They tell you to walk around using the ← ↑ → ↓ keys but the WASD keys are way easier.
You can't die in the tutorial.
When in combat areas, stay on the sidewalk and stay close to the buildings to avoid a million fights.
Tutorial:
The tutorial is pretty basic, just do whatever you're told to do and rush through it but pay attention some.
Level 1: When you leave the tutorial, you'll arrive in the Headmaster's
office. Talk to Ambrose the Headmaster and he'll give you your first
quest. When you walk outside Gamma the owl will tell you about the
compass. Find your way to Unicorn Way and talk to the guard standing
outside of it. He'll let you in, then talk to the guard a couple yards
from the entrance. (To turn off the compass press 'N').
Congratulations! You're level 2!
Level 2: Walk farther away from the gates and you'll start to see Lost
Souls, kill three of them and go back to the second guard you talked
to. Take his next quest, but don't do it yet. Go back to the
headmaster's house and talk to the Headmaster. Take the quest and go to
Ravenwood, when you get here; talk to all of the teachers. When it says
"New Goal: Talk to Merle Ambrose", go back and talk to the headmaster.
You'll recieve a Death Trap card and a Training point, + whatever XP he
awards. Now go to Halston Balestrom (the thunder teacher) and Train the
card "Thunder Snake". This card will be added to your deck. Time to
finish that quest from the guard now; head back to unicorn way and had
farther back, on your way to the Lost Souls you'll notice that there
are two people with "!"s above their heads, talk to them and take there
quests but dont' do them just yet, we're talking to the guard first. Go
just past the skeletal pirates and at the beginning of the dark fairies
until you see a door with a blue-ish colored window. Go in this house
and talk to the guard. Now walk outside and kill three Skeletal
Pirates, and two Dark Fairies. Then talk to him again. Note: Your
dark fairie might be weaker then your thunder snake, but she has an
80% chance of success while the snake only has a 70% chance. You're now level 3.
Level 3: Go back to the first part of Unicorn Way (without the monsters) and
talk to the three people with question marks above their heads. Accept
any new quests they give you. Now you should have some cool clothes in
your backpack. The best clothes you'll probably have right now is from
those quests. Go to your backpack and equip the following: Martyr's
Hat, Vestement of The Adverse, and Flawed Opal Band. These will bring
your stats to +4% Death Defense which is pretty good for now. The
flawed opal band alos adds 10 to your max health. Take the tunnel to
The Commons and find your way to the Library; go in, turn left, and
talk to Borris Tallstaff, then go to the Headmaster. Head back to
Unicorn way and go towards the far back guards house again, but that's
not where you're going. Before you get there you should see a different
house with a blue-ish window, go in it and talk to Dorothy Gale, by the
way... the name of this quest is "Yellow Brick Road". (if you think
that sounds like it's from the Wizard of Oz then just wait). After you
talk to her, she gives you a quest titled "Not in Kansas Anymore". Head
closer to the beginning of Unicorn way to find her friends (it's really
close to her house though). When you find another house with a blue-ish
window, walk inside and talk to, here it comes... *fanfares go off
while I say it* The Tinman and Mr. Toto. Had enough Wizard of Oz spoofs
yet? TO BAD! Your prize is a pair of ruby slippers. I know you don't
want to, but equip them, they help alot. Don't worry though, you're
about to get some better footwear. You are now level 4.
Level 4:
You were just awarded another training point. You will get one of these
every four levels from this point on. Don't use this yet though. Now
it's time to head to the VERY back of Unicorn way and enter the Hedge
Maze. When you enter, talk to the unmistakable giant floating angel
right in the open. She just gave you a treasure card but you'll learn
about that later. Head outside and kill three Dark Fairies, then talk
to her again. You just got new boots! Rip off those old Ruby Slippers
and equip your brand new, top of the line FootWraps of Calamity!!! They
may not match your outfit but that doesn't matter. When you're a noob
you don't need to match. Note: Don't trash ANY items, you can sell them
later on. Now head outside and all over the sidewalks you'll notice big
lantern things. Open up four of these and talk to Lady Oriel again. She
just gave you a new card called "Pixie" it is VERY EXTREMLEY HELPFUL.
It is 100% chance of success and it heals 400 health. You got to be
careful though because you can only put three of them in yoru deck.
Right now your deck should consist of the following:
Pixie
Pixie
Pixie
Dark Sprite
Dark Sprite
Dark Sprite
Death Trap
Death Trap
Death Trap
Thunder Snake
Thunder Snake
Thunder Snake
"Blank"
"Blank"
If you are missing cards then look over the guide and see what you
didn't do. Now go back to the beginning of Unicorn Way to talk to the
guy with the green robes. Now you have to kill RattleBones (the first
boss). He's not that hard but I still suggest completley filling your
health and mana. If you don't know how to do this yet, you get health
by picking up the red dots that fly around (known as health whisps) and
get mana by picking up the blue dots that fly around (known as mana
whisps) or play minigames to get mana. When you get to RattleBones,
you'll actually have to kill him AND the dark fairy that helps him to
finish the quest goal. Superstitious Tip: Whenever you're about to kill a boss, run around it's tower first! Go
back and talk to Ceren Nightchant again (the guy in green robes). After
talking to him, you'll have to talk to the Headmaster again. He gives
you a potion that is located right of your health and mana, you can
only use it once but it completley fills your health and mana. You can
refill it by playing minigames. Congratulations, you're level 5.
Level 5: Now you can equip you "Slippers of Rites" that you got from killing
Rattlebones. These add +8 to your max health. Go to shopping district
and then Olde Town, find the guard with the question mark above his
head, he asks you to kill Lady Blackhope (the second boss). Also talk
to the guard next to him who asks you to talk to the librarian. Before
we do these quests, head to Raven Wood and talk to both of your
teachers and get you two new cards. Now you got some pretty good cards
now. You have two options for cards now, I suggest this one:
Option 1: Head to the Shopping district and go in the deck shop. Sell all of
the equipment you are not wearing and sell your starter deck (don't
worry, you won't lose any cards). Now buy a pinewood deck. Make sure to
equip the Pinewood deck after buying. Now make your deck cards in this
order:
Pixie
Pixie
Pixie
Dark Sprite
Dark Sprite
Death Trap
Death Trap
Death Trap
Ghoul
Ghoul
Ghoul
Lightning Bats
Lightning Bats
Lightning Bats
Thunder Snake
Thunder Snake
Option 2: Sell all of your equipment that you are not wearing but KEEP THE STARTER DECK. Then make your cards in this order:
Pixie
Pixie
Pixie
Dark Sprite
Death Trap
Death Trap
Death Trap
Ghoul
Ghoul
Ghoul
Lightning Bats
Lightning Bats
Lightning Bats
Thunder Snake
Now that your cards are set up, make sure
your health and mana are full and go to Unicorn Way to kill Lady
Blackhope. Along with her you'll also have to kill a skeletal pirate. Note: If you have Martyr Wraps then put them on in place of your Slippers of Rites. Don't
equip any clothes you get from her, they're not good. We'll finish this
quest in a minute, now go talk to the librarian. Now go to the
Fairegrounds, there is a wooden stand that has a girl on it, talk to
her. Now go into Golem Court and talk to the guy with the big red hat.
He gives you another quest but save that one for level 9. Now go back
to Olde Town and talk to the guard with the question mark above his
head. Super Important Note: This guard has a couple quests for you but don't take them!!! Only take the one called "Triton Avenue". Now
head to Triton Avenue and go past all of the monsters and talk to the
girl in purple clothes. Now head towards the Haunted Cave but on your
way talk to the guy at the top of the teleporter and take his quest.
After going in the Haunted Cave, walk out and kill three of the Scarlet
Screamers (female ghosts). Then go back to the safe part of Triton and
turn in the two quests. Go to the floor below Susie and talk to Duncan
Grimwater. You are now level 6.
Level 6: Before you continue questing, go to Unicorn Way and talk to the
horse standing outside the Arena and then enter the Arena, do whatever
he says to do. Now kill five Rotting Fodders and five Haunted Minions
now, then talk to Duncan again.
