After you started the client, entered your ID and your password and you chose a server (at the moment you don't have to choose anything, there is only one server for now "Chaos", you just have to confirm that server), you will see a window with three strange pads without any content. Do you also see that button in the lower right corner of the window with "make"? Click it and you will get to the character-creation window. Now you have to enter a name for this character, choose a haircut and a hair colour and to choose your status values for the beginning (look below for more info about all that). Now you have to confirm that character by clicking the "OK"-button in the lower right corner of the window. You can see your new character now in one of those strange pads. Now select him/ her and press enter or click the "OK"-button again to enter the game ^_^. Have fun and welcome to Midgard.

These refer to your status points at the beginning of the game.
There are 6 different types of status points:
STR: That's your physical strength. It affects your normal weapon-attacks and your maximum weight limit.
AGI: Your agility. It affects your flee rate (= evasion) and your attack speed.
INT: Your intelligence. It affects all kind of magic. Your magic attack and magic defence will increase with your intelligence.
VIT: Your vitality. It affects your defence and your maximum of HP (Hit Points = Life).
DEX: Your dexterity. It affects your hit rate, the maximum distance and attack strength of bows you are using and your casting time for spells will be shorter with a high dexterity.
LUK: This is your luck. With lots of luck, you will do a critical hit (= enemy defence will be ignored) and a lucky dodge (if you a dodge luckily, even the strongest attack will miss you. That's the second way to dodge enemies' attacks, but it won't work as often as a high agility) more often.

You can change the values of those stats by just clicking on one of those arrows.
The value you clicked on will increase, the coupled value will decrease, both by 1.
STR is coupled with INT
AGI is coupled with LUK
DEX is coupled with VIT
So if you want to increase your starting STR by 1, your starting INT will decrease by 1.
The maximum value of a stat is 9, the minimum is 1. Choose the right status values for the kind of character you wish ;) (Look below for some tips).

We can offer some advice for the different job classes. Of course you can choose however you want, but these are typical choices for the different jobs:

Thieves take lots of AGI, some DEX and some STR, some others like to take LUK instead of STR and DEX (so we suggest you take about 9 AGI, and about 9 STR [you won't need INT] at the beginning).

Most swordsmen (or "swordies" for short:P) take lots of VIT for high defence or lots of AGI to help evade monster attacks. The rest would be STR and DEX (suggesting you take about 9 AGI or VIT and about 9 STR at the beginning [you won't need any INT anyway]).

Magicians (or short "mages") take INT, INT and INT. All their main attacks are stronger with lots of INT. Additional DEX or AGI to shorten the casting-time of their spells (suggesting you take about 9 INT, 7-9 DEX and 9 AGI at the beginning).

Merchants have to choose weather they want a pure forger or a fighter. Pure forgers have to take LUK and DEX and nothing else. That's because the success rate of forging is influenced by DEX and LUK. Fighters should skill like swordies (suggesting you take about 9 DEX and 9 LUK and 9 STR [you won't need INT again] as a forger and – like a swordie as fighter).
Archer should take DEX (to increase the distance and attack strength of their bows) and some AGI (for faster attacks) (suggesting you take 9 DEX , 9 AGI and 9 STR [won't need INT …]).

Acolytes (short "aco") have to choose, too. There are support-acos and
fight-acos. Supporter should take INT to increase the strength of their heals and DEX shorten the casting time. Fight-acos – just like swordies just with a bit more of INT (suggesting you take the same stats as a mage for a supporter and same as a swordie as fighter ;) ).

You can't. Your gender is set when you register. Every one of your characters will have the gender you chose at the registration.

Look at the server rules:
"Character Names may contain only letters A-z (Big and small), the numbers 0 to 9, hyphen (-), underline (_), point (.), komma (,) apostrophe ('), exclamation mark (!), Dollar symbol ($), percentage symbol (%), slash (/), ampersand (&), backslash (\), equal symbol (=), question mark (?), asterisk (*), plus (+), hash (#), colon (:), less than (<), greater than (>), semicolon (;), round bracket open ((), round bracket closed ()), blank (ASCII 32), and . The permitted characters may appear multiple times in the Character Name.
Umlaut and special apostrophe like ` are not allowed as well.

At the creation of your characters you can see three arrows next to and over the little boy/ girl on the left side of the window. If you want to change your hair colour, just click on the arrow over the person as often until the colour pleases you. Same with the haircut - also called hairstyle. You just have to click on one of the arrows on the left or on the right of the little boy/ girl.

If/When you selected one of your characters, a button named "del" will appear in the lower left corner of the window. If you click it you will be asked if you are sure that you want to delete that character. Click "OK" to confirm. Then you will be asked for your e-mail address. Just enter the e-mail address you have entered at your registration. Now you have to wait 10 seconds and *zooooommm* that character will be gone for ever ;) so be sure.

Go to character selection, use the Button in the bottom left corner and insert the email address you used for registration to authorise the delete. Your character will be deleted after 10 seconds.

Please check your keyboard setting to see if it is in English, Turkish or German. Maybe the letter z and y have to be swapped.

Please click on the map just in front of your character with the mouse.

Please click on the bubble.

Ok. Step by step ;-) At first you are able to learn the "Basic Skill" (ALT+S). If you want to level up, you have to collect skill points. Like Base EXP, you will collect it by killing monsters.

Please use ALT+S or the Skill button in "Basic information" Window. You will see on the left side the icon of the base skill and on the right side the word passive. If you want to know what you are able to do with each level do a left mouse click. If you have the "LV UP" click on it. Now you have leveled up and can use the skill level.

The game will be saved in a continual way. If you leave the game (Logout), it will start at the same position at the next login. A special case is the save point you can set at a kafra. When you die, you can enter the game at this save point.

If you died, because a monster or enemy is to strong for you, you will loose 1% of you experience. Items, Zeny and level remains untouched. A selection will be displayed, where you are able to choose to return to windows, to return to the last save point or to go back to the place you died. In the last case you are still dead. Your only hope is that a priest is nearby who might resurrect you. But be not sure about it, because you might have to wait for a long time.

You will not loose experience. Because of that town invasions are popular among players..

Click on Option in the Basic Information Window. You are able to set up the Options like Background music (BGM), Effects and Skins. If you want to change options like size, you have to log out and start the setup.exe in the Ragnarok folder.

If you are in game, you will find a box at the bottom divided into two parts. Put some text in the right part of the box and press enter. You will the text over the head of your character. All players on the screen are able to see it, too. They can respond to you.

Please whisper to him. It is easy to do. Please type in the name of the player in the left hand-side of the box that is divided in two at the bottom of the screen. Write the text you want to say in the right hand-side and press enter. If you want to talk to everybody again delete the Name in the left hand side.

Please right-click the player, you want to exchange items and press "Offer a Request to (playername)".

The player will get a request for exchange. If you want to change drag the item from your item window to the exchange window. At the bottom of the exchange window you will find an entry field for the amount of money, if you want to exchange money.

They might use shortcuts with the F12 window (Press F12). You can use F1 - F9 for shortcut by dragging items or skills in the shortcut window. press F1-F9 will make use of the skill or item.

If you click on the monster with ctrl pressed already once the monster will be hit consecutively. So can lay back, but check your health points.

You will find monsters everywhere except the cities. Monster, which are living near the cities are weaker than monster which are living far away.

Yes. There are monsters you can defeat only with a group of people the best idea is to form a party with other players for example. You can join a party at Base skill 3 and create your own party at Base skill 6

Some monster are aggressive and so they attack players when they come near so just be aware...

Try to defeat the poring near the cities. If you have more experience, try Fabre, Chonchon, Lunatic, etc. Don not be frustrated, if you are dying from time to time it happens to us all!

MVP means something like "Most Valuable Player", but in fact these are just very strong monsters. You will find them deep deep in dungeons. Look out as you may not be able to defeat them on your own.

According to the rules it is allowed. Drops and MVPs are "FFA" (Free For All). Kill stealing and looting of course do not apply here.

Well, look around a little bit and you will notice them they are a special kind of an existing monster. They are different in color but most importantly they are much stronger than the usual monster which they take from. Mostly they are not alone so beware. (Excample: Yoyo->Choco and Lunatic->Elipse)

One thing about town invasions by monsters is that players do not loose experience if they die in a fight and also its tons of fun.

You need at least Basic Skill Lv 7

Easy! Just type in following command: /organize partyname

Simply rightclick on the player and choose "You are asked to join the (playername) party"

Maybe your friend hasn't yet reached Basic Skill Lv 5? Or he declined to join the party by clicking the "No" Button in the "Do you want to join"-window?

Type in following simple command: /leave ^^ Works as a leader and as a normal player

OK, lemme explain: Each Take is standard and means everybody gets the exp of HIS monsters (as would normally happen out of a party) For Even Share the members have to be in a range of 10 levels up or down. What does Even Share mean? It means basically "I kill a monster and we split the EXP in the party". Only the party organiser can set this option.

Hehe! Not very nice ;) BUT if you are the leader, you can rightclick in the partywindow on the name of the player to be kicked out (ouch!) and choose "Expel from party" and wops! he's gone! :)
