Newb here, the beginning of the game is a little odd in places but having fun so far. While I'm avoiding using anything until I have an idea what it's about, is there any other early game stuff to keep in mind?

Also, what does it mean if a class is on 'rotation' when you create a character? The one I picked had that over the box but I can't quite cotton to it's meaning
>>
>>2436863
>Also, what does it mean if a class is on 'rotation' when you create a character? The one I picked had that over the box but I can't quite cotton to it's meaning
The tag system lets you pick two characters who then share combat XP and (optionally) gear. The gear duping system is typically pretty expensive but its only 1 silver for a class that's on rotation.
>>
>>2436863
I'm pretty new myself but just in case you didn't find out yet, 2 basic things you should know:

If you like questing, be sure to set the slider to "Show all quests" in the questlog!
The game has thousands of quests, but they are invisible otherwise!

There are about 20 different group chats! You can change the group chat in the chat menu.
As a new player you probably also started in the "Lunar Inn" Chat, which can be pretty obnoxious sometimes...just so you know, there are alternatives.

Was thinking about rolling a tamer but that thing creeps me out
>>
>>2440802
Is a Tamer something like a hunter? Where you get a pet?
There are some charas running around with giant white foxes(?), those are cool.
I always thought those were tamers, but the foxes look nothing like that....thing....?
>>
>>2442085
tamer is a melee assassin. the pet comes from a skill you get at level 20.
the white foxes are just the idle animation for maegu class, her fake pet is super confusing to new players

what do i do with the tens of thousands of raw ore and such from my workers buidling up in my storage
>>
>>2443068
sell it or process it or crate it unprocessed
>>
>>2443068
You can either sell the ore on the marketplace, process it into ingots and sell those on the marketplace, or get workers to craft ingots into trade crates in Valencia and then sell those in LoML. Trade crates are the best long term by a small margin as long as you invest in your trading lifeskill, selling Ingots on the marketplace is next best but needs an active VP and a bit more management, then selling the ore is by far the worst.
Processing is a short-term AFK activity, and really you want the maid outfit to make it not tedious, then extra weight if you want to leave it for ages, but that last bit isn't super necessary if you do it whilst you're at your computer doing other things.
>>
>>2443068
processing mats for sale isn't worth it for you unless you're already seriously invested or on the path to becoming so
just sell it raw unless you're really going devote a significant amount of your playtime to being lifeskills autist
>>
>>2443133
Selling it raw is a waste of time navigating UI + marketplace might as well hit mobs in that time and you'll make 5x more money

This is why I only get trace nodes/royal workshop
>>
>>2443143
well it takes seconds to throw it on the market so I guess, but yeah he should probably get better nodes for it if thats the way he's going (or just ignore it all)
>>
>>2443155
It only takes seconds for each, doing it for multiple items it will keep adding up
And that is assuming you're doing it efficiently everytime you visit the marketplace for other things and you dont have a 100k+ stockpile of shit cause it will just get worse and worse the more you get

I've only done a few hours of Orbita but I think I prefer Nymphamaré. One of the features of Aetherion that I disliked was how many effects were almost always happening on the screen, to the point where it sometimes became quite difficult to see what was going on. That's not the case in Nymphamaré, but now Orbita is quite busy again.
Anyway, post 'em.

You can do whatever you want cutie

Anything after Mediah is more or less optional, which then you can get future season characters to take a powerleveling route instead for most of the same rewards.

do i need to buy the calling horn from pearl shop before i upgrade it to celestial
>>
>>2451693
At one point getting through a bunch of them would grant quest-specific accessories that could give season characters a power boost and some other armor, but now they can equip any Tuvala gear. Mind that some of the crystals you get from the questlines can be combined into a super crystal that is still relevant today, so there is some incentive but at some point you'll probably make a lot of money an hour from grindan anyway or get enough excess season seals to make them.

Questlines do have some practical use in obtaining knowledge to increase max energy, or getting to know the lay of the land somewhat. While the Magnus rewards barely need any progress into the questline now, a permanent +1 AP/DP and two crystal slots you can't anywhere else are rewards from the first half of Land of the Morning Light (before Seoul). Otherwise, not a formal 'questline' but the Bartali Log has a lot of permanent AP/DP rewards and more from doing assorted tasks.

>>2451705
No, Celestial Horns can be used as-is. There's a Celestial upgrade item for people with the original horn can grind for.
>>
>>2451922
so i should buy regular horn and do the quest to upgrade it?
>>
>>2451941
Personally I haven't done that, it relies on repeating a daily quest that would take you a month if below Artisan 1 Training, half a month otherwise, and all the ingredients to keep doing it. The calling horn is nice but you're best finding it as part of a bundle or through an event.

I do not understand PA's mindset with respect to Girin, Bongwang, and Haetae's Tear, and now the same has happened to Reforge Stones. They were nigh unobtainable when first introduced, now you can get lots of them from just casually playing so on the marketplace all the items are minlisted with no reason for anyone to buy any, since there's no alternate use! Not even heating for Magical Shards or grinding for Black Stone Powder!

hash is an honest and balanced class at this point and PA needs to make more of these gapless SA iframe throw-skills-until-enemy-fall-over classes who sometimes even have grabs more like him. i pray i get a hash on the other team instead of my own because i know we can punish his mistakes and bad plays and that he can't casually shrug off any attempt at peeling while doing a full combo when one of my teammates or i get put on the ground. there are way too many classes that are just not interactive at all and hash is not one of them

This game has the most impenetrable pvp I've ever seen, you have to have exhaustive knowledge of every single class' movesets just to not get raped in 12 seconds along with somehow understanding how to walk the dinosaur on your own class (esoteric knowledge), and that's at absolute trench tier the absolute floor of participation.
>>
>>2455413
It may seem that way but knowing other classes movesets is very high tier knowledge
All you need to do learn is how to do protected movement and protected combos to get started, what I did was just use those at lower grindspots even though they suck for damage it helps build muscle memory and performing them seamlessly
>>
>>2455413
you really don't, just be protected when people are attacking you and hit them back when your protection runs out. if they are still not cc'd then move away and you get to do it all again
>>
>>2455413
Learning to be decently competent at bdo pvp requires a shit ton of reading and research and watching others play the game to get an idea of how you should play. Actually going to battle arena and practicing and getting used to things like desync and ping and class diffs fast tracks you to being better but most people refuse

I could hardly find anything in google.
A reddit comment mentioned there being 4 and you have to complete them in the right order and that unlocks a quest?

I've found 3 so far, but there is no black mist to interact with at the end (but there is an invisible object block), so I must be missing the first?
