9. Combat System

6dragons has a custom combat system in place.

It is designed to challenge players, but not to be so complicated that it is not fun. You don't need to worry too much about it at lower levels. However, as you progress it becomes very helpful against the monsters you'll be fighting.

The Tutorial will explain the basics of it, and you can find out much information in game by typing HELP COMBAT Back Top

10. Wilderness


What is the Wilderness?
----------------------------------------
The wilderness map is thousands of rooms all densely connected. That means that every room has a connection to the north, east, south, and west. Some directions maybe blocked at times by different terrain features.

You have several options available for how the wilderness is displayed to you. You

can adjust the display with the WILDERNESS command.

Syntax: WILD SET

Options type size map name description Types default and ( not implemented yet diamond, sphere ) Size small medium large

11. Death

When your character dies, you are reincarnated at the Altar of your home land's temple. Your corpse is left behind where you were killed, together with all of your equipment. Your gold stays in your corpse, it is wise to place money in the bank.

Any spells which were affecting you are canceled by death, and you lose experience points as well. Following/groups are not affected by death.

Corpses decay after time. When this happens the objects inside a corpse will decay with it. Player corpses last roughly 30 minutes of real time. Only the player who died or someone in their group can retrieve objects from a player's corpse. The only exceptions are for deadly characters, who can loot each other's corpses at will.

If you cannot retrieve your corpse there is an undertaker in Paleon City temple that will get it for a price.
