Courier’s Guild and Storage

The Courier?s Guild can offer you unlimited storage of your items at a reasonable price, and it can also deliver goods for you between their many storehouses throughout The Land.

In order to store items through the Courier?s Guild, you first need to pay a usage fee in gold. To cancel this agreement, you must first remove all of your items from storage, however your usage fee is not refundable.

You can share storage between different characters in your account.

......................................................................................................................
Bag

At the start of the game you will discover you are equipped with an empty bag. A bag is a place to carry items you come across or purchase in The Land. If you left click on an item in a bag you can drag and drop it. Right click on useable items in the bag to use or equip them.

If you are trading with an NPC then right clicking will cause you to sell the item. If you are trading with other players, right clicking will move the item to an open trading window.

You can equip two extra bags besides the one you are given at the start of the game. Clicking on the icon at the top of the bag window will open the corresponding bag.

If you wish to move an item from one bag to another, then simply drag the item over the icon of the other bag. The bag will automatically open.

......................................................................................................................
Temporary Bag

If you are carrry items in the pockets of a garment and that garment suddenly wears out, those items will automatically transfer to your bag.

If this happens when your bag is full then a temporary bag is created for you. You cannot put items into this temporary bag, and once you remove items from it they cannot be put back.

If you quit the game in possession of a temporary bag then you will lose all the items contained therein.

......................................................................................................................
Item Grades

The Land is filled with many different types of items, some valuable, others priceless, many worthless. All of them (except quest items) can be put in or taken out of an inventory bag or storage facility by dragging them with the mouse.

Right clicking on clothes and weapons will equip them. Right clicking on consumables, such as food or elixirs, will immediately consume them.

All Clothing and Weapons have a Durability Score. If this score falls to zero then the item is destroyed. To prevent this from happening you should repair your items regularly.

Items are ranked by their scarcity and function.

    1. Normal Items: These are readily available for purchase from normal Merchants or dropped by disciples of Deviant Clans.

    2. Precious Items: These items are superior to normal items. If you are lucky you may find one. They can also be bought from the black market. Black Market Merchants typically hide their whereabouts and cannot be spotted through the mini-map.

    3. Precious Items of The Land: These are even rarer than precious items, and are karmically connected to The Land?s well-being.

    4. Artifacts: These are exceptionally rare. You would be very lucky if you found one of these items and it could bring a great price if one were to sell it.

    5. Masterpiece: These are items made by master craftsmen and may demonstrate unique capabilities.

    6. Set Items: These are items that belong together. Individually they are not very useful, but if combined they can become quite powerful. Set Items may be weapons, clothes or accessories.

    7. The Jade Tablet of Nine Dragons: Legends tell of the Duel Of Nine Dragons, a mighty battle between the champions of each major clan that effectively ended The War of Nine Dragons. Although the Dragons themselves have long since disappeared, there are whispers that 9 lost pieces of jade, each part of a greater whole, have been scattered across The Land. It is further said that each piece bears the mark of one of the lost nine clan Dragons, and that each one has been magically imbued with untold power.

    ......................................................................................................................
Weapons

There are many different types of weapons to be found in The Land. One can use any weapon that one finds but without mastery over that type of weapon, it shall provide little attack power.

There are many prerequisites to handling a weapon (level, dexterity, strength, training and mastery). If you do not meet the correct conditions then the durability of the weapon is drastically reduced and you will be unable to utilize it?s full potential.

There are rankings for weapons that are dependant on craftsmanship, design and construction material. For example: Short Staffs are normally weaker than Bamboo Staffs, but Superior Short Staffs are stronger than Bamboo Staffs.

You can attach ornaments (grips, embroidery and tassels) to certain special weapons. These will improve the capabilities of the weapon. All weapons have a Durability Score and if this score is reduced to zero then the weapon is destroyed.

......................................................................................................................
Clothes

Clothes are primarily composed of shirts, pants, jackets wristbands, head ornaments, and shoes. Bags are not actual clothing, but there are bags that are made to be part of a matching set with certain clothes.

Any clothing item (shirts, jackets, pants or skirts) can have a maximum of four pockets. You can place accessories with various functions into these pockets. The total amount of pockets a character may utilize within their combined clothing is currently 8.

Wristbands raise your Attack Rating, and head ornaments raise your Dodge Rating.

You can attach ornaments (embroidery, insignias and talismans) to special articles of clothing. These will improve the abilities of the clothes. All clothes have a Durability Score and if this score is reduced to zero then the clothes are destroyed.

......................................................................................................................
Tomes

Tomes are special books you can read that will miraculously give you instruction in Kung Fu. Tomes are not always shaped like books, some are scrolls and others are wrapped into bamboo poles.

The actual Kung Fu techniques of your clan can only be learned through your clan NPCs. However, should you find and be capable of reading one of these special Tomes, you may learn some interesting new moves.

......................................................................................................................
Treatments

You can treat both your internal and external wounds by consuming a treatment, such as a medicinal herb, or by visiting a doctor in a local town and paying him to Heal you.

To consume a treatment, right click on it or put it in your quickslot bar and press the correspoding key. Treatments will be destroyed when used. It may take time for your wounds to heal, and you may not be capable of consuming other treatments during that time.

You can buy treatments from any doctor.

......................................................................................................................
Food

If you eat food then your recovery rate will accelerate.

One cannot eat while in Combat Mode.

To consume food, right click on it or put it in your quickslot bar and press the corresponding key.

......................................................................................................................
Supplements

Supplements are either items that you must have to perform a certain Kung Fu or Chi Kung technique, or items that amplify the effects of a Kung Fu or Chi Kung technique.

For example: Certain charms of Sacred Flower will not activate unless a disciple resides in a "Posessed" State, where it is said that The Mistress of Chaos guides their thoughts and actions. Certain maneuvers of The League cannot be performed unless a disciple is limbered up enough to reside in a "Drunken" State.

To use a supplement, right click on it or put it in your quickslot bar and press the correspoding key.

......................................................................................................................
Elixirs

Elixirs are consumable medicines that are rumored to have a permanent effect on one?s capabilities, or to even bring back the dead. They can be created from herbs or from some other mysterious ingredients using ancient, secret methods. Elixirs have been discovered for Strength, Essence, Wisdom, Constitution, and Dexterity.

Elixirs do not always work and their effects are often random.

Sometimes Elixirs may have unforseen side effects. They are affected by your physical constitution and blind luck.

You should make sure that you are in a safe location before consuming an Elixir.

If you have had bad luck with an Elixir then you may possibly return to your original state by taking another one.

After consuming an Elixir, other Elixirs of the same level or lower can be retaken freely.

By retaking Elixirs of the same level you can regain any capability you might have lost. And then take it?s own effect, which may or may not be beneficial. Each level of Elixir has a different maximum amount of bonus.

You can maximize an Elixir?s effects through the use of Supplementary Elixirs.

Supplementary Elixirs
These specialized medicines remove the side effects of Elixirs and maximize their effectiveness.

For best results you need to take the Supplementary Elixir first.

There are Neutralizers that can cancel out the side effects from Elixirs, Softeners that help taking the Elixirs, and Fortifiers that can maximize the effects.

......................................................................................................................
Ambrosias

Ambrosias are very rare and mysterious medicinal remedies.

Taking an ambrosia will temporarily raise your stats to extreme levels.

Ambrosias typically do not last for very long, so try to not be in a middle of a life or death battle when one runs out!

......................................................................................................................
Accessories

Accessories are small items that you can place in your pockets. Each accessory has its own purpose and will work automatically when worn. You can have up to eight pockets and each one can house a single accessory.

Some Accessories may require you to be at a certain Cheng (level) before you can use them. If this is the case you will not be able to equip the accessory until you achieve the required level.

......................................................................................................................
Craft Tools

You may acqure Craft Tools during your travels in The Land. For example, there is a special tool called an Ornament Binder, which may be purchased, that allows you to attach ornaments to your clothing and weapons.
......................................................................................................................
Ornaments

Ornaments are items which perform a special function. You need to attach them to clothes or weapons before they will have an effect.

You can add grips and embroidery to your weapons as ornamentation. You can do the same for clothes with embroidery and talismans. Insignias can be attached to either clothes or weapons.

Once you have attached an ornament it cannot be removed. Ornaments that have a time limit will simply disappear when the time has elapsed.

......................................................................................................................
Selling and Buying Items

Merchants will buy almost any item you can find. You can sell an item to a merchant by right clicking the item or by dragging it with the mouse.

Items thay you cannot use (due to level, gender or incorrect clan) will be displayed in the merchant window in red. You can still purchase them if you wish but you will not be able to use them.

Some items that you cannot yet use (due to incorrect level or attributes) will have additional information displayed on them.

Remember to check the Clan Contribution Point value on any items you intend to sell to a merchant. You may prefer to donate an item with high Clan Contribution Points to your clan.

......................................................................................................................
Durability and Repair

All items have a Durability Score. When items are used, they suffer wear and tear. If you are unskilled with an item it wears out much more quickly. If you enter a coma or dying state your items will wear out even faster.

Items like weapons and clothing can be repaired in most towns by a Blacksmith or Seamstress.

The rough Durability Score of an item is shown by clicking on it. An exact Durability Score can be seen only during purchase or repair.

......................................................................................................................
Collecting Materials

The raw materials that can be found in The Land are varied and plentiful.

It is well worth your while to collect certain raw materials as there are NPCs who will buy collections from you for tremendous amounts of gold, or they may exchange something even more valuable.

You can check the status of your material collections by pressing the (L) key.

......................................................................................................................
Collecting Collectibles

You may also find some collectible items while you travel The Land. These items have a rich history and that makes them quite valuable. Wan Daye, a collector who resides in the Heifei Marketplace is a conesseur of such trinkets.

If you take your collections to Wan Daye he will exchange them for items of great value.

You can check the status of your collectables by pressing the (L) key.

......................................................................................................................
Masks

Within the game it is possible to wear a Mask. Masks are used to hide one?s identity from others. While wearing a mask, you can hide your name, clan, and level from anyone outside your Party.

[Wear Mask]
Masks can be purchased from Black Market Merchants. You can see the mask in the bag window, and you can put them on by either double-clicking or right-clicking them.

[Remove Mask]
You can remove both your own mask or a mask worn by someone else.
Here are the methods:

[Remove My Mask]
While you are wearing a mask, it will be displayed as an icon in the upper-left corner of the screen.
Right click on this icon to remove the mask you are wearing.

[Remove Other’s Mask]
In order to remove someone else?s mask, you need to learn a Kung Fu technique called "Revealing Hand Maneuver". You can learn this technique from a Sifu in towns near clan strongholds.
