My Information

General Info

▲ press 'P' in the game or click ‘My info(P)’ at the bottom right menu to open my info window!

• House Fame

House Fame is a combination of your character’s level, energy, contribution and life skill level.

It measures the ‘level’ of your family, indicating how much your family has grown.

House Fame consists of Combat Fame, Life Fame and Special Fame. Adventurers will receive House Fame Funds through the mailbox every day according to the total amount of Fame accumulated.

▲You can check your House Fame through the My Information window (P).

The House Fame Fund is provided through the mailbox everyday upon your first login. You can collect any missed House Fame Funds upon your next login, even if you have missed logins. For example, If an Adventurer who receives 1,062,000 silver coins everyday for their House Fame Fund forgot to log in for 3 days and logs in on the 4th day, they will receive an accumulated House Fame Fund of 4,248,000 silver coins.

▲ House Fame Fund is sent to the Adventurer’s mailbox everyday upon login.

• Family Name

Your family name is a unique name chosen for all of your characters, on a specific server. It is displayed above every character you create, and once set, it can only be changed via the pearl shop.

Please note that the family name is chosen before character creation after a server is selected.

• Constellation

This displays the constellation to which the character belongs. NPCs of the same constellation feel fond of the characters and feel more familiar. There are effects such as acquiring more amity at the time of story exchange or getting familiarity from the first meeting.

The constellation of the NPC can be found in the story exchange window or in the knowledge window (shortcut key H).

Constellations must be set when a character is created, and the constellation set at the time of creation cannot be changed again.

• Energy

This is the point that can be usefully spent when the character interacts with the NPC or performs certain actions in the game.

It is mainly used when the characters become familiar with the NPCs or learn specific knowledge. The maximum number of energy points that have been increased is shared by all characters in the family.

However, the energy point that you currently hold may be different for each character in your family.

The energy point is restored by 1 in 3 minutes for a connected character and restored by 1 in 1 hour for a character not connected.

Therefore, if you need to consume a lot of energy, it may be helpful to create multiple characters.

Also, you can recover energy more quickly if you deliver repeated quests from some NPCs in a town or lie on a bed you installed in your residence.

The maximum points of energy start from 10 and get increased each time you complete a knowledge topic.

The easiest way to increase the maximum points of energy is to talk to all the merchants in one town.

• Contribution point

This is a number that indicates the extent to which you have contributed to all manor places, which can be used in any manor. This point is used to Invest in the exploration base to link trade routes or invest in production bases to send workers. Also, it is used to purchase a house in town or borrow certain items or rights from an NPC. You can take back the contribution point you spent on your investment and rental at any time.

The easy way to raise your contribution point is to do a quest that gives the contribution experience.

Resolve the troubles of NPCs and enjoy various benefits. If you discover a new area or sell trading goods, your contribution points will increase.

• Level

Levels serve to measure your progression and give an indication to your strength. As you level, you will receive skill points, carry weight, and vitality, along with resistances.

The level difference between a monster and player can be identified by the color of the monster’s name. While killing low-level monsters will have diminished rewards, higher level monsters will yield greater experience.

• Health

You will gain health points matching to your health level, increasing the amount of damage you can take.

Over time, any lost health points will regenerate, but you can restore health quickly with potions and certain abilities.

When your health is reduced to zero your character will be knocked unconscious. Once unconscious, you are allowed to revive on the spot with a special item, or you can opt to return to the nearest node or town.

• Skill assets

In order for a character to use a skill, you need unique skill assets for each character.

Warriors, Giant, Musa, Maehwa, Kunoichi, and Ninja use WP as their skill assets.

The skill assets of Sorcerer, Ranger, Tamer, Witch, and Wizard are MP, and the skill assets of Valkyrie are represented by SP.

Among skill assets, MP and WP are recovered gradually over time, but SP is not recovered over time.

Most skills use up skill assets, but you can also use certain skills to attack or defend your opponent to restore a certain amount of your skill assets.

A powerful skill consumes more resources than any other skill.

On the other hand, if you use a skill by a unique command instead of registering it in a quick slot, you can also reduce the consumption of skill assets.

Depending on the skill assets of each character, you can also restore your skill assets using the MP / WP / SP potions.

Potions can be purchased through General Goods Vendor NPC in each town or can be obtained as rewards from completing certain quests. Also, you can recover as much skill assets as the size of the potion: the small / medium / large / extra-large.

▲ Every character has skills to restore skill assets.

If you find it hard to get the MP / WP / SP potions, or that the weight of potions is burdensome, it is also possible to restore skill assets with Herbal Juice obtained via Simple Alchemy.

To get Herbal Juice, gather Sunrise Herb, Dry Mane Grass, Silk Honey Grass, Fire Flake Flower and process them with Mineral Water using Simple Alchemy (shortcut L)

Herbal Juice weighs lighter than potions and has the advantage of being used by all characters regardless of their types of skill assets.

You may further process Herbal Juice through simple alchemy into Concentrated Herbal Juice, High-Concentrated Herbal Juice, and Refined Herbal Juice, which can recover much more amount of skill assets.

​​​​​​​

▲ When preparing a skill assets potion, make sure you can use it.

Through skill specialization, add recovery effect of MP / WP / SP to a skill to effectively manage skill assets without depending on the potion or Herbal Juice during combat.

For every 2 levels achieved from the time you reach 50 level, you can choose one skill and two of the effects provided and make them combined.

The effects that you can employ for skill specialization are various including Attack Speed Up, AP Increase, etc. If you employ the effect to recover skill assets to the skill you want to specialize, it will be a great help to supply skill assets during battle.

▲ a character of 50 levels or more can add skill assets recovery effect to the skill you want to specialize.

• Weight

A number that represents the weight of the items you can hold at a time.

As your body gets heavier, your movement speed and attack speed decrease slightly.

Item weight limit cannot exceed maximum 170%.

Therefore, if the item weighs close to 170%, you may not be able to acquire or purchase additional items.

The speed is normal up to 100% of weight, slightly slower at 101 ~ 125%, very slow at 126 ~ 150%, and impossible to move after that.

Notice that you cannot jump after the weight exceeds 126%.

Mounts such as donkeys, horses, carriages etc. can carry more weight than the characters do.

However, silver cannot be loaded on a vehicle, so you can load other heavy items on the vehicle to go back to the light state.

▲ As weight increases, movement slows down, so you need to empty your bag or unload items to reduce weight.

• AP

It is the sum of the attack power of the equipment worn by the character, and it affects the amount of damage when the character attacks with skill.

The attack power figure summarizes the attack strength of the worn equipment, not including any increase due to Magical Crystal or skill specialization.

• DP

It is the sum of the defense power of the equipment worn by the character, which reduces damage from opponent's attack.

• Stamina

Stamina is a number that indicates how long a character can be active without getting tired.

If the stamina increases, the character can sprint (Shift + W) for a longer time, and some stamina skills can be used more often.

If stamina is all used up, there will be disadvantages, for example, the sprint will not be possible and the swimming speed will decrease drastically etc.

The stamina gets filled up quickly again over time.

However, it does not recover naturally if some skills are in use or the character is sprinting or swimming

• Karma

The numeric figure represents the character's Karma. When hunting monsters, the figure goes up, and when you do PK or stealing, the figure goes down.

Karma figures decrease when you try to steal (F2) from behind the NPC and when you kill a wild horse.

If the character is level 50 or more and has activated the PvP mode and attack or kill another adventurer, the Karma value will decrease drastically.

If the Karma value is less than 0, the character's name is displayed in red, and the character can be attacked by the town guards.

If the Karma value of the character over level 50 or more is lowered to less than 0, the character may be attacked by other adventurers.

If you die in a state where the Karma value is lowered, there may be major disadvantages such as the decrease in enhancement value of the equipment worn by the character and dropping the items you possessed on the floor.

Potential

The value represents the potential inherent to the character.

You can increase potential through various ways such as wearing equipment items that bear the effect of increasing potential or using up a cooked dish or elixir etc

The basic resistance value for each character is 20% for each section, it can be increased through using up supplies, or by certain types of equipment items or using the skill that increases resistance value.

Also, you can increase resistance value through the unique effect born by the equipment item or the magical crystal etc.

It is possible to increase resistance temporarily by using up supplies such as a cooked dish or elixir etc, or executing a unique skill of a character.

Even if you increased resistance value to be 60% or more, at the time of PVP, resistance value available is up to 60%.

Other than that, if the opponent adventurer has the effect of ‘Ignore All Resistance’, the resistance values actually applied may be lower than it is shown.

• Stun/Stiffness/Freezing Resistance: The higher the number, the greater the chance to the opponent’s Stun / Stiffness / Freezing debuff effects.

• Knockdown/Bound Resistance: The higher the number, the greater the chance to the opponent’s Knockdown/Bound debuff effects.
