basic 'how do things work?'
first off, thank any one who reads is with the intention of helping me out.
1) picking a character, what is a good character for a beginner to choose? ie, if you don't utilizes skills to the best you can still play, and be an asset to a group. 2) which of the 3 sides to pick from? ie, what does it really mean in terms of how does it affect your character? 3) death... do you loose xp? do you loose gear? is there a corpse left behind that you have to retrieve.. what happens if you don't/can't? 4) Powers: it appears that they are completely flexible... ie, you can put every point you get early on into the first skills, and then just reset them latter on when you learn some thing new that you want to focus on. is this the case in this game? 5) where can I find stats about equipment and such (pages and pages of raw data to read while bored at work ) -- I have read the beginners guides and I feel I know the interface now how to play the game, but nothing about how to play the game (not the best phrasing, but you know what I mean) above were the questions I still have. I have played MMORPG games online before (the 4th coming, EQ) ty. |

1. Depends on what class you want to play. Look at this link to find out more.
2. Join Alsius or die! I mean... Certain races from certain realms have different starting attributes and certain races are restricted to certain classes only. That's all there is. Refer the link above for more. 3. Death by mobs or suicide (i.e drowning) will give you necrostacy (temporarily reduced stats). Death by getting PKed does not have any penalties. For all types of death, you get sent back to your altar if you ressurect. Conjurers may revive dead players on the battlefield if you wait for them instead of ressurecting. 4. Yes. 5. I wish I knew too. But this game isn't very item based, you'll get to know most items related to your class fairly easily. |

If you start a newbie char, and do the instructions and quests tell you at that stage, then you'll get a feeling for how to play the game fairly fast, so don't fret (:

GIGO305 I played a game called " The 4th coming" for many years, "Diablo II" for a few months, and "EQ" for a very short period.
Katiechan, thanx for the encouragement, but I have spent many of the wee hours doing some slow leveling of low lv chars, and doubt /be disappointed if Regnum was any different. amade, been to the link b4, ty any ways for link. thanx for answering Q's -- have more questions, but I'll just dive into the game for a while and play. where can I find specific edict rules for a realm? I know the 'don't be offensive' that is just common courtesy /sense but some realm's have others that one might not necessarily think of by oneself. how long can you have an account be idle (ie, not logging into the game) and remain active? /or is an account permanent? |

I think the accounts are permanent. There doesn't seem to be any statements from NGD which says otherwise. |

Actually, I think the population between Ignis and Alsius is more or less even now. Syrtis is still the one with the larger population although lately I see less zerging going on.
