FAQs asked by new players

I see these questions a lot. And I mean A LOT in Roumen, so I hope this helps anyone who is wondering this or has asked this but never got an answer.

• Q: How do I get money/copper?
  

A: Since monsters don't drop money, you have to sell the drops by either going to an NPC and selling it to them or sell them in your vendor (press b and then click 'sell' to get it started). But if you want to put the drops to use, you can take up production skills and sell the things that you make with them. Questing also gives you money.

• Q: How do I sell stuff to NPCs?
  

A: Right clicking the item will sell them one by one. Ctrl+right click it and it'll sell as a stack, you may also hold Shift+right click to be more specific over how many items you want to sell. (Also works with purchasing.) But you usually want to sell or let other players buy from you even though it will take longer because you will make more money.

• Q: How do I get into Kingdom Quests?
  

A: Bring up the Kingdom Quest menu, located on your map (the little hour-glass). The next earliest is at the last Kingdom Quest on the list. There is a time there. Kingdom Quests are even hours, i.e. 2:00, 4:00, 6:00, etc. Wait until the Kingdom Quest says "recruiting" next to it, then press "participate". You may or may not get in. The best way to get in is to use shift+z to reduce the lag(you can only do this in Elderine and Roumen). GOOD LUCK!

• Q: How do I get that apprentice _____ next to my name?
  

A: This is called a title, and you can attain it by reaching level 10. After you are level 10, press "c" and click "change" on the right top corner. This is your title list. You can have a lot more than just one or two. Check here for the list of titles and info on them (incomplete). Click the title you want and click register. Once you do this, it should be by your name.

• Q: What is fame for?
  

A: For purchasing alchemy stones, certain recipes, Level 20 and Level 60 special skills. Fame can be obtained from quests and killing monsters.

• Q: How do I get that wooden horse?
  

A: Go to Item Merchant Pey down by the stairs in Roumen, and she'll have a wooden horse available for 500c. You also need flotation stones also sold by Pey, the riding skill, sold by Skill Master Ruby, is also a requirement.

• In general terms, it's called a "mover." There is more than just a wooden horse but most mounts are bought from the Fiesta Cash Shop.
  
  

• Q: How do I buy things from other players?
  

A: You use the vendor button, 'B' and choose to buy. Once the box opens up, you put the item you want to buy in one of the boxes and put in how many of it you want and how much you are paying. Make sure to leave it where there are a lot of people who have that item(s) go by there. Also, make sure you have at least one of the item(s) you want to buy. Also.. finding vendors with pink titles is also a way to buy things. Just find a vendor that is selling the items that you want.

• Q: How do I get tier 2 production scrolls?
  

A: They are now sold beside tier 1 production scrolls. You buy tier 3 with fame. Some production skills are only obtainable by events and monster drops.

• Q: How to get skills?
  

A: Go talk to Skill Master in town. For Roumen, it's Skill Master Ruby. You need the required level to use the skills. You also have to buy those skills. Once you buy it, right click the purple scroll in your inventory to learn the skills. Eventually you will buy your skills in Elderine from either Master Keast, Wishis, Marty, or Deikid.

• Q: How to use skill points?
  

A: Once you click on the skill empowerment box, you will see 4 different icons. The first one with a fire sword picture is to increase skill power/damage. The second one with a blue orb icon is to decrease SP consumption when using a skill. The third icon is to increase buff time. This empowerment is only used on buff skills. The last icon is to decrease cooldown time, which allows you to use the skill again sooner.

• Q: How to empower skills?
  

A: You will have to click and drag a skill icon to the empty box. There are up and down arrows and you have to click the up and down arrows to empower. You can empower a particular skill to a max of 5 points per type of empowerment.

• Q: I can't seem to empower certain skills, why is that so?
  

A: Some skills cannot be empowered in some areas, Ie: buffs cannot have Basic Power(damage)empowered. Also, you can only empower each empowerment area by 5 points max.

• Q: How do I leave a party?
  

A: At the top left hand side of the screen you see your character's face. Right click it and leave party.

• Q: How do I change a loot to be sequential instead of free allocation?
  

A: All you have to do is to right click your character's face, press free allocation, then click sequential allocation. In sequential, everyone gets a turn to loot the item.

• Q: Is Fiesta fun?
  

A: It varies per person.

• Q: What is a "GM"?
  

A: It stands for game moderator. The GM's are in charge of in-game issues and events.

• Q: How to become a GM?
  

A: Apply for the job like any other job. There are certain areas you have to have experience in, and you have to work your way up.

• Q: Does GM have infinite money?
  

A: They don't need in-game money.

• Q: Whats the highest amount of money in Teva in GnG?
  

A: There's no telling. Some players are well over 10gem.

• Q: Whats the highest amount of money in Outspark?
  

A: Again, no way to tell. Some think 100 gem is the highest amount obtainable.

• Q: What is a Fiesta Mini-Game?
  

A: There are events, those are the closest to Mini-Game. Some may be implemented later on.

• Q: How to change my house outlook?
  

A: You have to buy the house outlook and press [H] to change the house outlook.

• Q: What is PVP?
  

A: It stands for Player Versus Player. You can pvp in battle zones(there is one for each city), battlegrounds(one for each level group 30+), or guild wars.

• Q: What is a title?
  

A: A title is put in front of your name--it's for fun and to show minor accomplishments in-game. You can change titles by pressing [C] and pressing "Change" and then choosing a title from the list.

• Q: Must a cleric pump int? Must a archer pump full dex? Must a warrior pump full str?
  

A: No, your build is completely up to you. It all depends on what you want effected. Reading up on what each stat does it recommended.

• Q: Why do some monsters have different name color?
  

A: They are ranged from level in comparison to yours. Low<---[Gray~Green~Yellow~Orange~Red]--->High. The lower the level, the less exp you get from them. The higher the more, but killing the highest leveled monster you can does not guarantee the best experience in the end. You only receive 1 exp from monsters that are 30 levels higher than you.

• Q: What is a treasure chest? What is inside?
  

A: A treasure chest is a bonus box in the game, You can find scrolls, mats, enhancement stones, and pets from a chest. They spawn in random areas all over the game world(except in towns).

• Q: How do you get 'Supreme (class)' titles or 'Fiesta Ace' titles/why does a cleric have an Apprentice Archer title (or something of that sort)?
  

A: Those are glitch titles. They are random, and if you got one of those titles, good for you.
