JB's Beginner Guide To The Perfect World

Welcome to JB's house of wonders & tips.

I hope this guide will answer all questions and such.
You may not agree with some of the stuff but this is just a guide to send you in the right direction and path.


General Tips :

Celestone Fragments Normally you will receive one of these after an important quest, these are important if you are wishing to get rare equipment later in the game. 25 Of these stones will get you a mirage stone, always keep these in your bank for safe keeping. They can be traded in for a Mirage Stone at a Gem Merchant.


Celestones Heaven, Hell and Human are also important towards the Mirage stones. 3 Of each stone will grant you a Mirage stone which can be traded in at the Gem Merchant(These are usually standing next to a banker).


Hierogram's You will recieve one of these in the first 5 quests. Always choose the HP hierogram as it will be one of the most important items you ever gained. This will automatically recharge your HP once it has gone below a certain lvl, never choose the MP one. Even if your a MAGE! Like me


Crafting At level 5 you will receive quests to Path Of.... It's best to choose all as they give Exp and good for later. By now you should have atleast 2000 Gold, go to the merchant located in different cities for different classes and buy a pickaxe. You will have to go around the area/world finding these resources, they will respawn after a while.

After completing the quests you can now make weapons, armour and such.. To make them they require different resources, more expensive materials being for the better weapon. Everytime you craft something you will gain Craft-Exp for that certain Craft. When you have gained all Exp you can now go to the Elder and gain level 2 crafting in Blacksmith or a certain skill. This means you can now make better weapons which will gain rarer weapons. The higher your rank the better the weapons will be.

Making rank 4 in any certain Craft is good enough so don't worry cause you won't be able to rank up until your level 50.
If you have made a weapon that you won't need, being you're just trying to get the rank up, there is a use for them.

When you reach level 30 you will be granted to fly, this makes it easier to get through the massive world. There is a way to go faster but this requires Fuel-Crystals/Accelerator-Fuel which gets quite expensive. The best thing to do is to sell them rather than using the fast option, selling them in the auction or in your shop will gain more gold for later use.


SoulStones So you might of gained a soulstone from a mob or a quest and wondered what the hell it does? There are different types of soulstones depending on what colour/element it is. These can give you stats ranging from HP, MP, Dex and Magic. There are also different levels of gems that give better effects to your equipment, these soulstones can be added at the Tailor|BlackSmith. Equipment that is 3 Stars or above will make your equipment glow an aura being Violet|Red, adding 2 different soulstones combined will give a sparkling effect.


Fuel Crystals

Fuel crystals will not matter until you are 30+ when you will be able to fly. You also have an option to fly faster rather than travelling at a rather slow speed, although these require fuel crystals which run out quite fast. You can buy these crystals from either players or disassembling items. Although you may think getting loads of 1 star items and disassembling isn't the best idea as it doesn't give as much crystals as higher star items. I'd advise selling your crystals in your own shop or auction.



FB You may of saw in world chat or general chat, need 'so&so' for FB19, don't be worried all explained here. Each 10 levels from level 19 you will receive a quest normally from the cultivation master, cultivation is much like ranks in the army, doing something heroic to gain rank and loyalty. Depending on what FB it is you will gain a tablet that will sit in your inventory. Each FB gets harder by more mobs and taking longer to complete which can last atleast two hours.



Moulders These things you won't need to worry about until your high level or not even worry about them at all depending on what gamer you are. Moulders can be gained from FB's (Read Above) when you reach a boss at the end, they will drop anything from a rare weapon to alot of gold. The best chance to get rarer items is to let the lowest level in your party get the last hit. But one item in particular people look for is moulders, these cost from 250k upto millions depending on what class and what moulder. From level 60 you can craft these at the main town at deity pots, this requires a person with the right crafting level and resources.


Holy Hall

This is a dungeon for levels 60+ much like the FB's but grant you rare items if you complete it, because of the rarity they glow a certain colour. These dungeons are quite hard so people generally decide to buy HH equipment instead of doing it the manual way.


Dragon Quest So when you made your character you may have seen an NPC called Dragon Emissary, this guy will give you quests after level 21, these quests aren't important but they give you Dragon Tablets. Level 21-31 will give you bronze tablets, 31-51 will give you silver and 61+ gives gold. These tickets can be exchanged for prizes being a horse as a mount to rare items such as a moulder but you will need alot of tickets. The quests take alot of time and money so people dont like to go this path. But you can sell your tablets for alot of money for people who were sucked into the prizes, so you just laugh at them.


Map

Red - Pressing this shows the target location/preset box.
Blue - When going into a city it will show the NPC list, if you can't find an NPC this is the best way to find them. Just scroll through the list and double click on the NPC.
Green - Finding an NPC or location you know the co-ordinates of, put the numbers in and press the small green >>> then follow the big arrows on screen.
Yellow - After double clicking on an NPC or putting in a co-ordinate arrows of different colours will show up, follow this to get to your location.
Pink - This shows the current list of places you have listed to go to.


Quests



Red - If you have run out of quests to find/do pressing this will show the NPC and co-ordinates of the quest.
Cyan - This is the current list of quests you need to complete.

Quests are the main way to level up in this game as it does become a bit grindy upto level 60+.
After level 60 you will only receive two-three quests giving 30% maybe less, maybe more so prepare for mob-grinding.


PVP Player VS Player is one of the main factors is mostly every RPG game, I'm not that really type of gamer so don't expect me to give you tips here. PVP'ing in Perfect World is actually bad, you will be spammed, hated and put onto hit lists by guilds. So I'd advise never to kill a player and encourage all guildies not to.
Once you reach level 30 you can kill players, killing a player makes them lose exp and chance of dropping items but they will receive karma that will last 2 hours for every person they kill, if their name is red and you kill them all items in their inventory will be dropped except items listed.


Guild's In this game it's much more than just having a fancy name above your head. Each guild can own a piece of land in the game which gives them certain benefits such as; 10 Million gold, cheaper items, teleporting to that certain area and crafting items at the governor. But to gain this land you must take part in a Territory War known as 'TW'. Your guild must be level 2(Costs 1-2 mil, must check) and sign up at the TW manager, only 2 guilds can fight but other guilds can bet on the land to get into the war.

Classes :


WereFox/Venomancer

This is one of the most funnest classes to play as in Perfect World as taming pets and etc can be seemed as fun. But if your looking to get this character till the end game or high levels it will require alot of patience and time.

This class is deemed as one of the money-making classes, catching rare pets and selling them onto people who just want a cute pet. (Will gather locations and spawn times later.)
There are quite a few builds to this class, as it's mainly a mage class but can be used as melee.

Builds

Mage - Vit./Mag. This build is for the normal player, relies mostly on the pet and bad for PVP.
Light Armour Mage - Str./Mag./Vit/Dex. This build is also for the normal player, not that relient on the pet as Mage.
Heavy Armour Warrior - Str./Vit. This is the melee build, very good for PVP and not relient on the pet.
Hybrid Mage - Mag./Str. This build is mage and melee, not reccomended for new players but very good in PVP.

Skills



Red - Max these skills.
Green - Do not go pass level 1.
All other skills are new so I will look into these.

Pulling

You may of heard the term pulling used in a dungeon or FB. Sending out usually a golem as it tanks, they make them attack using the macro and quickly pull them into the party one by one so the party won't have to take them all at once.


So there are lots of questions about which pet is the best, it very much depends on your build but its good to have a variety of pets that will help later in the game.
You will need pet that will tank (Takes the damage whilst you hit the monster).
You will also need a pet that flies, this will help in quests that require you to kill mobs in the air.
Golems are best the pets to choose as they tank and give a nice damage.


WereBeast/Barbarian

I got to know this class in MY version alot as it was my main and highest level character. People say it's one of the slowest class to level but I'd disagree as it's all about the build. It's a very important class to have in any guild and FB as it tanks. It does cost alot of money to maintain depending on what build you go for,skills and armour but it's worth it. There is two main builds to this character to choose for each one having con's and pro's. This build can also transform into a White Tiger for more HP, although this makes the the monster aggro attack you.


Builds

Tanker - Vit. Mainly just piling on the Vit. for the HP, you can get it upto atleast 8,000 by level 55. Add Dex./Str. on for equipment when needed. Never touch Mag.
Strength - Vit.(+1)Str.(+3)Dex(+1) This build focuses on damage, (+) means add the following for each time you level.
There are other builds out there but it's for veterans and people that want to PVP.


Transformation

You can transform into a White Tiger once you have gained the skill, giving you more HP and faster speed to get across the huge world. I never really used the transform fighting against mobs unless I really needed to for some reason. The Barbarian/WB is weak against magic attacks which is why people do use it, but it's your choice.


Skills



Red - These are all the skills you should be maxing out as soon as possible.
Green - These skills are the one's you shouldn't be leveling up and only put 1 point into.
All other skills are new to me so I will have to look into them for you.


Mage


This I've never really got a chance to know, although I do know they are a very valuable class and best class to kill mobs. Depending on a mage's build they can be defensive to high HP to high damage and very low HP. The most common build is an equal share of damage and HP. High level mages pushing level 60+ can be very valuable in FB's with the amount of damage and skills it has to take out mobs. There are three types of elemental skills to choose from, choosing all three is kind of impossible as you'd need to grind for SkillPoints.


Builds

High Damage - Mag./Str. You should be adding atleast 1-2 Str. points every two levels and putting all the rest into Mag.
Hybrid - Mag./Str./Vit. This build is the main build giving HP still but maintaining quite alot of damage.
HP Build - Vit./Mag. I advise not to choose this build as it's really weird but mostly putting points into HP here.


Skills

There are three elements in the skill tree to choose from, these are divided into Earth, Fire and Water. Fire is quite high damaging with an okay'ish cooldown, Earth is the highest damage but with the longest casting time and Water being the supporting elements of the tree with mana recharge and healing. You mainly want to be choosing two of these elements depending on what kind of player you are.

Choosing Fire/Earth is best for party using high damage.
Choosing Water/Fire is best if your a player that goes solo with the support skills helping you out.

The shields are one of the most important skills to max out as soon as possible.
All other skills depends on what element skill you are going for.
