Oh, guys. Do you collect figures of the stuff you kill, and bring them back home?

Right now I have these figures:

i got some statue of a yeek or something like it.

So, I entered the Safe Forest, and this is what I saw. Mind you, this is immediately after I entered for the first time.

[spoiler-box]http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/3962/totallynotsafelp9.png[/spoiler-box]

There are 16 Spiders, 6 Yeeks, 5 Yeek Archers, and Goda the Orc Captain. Through some very cowardly fighting, (I shot stuff until my health was low, then left to the world map until my health regenerated. Then I went back in and shot some more.) I was able to kill everything except that bastard Goda. He's a tough one. I'll need to level up or get some better stuff before trying to take him out.

This is the level 4 one, in case you were wondering. There are actually two Safe Forests.

On my 3rd reroll, i headed south, east, north-east, north, northwest. and come across a building that had a Black crystal on the floor which sold for like 1200 gold :D

it was some place filled with alters. i gotta reroll again. i just gotta stay away from city quests :( or else the guards will snipe me with super fast shots

i need to stick to pick pocketing just the wildness npcs lol. i can tell you this though, north of the first city in a room with stuffed animals talk to the girl there to start a sub-quest with no time limit. The room next down from hers has stairway leading to small monsters like puyo's (but less colorful :() after getting to a long hall way with about 5 reds 5 whites (1 block-wide so you cant get outnumbered) you'll see a blue monster that looks like a shoe/boot there is about 2 that you can see. >.< its tough but once you get a few levels you could check it out + you get some items that are laying around and good to sell for about 100gp each. or for room decoy.

this game intrigues me... is it single player?

Meyfei
Jul 25, 2008, 02:03 PM
i think it may be multi, but not 100% interactive, i haven't seen others running around but i see things like "(news) -name- has found -item- (miracle) (type) in -location-" and sometimes "(news) name has completed -quest name- and gained -# of fame-" not sure if thats random stuff or about other players.
There also is an NPC in the town who shows a list of characters with fame scores/levels.

also you can chat by pressing tab. The game is kinda confusing for me, in some ways.

:D i found out how to dig! (hail tutorial :lol:)

Yes, it is single-player. I love it anyway.

Meyfei, I was looking for those blasted putits. Thanks for telling me where to find them so I can shoot them. :wacko:

Edit: As payment for that information, there's a thieves' hideout in the northeast corner of that town. If you go down the stairs and wipe out the people in there, you'll find some weapons and a lost suitcase. If you bring that lost suitcase back to a town guard without opening it, you'll get 5 karma.

Meyfei
Jul 25, 2008, 03:35 PM
anytime :D

i'll check it out right away :D
i got a 4th roll, and am doing somewhat better on him.

Also, for easy money: Do delivery quests. Escort quests are good too, but only if you're feeling lucky.
If you pick up the begginer's guide, if tells you the locations of most of the towns. There is also your journal, which tells you where t o go next for the main quest, complete the first part when you're around lvl 2/3 with decent equipment for some easy money. Puppy's cave to the east of Vernis is also good for some easy leveling.
There is a quest you can get in the bar of Vernis to kill some thugs, also good for money and +5 karma.
If you karma drops to -30, guards will begin to kill you on sight. FAILING QUESTS GIVES YOU -10 KARMA, COMPLETING ONE WILL GIVE YOU ONLY +1. Waking people up gives you -1 Karma, fuckin shit.
You go to some town in the FAR EAST, in the snow, I forget the name, and go to the church and they will raise your karma back up to a decent level if it drops too low.
You can buy slaves in Dephy (town to the south west of vernis) if your pet is sucking too much.
Also, DON'T GET CAUGHT IN ETHERWIND! TALK TO INNKEEPERS, THEY WILL TAKE YOU TO A SHELTER.

I got a lazer on my warrior character, kickin so much ass with it. But my pet Loli hates me cause i let her die so much, I'm thinking of ditching her and just buying a slave. I also rolled a Lich Mage and he's not doing too shabby either.

Meyfei
Jul 25, 2008, 07:28 PM
:o lazergunz PEWPEWPEW!

i went to that church befor, it had a that crystal in it :D i'll run there on all my chars and see what i can fix. ;( gonna be a long walk though.

btw have you ever went into a moonstone portal? there strange.

how do you shoot?

Toadthroat
Jul 25, 2008, 11:12 PM
There is a shoot button, configure it in the options.
Also, the moonstone portal sends you to other people's houses, I think people who are connected through the internet.
If you ever pick up runes they also send you to other people's houses. There was one I went to that had blocks arranged saying "Sup 4chan?" and some alters to different gods. I prayed to one and got a bonus to STR and CON for my warrior.

Meyfei
Jul 26, 2008, 11:15 AM
:o burying bodies instead of looting gives +5 karma. first portal i went to, there were blocks and in the chat box it kept saying "someone freezes time... tick... tick.. tick... time starts again"

my house looks like a dungeon in a castle :D

Tact
Jul 26, 2008, 01:16 PM
I should go through these moon portals and see what happens. I should arrange my stuff in the shape of a wacko so you guys know whose house it is. That is, assuming the randomly selected house is mine.

Meyfei
Jul 26, 2008, 05:12 PM
:( be careful, mine got a blue baptist and a red wasp. (i cant even hit them ;_; ) lol i got -63 karma, so much for my house being safe :(. i even stole like good armor from some guy in derphy, i stole all but like 2 things from him. he was an npc with about 12k+ fame

Tact
Jul 26, 2008, 05:24 PM
I drank from a well once and a Lizardman and a Red Wasp promptly leapt out of the water and killed me. :wacko:

Thankfully, the town guards helped me dispatch them when I got back.

Meyfei
Jul 26, 2008, 05:59 PM
i magically went down to -19 :D or i guess up is the proper term.

i found a lv1 cave, got through it, Lazer gun (pewpew) FTW. to bad i died to the boss crab lv6. good thing i got fire breath now cuz if i see a boss BWA-HAHAHA. fiah'd baby now im just trying to get even better equipment + lvl and whew, a deed so i can have a safer home lol. (btw boss was gone when i came bad :(, had some catchy music playing to. also it lets you know "dungeon lord -name- lv# is guarding this room"

Can't find any easy quests and I am constantly dieing.
Any recommendations on race, class, weapons, jobs, etc?

I'm a Warrior and I'm getting by just fine.

As for race, just try anything except Snail and you can do well. :wacko:

Meyfei
Jul 26, 2008, 06:22 PM
worse combo is snail+tourist. best bet would be imo golem and a class of your choice i picked thief because thiefing is fun (only in games+npcs)

OH and don't open scrolls/books inside your house cuz i read a book/scroll and now monsters lurk inside my house :cry:

haha, i went into a moonstone and im in a room full of locked doors and i get my lockpicking increased :cheer:

When you step onto a dungeon tile on the world map, it tells you the Danger Level of that dungeon. The higher the Danger Level is, the harder it will be to beat the dungeon.

Think I'm getting the hang of it.

Meyfei
Jul 26, 2008, 09:28 PM
quests difficulty are based on amount of gold. if your offered around 2-4k its gonna be tough. as for escort whenever i did it ( i didnt know where to go) i would end up being attacked by assassins and the client would die instantly. :(

about 8 more "dead body" events and im back to reasonable karma. if you think i'm having trouble with the cities. your right, but compared to monsters (and one who teleports) roaming my home, its nothing :P

How exactly did you get monsters in your home again? Did you read some scrolls and one of them happened to be a Scroll of Summon Monster?

(Yes, I know you posted this before. :wacko:)

i have low reading skill so it was from a unidentified book and a scroll. ._. they sit there.... waiting... for... me!

Toadthroat

Protip: That weird symbol by the quest on the quest board in town determines its difficulty. Red is hard, green is easy, blue is so-so. Delivery missions are the easiest quest for good money. Simply take an item from one town, deliver it to someone else in another. Town guards can tell you where to find whatever NPC you're looking for. Also, quest related NPCs have a small, teal "!" above their heads. Sometimes, if you have the karma to spare, and if you're feeling lucky, its good to take a really hard escort mission to a nearby town. If you're lucky you won't run into any assassins and the escort will go by without a problem, and you'll get a nice easy 4-8k reward. Read the begginer's guide book you pick up at the beggining of the game to tell you where the towns are.

Reading books/scrolls in town or your house can sometimes produce bad effects. One of those being random monsters showing up. Get your learning skill up to avoid this, or don't read books. Or read books in town around guards and shit.

Once you hit level 6, you gotta start paying taxes. You pick up your bill in your salary box in your home, and go to the town above Palmia to pay it.

I've never done the entertainment quests. I think those are good for Pianists or races with good cha/performance. You can play piano or buy a lute to entertain. You can also do it in towns and the towns people will throw money at your feet.
