Anagoge Island Starting off Assuming you've made some initial graphic, controls, and GUI changes, it's time to get back to the gameplay. The island you start off the game on is called Anagoge Island. It is also known as and referred to in this guide and by some players as “newbie island”

Animal Tips

Animal Tips Testing Cow and Pig forms as a Demo Player I don't recommend that demo players play as animals since you are not able to visit Animal Town in Sun Vale and a lot of the NPCs in Serbule seem to either hate or want to eat you if you are one. That said, there are some ways you can

The Beginning

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2024-02-05T04:40:53+00:00

The Beginning Character Creation When you first start the game, you’ll be on the character selection screen. You can choose to create whatever character you’d like. The combat and visual differences between the character races are not drastic right now, nor does it fundamentally change the gameplay depending on which race you are. The biggest differences between the races are most noticeable in some Flower Arrangement and Brewing buffs and race-based jewelry, but this is very unlikely to be en…

Buffs How to Increase Your Health I am able to run around when doing serious combat grinding with 700+ health using the following: * Two combat skills at level 80 (skills give you bonuses to max HP) * Disappointing Corn Surprise or Treas (relatively easy high level foods to create)

Casino Introduction The Red Wing Casino is located in the SE corner of Eltibule and can also be reached via a portal in the middle of the town of Rahu. It's got several gambling options, a garden, and multiple NPCs of various types, including mantises, a goblin, an Ogre, an Aktaari, and various shops. It's mostly run by the mantises, but it is important to note that the Dwarfs were responsible for most of the construction.

Eltibule Introduction Even though this zone does not exist in the demo version of the game, I did want to briefly cover a few of the skills that will be introduced here. Please note this is NOT a complete listing of everything or every skill that may start being used in Eltibule (for example, I don't even talk about Alcohol Tolerance here, though one of the dungeons introduces the player to alcohol during this time). Project Gorgon is way too big for a single guide to cover every skill in dept…

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions Why should I play the Demo? If nothing in this guide or that you've heard on the web is intriguing enough to consider playing the Demo, I'm not sure the game is for you. I think anyone who doesn't mind doing a bit of reading and playing an older school MMO is going to be extremely interested post-demo so it is a good use of your time to see if it is worthwhile. Especially because of how wide the game and skills open up after the tutorial island.

Graphics, UI and Settings, and Bugs

Graphics, UI and Settings, and Bugs Considerations The first thing you should do before you start fighting some of the skeletons on newbie island is to consider looking at some graphics changes that will genuinely improve your play experience. If you want to play through the tutorial island without making any changes and then come back to this section when you are having graphics lag in Serbule, that is also another consideration and you can skip to the next section starting with

Kur Mountains

Kur Mountains Introduction This is an experience that can be particularly brutal for any new player. On top of fighting mobs, you now must contend with the elements as well. It will only get worse in Gazluk Mountains, too, so it is important that you get a good grip on surviving the cold in Kur. Eventually, you'll be running through this zone like it's nothing special when you get to the point of doing a

Are MMORPGs Dead? Creating the perfect MMO

This page is a work-in-progress. Are MMORPGs Dead? Creating the perfect MMO Observations First a few observations... There was a video released by Josh Strife Hayes (JSH) reviewing 100 hours of Everquest. He talks in the Everquest video a little about how MMOs evolved from MUDs and were primarily chat systems with gaming as a secondary function. Even in games like World of Warcraft, it's almost as if raiding and other events are just vehicles through which to get gamers to interact with each…

20 Marvelous Surveys in Povus (Combat Logs)

20 Marvelous Surveys in Povus (Combat Logs) This is just a full combat log record of a single mining run in Povus (end game map) that I did on 9/23/2022. I sorted the maps to do them sequentially or semi-sequentially, but I did get overwhelmed by the Ratkin Blasters and die at one point and that kind of set me on a different optimal survey path. I'm also attaching a screenshot of the full loot after it was all said and done. I did not go out of my way to mine or extract other resources while d…

It is a portal located at the bottom of a lake, so you can follow the water line and may be able to see it from shore. Many players either do drown or nearly drown trying to get to the portal their first time. Inside you will find Spiders, Rats, Dinosaurs (Deinonychus), Slimes, and a glyph construct cal…

Serbule Hills Introduction Serbule Hills is an area similar to Serbule itself with a few higher level mobs and skills/trades. In the northeast at the top of the map is the Serbule Hills Inn where most NPCs are located. There are also a few farms here, both with NPCs and a few that are abandoned. The Ranalon have taken over the main body of water in the center of the map and goblins have set up camp in most of the eastern portion of the map.

Game Change Suggestions Easy to Code, Highly Desirable Mob Aggro Issues Aggro ranges also seem to be problematic from zone to zone as it seems quite different in Gazluk compared to Serbule and there's no real explanation as to why the aggro is different in some zones over others. Everyone's first experience in a zone like Gazluk is simply dying from a swarm of mobs (and not the cold!) because they aren't prepared to fight multiple enemies.

To Druid or Not To Druid

To Druid or Not To Druid Similar to Werewolf, one of the decisions you'll want to consider around getting your first combat skill to level 50 is if you are interested in all the benefits that come with being a Druid. Druid's combat skill is one of the nicer for its damage-over-time (DoT) and comes with a lot of versatility, Druid also works with a lot of animal forms, and the Druid travel options are considerably powerful. To become a Druid, you'll need to use the altar near the big tree in Sun…

To Hardcore or Not To Hardcore

Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) — 2024-04-05T00:57:42+00:00

To Hardcore or Not To Hardcore Similar to Druid and Werewolf, there is another game mode that is semi-permanent called Hardcore Mode. It's not permanent, but it is permanent in the sense that if an item breaks while playing in Hardcore Mode, you must fix it by getting back to your gravestone, and if you cannot get to your gravestone before it times out, the item will remain broken, even if you leave Hardcore Mode.

The Work Order Run Intro As Work Orders are one of the biggest ways for you to make money using crafting, you'll often find yourself doing sessions of crafting and then wanting to fill all your Work Orders out at once. In the process of doing this, you'll find that you tend to daily follow the same path or a similar one that I like to call just
