Starting magician needs help!

[lucient]

I am starting ryzom on the free trial, however I have been so frustrated with it that I cannot really play, I want to because the game is incredibly orignal and it has INCREDIBLE art design, but wow, anyway if anyone could give me some pointers to ease my pain I would be forever gratefull.

1. Started with 1 magic 1 craft and 1 forage. I have been trying to get my magic levels up so I can fight things that drop mats I can use to level my crafting, but I am level 8 magic and anything beyond a suckling yubo is extremely risky at best. I know I need better gear, but I can't level high enough to make money, and I can't craft my own gear but thats pretty much problem 2.

2. I can't find materials to make gear, I want to make a decent magic amp because someone told me that it would help, and I would love to make myself some light caster armor, however I can't seem to find the mats I need anywhere, prospecting is such a crapshoot that I'll spend an hour or two looking for fiber for example and I just come up with tons of other mats that I don't need.

Any help would be SO appreciated, I really want to play this game but I just can't right now.

with the starter pack you've chosen you should be able to dig for the mats you'll need to craft your own stuff, the finding is the really hard part here

as for lvling your magic try lvling you fight first for some hit points that will make things a bit easier. A trick you can use to lvl magic is to fear the mobs and nuke them as they run away, nukers work best if there's a fair bit of distance between them and whatever it is they're fighting
you can also try teaming with a healer to level you combat, the stables are usually the best place to find pople to team with.

If need be I can set you up with a free amp with semi decent stats, just send me a tell in game or better a mail

lucient, if you think you got the hang of the interface, come to the mainland, regardless of your level. There'll be more of us available to help, especially with showing you where the mats are ^^

Oh this is assuming you're still on starting Isle. If you are not, and you is Fyros, I can show you where most mats around Pyr are, or if you can't find me, find an Ouro Noct person and smeck em upside da hed and ask fer help and tell em Fyrx sed so.

Man, I am on p.s mode.

You mean there are any nice ones?
Why didnt you tell me that earlier??

[sx4rlet]

Btw to get good mats for amps, you need good materials.
Dead animals drop fine or basic mats, and the least you need for good amps are choice materials, which you only can get with digging (or killing named mobs)

[vinnyq]

might help if you tell us where you are playing at, which civ etc.

Or you can just hunt down sxarlet for fibers and bone shafts.
