Getting started

Everything a new character needs for its first thirty levels, in the order it comes up.

Tutorial

A new character starts on the Import Pad in Bunker 5 and works through a short chain of quests that teaches the game and hands over the first gear.

#	Quest	Level	Experience	Start point	Rewards
1	Import Completed		200	Inventor	10× Tiny Health Potion*, Peasant Clothes (female), Peasant Suit (male)
2	Getting Ready		200	Import Assistant	Broken Wrench, Teleport Key
3	Unlocked		1,000		Minor Fairysoda
4	Sample		1,580	Inventor	Broken Sampler
5	Another Aeven		4,000		Data Link
6	Echoes		10,000	Inventor	Data Link
7	Not Alone	10	20,000	Inventor

First quests in Aeven

Six quests around Aeven exist for the stretch from the tutorial to level 10 (added in update 0.4.24). Between them they hand over 50 eons to start Toolshop Approved, the first buddy coin, and a Broken Bow with a quiver, so a new character can hit the chickens without buying a bow first. Two of them repeat, for something to do in town.

Quest	Level	Experience	Repeat	Start point	Rewards
Happy Delivery		320	one-time	Happy Berry Picker	Harvested Berries, 50 / 20× Eon
Bat Bash	4–14	600	yes	Mine Chief	20× Eon
Rare Rock	4–14	1,200	yes	Rock Collector	33× Eon
Runaway Piggy		600	one-time	Billy Farmhand	Buddy Coin
Stinky Carrrots	4–14	420	yes	Billy Farmhand	30× Eon
Broken Bow		420	one-time	Quickshot	Broken Bow, Broken Quiver

Choosing a class

You start as a Wanderer, the one class with no type: it gives +2 Dex, +3 Vit. From level 10, Panda Kopan in Anundo gives Destiny (class): choose a class, sit at its shrine, and the class is yours. Repeating the quest is how you change class later. Each class gives a fixed stat bonus. No weapon is restricted by class, but a weapon’s bonuses may not apply without the matching class type: fighter, ranger or caster. Most spells are restricted to the class they belong to (classes, weapon classes).

Morty at Aeven North Entrance gives First Steps, which sends you to Anundo and pays 24,000 experience. The way there crosses a small maze of warps; Anundo’s Getting there walks you through it, map by map.

Levelling

The quest window has a Possible quests tab listing the quests open to you; hover one to see its giver, reward and maximum level. A quest opens at its lowest level and closes past its highest, so the tab changes as you level. The quests above are the ones built for the first ten levels. Most quests have a walkthrough on their page, and the list sorts by level and by experience.

Quests alone do not carry you from level 1 to 30, and fighting between them breaks up the routine. Under level 30 a kill can pay up to four times the monster’s own experience (experience boost), which makes this the fastest stretch to level by fighting. Watch the gift box beside your inventory: levels and bosses deliver items into it.

Training

Two kinds of ground pay twice: a quest you can repeat pays again for kills you make anyway, and the monsters near the shop that makes your set’s jewellery drop what it is made from. The daily bounties and the public events pay as well, and every ground players train on is listed under Training, with its monsters and what each pays.

Quests you can repeat

Each of these can be handed in again and again until you pass its highest level. Two suit the first levels best.

Piglet Trouble from the Piggy Farmer in Farm House pays 777 experience and 25 eons a run, up to level 14. The Piglets on Aeven Outlet are passive and drop often: Bacon on 20% of kills. The Mother Piglet among them drops a Piggy on 30% of kills. Their drops sell to the Witch in Creepy Witch House: a Piggy fetches 56 eons, Bacon 8.

Deep Trouble from the Deep Miner in Deep Mine Gate pays 1,400 experience and 100 eons a run, up to level 20. The Deep Spiders in Deep Mine are level 14 and attack on sight.

Frog Patrol	24–30	3,600	Field Soldier	169× Eon	Frog level 25 on Moonmurks

Near your set

From level 10 the quests bring you to a new set at each tier. A set’s jewellery is made or sold in one shop, and the monsters nearest it pay experience and drop what the jewellery is made from, so the same kills level you and build the set. Where the jewellery is bought, the quests nearby pay eons towards it.

Gear

Equipment progression has every piece, who makes it and its materials, and opens with the path through the first thirty levels piece by piece. After that, gear comes in named sets, one per level tier; much of a set is jewellery crafted from that region’s drops.

Money and travel

• Money. Eons come from quests, the daily bounties and monster drops; a drop's sell price is the floor under its value, not an income. What players buy is materials: set pieces, cores, gear frames and jewellery bases, sold on the auction house. Making money lists them with their sources.
• Getting around. Walk onto a wayfarer point to discover it and set it as your respawn (respawn points); unlocking it and each trip cost Waystones. Boats, airships and the train are on Travel.
