Newbie Dungeon

This is where you will first start hunting and questing. Only players with accounts 21 days old or less can get into this dungeon, so take advantage of it while you can.

Note: (Young) status does not matter, you can still get into the dungeon as long as you're under 21 days. Same applies to New Player Donation Chests and the Newbie Champ.

Location

Use a World Teleporter World tele.png

  • Select Custom, then Training Room
  • Once in the Training Room, there should be an orange Moongate to the west of the teleporter.

Areas

When you first enter the newbie dungeon, you can go 3 ways:

  • To the North is a small room with vendors for your basic needs.
  • To the East, you will see a pet resurrection stone. Further down that way are tougher monsters, and stairs to the second level.
    • On the second level, monsters will attack both you and your pets.
  • To the South is where you can get rich!

Note: You will be safe on the entire first level, because the monsters will not attack you; However, they will attack your pets!

Newbie Quest (aka Rat Quest)

To the south of entrance, there is an NPC, Joe, who wants you to kill rats in his house. If you complete this quest, you'll get a gold reward, reagents and organics.

  • Some rats will also drop organics as loot, collect all of these while you can.
    • Organics are used to make bio-pets and are highly sought after since they are not as easy to get once you can no longer enter the Newbie Dungeon. You can either sell them to older players and make very good money or you can save them for a later time when you yourself may want to make a bio-pet.
  • Use the reagents to fill up your Spell Caster's Keys.

The "Rat Quest" is repeatable. The quest timer resets every half hour and is separate for each of your characters. You can run the quest on one character, and then switch to other characters, while the waiting for the quest timer to reset. You can loop the whole process using several characters (max 5). By the time you are done running the quest with the 5th character, the 1st character should be able to do the quest again.

Note: A quest giver will not give you a quest, if you have any other quest active or the quest timer hasn't reset. They'll respond with "I'm busy, come back later".

  • To cancel an active quest, Single click your character to check if you have any quest that you might have picked up and forgotten.
