Ryzom

Well, after downloading the client 5 times.. 4 times being curropted and a power outage for 5 hours I finally got Ryzom installed and running... and first off, I have to say that the loading messages are awesome... So ammusing

Now, heres where my problem is.. I'm having a real hard time finding mobs I can kill on the newb island.. Even those little cat things are really hard for me, and I tend to die alot... Is there any where specific I can find mobs to kill for exp, or any suggestions? Also, I've noticed for the starter quests.. There is no "quest text" per-say.. I'm used to seeing a NPC talk with a little chat bubble.. telling me what to do.. I'm not seein that here.. am I missing something?

Thanks in Advance!

The "con" system:

The background color of the little box in the target window indicates a level range.

Green = 1-30 (?)
Blue = 1-50
Yellow = 50-100
Orange = 100-150
Red = 150-200
Purple = 200-250

The number next to the star indicates a more precise range.

1* green, for example, would be level 1-10. 2* green, level 10-20. 3* green, 20-30. 3* yellow, 70-80. 2* red, 160-170.

So the animal that ate you probably was level 20-30.

One black star on a colored background is a named mob. Two black stars on a colored background is a boss.

Finally, the quality of the materials you quarter from a mob is the same as its level. For example, q5 or q8 materials from a Suckling or Inexperienced 1* green Yubo.

EDIT: Added that to my signature links...lol.

There should be.

Welcome Jacend
Why not try to team up with somebody? Most mobs your level will give you a hard time. A team will definetly be rewarding; you'll be able to hunt mobs with higher level than yourself, and what is more fun than to hunt in a good team?

Could be that you´ve accidentally disabled the "word-bubbels"
Look under Game configuration "in Scene" -> Chat massages, should be anabled

Thanks for the replies ya'll.. That con system information should make it much easier on me As for getting a team, I try to avoid teaming up my first couple days in a game.. Gives me time to learn the ropes and such on my own

As for the chat bubbles, I'll check to see if I missed with that setting

One hint that might help if you're still having trouble.

for your first few melee levels, stick to mobs whos names start with "suckling" and end with "yubo".
