Free to Play Guide
I was going to make my own guide for newbies but I highly recommend this one below instead. It is a lot of information to take in but all of it is pretty important for you to know so that you can avoid making the mistakes many people do. I will give you a list of things you really need to know/accomplish right away and then send you off to the newbie guide so you can figure out how to do it.
1. Armor - The armor(clothes) you start with are complete shit. You really need to get some decent gear and the way to accomplish this fast is to tag(hit with 1 stamina) Zone 8 Raids as they drop substantially better gear than you start with.
2. Legion - The two things that determine how much damage you do are your armor(which you dealt with in step 1 and your legion). As with your armor your start legion is also horrible. The guide will tell you where to get a better legion and where to get troops to fill it with. When you click on the legion button you will see a list of legions(once you have more than one). Whichever legion is highlighted when you leave the legion page is the legion the game will use when you hit raids.
3. Magic - You will get different spells you can cast as you move along. The guide contains some very detailed information on where to get spells and which ones to cast but until you know what you are doing use this rule of thumb. Haste and anything with the word Doom in it are pretty much always ok to cast. Some people do not want QM(Quicken Mind) on their raids. If this is the case they will normally say so in the chat box inside the raid. If they list magic spells they want and you don't have one of them don't cast anything as it really pisses people off.
4. Raids - Do not summon your own raids until you have read the section in the newbie guide about raid catcher. You will need to submit your raids to this and if you summon them before you learn of raid catcher then you may have to wait up to 72 hours before you can add raids to the database and get raids from it.
I have listed on this site the amount of damage you should do to raids. Until you know any better you should aim for the 2e/9t damage listed in the tables you can find linked on the right. And again, be sure to consult the guide to know which raids you should hit right away. This is critical to your early success.
5. Guilds - You need to get into a guild and a decent one at that right away. If you as in the world chat for a guild explain that you are new and looking for a guild. People will post invitations to join. Different guilds have different requirements so it is best to just state your level and how active you are or plan to be and let people invite you since they will only invite if you meet their requirements. As soon as you have a guild you will want to hit Salome and Rhalmarius right away if they are available. Only hit Rhalmarius for 1 honor as the damage you do does not affect you get from him. This is the only raid that works this way in the entire game.
If you have any questions that my basic guidelines or the Guide below does not answer please ask them on this page and I will direct you to the answer.
