The Basics

You have just made your archer character, and you should be in a city called Roumen and have only a few pieces of copper and the basic Shortbow in your inventory. It might be a good idea to equip your bow first before doing anything. To do that, press "I" key or just select the inventory from the bottom bar (the icon should look like a backpack) and just click on your bow and then click on either hand in your character equipment slots (it will go in the left hand anyway).

Now you are ready for combat! Now as level 1 player, you should probably start off with slimes. Slimes can be found in Roumen using this map:

Now, at first, slimes may seem very hard to kill, but don't despair! To level you only need 10 Exp, and each slime gives 1 Exp, thus you have to kill 10 slimes (You can see how much exp you need If you press the Character icon or "C" for shortcut). After you kill 1 or 2 slimes you may notice, that your health is low. You can either rest in a home ("Home" key for shortcut), or use HP stone ("Q" for shortcut). Now I suggest is that you use the home to rest, because HP stones are limited and you have to buy them in order to use them again. Plus there is a cooldown of 3 seconds, and that is also another one of it's disadvantages.

Anyway, whichever method you choose, you should have your HP full, and you can engage in combat again. After killing off 10 slimes, congratulations, you are now level 2!

You may notice that, when you level, a Coocoo bird appears on your screen. Click on it, and you should see something similar to this "Robin is looking for you in (Roumen)!" This is a list of quests that have become available to you. You may go and start those quests and do the tasks assigned. If you complete a quest, you will be rewarded with Exp, Fame, money and sometimes with an item of your choice.

Well, you have just learned the basics, and so the game should look a little easier to you. Now you are on you own. Good luck!

Kiting

Kiting is basically a hit-and-run technique, however you need to have a Speed increase scroll in effect in order to use it. Just attack the monster, and keep hitting him. If he gets too close, then run away at a safe distance, and hit the monster again. Repeat this technique until the monster is down. Or you can do it without the scroll, hit the monster until he is almost in front of you. Then run until your spells have recharged and fire it at him.

Hiding behind objects

Now, this is not a technique, this is merely a bug in the game: You can shoot the arrows through objects, such as a tree or a fallen log, however the monster has to go around the object in order to attack you. So you can hit the monster, hide behind a fallen tree, and shoot again, until the monster comes too close or until it dies.

How to Lure

Ok In this guide i will tell you how to Lure with an archer so that your party can get to the enemy without attracting a Massive train. First you will need The following: A Bow/Crossbow Natures Protection A Good party Hp/SP stones A Buff (optional but recommended if in a high lvl area)

Ok first Find a good Spot for your team to rest, preferrabley somewhere where enemies dont spawn but are near to where they do so The Puller can pull with ease

Ok once youve done that its time to sleect your victim. Then Make sure your party is ready, then shoot The victim with a normal shot to provide less aggro However if your party is high lvled then you can do a poison shot or bleed, etc. so as to provide extra damage

As soon as you have shot run back to your party with the monster following

Then walk by The main Tanker, should use Snearing Kick (or any variation of Taunt) to Attract the Aggro to them. Then IMMEDIATLY use Natures protection to destroy any aggro The monster has against you.

Now that the enemy is fighting your party its time to step in and deal as much damage possible with poison etc. hopefully your party will keep agrro, if not then use natures protection again if it comes after you. Ok now all you need to do is keep on fighting until he is dead

CONGRATZ you ahve succesfully lured

Just a few tips:

If your fighter doesnt use taunt then DONT run away as you will probobly just get more enemies on you, (However if you are right next to a agte to another field then you can go through it to avoid the enemy)
If the above case happens just stand still and use natures protecion and hp/sp stones until your party manages to attract aggro
If you dont understand what Aggro is Look below

Aggro, What is it ?

Every monster has Aggro Basically Aggro determines which Player to attack, The more you attack a monster the more aggro it will have against you, the maximum aggro it can have is 99 in which case it will come after you and attack you until you die or until you run long enough for it to get bored (which is a very long time) Using natures protecion puts the enemies aggro toward you at 1 making you the lowest threat possible. When a fighter uses Taunt they gain alot of aggro. If your aggro is higher than the aggro of the player its attackign it will come after you.
