Guide to Rise Of The Pirates Open testing!

Basic Information

Okay so I'm sure you guys all know how to create a character so I won't bother to tell you how to do that, since it's already very straight forward.

Alright, so when you first start the game you will enter a cut scene, it introduces you to the NPC Sarah, she will give you quests to your storyline and also, make sure you read the dialog!

Your first quest is to find the doctor.



In case you guys didn't know this game has a very useful function to find NPC's. Whenever you need to find a NPC type this into the say or ooc dialog box "Where is [Insert NPCs Name]" (Without the brackets) eg. Where is blacksmith

When you try to talk to a NPC/Object you interact by pressing X.

The quest you get from the doctor is to get some mushrooms for him to do this you walk left from the hospital and find it.



To pick up these mushrooms you press X, X can be used to interact with other objects as well, like things that are needed for crafting which is used when you're in a profession.

After you finish the mushroom quest, as you would with any quest, go back to the same NPC to continue the storyline! When you finish talking, go back to Sarah.



If you ever don't know what quest you are doing you can always check back in your quest log by pressing L.



After this you now need to find the blacksmith and get your first weapon!



This is one of the times where you can use "Where is blacksmith" to easily find him. After you finish talking to the blacksmith you will find that you have gained some experience, escudo (This game's currency) and an item (not always obtainable in quests).

You will also notice that you have leveled up!



In this game levels grant you stats which are the basis of your attack's damage, defense and other factors.

To make use of these stats you have to put in stat points, you do this by going to character > invest stat points.



Then you see this, the following stats are to determine your damage, defense, dodge and also critical damage %

Strength - Melee attack (Close range)

Defense - Melee Defense, Dodge (Close range)

Spirit - Spirit attack (Long range)

Will - Spirit defense (Long range)

Agility - Critical Damage%^,Attack speed ,Attack damage (All ranges with the exception of spirit based attacks)



When you get to the blacksmith you will see a selection of 3 weapons.

Combat Gauntlets - Strength

Slingshot - Spirit

Small Katana - Agility/Strength



These will determine the class you get in the future, there are also 3 other weapons you can get but those require you to have the money to buy them, they are the hammer, crush blade and bow!

To equip your weapon or armour you double click it!

Good luck in future quests!~
