Basics and tutorials

## **Installation**

Installing the game is easy. You can go to https://jianghu.163.com/ and download the game directly from there. You used to be able to pick the game from Google Play Store/App Store by searching through Netease’s game gallery or by looking up **一梦江湖**. Because of the app migration, you will only be able to download the game from the official mainland app. If you are still playing the Google/Apple version of the game and you need to switch over, you can follow our guide here. You will have to sign up for a Netease account, QQ account, or Weibo account to bind the game to. The game is rather large, so be sure that you have a lot of space for it on your device (You can also play it on an emulator like LDPlayer or Memu!)

Once installed and you make it to the landing page, press the Server name to change your server if you need to.

Once you’ve changed servers to the correct one and downloaded the extra packs, enter the game, select your class, and create your character!

> **WARNING, due to China's stricter anti-gaming addiction laws regarding ID verification in 2021, oversea users who have used a false ID may get locked out of their account.** If you wish to play on the mainland app, but you do not have a QQ, Weibo, Netease, a legitimate mainland or passport ID, or any other Chinese Email provider account, you will have to restart your game under a guest account and have your game time restricted. If you wish to attempt to verify your account, you can follow this Verification Tutorial.

## Gameplay basics (tutorial)

When you finish watching the beginning scene, the game will show you how to move, which the control wheel is at the bottom left corner of the screen. It will also show you the on-screen prompts, which look like a hand icon in the middle of the right side of the screen. Sometimes the pop-up will change to different icons, but they will always be roughly at the same spot.

When getting to do your quests, you can auto-navigate if you press on the quest on the tab to your left. You also have three different tabs for quests: Main, Secondary, and Tertiary. Main quests titles are yellow, secondary quests are titles light blue, and tertiary quests are titles a light green color.

For attacking, the big icon of your class’ weapon can be shown on the bottom left. Once you tap the large weapon icon, your skills will appear as well as the rest of the interface for battle.

Your base attack is the large weapon icon, the four circles in front of that icon are your skills (Which can be swiped upwards or downwards to reveal the second wheel of skill). The icon with the boot is your jump (On that same icon, the bars below it is your stamina bar which will deplete whenever you dash or jump), the icon of the man running is dash/jog toggle.  When you jump while being in combat mode, you also can do one extra special attack or you can drop down forcefully.

When you get a new item, and it’s better than the current gear that you have on, a pop up will appear showing you that new item. You can press the grey button to equip it.

At the end of the Tutorial, you will be given several quick time events before it is complete. From there, you will be introduced to your class story, which will start you off from the beginning. You will have to build yourself up.
