CJS69 here! Actually, it’s CJS69Real, I swear to god if that userna squatter ca online I’ll do things to him so vile that they’d write into history books.
I wiped the dragon blood from my knees and picked up Hailie’s ranger cloak and boots after her body disappeared, "Thank you for the stat increase, honey."
The basic rchant class didn’t provide with any tools, it just gave starting gold, unlike other fighting classes which does.

To ntion it... [Speed] is a stat that they kept since the PC days, but they didn’t allow the players to see that particular stat on the VR version. Which bugged , a few people who playtest early access had written a complaint, including , but the developers said it was intentional.
If I rember correctly, if this was the PC version, I would have 10 Speed without any modifications right now at level 25.
I’ve been aning to search for an exploit that would let display the Speed stat, but it was terribly hard.
Ignore that, now that the Poison Dragon was gone, and the poor soul who witnessed it was no longer breathing, I strolled out of the Dark Caverns like an unapologetically white woman walking out of Black Friday sale, all giddy and horny.
Now level 25, I could practically sll my sche being cooked up. My next goal was obvious, the Holy God Knight. With that, I can have access to the Kingdom’s Plan, learning about the whereabouts of the Demon Lord, then I’ll form a guild to be the first to beat him.
I already knew the class tree like the back of my hand: Squire > Apprentice Knight > Knight > Holy Knight > Holy God Knight.
But you couldn’t just skip through classes, oh no. You had to walk the planks of sha through Squire first. A class so painstakingly trashy and useless it might as well be called "politician."
But the path to heaven seems hell, and path of hell seems heaven, that was the simplest yet late revelation of mankind.
If I have a better plan sowhere in the middle, from Knight I can change to a lot of other classes if I roleplay correctly and talk to the right NPCs and help the right people. Darkmoon Adventure by definition, was half a roleplaying ga.
I used to stab a lot of people in-ga after they told on the forum that roleplaying was more important in Darkmoon Adventure than gaplaying though, why the hell would they boot up a video ga if they don’t want to grind and combat?
I returned to Beginning City and made my way toward the Town Hall, where most of the NPCs were giving out quests for simple classes.
Few dozens of new players cramd the stone paths like it was a Black Friday sale. The air buzzed with overlapping voice chats, spell effects from showoffs, and the constant, clinking thud of sword sheathing and unsheathing. Above it all was the chaotic symphony of newbie figuring out the controls.
"Why am I so ugly?"
"What to do after the tutorial?"
"Are there laws against animals?"
"Trevor I’m over here!"
"Is that the bite of ’87?"
Around 8 different NPCs were standing around the hall at specific places. The Paladin trainer stood glowing in gold beside the Beast Tar NPC, who was arguing with a squirrel. The Ranger ntor leaned against a pillar with a dagger in her shoes.
You might be asking yourself, wouldn’t having so much players in the sa place at the sa ti overload the NPCs, since they have to talk to each and everyone of the players? And if soone was slow in responding, wouldn’t there be a line filled up?
Thankfully, the NPCs in the first few towns are client-sided and not server-sided.
Oh, in simple terms... On your device/system, you will see that the NPC always have ti to talk to you, and never acknowledge other players., though, apparently they’ve been incorporated with AI and rember your conversations in the VR version... I wonder how much mory that requires if this ga going to reach a peak of a million players, I’d imagine 20 servers running just to hold the NPCs together.
I squeezed past a group of catgirl all saying "nya~" in unison. A healer tripped and dropped a stack of bread, then soone stepped on it, and it disappeared, so he started crying.
It was like a stampede waiting to happen. Or a Michael Jackson concert held on the edge of a cliff.
The player would be given a class after finishing the tutorial here, that was probably why that Hailie play, though stupid, still have a Ranger class. My rchant class was more a secret one that needs you to do a complex quest, the details of these quests were changed after the VR version released so there was no risk of people flooding that class also.
Thank god for the early release access, giving a chance to practice clearing the Poison Dragon. I love you, late stage capitalism.
Now... Where was the Squire NPC again?
The Squire NPC stood proudly beside a broken wooden fence, brandishing and cleaning his outlandishly giant lance.
"Welco, adventurer! Are you ready to serve your kingdom and begin your sacred journey as a Squire?"
"What’s your na?" I asked, for future references, "And yes, give the quest."
Ongoing Quest: Squireship
Defeat 1,000 Bandits.
Bandits can be found in the Beginning Hills.
"I am Henry Galahad III, what about you, stranger?" The NPC squire said, smiling at warmly.
"I’ll be eting you a lot." I said, leaving his chatting vicinity right afterwards and headed towards the hill.
Sowhere along my walk, I heard in the distant, the na Lion’s Parade being said.
One of the biggest guild in Darkmoon Adventure, ran by an "acquaintance" of mine.
