Where is the newbie forum?

[CharlieCubed]

I have many questions but didn't want to bore the veterans - but I can't find a newbie/guide forum.

1. Can you redo your attributes once you get from lost soul to a class? Gather you keep attribute selection for each class?
2. I'm guessing attributes don't matter for profession?
3. Any guides on good beginner class/prof/attribute selections/combinations? Found a single forum thread with one attribute suggestion per class that's it.
4. There are very few shops near exchange - do most use trade channel? Does that mean shopkeeping isn't worth the effort?
5. Are there any class/profession/trade items that are more in demand?
6. Servers. I assume your exp/level and money are carried over between servers? Timeline on RPG server? FFA is used for mining?
7. Seems like Herocraft is aimed at PVP but population is too low for regular even battles?

Thanks,

CharlieCubed

Hiya @CharlieCubed and welcome! There isn't a newbie area - this is a fine spot for your questions.

1. Attribute allocation points are gained as you level your class. When you change from the base classes to a specialization class, you start again at zero and gain 8 points per level again.

2. Attributes only apply to the combat classes, correct.

3. The thread you found is likely it. Ask also in game in help or O chat - many players are keen to discuss classes and attribute allocations.

4. The economy is a bit flat atm, yes. You'll find shops in the trade district near the Exchange (you've found that) and also near graveyards and the exits from the spawn areas. Trade chat is a good place to buy/sell specific items.

5. Don't have an answer for you on this one, sorry.

6. Exp / levels / money are carried between PvE, PvP and Central, yes. FFA isn't open currently. RPG - not sure.

7. New Townships code is currently in final testing and planned for release very soon. It incorporates offence/defence and sieges. This will likely bring interest in PvP back again. (Yes, population levels are a little low atm. These things fluctuate.) If you're interested in getting a feel for the new code and helping to test it out, a war event is scheduled to start in a day or so if you'd like to join in. See this thread for more info.

5. Are there any class/profession/trade items that are more in demand?

For professions, enchanters will always make money selling godpicks/unbreaking swords ect. Smiths are also useful for quality of life. Wizards are another way to make money because of Ports/Group Teleports to spawn and various locations around the maps.

For Classes, go whatever class appeals to you Heroes as a plugin is reasonably balanced with no class being to weak, or to strong.

For Items, codexs used to switch between classes, rare weapons with good enchants (looking at sharp 6+) watch out for trade chat as that is where everything is.


7. Seems like Herocraft is aimed at PVP but population is too low for regular even battles?

There is regular pvp on the server, mainly between the few key towns that are active if you want to pvp get involved with an active pvp town.
