NEWBIE TIPS Keywords: NEWBIETIPS, NEWBIE_TIPS Before you head off exploring DBI for the first time, this short frequently asked questions page is designed to give you a head start in the game. Before you ask about equipment: Don't worry about it! Most starting areas provide equipment from shops or from the mobs themselves. If you really feel like you need equipment, most higher powerlevel Kaio players can make you a set - Ask the people online if anyone can make you Kaio gear! Weapons! What about weapons?: Weapons are aesthetic in nature, and provide stat bonuses but no extra melee rolls or damage. "Weapon" races such as Konatsu, or Ghetti, have increased melee damage when wielding a weapon to make up for this lack of bonus. And what about your abilities: Your abilities are going to be hard to start training, but don't give up! The more you use an ability, the better you get at it, raising its % to succeed. You will need to discover your skills and abilities with our new skilltree feature. See 'help skilltree' for more info! Remember: with the stats changes INTelligence still exists but as a hidden stat. You will raise your skills at a semi-linear rate. They should be easier to raise at low percents, and take a little longer to fully master to 100%. To practice your skills, find a training master (there is often one in each area). Some skills will require race specific trainers: Think who used the skill in the show, and they're most likely the trainer you need to find! You will need to search for them, so get looking! What about my stats: We have removed Gravity Training for your stats from the game! Rejoice! You will now gain stats naturally from doing things that correspond to the stats; using physical abilities will increase your STR faster than your SPD. The combat style that you're in will also affect how your stats increase. Read the 'help stat' and 'help style' helpfiles. How do I ask mobs questions: A common mistake among new players is to use the ASK command to interact with mobs (NPCs). The ASK command is actually a shortcut for the '(QUESTION) Channel', where you can ask other players for help with the game. To interact with mobs, instead use the SAY command. What's this Newbie Council guy do: They will give you a Newbie Transport Capsules that will bring you right back to LEGENDE if you get lost while exploring - these capsules will only work until you reach 1 million base powerlevel though! To get one, simply say capsule. What happens when I die: We have removed PL/TL losses from deaths and flees. Instead, you will receive a pl reduction for a period of time. Listen to King Yemma to leave the afterlife. Former and current players have created a resource outside of DB:I to assist in the game. The resource can be found in 'help notebook'. For the next step in our beginners tutorial, which covers beginner areas, see 'help newbieareas'. SEE ALSO: NEWBIEAREAS, START, STAT, DEATHTIMER, SKILLTREE, STYLE WEAPONS, SPEEDWALK, ALIAS
