waste of time. i think if nothing happens it's a fair bet that your not doing something right. common sense really. nothing is fun if it has to be spelled out for you every time. Yet there is - or should be - a difference between "slightly wrong" and "really on the false track"....

So, what do you propose? More messages from the server like "You touch the stone with your *thingy* but nothing happens."? Something like that or responses like "that seems to be a silly idea" and "trying to cut wood with your sword seems to be a bad idea", maybe more ...

I think this discussion should continue IG before too much is given away. Suffice it to say that all the required information is available IG through interaction, reading books or simply experimenting with items and the environment. nuff said. As said, the books aren't all that helpful if they tell...

I dont think he even knows what you must have to summon a guardian. *clears throught* Miraci polishes... Miraci meditates while holding... Get it? I didn't even know that there is something like your so-called 'guardian' involved. To you it may look everything clear and easy. But just imagine if yo...

Just as an addition... I've nothing against the concept that information like this is difficult to obtain. Yet I find it more than problematic that you can't discern the professions from one another (the people look all similar, so you can't tell a mage from, say, a lumberjack) and randomly bugging ...

EXAMPLE: "LUK for the mummy LUK for the tailor" is written in the books. Pay close attention to this phrase. I cannot give you a hint, but know this. Figuring out these on your own builds character (no not the pixel guy). Even more so the phrase "SIJ is found at the shoreline", ...

Maybe. Once you have some starting money it becomes easier to obtain more, so that shouldn't be a problem. Next I've discovered that obtaining runes seems to be impossible for me. Another thread in this forum states that one has to ask around ingame, but so far I get answers that may fall into one o...

A hint: Try to get hold of a longsword or dagger so you can kill pigs more easily. This way, you can start quite well as a tailor or leatherworker. And that's the typical chicken-and-egg problem: Where to get some of these, especially with no money and no way to 'relieve' the soon-to-be-former owne...

Yes, of course... Maybe I've put in the wrong words: So far I haven't seen any possibility to pick up ANY trade without outside help. You have no money, you don't have any decent weapon - and you have to have at least one of them to get started somehow.

No chance to get started?

Created character, applied for an account, got the acceptance (really quick, I must admit, good work) and tried today to get started... somehow. Now the problem is, you start with a simple hammer, a shovel, and nothing else. As a self-respecting elf one doesn't want to live off by begging, so I trie...
