Sell fat sheep (+150 money for weight 100 sheep) to Sato. Get some xpXP:▼ * Do the quests in Semos city by talking to NPCs. * Do the monster quest for Mayor Sakhs in the townhall of Semos City, it is repeatable once a day. Ask Starkad (south of Semos) about how to find creatures.▼ Get some basic equipment: Line 35 ⟶ 47: * Get <item>studded shield</item> from Hayunn Naratha by returning to him a third time after you talked to Monogenes. == Interesting areas == ▲Get some xp: * Collect food and fight in Semos dungeon to level up. With each level you can explore further and still run home alive. * At level 54 the wolfs north of Semos City are a good source for food. * Collect food and fight around Semos. Visit the Farm in the east of Semos City. * At about level 8 try bears east of Semos, but be careful in this area. * At about level 510 try gnome city (in the north west of Semos) or <creature>kobold</creature> (north of ~~semos~~Semos, in the mines).▼ * Ask NPCs (blue names) for ''[[StendhalQuest\|quest]]'' or ''task''. ▲* Do the monster quest for Mayor Sakhs in the townhall of Semos City, it is repeatable once a day. Ask Starkad (south of Semos) about how to find creatures. == More Tips: == * Being poisoned swaps left/right and up/down cursor keys. ▲* At about level 5 try <creature>kobold</creature> (north of semos, in the mines). * Bring a friend to go deeper in the Semos dungeon. * Areas where you are protected from being attacked by other players are marked green on minimap. Line 49 ⟶ 63: Things to avoid: * Be careful in Semos dungeon because it gets quite * Dying, because dying means you lose stuff, EXP points and skills. (Or for a new player with no EXP yet: put all stuff in bank and explore. Die=coming back home.) * Don't buy armor (in tavern back room) before trying the free places: charity chest (in Semos mud), talking and doing tasks/quests (legs, shield for free), getting it from corpses in Semos dungeon. * Don't waste money in the "wishing well" lottery (until you become rich). Dice gambling is more rewarding at low levels - check the list of prizes on the walls by the gambling table in Semos Tavern. Line 77 ⟶ 91: * Having a good shield is most important, then a good armor, then cloak. The def is weighted to favour in this order. ~~<br>~~ ~~<br>~~ ==See also== [[StendhalManual \| Stendhal Manual]]
