External Woounds and Internal Wound

There are two types of wound that you can receive in 9Dragons, Internal and External. Untreated External Wounds prevent you from recovering your full amount of Life during meditation, and Internal Wounds have the same effect on your recovery or Vital Energy. The serousness of your wounds are shown as numbers to the right of both your Life(red) and Vital Energy(blue) bars.*

To treat your wounds and recover full Life or Vital Energy you will need to request aid from an NPC Doctor at a Clinic, use items which can be purchased from them, or seek a player with advanced healing skills. Wounds occur in combat following Critical Hits from opponents, or from being attacked during meditation or Chi Breathing. Some monsters excel at inflicting wounds rather than damage, so be on guard at all time.



Near-Death and Coma States

If your Life bar falls to zero you will enter a state called Near-Death Should this happen, pray for enlightenment. While Near-Death you will eventually fall into a state called Coma. If you are in a group with friends, then one of them can revive you from your Coma by quickly DOUBLE-CLICKING upon you and sharing their Chi. This technique is called Reviving Chi Kung. You too can apply your Chi to assist those who are Near-Death by administering your own Reviving Chi Kung with a DOUBLE-CLICK. This can prevent you from having to return great distances should you choose to revive elsewhere. If a friend revives you on the spot you will lose more experience than if you revive at your Clan Base or at an Inn.

Coma state means you will lise various amount of Experience Points and then revive at the location of your choice. Revival on the spot where you lay Dying costs your more Experience Points than reviving at an Inn or at your Clan Base. So choose your place of revival with care, rather than upon impulse.

Rage and Berserk States

When you score Critical Hits in combat, small dots appear in the Experience Circle in the upper left of the screen. When the dots have filled the circle all the way around you enter Rage Mode. In this mode your defence is reduced but your attacks will do more damage. When you are in Rage Mode you can choose to enter Berzerker Moder by double-clicking the rage icon within the Experience Circle. This will lower your defence even further but will grant you exceptianlly powerful attacks.

Masteries

Your Kung Fu grows much stronger if you can mster your weapon. You gain one Mastery Point(to be allocated to a weapon specialty) each time you character levels up one Cheng (an example would be rising from Losing Self 1 to Losing Self 2). Each time you advance to the next full Level, you will gain three Mastery Points(an example would be rising from Losing Self 12 to Gathering Chi 1).

You can allocate these Mastery Points to any weapon specialty as you see fit, but it would be wise to match your preferred specialty to your future Clan Role. If you are undecided, know that you can rest these masteries when you choose your Role for the first time.
