NOTE: Due to the recent changes with the server, some of these areas in the guide may be *OUT-OF-DATE* but you can still use this guide to get around. Newer things to get items have been added to the server such as trading an item for another and so on.

*INTRODUCTION PART OF THE GUIDE*

Before we get started with this guide I need to get this out of the way. Please make sure you delete your cache folder before you get on the server. After deleting your cache folder, please delete all custom patches you have in your data folder. The only patches you should have are these: common.mpq, common-2.mpq, expansion.mpq, lichking.mpq, patch.mpq, patch-2.mpq, and patch-3.mpq. Last thing to do is to change your realmlist to (without the quotation marks) "set realmlist blast-wow.sytes.net" and make sure you download the following patches and put them into your data folder: Patch-4.mpq, Patch-Z.mpq, and Patch-H.mpq. Now on with the guide!

Hello all! This guide is to help new players max out their buffs, weapons and gear. The guide will show where everything is located at and how to get there. Oh, and don't worry, the guide will show how much each currency you need for every quest you need to complete!

1. How do I start on the server?

Once you have created your character and logged in, you will want to type in .learn all my talents. After doing that, please complete the starter quest to get your first pet which is a teleporter, starter bags and book of tutorials and rules. Buy your starter gear, glyphs and train.

2. How do I find currency for my offset and buff quests?

If you would summon your teleporter or talk to one, you can find a place called 'Custom Zones'. That is where you go to farm for your currency. I highly suggest getting offset before your main set, but you can do which one you want first. Keep in mind that these currency is looted off of game objects and not by killing any mobs.

3. Where do I get gear?

Just like I explained in #2, just talk to a teleporter and you'll find 'Custom Instances'. That is where you go to grind for tokens to turn in for your gear. You will notice at Tier 3 you'll need 'Sacred Coins'. I'll explain that in #4.

4. How do I get Sacred Coins?

Yet again, we're going to use our teleporter. There is something called 'Custom Bosses'. Yes, there are two bosses that can be killed for Sacred Coins. Don't quote me on this, but I believe the bosses have a 15 minute to 30 minute respawn timer. Yshienia #1 is the place for lower geared players should go unless you're in a group with some highly geared players, then go to Moglada #2. Both places have two quests you can do. The mobs are Yshienia will drop less Sacred Coin Fragments than the mobs at Moglada. We'll talk about Sacred Fragments in #5.

5. What are Sacred Coin Fragments?

As I explained in #4 that both custom boss areas have two quests. They are the same quest at both places. Sacred Coin, the quest name, requires 10 Sacred Coin Fragments in return for 3 Sacred Coins. SacredCoin x30, quest name, requires 90 Sacred Coin Fragments in return of 30 Sacred Coins.

6. My weapon says I need Artifact Power. How do I obtain that?

I'm glad you asked! All of the instances will give Artifact Power. Some give very little and some give a lot. As of right now, the best places to farm for Artifact Power would be Zul'Farrak (Tier 15) and Zul'Gurub (Raid 1). It's still possible to obtain Artifact Power in any instance though. Don't get mad because you're not getting any. Artifact Power is meant to be a grind and not easily obtained.

7. Where do I get a mount?

I'm sorry to tell you, but mounts on this realm are obsolete. I'm not going to say you can't obtain them (IE: Paladins and Warlocks), but we got something better. Let's go back to our teleporter again and go visit the Non-PvP Mall. Here we can find a NPC called 'Mall Teleporter'. Simply talk to the NPC and selection the 'Paragon Leveling'. The closest you'll get to obtaining a mount would be talking to the NPC named 'Absolute Opretin'. He'll give you a buff quest called 'Normal Speed Buff'. Honestly, you can do all these buff quests, but be careful! Some require Vote Tokens and Donor Tokens.

8. How do I obtain custom buffs?

You can either donation for the buffs, vote for a normal stat buff, or complete the non-donor and non-voter buffs at the Paragon Leveling area.

9. Why doesn't the vote links take me to the voting sites?

When you go to the vote tab, please refresh the page then try to vote. If that doesn't work, then try disabling your ad blocker or delete your browser cache and cookies.

10.When I go to the store on the website, it won't let me buy anything. Why is that?

Just like the voting page, you'll have to refresh the page. Also, please make sure you have the right amount of donor or vote points before you attempt to buy something on the store.

11. How much does it cost to become a VIP?

VIP will cost a total of $35. Any kind of support will help the server improve as a whole!

(I am really sorry if I messed something in this introduction guide. You all have to bear with me. This guide was a tad bit rushed out due to college being hectic. When I get the time, I'll add stuff to the rest of the guide. Yes, I know I didn't include the ring that is bought on the web store and the vip trinket in the guide and I won't include them. No, I will not include holiday events in the guide because they're limited.)

If you run into an issue, please ask for help. If the issue isn't serve, then ask another player if they can help you before contacting a staff member! If a player can't assist you with your issue, then make a ticket. Be patient while a staff member gets to your ticket. Do *NOT* spam world chat with "GM HELP!" or"GM READ TICKET!". That will only delay your help longer. If a staff member doesn't contact you right away, then *WE* are busy. We're trying to make this server enjoyable for everybody. We would love to hear your feedback!

*WEAPON PART OF THE GUIDE*

Two-Hand Weapon / Staff Leveling Requirements

Just for one item
Aritfact Power: 223,505,000
Powerful Mojo: 20


One-Hand Weapon / Relic / Shield / Wand Leveling Requirements

Just for one item
Aritfact Power: 150,670,000
Powerful Mojo: 20


So if you want to know how much it is total for two two-handed weapons plus a relic, then add the AP for two two-hand weapons together then add one-hand weapon after it.

Example: 223,505,000 + 223,505,000 + 150,670,000 = 597,680,000 AP and 20 + 20 + 20 = 60 Powerful Mojo.

NOTE: Every instance has a chance to drop Artifact Power, but only Zul'Gurub will drop Powerful Mojo.
