AOL and individual protection scrolls follow different rules.

How to get attributed equipment

Eligible equipment can receive random extra attributes when it drops from a monster. The roll depends on the monster’s experience and the item’s configured loot chance. There is no single drop percentage shared by every item.

Not every piece can receive five attributes: its own limit and effect pool determine what can roll. Rings, amulets and stackable items do not receive new attributes. Two copies of the same equipment can have different bonuses.

Bonuses belong to the individual item and stay with it when you trade or sell it through a player shop. Inspect its Look before buying. Equipment carried in a bag does not grant equipped bonuses.

Border colors

The border shows the number of attributes, not their strength. A gold border does not guarantee that every roll is better than a green one.

1 attributeWhite
2 attributesGreen
3 attributesBlue
4 attributesPurple
5 attributesGold

Borders appear on item icons in the interface. Normal equipment has no attribute border. These are illustrative previews.

Understanding the numbers

  • Flat bonuses: Armor +2 or Distance Fighting +3 adds to the corresponding stat.
  • Percentages: protection and damage effects change the matching damage by a percentage; they are not flat armor points.
  • Effect versus chance: a leech value is the share of damage recovered. Its activation chance, when shown, is a separate roll.
  • Regeneration: read both amount and interval. A shorter interval restores the same amount more often.

For example, 10% Life Leech with a 20% activation chance restores 10 health from a successful 100-damage hit only when it triggers. It does not guarantee healing on every hit. This example is illustrative, not a promised roll for a specific item.

Attribute effects

These families cover the effects in the current equipment drop pools. Each piece has its own selection; not every effect can appear on every item.

Family & attributesWhat they do
Base statsArmor, Attack, Defense, Speed, WeightImprove armor, weapon attack, defense or movement speed. Negative Weight makes the item lighter.
SkillsSword Fighting, Axe Fighting, Club Fighting, Distance Fighting, Shielding, Magic LevelIncrease the corresponding skill while equipped. Magic Level applies only to mages, including promotions.
Attack speed & accuracyAttack Interval, Hit ChanceNegative Attack Interval reduces the time between attacks. Hit Chance improves the accuracy of the equipped distance weapon.
Health & manaMax Health, Max ManaIncrease maximum health or mana, adjusted for vocation as shown below.
RegenerationHealth Regen, Mana RegenRestore the listed amount at the interval shown in Look. Each equipped piece has its own timer.
HealingHealing, Mana HealingHealing improves health restored by combat healing. Mana Healing improves mana fluid recovery, not leech or mana transfers.
ProtectionProtection Physical, Protection Fire, Protection Energy, Protection Poison, Protection Elements, Protection Mana DrainReduce the matching damage type. Elements covers fire, energy and poison; Mana Drain reduces mana drained by attacks.
LeechLife Leech, Mana LeechRecover a percentage of actual damage dealt as health or mana when the effect activates. Weapon and spell damage can trigger leech.
CriticalsCritical Hit, Critical SpellDeal extra damage when the activation roll succeeds. Critical Hit applies to physical weapon attacks; Critical Spell applies to spell damage.
Defense bypassCrushing Blow, PerfurationCrushing Blow has a chance to bypass defense and shielding. Perfuration has a chance to bypass armor.
Extra attackDouble BashHas a chance to add a second weapon hit at 50% damage.
Damage over timeBurning, Poison, ElectrifyWeapon hits can apply fire, poison or energy damage over time, subject to immunity. The current effects tick five times, every two seconds.
Avoidance & mitigationDodge, Arrow Guard, MitigationDodge has a chance to avoid damage from an attacker. Arrow Guard reduces ranged physical damage. Mitigation reduces incoming damage when its activation roll succeeds.
AbsorptionAbsorb Health, Absorb ManaAbsorb Health restores health from physical damage taken. Absorb Mana restores mana from fire, energy or poison damage taken. Absorption occurs after damage and does not prevent a lethal hit.
ReflectionReflect Physical, Reflect Fire, Reflect Energy, Reflect ElementsReturn a share of actual damage to its attacker. Elements covers fire, energy and poison. The returned damage still respects the attacker’s defenses.
Temporary boostBerserkCan boost melee skills and movement speed for eight seconds. Repeated activations refresh the effect rather than stacking it.
UtilityMomentum, VibrancyMomentum has a chance to shorten attack or healing exhaustion by one second. Vibrancy helps resist paralysis from monsters.

Health and mana by vocation

The bonuses from your equipped set are added first, then adjusted for vocation. Fractional results are rounded down. Promotions use their base vocation’s adjustment.

VocationMax Health bonusMax Mana bonus
Knight / Elite KnightFull amountOne sixth
Paladin / Royal PaladinTwo thirdsHalf
Sorcerer / Druid and promotionsOne thirdFull amount

Example: a total +90 Max Health grants +90 to a Knight, +60 to a Paladin or +30 to a mage. Magic Level bonuses apply only to mages. Some combined effects have caps, so additional pieces may not keep increasing them indefinitely.

Death and attribute loss

In a normal death without an AOL equipped in the neck slot, all extra attributes on your equipped items are removed. Base items remain subject to the usual drop rules.

  • An AOL equipped in the neck protects attributes in a normal death and is consumed as usual. An AOL carried in a bag does not protect you.
  • Ordinary blessings do not prevent attribute loss.
  • Items in bags, depot or player shops are not stripped by this equipped-item rule. Bags and their contents can still be lost under normal death rules.
  • Red skull ignores AOL and individual scroll protection.
  • Designated arena deaths and deaths without loot loss preserve the no-loss exception.

Protection scrolls

Use a scroll on an eligible attributed equipment piece you own. It must match the exact number of attributes; a larger scroll cannot replace a smaller one. A valid application consumes the scroll and protects that single item and its attributes.

ScrollAttributesPrice
Green protection scroll12,000 gp
Blue protection scroll25,000 gp
Purple protection scroll310,000 gp
Orange protection scroll415,000 gp
Red protection scroll525,000 gp

Scroll colors differ from border colors: one attribute has a white border and uses a green scroll.

Available from blank rune merchants: Alexander, Asima, Fenech, Frans, Rachel, Shiriel, Sigurd, Tandros, Topsy and Xodet.

  • Duration: 15 hours of monster-XP hunting while equipped, or until the first death, whichever comes first. Offline, idle and bag time do not consume it; quest and PvP XP do not consume it.
  • First normal death: the piece and its attributes are kept, then the mark is removed. This also consumes protection when an AOL is equipped.
  • Inside a bag: an already protected piece stays protected at death, but its bag and other contents do not gain protection.
  • Red skull: protection is ignored and the mark is removed. No-loss arena exceptions do not consume it.
  • No stacking: protection cannot be recharged while active. Invalid targets or an incorrect scroll are rejected without consumption.

Use Look to check the remaining protection time. When it expires or is consumed, the usual death rules apply again.

Features

Cams

Stream your own hunt, watch other players live and replay your own sessions offline.

Stream!cam on

Opens your public cam while you are online.

Watch!camwatch Name

Follow another player live, anywhere in the world.

Reward+5% XP

Monster experience while your own cam is on.

Commands

CommandWhat it does
!cam onOpens your own cam. Anyone can watch it until you close it, log out or lose the connection.
!cam offCloses your cam. Spectators return to their own characters.
!cam listLists open cams with the character name, level and vocation.
!camwatch NameWatches that player live. The cam must be open.
!camwatch offStops watching and returns you to your own character. The Stop button in the client does the same.

Every login starts with your cam closed. Type !cam on again after relogging.

Rules for spectators

  • You can watch from anywhere, including outside a protection zone and during combat.
  • Your character stays in the world while you watch. It does not move, but it can be attacked and can die. Watch only where it is safe.
  • Watching cancels any walking, following or attacking you had started. While you watch, you cannot move or act with your own character.
  • You cannot watch yourself, and you cannot open your own cam while watching someone else.
  • If the streamer logs out, you are returned to your own character within a couple of seconds.
  • If your own character dies while you are watching, the cam ends.

+5% experience for streamers

While your own cam is on, you earn 5% more experience from monsters. You do not need spectators.

  • The bonus is personal. In a party, only the members who have their cam on receive it.
  • It is added after the server rates, stamina and party bonus. A kill worth 1000 experience gives 1050.
  • It does not apply to PvP, quest rewards or experience given by commands, and not when your stamina is depleted.
  • Turning the cam off, watching someone else or relogging removes the bonus immediately.
  • Your automatic personal recording does not give the bonus.

What spectators see and do not see

The public cam shows the map, creatures, movement, effects, the streamer's inventory and open containers, skills and stats, the hunt analyzers and local speech (say, whisper and yell).

It never shows private messages, channels, the VIP list, trade windows, the Store, house texts, quests, the bestiary or anything administrative.

Recordings

Independent of the public cam, the client automatically records every session you play, from login to logout, in a cams folder next to the game executable. Each relogin creates a new file.

  • Open the Recordings screen at the top of the client, even before logging in, to pick one of your files and press Play. Replays run offline and do not connect to the server.
  • Recordings contain what your client received, including private messages sent to you. Do not share a file if you do not want others to read them. Your password and anything the client sent to the server are never recorded.
  • If the game crashes, everything saved up to about the last second is usually recovered. If the folder is not writable, the game still works, but nothing is recorded.
  • You must be logged out to replay a file.

Features

Bedmaker

Druids and Sorcerers can sleep in a bed and wake up with runes made from their blank runes.

WhoDruid / Sorcerer

Promoted or not, with the rune's spell already learned.

NeedsBed, blanks, food

A free bed in a house, blank runes in your bags and sleep food.

PaceSlow on purpose

About the natural mana of a night in bed, not a rune factory.

How it works

  1. Carry blank runes in any backpack of your character. The depot does not count.
  2. Use a free bed in a house. A window lists the runes you can make, how many blank runes you carry, how many runes you will get and for how long.
  3. Choose a rune and confirm. Your character goes to sleep and logs out.
  4. Log in again. The mana you regenerated while sleeping is converted into runes. Each blank rune becomes the chosen rune in the same backpack. Mana left over returns to you.

Production is calculated when you log back in, or when the house owner wakes you up. The runes come already charged and ready to use.

Sleep food

Your sleep is limited by the food you have stored, counted in hours. Without food you sleep normally and make nothing.

ItemAddsStore price
Sandwich10 hours7 coins
Steak with Leaves20 hours12 coins
  • Buy them in the Store (Utilities). They are normal stackable items and can be traded, so you can buy them on one character and give them to your makers.
  • Use the item to store its hours. Only Druids and Sorcerers can eat it.
  • You can store at most 20 hours. If an item would go over the limit, it is not consumed.
  • Only the time you actually sleep uses up your food.

Limits

  • One active maker per account. A second character of the same account cannot start while another one is sleeping as a maker.
  • You can only choose runes you are allowed to cast by hand: the spell must be learned and your vocation, magic level, level and premium status must meet its requirements.
  • You need blank runes. Without them the bed refuses the choice.
  • Soul points are not used.
  • Production is slow on purpose: sleeping regenerates 120 mana per hour, much less than normal regeneration while awake. The number of runes depends on the mana cost of the rune you pick.
  • If the house owner (or someone with higher house access) uses your bed, you are woken up and the runes are made when you log in again.

SlotItemARMDEFATKWeight

How it works

  • Armor is added from helmet, amulet, armor, legs, boots and ring. Reduction is a flat amount of physical damage, not a percentage.
  • Fight mode changes attack and defense with the same integer rounding used by the server.
  • The server uses the shield's defense and Shielding skill when the shield's defense is at least the weapon's; otherwise it uses the weapon's defense and Attack skill.
  • After two seconds without an attack target, passive defense uses the defensive multiplier. Both blocking values are shown below.
  • Damage is raw physical damage before the target's armor, blocking, resistances and PvP rules. Random attributes, enchantments, temporary skill bonuses and spells are excluded.
  • Weight counts one of each selected item, including one projectile and an empty backpack. Blocking applies to eligible attacks and is subject to the game's block limits.

Skill training

Estimated continuous training from 0% progress in the current skill, using this server's base attack speed and skill rate. Pauses, misses and attacks that grant no skill progress increase the actual time. Temporary bonuses are excluded.

How it works

  • Food regeneration only works while your character is fed. Without food, it stops.
  • Promotion improves regeneration: knights recover more health, while paladins and mages recover more mana.
  • Characters without a vocation (None) recover health only.
  • These are base regeneration totals, excluding spells, potions and item bonuses. Recovery stops at maximum health or mana.
