Hey all. Been on the server a week or so but this is not my first time doing something like this. I am going to post some info that i would like answered and would be very helpful if it was posted on the Wiki.

--------
Towns
--------
The Exact procedure for towns is kind of hazy. On the wiki, it would be very helpful to have a guide on how to start your first 10 person town (i doubt many new players will be starting anything higher)

Such as:

1. Gather 10 players and create a charter using /charter create "town name"
2. Have your players type /charter sign "town name"
3. Gather 7500c in total
4. (after this point i am clueless)
- Do you buy the land yourself and choose a plot?
- Do you choose a plot, submit an application and have an admin mark your land?

Once you have a plot down (100x100), what can you do?

Create locked doors/chests, give permissions? etc

------------------
Monster Arenas
------------------
Using the portals in nexus do not work
Procedure for entering your first monster mission
What items you should bring with you
Cost
Group make up and average level required to reach 25%, 50%, 75%, completion.
Difficulty per MA

--------
Shops
--------
What is required to create a merchant shop
Cost to obtain a shop plot
Procedure to obtain a shop plot

---------------------
New Player Guide
---------------------
This needs to be drastically updated to help newer players get accustomed to the server

1. Where to go at level 1
2. Best mobs to hunt
3. Best method to make money
4. How to sell items to players and a list of players that will buy them
5. Maybe a wiki list of active/recruiting clans/cities

-------------------
Starting City
-------------------
1. Main features of this city? (trade district, houses for sale, class trainers, MA's etc)
2. How to purchase a house plot in this city


If someone could update the wiki or answer these here and i will update the wiki it would be terrific and VERY helpful to myself and anyone else that comes along.

Now for PRIORITY #1

Myself and 9 other friends have started on this server. We like it but after last weekend and the mob changes we are finding it VERY difficult to level and catch up to all the other guys roflstomping us due to levels/specs.

We want to donate and be an active force here but when we have to spend 10x longer attempting to XP it is very disheartening. Thanks!

most things can be found on the wiki or by searching the forums and asking players - feel free to help getting the info out to new players

Thank you for your feedback. I highly appreciate suggestions on how to update the wiki/improve it.
I'll make sure that all articles are easily understandable for new players :)

If you have more suggestions, you can always send me a pm :)

How about those links are placed inside the chat, hyperlinks already work since I can click the donate button Ingame when I log in.
So Links to help things inside the chat like /skills ?

I think the Guides could do a good job by better refining the wiki with the Wiki team - dont you?

@Kainzo How about recruiting more people for a complete revamp of the wiki as I feel that we don't have enough people working on the wiki at the moment and most articles still contain a lot of information from pre-dragongarde maps.

Is there any place to sign up for the wiki team? I'm about a year away from graduating with my Bachelors in English, and I'd be more than willing to help write/tidy things up to ensure clarity and consistency.

I'm newish here, so maybe I'm jumping the gun a bit... But still, I'm interested. :)

Is there a wiki team? Anyone can edit the wiki so what would the team do that someone else couldn't? ;o
