Your first day

The game is built so a couple of minutes at a time always moves you forward. A good day looks like this.

Keep a trip going

You have one trip at a time, gathering or Slayer. Short trips suit a quick check-in, long ones (up to 8 hours) suit work or sleep. Gathering brings back ore, fish, logs or herbs; your tool and your level decide how much.

Craft while you're away

Crafting carries on alongside trips. Smelt ore into bars, make better tools (they gather more), weapons and armour, and cook food. Small things are instant; gear takes a little while in a crafting slot. Everything you can make is on Recipes.

Slay for parts and gold

Slayer tasks send you after monsters. Pack food, and take a supply pack if you have one: it carries more food and some potions, makes kills faster and brings all the loot home. Monster parts go into the next tier's gear. Finished tasks earn Slayer points for unlocks.

Now and then a rare creature follows you home from a Slayer trip. Fight it for a chance at a tool or ring nobody can craft: see Fights.

Hit the daily boss

A boss arrives at midday New Zealand time every day, fought by the whole server together. A few turns from you each day add up, and dealing 5% of its HP earns a chest when it falls.

Daily challenges and more

Challenges give you a few small goals a day, with rewards, and the server works on one goal together each week.
Treasure maps from the shop send you on a trip for a chest.
