[Guide]: Basic Templates for New Players (Part 1) 2/2

mis · October 8

The mount that we will carry for our melee will be a Swamp Dragons with armor (Dragon Barding), these creatures when they have armor, depending on the quality of the armor, reduces pvm combat damage received by the rider by 10% in normal quality and 20% in exceptional quality. If you don't have a tamer character, ask a tamer for help or buy this creature from another player, additionally if you are a blacksmith you will need to make a Dragon Barding Deed which is the armor that the creature will wear, if you don't have a blacksmith you can ask a blacksmith to make this armor for you or buy it from other players.

I recommend the race to be Elf, because Elves have an advantage over humans with the Night Sight skill, a skill that will allow them to see in the dark, like dungeons or at night, +5 to Energy Resistance cap (75 total) and +20 Mana Increase Bonus, among other skills, but these are the ones we are interested in for these templates.

The basic Stats will be 100 STR, 100 DEX and 25 INT, being an Elf race, more additional mana is available, which with Focus, MR, LMC 40% and weapons containing Hit Mana Leech, will provide a supply of mana for our special moves.

Dexterity is basic to be at least 100, because dexterity is key to our attack speed and healing speed with bandages, the more dexterity, the faster in both.

Additionally for our adventure we will need potions, we will carry with us a group of basic potions such as life, healing of great poison, strength, agility, and refreshment to recover stamina, if possible all of greater level.

These potions will give us additional life, cure large poisons from poisonous snakes like Silver Serpent or undead creatures like Rotting Corpse, additional strength that will bring more damage to each hit, dexterity that will give us more healing and attack speed and refreshing, for when the exhaustion by attack received or magic spells weakens our speed by lowering our stamina, we can recover to continue with the battle.

With these templates and basic configuration you will be able to face with courage ruthless wizards, demonic creatures and dangerous creatures that will try to harm you.

It will also allow you to live the experience with more adventurers that you will find along the way, such as mages, fighters, tamers and bards that in a synchronized teamwork you can go into the depths of the darkest places where creatures with great power nest, known as Champions and Peerlesses.

'I was in the abyss, where I was surprised and cornered by a Greater Dragon, the scorching heat of the lava caused my fingers to slip when I wanted to heal my wounds, I felt fear and the creature felt my fear, the Greater Dragon's eyes turned red to invoke its dragon breath, for an instant came to my mind words of Dupre when he taught me to fight with the sword 'Do not show weakness before your enemy', I drew my sword and courageously ran towards the Greater Dragon.'
