Regras de etiqueta

Em acréscimo às regras do jogo, gostaríamos que você tivesse em mente as seguintes dicas de etiqueta:

1. Não roube o drop de alguém sem permissão (no caso de outra pessoa ter matado o monstro, e não você).
2. Não roube o kill de alguém sem permissão (no caso de você matar um monstro só para ganhar experiência, sendo que já havia alguém tentando matá-lo).
3. Seja educado, gaste tempo conhecendo pessoas ao invés de apenas perguntá-las algo sobre o jogo. Siga as regras sociais como se fosse na vida real.
4. Nunca faça aos outros aquilo que você não gostaria que fizessem consigo mesmo.

Primeiros passos

Também veja a página Entendendo o jogo.

Quando logando pela primeira vez, você nasce no subúrbio de Tulimshar, ao norte da Grande Cidade de Tulimshar. Parabéns, e bem vindo ao mundo de The Mana World! Imediatamente, Sorfina falará com você. Então você aprenderá a jogar e conhecerá melhor os comandos. Você também receberá um Cotton Shirt no baú perto de você. Abra seu inventório (F3) e clique na Cotton Shirt, e então equipe-a. A Cotton Shirt te permite ficar nu pela metade, ao invés de completamente pelado. Ela também aumentará sua defesa. Um pouco depois, você receberá uma Knife, que lhe será útil para matar monstros como os Maggots.

Você ganha level matando monstros. Matar monstros é o que você basicamente fará pelo resto da sua vida, então acostume-se a isso. Você pode tanto clicar num monstro, quanto alvejar o mais próximo apertando "A" e atacando com "CTRL". Torna-se muito mais fácil destruir monstros se você alvejá-los e pressionar "SHIFT" e "CTRL" juntos. Isso fará com que seu ataque não pare caso você se mova.

NPCs (Personagens Não-Jogadores) são personagems do servidor. Você pode facilmente identificá-los pelo nome azul acinzentado. Você pode clicar neles para bater um papo, conversar sobre quests que talvez eles possam te dar, vender itens, ou até mesmo curar-te. Se você andar à direita e para baixo através do portão onde você nasceu, um NPC chamado Elanore irá curar-te gratuitamente até que você alcance o nível 10. Note que se você atacar segurando CTRL, você pode se curar clicando nela ao mesmo tempo. Isso deve ajudá-lo a rapidamente avançar pelos 20 primeiros níveis, lutando contra Fire Goblins.

Once you've killed a monster, it dies and looks dead for a few seconds. It may drop an item. You can stand on top of the item and press "G" or "Z" to get the item. If you want to use it, it is in your inventory. If you can't use nor equip it, it might be a quest item or an useless item. Useless items can be sold to any NPC that buys and sells items, such as Neko. Although different shops sell with different prices, they all buy from you at the same price. These prices are listed thoroughly on Item Reference. If you aren't sure if an item is useless or needed for a quest, keep it and ask more experienced players.

From the beginning, you can directly start to get the basic skills (presented on the Skills page). These will give you needed skills, skills that you use every day.

Press "S" to sit. This makes your automatic recoveries go faster. You can also hold "Alt" and press any of the numbers 1 through 0, as well as the minus symbol, to emote, or show an emoticon above your head after you saw the Entertainer.

Raising your Stats

• When you gain a level in The Mana World, you are awarded points that you can distribute as you please between the various Stats.
• Essentially, only two routes are beneficial in the long term, and the community refers to them as Warrior (or Melee) and Archer (or Ranged). It is not effective to be a magic user until high levels.
• For further details on each stat see the Stats page.

Warrior

The Warrior is more difficult to train as it eats up 33% more stat points than an Archer, and is more vulnerable to attack from monsters. However, the Warrior has the greatest potential for making money, because there's no need to purchase arrows. The weapon of choice for a Warrior is a Short Sword.

• STR is important to increase the base damage of the Short Sword's attack. You can increase this until you are satisfied with your base damage. Note that strength has low priority at the beginning of the game. For example if your attack does 100 damage,and there's a monster with 390hp you will only beat this monster in less hits when you increase your strength with 30 values. If you use the points required to raise STR 30 points on AGI and DEX instead, you will attack a lot faster and miss less.

• AGI this will influence the speed of your attacks.

• VIT is always important because it raises both defense and maximum health, as well as speeds up your idle healing rate. It also makes healing items heal you an extra percentage of HP. Always increase this.

• DEX is important to the Warrior until somewhere in the 50-60 total points range (level 12-14 w/ Scythe [read below]). This is only to ensure that your attacks aren't evaded by high level monsters.

• LUK is also very important to train because it lowers the amount of critical hits you take, and also raises your critical hit ratio.

Finding a good balance is rather tricky, and players tend to disagree to the ideal ratio. Therefore the best advice I could give you is to take head in what your character really needs during fights, for example if you want to start fighting snakes but can't hit it means it's time to raise DEX...

Archer

The Archer is the easiest to train because only two stats are needed to make it strong, and because it can kill monsters more rapidly and efficiently. However, the Archer is dependent on a lot of arrows for its livelihood, and so a lot of inventory weight and money will be taken up by Arrows. The strongest weapon for an Archer at this time is the Forest Bow. This can be obtained in two ways: One, by doing the Forest Bow Quest, or two, by buying it at the North Mining Camp Shop for 20,000 GP.

• DEX This is the most important stat for archers because it raises both the accuracy of your attack and adds to the base damage of the Bow. Many Archers are content to stop raising DEX in the 80-90 range, while some others would max it out completely before even starting to touch their vitality. With a 9 levels of the Mallard's Eye Skill, raising DEX to 100 is important because it allows +3 Range instead of +2.

• AGI this makes you attack faster, it's very important, always raise it.

• VIT is always important because it raises both defense and maximum health, as well as speeds up your idle healing rate. However as an archer your attacks are ranged, thus you rely on this far less compared to warriors. But eventually you will need this for narrow maps that are crowded with monsters.

• INT If you want to be able to heal as an archer you will need a bit intelligence though it is possible to keep it at level 1. You will pay yhis ability with less defense as you will need to use less magic penalizing items like gloves.

Mage

The Mage is one of the easier to train at a high level because you need to have quite a lot of particular stats to be a good mage. You will deal high damage using Astral Soul Skill and by learning Spells. A lot of items are needed to cast good spells but once you are really familiar with the game, it will be quite easy for you.

• INT is th essential stat for a Mage. It increases a lot of things such as Magic Attack and Magic Defense. You will be able to deal great damage but don't forget, you will need certain items for your different spells.

• VIT is always important because it raises both defense and maximum health, as well as speeds up your idle healing rate. However as a Mage, it will only keep you alive from deadly attacks.

• note that attack spells (war magic) are affected by intelligence (number of "shots", power) and by agility (rate of fire). There are "speed mages in game.

• LUK Some of you may prefer to be tanked mages at higher levels (over 90), hence have enough luck to avoid critical hits along with high vitality.

Malivox

Malivox is a NPC, who can reset your status points. So if you want to change your class, or you maybe accidentally raised INT instead of DEX, or whatever makes you want to redistribute your status points, just visit him.

Magic

See the article named Magic.

Tips

Try to complete the quests at the level they are designed for. They provide, money, items and often a lot of experience that will help you to progress whether you are interested in it's achievement or not.

It becomes fairly difficult to level up after this point, but it is not entirely uncommon to find players with levels in the 80s, and not impossible to get up to 90 and beyond. It does take a lot of time and work. If you are ambitious about becoming one of the highest level players in the game, be prepared to put in many hours, sometimes many hours at once to reach this goal. Here are a few pointers:

The Scythe

The Farmer's Scythe is one of the most commonly used weapons in the game, and was for a time considered the best. (This was due to a bug which allowed you to do much more damage with it.) It is now easy to obtain and it helps newbies to evolve in the game more easily (+75 Damage). To get this "deadly" weapon, you'll need to go to Hurnscald. To get there, visit the dock on the eastern side of Tulimshar. You will need to pay 250 GP for transportation. Once you arrive in the center of town (near the Soul Menhir), head north, go slightly north-east and you will meet an NPC who looks like a farmer. He will give you a quest to bring him 10 Pink Antennae. It takes time but with determination it can be done quickly. The alternative solution is to ask someone if they will donate Pink Antennae, its not best to buy them from someone since you will need to save up for equipment.

Training locations

South Tulimshar mine (archers 10+, higher for warriors)

West Tulimshar beaches (levels 30-60)

The Snake Pit (Hat Makerâ€'s Cave) may prove to be more dangerous, especially if the pit has bedded itself in front of the entrance. Players should approach the pit with caution and go in groups when possible. The spawn rate is incredible, and Snakes give 400 EXP a pop.

For archers with high dexterity (80+), training might also be beneficial in the Desert Mountains southeast of the Snake Desert. The Mountain Snakes are more defensive and aggressive, but 500 EXP may climb up those levels fast if the player can score steady hits.

Terranite cave is a nice place to train with it's spiders, undead and Terranites (60+). Watch out for random killers; It is a PvP area!

Higher levels can train in the graveyard. Snow Mountains and their caves also provide large areas for training, both for little and wide groups of players. These are really high level places with nice and hard quests.

Mages with high vitality and intelligence can train themselves on a Jack O in the graveyard or on top of the mines, north of Hurnscald.

Crypt TBA.

Training technique

Your wrist is going to get worn out in those long training sessions. Try mapping your keyboard so that your attack and target keys are more ergonomic to your hands as you can do this through the client in Setup. I personally use "A" and "Z" on my computer, which greatly helps my own training endurance.

Another good trick is healing on demand. Stock up on your healing item of choice (I prefer Beer... I collect Apples ;p) and make the Inventory window small enough that it doesn't block much of your area of vision. Now keep that item selected, and you can simply click Use whenever you need a quick heal. This is even better if you have a recent client with the item shortcut bar. I toggle the healing item to use and just heal with one keystroke when needed. Keep in mind that we now heal over time.

The Economy

See the Economy page.

Endgame

Once you have gained enough levels and money that the eternal grind begins to bore you, you have multiple options for spending your time:

• Finish all the Quests.
• Practice Magic and finish all the Magic Quests if you haven't already.
• Become an obsessive collector. Outfit Wars may help you in finding the competitive gatherer within you.
• Beat the Challenge of Candor. Multiple times.

And, of course, you can become a developer: see below.

Final thoughts

So you have completed your item collection and levelled as much as you care to. You've finished all of the quests. What else can you do? Well, one of the great things about The Mana World and Open Source software in general is that anyone can help improve it and further it along. There are many ways you can do that even without any "programming" knowledge.

The more active players the game has, the more potential programmers will be introduced to the game. And the more potential programmers we have, the faster the development will go. That means new features, items, quests, etc. for everyone. How can you help nurture a large active player base?

Well, as you may have noticed before you read this guide, the game has somewhat of a difficult learning curve for new players. Many more experienced players help newbies with quests and items - some even go so far as to create an account devoted solely to that purpose.

How do experienced players pass the time while we wait for new content? Simply put, we make our own quests and events, stimulating competition among players and giving out prizes as incentive. This is a great way that we keep other players from getting bored and quitting, and anyone can get involved with it.

Most importantly, if you have the time and a little bit of know how, you can influence the development of the game directly by helping to code TMWServ, scripting new items, making pixel art for new tilesets, NPCs, monsters, etc, as well as mapping. Mapping especially is very simple and done in a freely available editor called Tiled, which you can read more about on the Map development page.

Doing all these things is easier when you are not working alone; indeed, bigger projects can be tackled much faster in groups. Although there is no integrated guild system in the client yet, players have started their own "unofficial" guilds (see Player Groups). They all serve different purposes, but at least one devotes itself to the purpose of furthering the development of the game through the three methods above. Consider joining a guild like this to be a part of a player community that seeks to better the game. You won't be losing your individuality (usually!) in doing so.
