• To acquire different crafting skills you have to go to Artisan District. There are variety of NPC to choose which crafting skill you want to learn.





• When you move your cursor over a monster the icon will change into a Sword. When you Left-Click on a nearby monster you will enter Battle Mode. You also can join a battle with a monster that is already in battle with another player if you belong to the same Guild or Nation as that player or are a friend.

- Right-Click on a monster and select 'Details', you can view its level and Battle Formation. (Available only if using a Patrol License)



If the monster is already in battle with another player, you will also see the option to 'Observe' which will allow you to watch the battle without participating in it.
The color of a Monster's Name is based on the level difference between your character and the monster:

- If the monster is 10 or more levels below your character's level, its name will be Dark Blue.

The first player can use one mercenary, the next player gets two, then the first player gets three. A maximum of 5 mercenaries can act each turn.



• Mercenary Formation - When a mercenary or character's position is a disadvantage during battle, or when you try to change the battle array of your mercenaries for strategy, then you can change the mercenary's position. There are 2 ways of doing this:

• During Battle
On the battle menu at the right side on the bottom, if you click the move button (shortcut key D), and move to the desired position, the mercenary will move to that position, Mercenaries' action power is consumed when they change positions.

• Outside of Battle
You can select Formation from the My Info menu at the top of the screen. Click the mercenary and click the position that you want it to move to. It will then move to that position.

• Action Power - Action Power (Or AP) is a measure of how many actions a mercenary can take per turn. Generally, each turn restores 25 - 150 action power depending on a mercenary's class.

In battle, action power is consumed with each action taken:
- Attack - 100 Action Power
- Search - 50 Action Power
- Guard - 50 Action Power
- Move - 50 Action Power
- Wait - No Action Power
- Magic - 50 or more Action Power (Depends on the magic skill)

A mercenary must have 100 action power for you to choose an action to perform. Magic also requires 100 action power to start but the amount subtracted is depended on the magic skill and its level.

When your action power is negative, you must recover 100 action power in order to move again.

Individual Dungeon

• Individual Dungeons, aka Indy Dungeons aka Indies, are dungeons that are only accessible to players who use a key to access that dungeon and members of that player's party.

• Individual Dungeons have cooldown (CD) periods, during which they are inaccessible (usually 20 hours). You can view your dungeon cooldowns in your Character sheet (Alt+N) under the Dungeons tab. You can gain Dungeon Points by completing Individual Dungeons.

• Individual Dungeons are usually limited to a formation of 6 characters (Main Character + 5 Mercenaries). If a player has more than 5 mercenaries but does not manually disable at least 3 mercenaries when starting a battle in an Individual Dungeon, mercenaries will automatically be disabled at the start of each fight, starting with the lowest level mercenary and working up, until the limit is satisfied.

Guild Dungeon

• Guild Dungeon is a special type of time-limit dungeon that can only be opened and entered by a Guild member, usually a Guild Leader or Guild Chief Officer. It's usually comprised of multiple floors with many mobs to kill, and since requirements for clearing tend to be rather high, squad preparation is a must.

• Once the dungeon is opened, an instance is created which lasts for two hours and is only accessible to members of the guild that opened it. A certain guild level is required to in order to use the access keys. Monsters in Guild Dungeons scale to the level of the highest Main Character in the current Party when Combat starts.

• Reward Boxes for completing Guild Dungeons are mailed to the Guild's Leader upon dungeon completion. The leader can then choose to distribute those boxes as he/she sees fit. They are typically split up evenly among participating players.

Nation Dungeon

• Nation Dungeon is a special type of time-limit dungeon that can only be opened and entered by a Nation Officers or Leaders. It's usually comprised of multiple floors with many mobs to kill, and since requirements for clearing tend to be rather high, squad preparation is a must. Like Individual Dungeons and Guild Dungeons, there's a cool-down period once a dungeon is closed, regardless of it ending in victory or defeat.

• Some nation dungeons cannot be attempted with a full 9-character party, and so some mercenaries must be disabled by each player. Nation Dungeons reward players with Nation Tokens and Star Stones. Monsters in Nation Dungeons scale to the level of the highest Main Character in the current Party when Combat starts.

• Reward Boxes for completing Nation Dungeons are mailed to the Nation's King upon dungeon completion. The king can then choose to distribute those boxes as he/she sees fit. They are typically split up evenly among participating players.

• Market is a central place for buying and selling items across all towns on a given server. The goods and items listed on the Market are available for purchase from any town. The market can be accessed via the Town Menu in any town.

• Buying - There is no tax for purchasing goods. When you buy something from the market, it uses the gold you have on you to pay for the item. If you do not have enough gold, you need to take more out of your bank account or earn more gold to pay for the item.

- You can buy items from the market on the 'Buy' tab. You can find items for sale by category (e.g. Armor, Medicine, Crystal) or by just typing part of the item's name and clicking 'Search'.



• Crafting Materials - On the market's 'Buy' tab, if the item listed can be crafted, the Material form will list the materials to craft that item, so that you can see which you already have and how many and you can easily jump to the market listing for each of those materials.



• Equipment with Slot and Star Stones (Gem) - You can use the 'Special' button on the 'Buy' tab to search for equipment that already has Star Stones equipped. This button opens the 'Star Stone Ability Details' dialog.

- Here you can set criteria to filter equipment search results to only show those with Star Stones that meet your criteria. For example, Star Stones with Strength bonuses.

- Remember to close the 'Star Stone Ability Details' dialog after doing a specialized search, or it will apply the filter to your next search and the search will probably return nothing.



• Selling - You can list as many items or stacks of items for sale on the market as you have slots available at the top of the 'Sell' tab. You get 12 sell slots until level 90, then 1 more every 10 levels.

- Select an item or stack of items in your Inventory (you can reduce the quantity in the Qty form to sell a partial stack) and click the Register button to register the item for sale on the market. You can only sell one stack at a time of stackable items.

- There is a tax for listing an item - this tax may vary from 1% and up. If there is a controlling guild in the town where the item is listed, 50% of the listing tax will go to that guild. So, if you are in a guild that owns a town, you should try to list items on the market while in your guild's town.

- Once an item is sold, you will get a notification in your Notes and the money will be deposited in your bank account.

- The maximum price for a single item is 9,999,999,999,999 gold (10 T-1) gold.

- Over time, an unsold item that remains listed will automatically have its listing price gradually reduced.

- If you have an item that surpasses the maximum price limit, you can sell it directly to other players via a Trade.



• Market Rate - The market in each town has a % rate it charges for putting items on the market. That fee goes into the town and the town's controlling guild can take out some of that gold. The controlling guild can also start the starting market rate. Most towns set their fee to 1%.

- Higher value items automatically get higher market fees assessed. Items of value over 1,000,000,000 are assessed at 2%, over 10,000,000,000 at 3% and over 100,000,000,000 at 5% (this is the top rate).

- Rome and Antillia, which cannot be controlled by guilds, have their market rate at 2%.
• Fixed Item Price - Some items are so crucial to the game's economy that they are offered by the game itself for a fixed amount of gold and in infinite quantity
- For example, Growth Vial (I) and Growth Vial (II). Every single character needs many Growth Vials and Growth Vial (II) is one of the materials to craft the higher level Growth Vials.

Lots of things to digest right? That’s it for now, and see you again for an advance guide for other hardcore features of the game! Hope this article helps you in deciding your path in the future!

Stay strong Atlantians!
