{{Languages|UI Guide}}
On 8/10/12, KOG released the User Interface Revamp together with the Hunting Fields in the Korean server.

== UI Guide ==
[[File:UI2016.png|thumb|600px|An overview of the user interface]]
===Character Information===
Your character's username, Level (El Resonance Level), Resurrection Stone Count, HP, MP, Awakening Orbs, and other information is displayed in the top-left corner of your screen. Certain characters may display additional information depending on their [[Character Systems|Character System]]. If you currently have a [[Pet Guide|Pet]] summoned, its hunger and MP will be displayed underneath your character's portrait, as well as pet's quick slot.


Some changes of the UI will be:<br>
===Channel/Location===
# Skills slots are no longer below the HP/MP bar, but instead be at the center bottom of your screen. (You can place them under the HP/MP bar by changing the settings in the options, though)
The channel you are currently in, as well as your location within the game, will be displayed in the top-right of your screen. By clicking on the arrow next to your current channel, you can quickly select another channel to switch to, without exiting back to the menu (Can only be used in towns).
#Skills in the Slot B (if you have) will be displayed above the normal Slot A skills. You can access them directly with the QWER keys or use the spacebar key to swap them.
===Buffs and Debuffs===
#EXP/Stamina bar will be displayed at the bottom of the screen below the skill slots.
:''Main Article: [[Status Effects]]''<br>
#Megaphone text will be displayed above the normal chat text.
Your current Buffs and Debuffs are displayed just underneath your Channel/Location info. Small icons will appear to indicate the buffs and/or debuffs your character currently has, which can be hovered over to view additional info, as well as an accompanying timer to signify how much longer the effect will last. Server-wide buffs/benefits that affect every player, are listed in the top-center of the screen. the display can be moved freely around the screen and be flipped.
#Minimap will be displayed at the bottom right instead of the top right.
#[[Chung]]'s Ammo bar will be displayed below his HP/MP.
#Players can now start dungeons within town instead of running out to the hunting fields.
#The normal menu bar (normally placed at the bottom of the screen) will now be below the Mini-map.
#ED and AP values will no longer be shown at the bottom. (Open inventory to view)
#Before the dungeon start, there will always be a 3 second waiting time before the dungeon loads.
#Durability of equipment and mails are moved together into the minimap. However, it's kinda small.
#The sky and backgrounds have been changed in the towns, and dungeons to match the change in "The Fields" update.

The minimap indicates nearby NPCs and Party Members in towns. In dungeons, it will also display the number of remaining mobs in an area. You can click the 'M' button next to the minimap to view the Town/World map, or by pressing the '''[M]''' key. Pressing the key in a Dungeon will display the Dungeon map. Mail information, time to get event rewards (if there is an event), and item durability warnings are displayed next to the minimap. A repair option will appear here when your equipment durability is low, allowing you to repair it mid-dungeon, although repairing using this method costs significantly more than at a blacksmith.

==Begin Playing==
===Starting A Dungeon===
:''Main Article: [[Dungeons]]''<br>
By clicking the '''Dungeon''' button, you can select the region and dungeon in which you wish to play in, granted you have them unlocked. Dungeons that are grayed out cannot be accessed until you unlock them by meeting the requirement(s), and complete all dungeons leading up to it in that region.

<br>
<br>
[[File:DungeonSelect.png|center|911px]]
<br>
On the majority of dungeons, you have the option to either automatically queue up for a party, by pressing the larger '''Start Dungeon (F8)''' button, or immediately enter as-is with '''Start with current members'''. When queuing, you are required to meet the minimum Appropriate Combat Power, as well as at least be in the level range for that dungeon in order to start. The latter option bypasses the level requirement but not the Combat Power one.
Only 95% of the Combat Power requirement is needed to enter the dungeon. Do note that meeting the minimum Combat Power requirements does not guarantee that the dungeon can be cleared with an ease and within a convenient amount of time, if at all.


== Chung's UI ==
===Indicators===
As stated above, [[Chung]]'s Ammo bar is now displayed below his HP/MP.<br>
[[File:PvPUI.png|thumb|200px|Arena interface]]
For [[Iron Paladin]], it will only go to half of the MP bar.<br>
Sometimes dungeons, and region tabs will be marked with specific icons.
For [[Deadly Chaser]], it will stretch to the end of the MP bar due to the passive [[Remodel Magazine]].<br>
*Dungeons and Regions marked with a '''(Q)''' indicate that an active quest is available there.
For [[Tactical Trooper]], it will also stretch to the end of the MP bar, but half of it is normal blue ammo while the other half is the red ammo for Reverse shelling.<br>
*Dungeons with limited time entries with have timers next to them, indicating how long entry is available for, or how long until it will be opened.
Another thing to note about Chung's UI, is that [[Iron Paladin]]'s default picture at the top left is his skill cut in. [[Iron Paladin]] is the only character currently like this .<br>
*Raid dungeons display small empty or filled beads under their icons indicating clear progress.

<br>
===Starting a PvP Match===
:''Main Article: [[PvP]]''<br>

== Selecting Dungeons ==

[[File:DungeonS.jpg]]
The community tabs enable you to easily find other plays, and view information about their character, as well as see which of your friends are online.

<br>

During Mini-Boss and Boss's cut-scene, the area will be darkened to give that story look.<br>
The '''All''' tab allows you to see every player that is currently in the same location as you currently are in, along with their username, character icon, and their level. You can interact with players from this menu, such as viewing their equipment, adding them as a friend, or challenging them to a duel. It should be noted that a number of features require you to be standing close to the other player in order for them to work.
[[File:BossS.jpg|400px]]
=== Secret Dungeon Entry ===
After the field and UI revamp, you are required to be level 50 and above to access the secret dungeons.


<br>
===Friend===
=== Unable to access dungeons because of equipment ===

From here you can initiate a private chat between friends, which opens up an independent chat window that can be closed or minimized. You will receive a notification upon receiving messages from friends, which can be accessed by clicking on the community button.
<br>
[[File:Itemrestrict.png]]<br><br>
'''If you see this message pop-up after selecting dungeons (F8), it means that your current equipment level doesn't match the item level restriction for that dungeon. <br><br>
[[File:Itemlvreq.jpg]] [[File:Avglvitem.jpg]]<br><br>
'''The party matching is based on items you used, so please make sure you change equipment regularly to match the average item level requirements. This does not matter if you are soloing the dungeon or playing with party members.'''
'''Equipment Item Level Point is subject to equipment's level and upgrade level. The higher the upgrade level, the more Item Level point you'll get upon equipped it.'''


<br>

*During early beta versions of the KR version of the game, most of the entire game functioned through a menu UI. Villages were all simply select screens where you choose which options you'd like to use, rather than a fully rendered village to walk around in.

Community

The community tabs enable you to easily find other plays, and view information about their character, as well as see which of your friends are online. Players who are Coupled or Married, can also access features on the couples tab. Mentor-Pupil System options and information are also available within the community tabs.

All

The All tab allows you to see every player that is currently in the same location as you currently are in, along with their username, character icon, and their level. You can interact with players from this menu, such as viewing their equipment, adding them as a friend, or challenging them to a duel. It should be noted that a number of features require you to be standing close to the other player in order for them to work.

Friend

The Friend tab, gives you a list of all or your added friends, and shows you when they are online or offline. From here you can initiate a private chat between friends, which opens up an independent chat window that can be closed or minimized. You will receive a notification upon receiving messages from friends, which can be accessed by clicking on the community button.

Couple/Marriage

Main Article: Wedding System

The Couple/Marriage tab allows you to see a full render of yourself, and your partner, as well as their current status and location. Married couples will have an option to request their partner to teleport to their exact location for free. Couples who wish to break up will also have the option to do so from this menu, for a fee.

Trivia

  • During early beta versions of the KR version of the game, most of the entire game functioned through a menu UI. Villages were all simply select screens where you choose which options you'd like to use, rather than a fully rendered village to walk around in.
