Beginner’s Tips

1. Focus on the quests in the early parts of the game; you will get tons of experience than grinding on monsters.
2. Invest your money in potions and high level gears.
3. Join or create a team (party) to earn more experience points and able to finish the quests more quickly. Also, forming a team gives you buffs that enhance your attributes.
4. Once you reach level 20, focus on Activity Instance and Daily Quests once in a while to invest points.
5. Don’t spend your Obliterate points in upgrading low level equipments; invest it in the later levels (around level 25 above).
6. Join an Alliance (guild) as much as possible; being a part of an alliance gives you a chance to participate in alliance-exclusive activities, earn more skill and obliterate points and complete instance dungeons faster.
