Stats, Values and Skills
While traveling in the land of Astonia, you will meet with many dangers and perils. You must learn to master your spells and skills. Only then shall you victoriously pass all trials and adventures awaiting you. As you gain experience, you must raise the right skills and spells to become the ultimate hero.
Attributes
Four attributes form the base for most other skills and spells. These are Wisdom, Intuition, Agility and Strength. In the game, RIGHT CLICK on these attributes in your stats window to read about them. You must use the right combination of these attributes to enhance your most important skills.
Each skill and spell is based on three of the attributes. The actual skill/spell level is calculated by adding the attributes and dividing them by 5 (plus adding the skill, of course):
final_skill_level=(base1+base2+base3)/5+base_skill_level+magical_modifiers
Attributes cannot be enhanced by more than 50% through the use of Bless and special items.
Skills and Spells
In the game, RIGHT CLICK on these the skills and spells in your stats window to read about each one. Skills cannot be enhanced by more than 50% through the use of special items.
Professions
In addition to the skills system, characters can learn up to four individual professions. Characters can gain profession points (PPS) by raising a skill called “Profession.” At level 20, every character acquires this skill. All classes can raise this skill to level 25 (arches to 50). Each individual Profession maxes at level 25.
Characters can subsequently spend their PPS by doing an apprenticeship with a teacher at Aston University to either learn a new profession, or to increase their knowledge of a profession they have already begun to master. Learning a new profession requires a character to pay for his studies with gold (coins, not nuggets).
Each Profession initially costs 300 gold to learn, then 250 gold to improve. Learning and each instance of improving your individual profession increases that particular Profession by five (5) levels.
Use /support to share your Profession with other players. Support allows another player to use your Profession just as if they had the Profession themselves. The player must be in visual range to share support. Once the player leaves the area, support is removed. Professions that can share support are: Enhancer, Trader, Alchemist, and Smith.
Currently, Aston University offers the following Professions:
Alchemist
The alchemist can create stronger potions, calling on the powers of the moons and the seasons at any time. Type: /time in game to see the current moon phase or season.
Enhancer
The art of the Enhancer allows you to utilize the full power dormant in magic stones. An Enhancer can create strong orbs faster than normal. Stone strength is increased by PPS percentage; the higher level of Enhancer you obtain, the stronger your stones will be.
Mercenary
Those skilled in the art of the Mercenary will collect pay for their missions.
Miner
A skilled Miner will make better use of every vein of precious metal he finds. He also will not exhaust as fast as an unskilled miner.
Smith
A Smith can repair magic items using less silver and gold.
Trader
Traders get a bonus when buying/selling in shops
