the opposite of fighters - no brawn, all brains.

Leveling Up
I woudn't say it's hard to levelup, but as you progress through the game, it would probably get harder to lvlup. Mostly, money and exp for leveling are in quests.

http://www.outspark.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33207 This is a guide filled with quests from LV1-20

Also, you get a job promotion at Level 20.

If you run into trouble, or have any questions, don't hesitate to post in the forums, *most* people are willing to help you.

Well, I would say you start out as a cleric first. Try to play to lv20 to get a hang of the game. Once you get used to it, you can make a fighter, delete your cleric and get all of the extra money you have on your cleric to make a little boost for your fighter. One thing though, fighter burns SP pots and stones very quick.

I actually started out as a cleric, made her to 60+ then I made myself a all brain mage (meaning full INT). He is now a killer but also very squishy. Well, I least I did kill some fighters in PvP with him. So ya.

[aperturelaboratories]

Fighters combine high damage output with good survivability, so they are fairly straightforward to play. They are also one of the main PvP classes (the other being mages). As mentioned above, however, be warned that fighters burn through SP very rapidly.



Would anybody help me in game when i get started with a small money donation

A bit of free advice: Asking for handouts is A) rather pathetic, and B) an excellent way to make people NOT like you.

If you're in need of seed money, join a guild academy. Head to one of the "Guild Managers" in town (hit M for map, then mouse over the NPC icons to find the right one), select "Guild Academy", then "Rankings" and enroll in one of the top 5 or 10. They tend to give the best rewards.

To enroll, you can either follow the Guild Manager menus, or while in the Rankings window, hit F or G to open the community tab, click "Guild Academy" then click the "Enroll" button at the bottom and type in the name of the guild.

Guilds set their own academy rewards and many give cash rewards. In an academy, you receive a guild buff when someone level 9-39 levels and the guild set reward. Academies are also great ways to get answers to questions quickly.

[dan6622]

Thanks for all the tips and help!

[yikarru]

The money thing, just wait until you're level 10, join an academy and for every level you'll usually get paid.

It's a good way to start off. Just make sure you join an academy that offers rewards for your work :P

A good academy will always answer your questions and help you with item prices.

[dan6622]

Hey I just started to really get into the game today and really play it. It seems really fun! But when I level up what should i spend my points on? What should my builds be? Should I be all STR. Or if I get END up will that cut down on how many stones i'll need? Im only lv8 but how do u join a academy? And also how do I get a title?

Thanks~

Fighter is the ultimate pvp class. Everyone has one tho, so youll have to work to be any good.

As for ease.. Its easier to make a fighter, imo, when you have a higher level char (70+) that can fund the money for it. Fighters are cheap til about level 50 (where I recommend you buy a 50+9 axe). From then on youll have to fund a +9 weapon, and +9 gears, which can be quite expensive for fighters.

[dan6622]

Ok so is a archer a cheap way to start? Should I make a 70+ one?

[KatieElisa]

I suggest you at least get your fighter to 20 and see if you like it. Maybe try the same with the other classes and see which you like best. There is a section for each class in the Class Discussion forum. You'll find lots of good advice on builds there.

You won't be hitting 70 on any character any time soon without putting major time and real money into it. (More cash shop, easier leveling) I'm not saying you can't level without the Fiesta store, but it'll take more time. I think it's more important to have fun while leveling than to level fast, so I don't put a lot into leveling packs or experience bonuses. I also wouldn't recommend spending real money on Fiesta until you're well into it and know that you like it.

As for stat points, pick a build that sounds good and stick with it. At level 30, you can get a stat reset scroll to fix 10 stat points, but if you do your research in the Class Discussion, you should have a good idea of what you want to do with your character and maybe not need it.
