Visitor's Guide

Directly after logging in for the first time, your character will spawn on Birth Island. Arua’s Fairy would like to have a word with you! Move your character around the world by clicking on the ground where you want to go. Leave the safety of the stone circle and talk with either of the Arua’s Fairies which are near the entrances. Arua’s Fairy informs you that you are a Visitor, summoned into being by the Angel Arua herself! Your job is to help protect the Seven Hearts, or seven worlds which Arua created. Let Arua’s Fairy that You don’t know what is going on, and she will help you. As a Visitor, you being very weak but have great growth potential. Take a deep breath, and speak with the Fairy again to learn more. There are many conversation points to speak with Arua’s Fairy about. If you are a first time Visitor it is strongly recommended that you read each one as it has vital information about the Rose Online world. DO NOT SELECT OPTIONS 5 OR 6 UNTIL TOLD TO DO SO! If this isn’t your first time through, here is a list of each conversation point and their specific rewards: Want to trade Opens trade window, ignore this for now How to Interact> run/walk Visitor Sandals (armor, defense +2) How to Interact> basic skills> sit 31 experience How to interact > basic skills > pick up items 10 apples (+100 Health Points/apple) How to interact > basic skills > how to trade 31 xp Items and vending > equip/unequip 31 xp Items and vending > NPC shops 5 thin insect shells Items and vending > inventory 31 xp Battles and leveling up > battles > status points 10 status points Battles and leveling up > battles 5 bananas Battles and leveling up > death and revival 31 xp Battles and leveling up > party 5 bananas (+250 Health Points/banana) Battles and leveling up > quests 31 xp Learn faster doing it on my own Hunting Practice One quest Hunting Practice Two quest Hunting Practice Three quest If you speak with Arua’s Fairy about all of her options you should gain enough experience to reach level 2! Before you go any further, you should learn more about your stat points. Each time you level you gain a specific number of stat points depending upon your level. To see how many points you now have hit ALT+A. This will open your character information, click on the tab that says STATS to see your characters stats. All Visitors begin with the same stats, right now your character should look like this: STR: 15 DEX: 15 INT: 15 CON: 15 CHA: 10 SEN: 10 Before adding any of the points you have, you should think about what class you would like to make, and be well informed on the effects of each type of stat. STR: This stat affects the Maximum HP, the amount of items you can carry, and physical attack strength. This is the main stat of Soldiers (Knights and Champions). DEX: This stat affects your Dodge Rate, Movement Speed, long range weapon strength, and Knuckle weapon attack power. This is the main stat of Hawkers (Raiders and Scouts). INT: This stat affects your Maximum MP, Magic Weapon Attack Power, and Magic Resistance. This is the main stat of Muses (Magicians and Clerics). CON: This stat affects your Attack Accuracy, the success chance of item crafting, and the HP and MP Recovery Rates. This stat is used in all classes, but it the main stat of Dealers (Bourgs and Artisans). CHA: This stat affects your interaction with NPCs, as well as your progress in quests. This stat should only be used by experienced players as it does not increase the power of your character in any way. SEN: This stat affects the options added to crafted itesm, as well as damage of long ranged skill attacks and critical attacks. This stat is a secondary stat, However it is used mostly by SEN Artisans. Once you have selected which class you would like to be, you may begin adding your Stat points. For some ideas of what to add for a particular class check out the Birth Island Section on the forums or guides on this Wiki. Some tips and tricks for using your character: Press ALT+S. On the tab that opens you will find a few basic skills. These skills can be dragged onto your ‘quick-bar’ for more convenient use. The quick-bar is found at the bottom of your screen, and looks like 8 small boxes all connected together. Each box symbolizes a different function key (F1, F2, F3, F4, etc) on your keyboard. Try putting the Gather skill onto your quick-bar by clicking it and dragging it to the box that is the furthest to your left. You should now see the skill on your quick-bar. In order to use the skill all you have to do now is press and release the F1 key on your keyboard. Use this key to pick up any items that the monsters you defeat may drop. You can also put the Sit skill on your quick-bar at this time. Sitting helps to regenerate your HP and MP more quickly than standing does. Make monster drops visible by holding ALT while pressing and releasing CTRL. Then release ALT. This will make it so you can see what types of items are on the ground without having to hover your cursor over them. To turn this back off press and release CTRL. Monster drops are your main source of income, so it is strongly suggested that you pick these up! Become familiar with which Monster drops are valuable by exploring the Birth Island section of the forums and the Crafting tables on the Wiki. Also talk to more experienced players in game. Equipment drops come in many different colors. If the name is printed in a yellow color it is a standard version of the equipment which can often be purchased from an NPC. Blue colored names are more rare, and some are worth quite a bit more than their yellow counterparts. Speak with a more experienced player to get a better idea of what these items are worth. At higher levels, if you find an item with a Purple name you have found a Unique weapon. These weapons are often extremely valuable and should NOT under any circumstances be NPCed! Again, speak with a more experienced player for a better idea of the worth of these items. You can also look or post in the Buy, Sell, and Price Check forums to see what similar items are currently selling for. You can check your active quests by pressing ALT+Q. This will open your quest window, which has a description of each quest and how many quest drops you have acquired at that point in time. To see quick information about an item in your inventory just hover your mouse over them. Right click on items to see even more information about them! At level 2, you have a few options. All of these involve killing monsters called Mini-Jelly Beans. To start fighting, just click on any bouncing green monster on your screen. Option 1: Stay on birth Island and begin to gain more experience competing quests: If you choose to do this, speak with Arua’s Fairy and choose option number 5. She will ask you to kill 3 Jelly Beans (this is Hunting Practice One). Once you have killed 3 Jelly Beans you should automatically receive the quest reward (10 Grapes, 204 Zulie). Return to Arua’s Fairy to get Hunting Practice Two. This time she will ask you to hunt 4 Mini-choropies. These monsters are slightly harder. If you find your health approaching zero, either use an apple (press ALT+I, click the Consumables tab and double click the apples. For easier access, these may also be dragged to your quick-bar) you can also finish killing the monster then sit to regenerate your health. After killing the 4 Mini-Choropies you will automatically be rewarded. Speak with Arua’s Fairy again to get Hunting Practice Three. This quest asks you to kill 8 Mini-Choropies or Choropies in 5 minutes. I suggest that you speak with Arua’s Fairy and select option 6 at this time to travel to Adventure Plains. The creatures you are questing for are much more common there. Once you have completed the quest you should be automatically rewarded. If you fail to complete the quest just press ATL+Q and select Give-Up. At this point in time you should be nearing level 10. Continue killing Jelly Beans and Choropies until you reach level 10 Option 2: Select option 5 to receive Hunting Practice One then select option 6 to travel immediately to Adventure Plains. Once in Adventure Plains head directly to the NPC [Old Fisherman]Myad (map coordinates 5866,5135) and ask him for some help. If you speak to him once for every level between levels 2 and 8 he will reward you with some food to help you on your journey. Kill at least 3 Mini-Jelly Beans to complete the quest you received from Arua’s Fairy and receive your reward. Continue killing Jelly Bean and Choropy monsters until you reach level 10. Once you have reached level 10, you are ready to begin your First job quest. In order to start your quest you must: Run to the North side of Adventure plains Head through the gate into Valley of Luxem Tower. Beware monsters on this map are more difficult so use caution here if attacking monsters. Head all the way to the north side of Valley of Luxem Tower Proceed through the gate to Zant. Run into the town of Zant and look for the NPC Warren. He is located near the south edge of town. Speak with Warren to begin your quest. For a walkthrough of the quest, click your desired class below: Hawker Muse Soldier Dealer After completing your job quest there are a few more basics you should know: Learning skills: There are active skills which you have the ability to learn after completing your first job change. These are sold at various NPCs depending on your class. Hawkers and Soldiers should find Leonard, Dealers should find Ulysses, and Muses should find Tryteth. You can buy skills and learn them using your SP points. To see how many SP points you have press ALT+S to open your skill window. Your ACTIVE tab will hold skills that you want to put on your quick-bar for use during battle. These skills will spend HP or MP in order to increase your damage. Your PASSIVE tab will hold skills that are used all the time. These skills can do anything from increase you move speed, to increase the number and quality of drops you can get from monsters. To learn a skill, purchase the skill book from the NPC for your class. When you right click on them, skill books will have their name in yellow, a short description of them in white text, and a few lines of either green or red text. If all of the text is green this means that you fulfill all of the requirements to learn this skill. If something is in red text this means that there is something you have to do prior to using this skill book. These requirements can either be a level requirement, a second job requirement, a skill level requirement, or an SP requirement. You must fulfill all portions of this text before you can learn that skill. Double click on a skill for which you have fulfilled all of the requirements. This will learn the skill and subtract that much SP from your total. The skill will then appear in either your ACTIVE or your PASSIVE tab on your skill window. When you learn an active skill, don’t forget to drag it onto your quick-bar. For a guide on what skills to learn and when check our Birth Island Forums, or our Character Builds on the Wiki (coming soon). Second Job Change: Your next big goal is to reach level 70. At this time you will be able to start your quest for your second job change. Quests: Keep your eyes and ears open for quests! These often have great rewards and are worth the time it takes to do them. One of the best quests you can get is from [Old Fisherman]Myad in Adventure Plains, called the Episode Quest. Be sure to speak to him to begin that quest.
