===Learn how to play===
:* Say ''hi'' to characters with [[
:* Read all texts (because they won't come back)
:* Carmen and Ilisa can ''heal'' you for free

===Initial strategy===
Line 23:
# Collect food and fight in Semos dungeon to level up. With each level you can explore further and still run home alive.
# Buy "old scythe" (blacksmith), then explore farm (east/right-wards) to get lots of food.
# Ask NPCs (blue names) for ''[[StendhalQuest|quest]]'' or ''task''. Don't forget Mayor Sakhs, whose quest is repeatable once a day. Ask Starkad (south of Semos) about how to find creatures.

Line 47:
* Ham:
:* Get ham from "big" animals like lions, bears, boars.
:* Ham can be traded for items with older players, or used to make food (
* If buying or hunting for armor, remember that having a good shield is most important, then a good armor, then cloak. The def is weighted to favour in this order.
* Always carry a home scroll (buy them from Haizen's hut north of Ados rock) to get you out of emergencies
* Carry antidotes (kill deer to get these) if you often get poisoned
