|
Frequently Asked Questions How do I get rid of the poison and infections? You have to pray, either via a prayer wheel, or in one of the Temples. Where is Grunden's Winecellar? Actually, Grunden's Winecellar is a mission labyrinth. Approximate directions to the entrance are shown in the text on your screen each time you move. I am not able to keep on playing, I always get back to the inventory page. What to do? You are overloaded. You must drop sufficient items to bring your current load below your carrying capacity. Why does my weapon make less damage than I expect? You are not experienced enough, or have insufficient skill to use the weapon properly. Your Experience Level and Wespon Skill Level must both be equal to or greater than the level of the weapon. Why do I get less protection points from my armour? You are not experienced enough to use the armour properly. Your Experience Level must be equal to or greater than the level of the armour. What does the scatter of a weapon mean? For example, a weapon with 100 max. damage and 20 scatter will inflict between 80 and 100 damage. How do I know what some items (like the net, Imp's mushroom, miracle satchel, etc.) are good for? You can look up any item in the Special Items list. Why do my items keep disappearing? Your gadgets (like the shovel, the miracle satchel, the manasatchel or the prayer wheel) won't last forever. They might break or wear off, you just can’t help, you have to buy a new one! You will be notified though, if it happens. Which position is restored if I die and have an insurance? You will lose the insurance and you will have 30 Hitpoints. Your Manapoints won't change and you won't lose any of your items you had - only some money. Why won't my sense-ball work? Why do I lose one Manapoint before fights? It costs one Manapoint to use your sense-ball. Why is the daily number of clicks limited? There are several arguments, why daily clicks are limited. If they were not, those who could play more would lead the game instead of those who would play smarter. Also, players would get bored of unlimited playing and game servers might get overloaded. Consider clicks as the measure of elapsed time in the game - that gives it a more real-time feeling as you are one of those who write Larkinor's history. Why did my enemy hit me twice within a single fighting round? If the Quickness attribute of an opponent (you or your enemy) is at least three times higher than that of the other, it may hit twice within a round. The Luck attribute has also a little contribution to this feature. Why is there no map? There is. You can buy it in the General Stores, just select it from the drop-down list. Why pay to the King? Doing so you will be listed as a citizen in the town's records and you will be allowed to leave the island (if you buy a boat, for instance). Also, the King will reward you with an antiballast. My recipe won't work! What's wrong with it? Magical items can be made only in the Mage Tower, normal ones in the Fortress. Why can't I sell my items on the market? You can't sell items under their minimum price (=half of their retail price) or above their maximum price (=25x their retail price). If your price setting meets these criteria, you still won't be able to sell it, if many others are offering the same item cheaper, so you wouldn't have any chance to sell it. My items on the market are gone and I haven’t got money for them. What happened? If the market is flooded with cheap items and the salesman finds your goods are too expensive ever to be sold, they will transport them back into your house. Look for them at home! Next time, try to sell them at a lower price. What is the upper limit of skills that can be bought in the fortress? You can buy the next skill level unless your current level is above Dexterity * 1.2. You can’t buy higher skill levels than your Experience Level anyway. What is the advantage of having more Strength? The value of Strength / 2 will always be added to the damage you made. If your Strength value is too low, your weapon will make less damage. Also, your weapon can vampirise more Hitpoints back to you, if you are stronger. When does my weapon skill cause extra damage? If a specific weapon skill of yours is over your Experience Level, you will get an extra damage point for every level over your Experience Level (e.g. at an Experience Level of 35 a weapon level of 40 will give you 5 extra damage points). Why do much weaker/stronger monsters attack my character? Which monsters will attack you depends on many factors: agressivity of the monster, your maximum Hitpoints value, the monster's maximum Hitpoints and damage points and last but not least on your rank setting. I've got the message: "There are too many items in your backpack! Something might fall out!" What does it mean? Your backpack doesn't have an infinite capacity. If you stuff too many things into it, some of them might fall out. Throw away some useless items or sell them as soon as you can! What limits the magic skill? Your IQ is an upper limit for your magic skill. Also, your Experince Level will limit it (it's very hard to reach a higher magic skill level than your Experience Level). How fast your magic skill improves depends on how often you cast spells. How many characters am I allowed? Currently you are allowed to create 4 characters with each account. How do I delete a character? You must first pay the king 1 million coins (+taxes) and then go to the Palace. Go to the Houses section and an additional button will be there. Click the button 3 times and your character will leave the island forever. My character is banned, what do I do now? If you find one of your characters is banned, enter the chat room (via the chat link) and speak to one of the Moderators (they have orange text and a special symbol by their name). If you cannot find a moderator, or are unable to enter chat, email with the details. My account is banned, who do I speak to about this?

If you are a , you can upload an image to your login account, just select Settings on the login form. Then go to the Inventory & Properties page of your character and push the small button in the upper right corner of your character's image. How do I get the Defense Merit of Larkinor? You will get it, if you eliminate at least 100 monsters of the enemy army during the conquest. What to do with a caught monster? You can release them on the new island on areas that match the monster's living requirements and haven't yet been populated by that monster type. You will gain more monstalogy points, if you are the first to release a monster on an area, or you release the last (12th) specimen of the same kind to populate the area. How much Experience Points you will gain by releasing the monster depends on the monsalogy point gain. How do I build the buildings? You will have to make building stones. The three components of a building stone can be obtained by
