==[[Skills|Skill]]/Item Slots== | |||
The Skill Slots are where you equip your skills to use in combat. By default you start off with 4 slots (A-Slot) unlocked. You can unlock 4 additional slots (B-Slot) by purchasing '''Skill Slot Change Medal''' from the '''Item Mall'''. Another slot can be unlocked by completing the [[Transcendence]] quest. The final slot can be unlocked after completion of the Transcendence quest, by purchasing '''Skill Slot Expansion (Transcendent)''' from the '''Item Mall'''. | |||

===Quick Slots=== | |||
'''Quick Slots''' are used to equip consumable items from your inventory, such as potions, food, drinks, [[Monster Card System|Monster Cards]], and other consumables. These items can only be used during gameplay if they are equipped to one of your quick slots, and will trigger the item's cooldown when swapping items in a field or dungeon. Equipping them in a town or resting area, skips the cooldown. By default, 3 quckslot slots are unlocked, the remaining 3 must be unlocked by purchasing the '''Extend Quick Slot''' item from the '''Item Mall'''. | |||

Megaphones are obtained from the '''Item Mall''', [[Ariel]], or Events. | ||

- | [[File:DungeonSelect.png|center]] | ||
By click 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, currently cannot be accessed until you unlock them by meeting the requirement(s), and complete all dungeons leading up to it in that region. | |||
===Starting A Dungeon=== | |||
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 Item Level, as well as at least be in the level range for that dungeon in order to start. The latter option bypasses these requirements completely. | |||
===Indicators=== | |||
Sometimes dungeons, and region tabs will be marked with specific icons. | |||
* Dungeons and Regions marked with a '''Q''' indicate that an active quest is available there. | |||
* Dungeons marked with a Flag icon indicates that Hero's Call is active, and will reward a Heroes Coin upon completion if '''Start Dungeon''' was selected. | |||
* Regions marked with Chains, indicate that the region's Secret Dungeon is currently open. | |||
* Secret Dungeons with a Padlock over them, indicate that they are closed. You can hover over them to see the next date in which they will be open. | |||
==Partying With Friends== | ==Partying With Friends== | ||
- | Forming parties is very beneficial, as you can receive benefits such as increased drop rates, fever buffs, and the ability to clear dungeons faster due to playing as a team. There are a multitude of ways you can form parties, and to do so, you must either not be in a party, or be the leader of your own party (indicated by a star next to your name), and the other player(s) must not already be in a party themselves. To invite someone to your party, you may do any of the following methods. | ||
===1. Name Input=== | |||
By right-clicking directly on your character, or on your portrait, you will be given an option to invite another player to your party. You will be given a text box, in which you can manually enter the name of the person you wish to add. | |||
===2. Community/Friend/Guild List Invite=== | |||
You can easily add anyone to your party through use of the '''Community''' tabs. Community tabs can be accessed through the speech bubble icon in the menu area, or by using hotkeys. By default, you can press '''[0]''' to access the Community tab, '''[Y]''' to access your Friend's list, and '''[9]''' to access your Guild member list. From here you can right click on anyone's name and select to invite them to your party. | |||
===3. Direct Invite=== | |||
By simply right-clicking on any players whilst in a town or field, you can select to invite them directly to your party. | |||
