I'm excited about this game due to the fact it has a lot of customization as well as the sandbox type of gameplay. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-44600 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 10:44:48 +0000 villa_grande 44600@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>@rocket Well that's usually a part of ANY rpg game. you have to do quests or kill monsters to get stronger. I heard that there are unique ways to level up here anyway. Like doing farmwork or building houses. A different take on an MMO i think. :) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-44599 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 10:43:27 +0000 rocketgirl17 44599@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>@villa I'm not being negative.

Please tell me what you think. :D </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43937 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 04:18:17 +0000 villa_grande 43937@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I’ve finally come to finish the remaining part for the ten tips I was trying to accomplish since a while back. It has been an experience trying to write and express myself. I have learned from those who commented and give tips on what to improve. So here is the last part. Please comment and tell me how to improve myself. Thanks!</p> <p>7. Aim to exceed quest requirements for bonuses</p> <p>Quests require you to turn in some items obtained from monster drops or based on the number of monsters killed. Once you speak to an NPC, he will mark the quest as done and give you the appropriate rewards. You will then be compensated for your efforts. However, it might seem like a paltry sum compared to the amount of travelling and hunting you have done. There is a way around this though. Give around 150% of the requirements and you can enjoy higher returns on your questing. I suggest doing this since you travelled far to kill monsters anyway. Might as well get an extra feather, pelt, or two. Doing quests this way makes it faster to level up and will help in the long run. </p> <p>8. Focus on quests for livelihood</p> <p>In ArcheAge, the livelihood element is a big part in increasing your character’s strength. There is limit in training a character by means of combat since you would need to take part in siege warfare or PvP. You must produce weapons for either defending or attacking a castle which means that emphasis should be put into production and manufacturing. As such, resources are needed and these can be obtained either by foraging in the world map or by tending your own farm. Foraging is limited since you will be competing against other players for scarce resources. Having your own farm means that you have a steady supply of materials at hand. The only downside is that players can invade your garden to either vandalize or steal your hard work. Make sure you take care of your home as it is one of the vital parts of leveling and gaining resources. </p> <p>9. Visit a priest or sister after your character dies </p> <p>After level 10, a penalty is applied every time you die. You lose some of your experience points when this happens. This is extremely annoying especially after spending time trying to level your character in the first place. To solve this, make sure you visit a temple and talk to the priest or sister there. You can recover up to 90% of the lost experience by using your labor points. This will be a definite lifesaver once you reach the higher levels and get killed aggressively by any PvP players.</p> <p>10. Increase move speed when you can.</p> <p>Once you reach level 5, you gain access to abilities that can increase your speed. This ‘speed’ ability is like sprinting which drains your stamina while in use. You can use this skill repeatedly in order to travel from village to village. This is especially important for early players who do not have access to pets or mounts yet. While traveling, you may find tonics that restore stamina and help you continue on running. Make use of this skill as early as you can in order to get a lot of things done.</p> <p>So far that does it for the 10 tips I have discovered in the game. I will try to make more updates when possible. Hope you enjoyed what I was able to write down. Have a great week everyone! </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43800 Mon, 18 Feb 2013 07:30:04 +0000 diehardest 43800@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>7-10 please :) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43692 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 08:50:51 +0000 villa_grande 43692@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Arche Age – 10 tips part 2</p> <p>Hello guys, sorry for the late post. I have been busy with . Hope that these next 3 things in the list help you out.</p> <p>Thanks to those who took time to read part 1. If you enjoyed it then I am thankful. To those who found it problematic, I’ll do better in my writing. I’m far from being great but we all have to start somewhere.</p> <p>4. Save colored / special equipment<br /> As with most MMO games, monsters and quests give you both valuable and junk equipment. You can distinguish such by the way their names are colored. These can be highlighted with green or other colors depending on their rarity. Be sure to save some of these items even if you don’t plan on wearing them later on. You see, you can get an archium material through a sort of disassembly process. This material is needed to make luxury equipment later on. So be sure to save them. Sell the other items you don’t need to ensure that you get some cash inflow for your character. I snagged some green level robes from a monster hunt but I don’t think I’ll be wearing them anytime soon since I’ll put it through disassembly later on. Gotta learn how to do so first.</p> <p>5. Acquire resources quickly and use labor points aggressively<br /> The game has a labor component that is used as the primary option for accumulating resources. By expending labor points, you acquire resources from trees, ores, and other places. Labor is then recovered at a rate of roughly 1 per minute, For instance, if you see an ore patch or tree while roaming the map, just collect from them. It’s similar to that in Skyrim where you get to chop logs and get ore from mines. Also, logs and ore are important minerals that can be traded and used later on.<br /> At level 1, you have 1000 labor points. Cutting a tree down gives xp too, so fighting monsters isn’t the only way to level up. It regenerates even when you are logged out of the game, I believe. That’s even more reason why not to skimp on using it.</p> <p>6. Take your pet and always train it<br /> In this game you get pets which can be used for movement purposes (mount) and combat. Depending on your pet and how you raise it, you get to learn and assign skills as it too levels up. Be sure you always have your pets with you so that they too gain experience and level up. I’ve heard that you can use them for battle but I’m not sure if this means they aid you in monster hunting or if you get to use them Pokemon style. Take note that while you can use your mount to attack, it is significantly weaker than your battle pet. You get pets at different quests. So far, I only use a basic mount and have no battle pet.</p> <p>I'm having less time to try it out since I have other things that need to be done. See you again next time when I get to the next part of this series. Have a great week guys! </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43443 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:22:19 +0000 villa_grande 43443@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I'm almost done editing the part two ;) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43412 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 03:41:25 +0000 diehardest 43412@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Anymore news about this game? </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8344#post-43209 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 04:40:31 +0000 villa_grande 43209@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Thank you!
