f1 c2 s1 Okay so you've gained a level...so now what are you gonna do? Well let me tell you! First, this will be the only time you're gonna see this message so you might want to read it. c9IN THIS UNREGISTERED VERSION OF BATTLE LANDS YOU WILL ONLY RECEIVE THIS ONE SET OF HINTS. IN THE REGISTERED VERSION THERE ARE HINTS GIVEN AT EVERY CAEVENC9 LEVEL UP TO 20 AND AT EVER CAODDC9 LEVEL YOU GET 5 BONUS POINTS TO ADD INTO YOUR STATS. HOWEVER, THAT'S NOT IN THIS VERSION SO JUST READ THE HINTS BELOW TO HELP YOU OUT IN THIS RPG... ce 1. The best skill for early levels is Salesman. If you have a 50% or better in the class then you will get half off of everything. If you have a whopping 100% then you will get everything for a quarter of it's normal price. With as much as the stuff in this game costs you will be glad of this skill. 2. At low levels a combination of better armor and poor weapon is the key to survival but the classes which fight poorly might want to try the best armor and just use spells in combat. If you run out of magic power however you will probably have to run from the fight and go to the healer. 3. Putting your money in the bank keeps you from losing it when you die BUT it is possible (with the correct skills) to access the Bank Network Link and learn the account numbers of other players. This takes quite some skill but it can be done. 4. Camping outdoors keeps people from calling you into the arena but a thief may rob you blind if you camp outside. 5. GO TO SCHOOL. I know everyone wants big weapons and powerful armor but learning the skills at the college will allow you to access other parts of the Computer Network and through this access you can find many hidden aspects of the game like how to raise your traits, how to access the blackmarket, how to build your own weapons and armor, how to discover what all the maps, monsters & magic looks like and how to gain the secrets to complete Battle Lands. 6. Take your time. This game will last quite some time. The registered version will have 2 zones, 14 maps, 210 monsters, 9 races, hundreds of text files, hundreds of weapons, armor and items & all the neat junk that makes RPG's great. So go slow and develop your character as best you can because there is no turning back unless you start over completely.... c2 p.s.Read as much of this junk as you can if you are serious about finishing c9Battle Lands c2because in the Computer Link you will find about 300 documents all of which contain valuable information & secrets.....oh yes there are secrets...moohaha!!! cbSTU2 signing off.... s0g1
