Tales of Pirates - Overview

Overview

Once an account is created, players are able to log in to a server and choose a character to begin the game. All characters start at level 1 and initially level up through very simple introductory quests designed to teach the player about the game. These quests take a few minutes to complete and will give a new player an idea of how to move, control their character and other simple concepts. At level 8 a character can make a party to invite 1-4 players and they all share EXP from individual kills. At level 9 a character can choose a specific first class related to the character they chose, they cannot however use class specific equipment until level 10. At level 10 you can first start talking in world chat with a variety of other players with a fee every time you do. A "Lance" character can become an Explorer, Hunter or Swordsman. A "Carsise" character can become a Swordsman. A "Phyllis" character can become a Hunter, Herbalist, Swordsman or Explorer (or Crusader in newest 2.0 version). An "Ami" character can become an Herbalist or Explorer.

Starting at level 15, a player may purchase a ship with which they may sail on the water. Certain elements of the game can only be accessed in this way (60% of accessible territory on water).
