Starter guide

**Official AvalonRSPS Starter Guide:**

* Click the provided link to download the client.
* Once downloaded double click "Avalon Client" and it will start to automatically load the cache.

### Creating your account

* Once the client is loaded you will see a blank username and password screen.

* Simply enter the username you wish to use along with a password that has **NOT** been used on another server.
* If the username is available you will be asked to enter in a CAPTCHA combination of letters/numbers.
* If the username is not available it will inform you that the username/password combination you have entered is invalid.

### Setting up your account for the first time

* Once you have successfully completed the CAPTCHA. You will land on a screen where it asks you to select your account type.

#### Normal Account

* Creating a normal account is just that. An account that has no restrictions on trading, looting, boss fights, global fights, etc. You will have full access to the bank, shops, donator zones and all of their benefits. Normal XP and drop rate are awarded with this account type as well.

#### Ironman Account

* Creating an ironman account provides more of a challenge with more restrictions than a normal account. You are not able to trade other players, use certain shops, or stake. You also will not get a NPC drop if you did not solo it. A 10% drop rate is awarded as a permanent boost to this account type.

#### Ultimate Ironman Account

* Creating an ultimate ironman account provides the largest challenge in all of Avalon. The same rules of an ironman account apply, but you CANNOT use banks. That means you are stuck with your inventory, the currency pouch, and 28 slots in your "collection" bank. Use them wisely. As does the ironman account, this account type also gets a permanent 10% drop rate boost.

#### Group Ironman Account

* Creating a group ironman account is a very fun game mode. The same rules apply as an ironman but you can have a group of five (including yourself) to "team up with". This means you can trade the members of your group, share a bank with them, and even team kill bosses/NPCs/ and get loot. This game mode has the normal XP and boost, as you have four other team mates that you can work with to get drops.

#### Veteran Account

* Creating a veteran account is probably one of the more challenging grinds the game has to offer. You have no restrictions just like a normal account however, your XP is cut in approximately half. It will be more of a grind to level up but you do get a 15% boost to your drop rate, making it the highest for an account in the server

### Unique things you will see across the server

##### Prestige System

* We have adapted and implemented a prestige system similar to the ones you see in Call of Duty! Each season your stats will be reset and you can grind your way back to max to unlock new emblems and account bonuses!

##### Card Packs

* Have you ever played Fifa, Madden, or The Show and liked the idea of opening card packs to get a head start in the game with a chance at better items? Do you like opening Pokemon, Yuigoh, or actual Sports card packs? We have your fix. Each costing a different amount with different tiered rewards these card packs can accelerate your gains and grinds by providing cash, gear, and many other benefits. You can find them here: https://avalon317.com/store/

##### Celestial Zone

* The Celestial Zone opens for an hour every four hours. Inside you will find NPC's that you can kill for Celestial Energy, which is a resource needed to craft Celestial Gear. You can find out more about the gear you can craft on the Item Stats wiki page.
