Getting Started

## Information

**Rucoy Online** is a game based on training your **Base Level** and increasing your **Skills**. When starting out, **Rucoy** can be extremely difficult. It takes time to understand the entire concept, but in time you will learn and appreciate it. You can choose between 3 classes. Melee, Magic, and Distance. You can also train all of them as you can switch back and forth between them. A smart strategy is to pick 2 to train. They all have certain advantages. The melee has extra defense and its special attacks everything within a 1 square radius of you. The Magic can hit anywhere on the screen that isn't around a corner using its special. Distance can shoot up to 3 targets within 5 or 6 squares of you. It is recommended to pick melee and one other o train until you get to a high enough lvl. Magic is the most expensive to train as you constantly have to buy potions to restock your mana. However all special attacks use Mana. But Magic's normal attacks also use it. Distance is the next most expensive as you have to buy arrows although they aren't expensive. Melee cost's nothing to train as all you need is a sword. Do not let yourself be scammed.

## Making a Rucoy Character/Additional Character's

To make a character, you should download **Rucoy Online** from:

Follow the instructions. Once created, you will be logged in to the game. The option to name your character will pop up during the start of **Rucoy**. After naming your character, you will be free to explore and begin your adventure on **Rucoy Online**.

**Rucoy Online** gives you the option to make multiple characters. To do so, click the **OPTIONS MENU** which is located on the top-right hand corner of your game display. Once in the options, locate the **ACCOUNT** tab. In the **ACCOUNT** tab, click on the **CHANGE CHARACTER** button. This will start the setup for your new account.

## How to Play

### **Base Level**

**Rucoy Online** allows the player to choose his/her own path. First off, your **Base Level** is the level that every player can see and will appear above the player's character, to the right of your name or in the **OPTIONS MENU** under the **STATS** tab. To increase your **Base Level**, you must get confirmed kills which give you a certain amount of experience based on the monster you are fighting. For example, if you kill a Level 1 Rat, you will gain 1 Experience that will be put towards your **Base Level**. Experience is only given when you completely kill an enemy.

Experience gain formula: exp= lvl^(3+lvl/1000) shout-out to Master Milky for his help.

**NOTE:** **Rucoy Online** has a special stat leveling system where your Base level and skill levels are trained somewhat separately. Depending on your base level some monsters can be trained with lower stat skills. For example if your level is over 200 you can most likely train with at mummy at skill level 20. But if you are level 200 you will need at least skill level 66.

### **Leveling**

As in most hack and slash games you will gain levels as you kill monsters while exploring.

These levels provide access to better gear, increased max health, increased max mana and increase movement speed.

To level, simply kill the highest level monster that you can, try to hit without wasting too many resources on it.

If you are using melee, kill whatever the highest level monster is that won't kill you after a few mobs, wasting HP potions is a great example.

If you are using distance or magic, kill the monsters while keep some distance from the monster, so you will not get hit and will save some HP potions.

**Skills**

Your **Skills** can be found in the **OPTIONS MENU** under the **STATS** tab. Here, you will be able to find your **Base Level** and all your **Skills**. **Skills** include, Melee, Distance, Magic and Defense. To increase your **Skills** the most efficient way possible, you must obtain one of the three Training Weapons. Unlike your **Base Level**, increasing your **Skill** is done by the number of ticks you hit on a monster, not by killing them. For example, by not using one of the Training Weapons and using a regular weapon, you will deal more damage and kill a monster in less ticks therefore not increasing your **Skill/Skills** as fast as the Training Weapons allow. You will find that a Training Dagger is used for training your **Melee Skill**. The Training Bow is for training your **Distance Skill** and the Training Wand is for training your **Magic Skill**. You can find all three Training Weapons being sold for 1,000,Gold each at the Gear Merchant Vendor in Town.

**NOTE:** Defense increases each time you get hit by an enemy and through every **Skill**. Example: By using the Melee Skill, your Defense will increase every time you get hit. The same goes for the Distance Skill and Magic Skill.

**NOTE:** In order for your skills to increase, it is necessary for your character to deal at least 1 hit point of damage to the targeted monster every few seconds. Otherwise, the skill meter for both your attack and defense skills will not increase.

**NOTE:** This only applies to Training Weapons any weapon above training weapons have no exhaust.

There is a limit to how long you are able to train on a single monster. After the limit is reached, you will be notified in red text that: **"This monster is exhausted, and no longer provides skill experience."**. This is designed to encourage players to remain online while training their skills, requiring them to switch targets every once in a while. You will have to wait 20 minutes for this timer to end.

**NOTE:** Your Experience, HP/Health-Points, Mana and Speed will be increased alongside your Base Level.

### **Where Should I Begin?**

After character creation, you will spawn into the world of **Rucoy** and find yourself at the Newbie Forest dock. From the dock, you will want to follow the path East passed the Level 1 Rat's. Once you see the Sewer stairs, you can either choose to explore and continue your training or you can continue East to come across the Town. The Town is the main capital of **Rucoy Online**. Here, you will find all the Vendors including, the Supplies Merchant, Gear Merchant and the Vault Merchant. Here you can buy and sell items that you obtain along the way. The Town is also where you can find many players. They might be there to re-supply, converse or even buy and sell items to other players via trading which you start by clicking on the player and looking through their store. To sell your own items, you can click on yourself and add items to your player-owned store. NA1, known as North America 1 is a server in which most players go to trade other players. From the Town you will want to follow the road West, the way you came to level up and be strong enough for the path East of Town (Unless you are strong enough already), which will lead you to the Field, Wolf Cave, or the Goblin City. After you obtain a Base Level of at least 6 from the Newbie Forest or from Level 3 Grey Rat's in the Sewer you can now follow the path East of Town to the Field where you will come across Level 6 Crow's. Here, you will be able to train and eventually move on to the Desert which holds Level 12 Scorpion's, Level 13 Cobra's and Level 14 Worm's. The Goblin City will not be an option until around a **Base Level** of 15. Do not bother following the path North of Town until you have a **Base Level** of at least 45 or so because here you will find the Assassin Maze which is home to Level 45 Assassin's and Level 50 Yellow Assassin's. The Assassin Maze leads to the rest of the **Rucoy** Overworld and gives the player access to the Graveyard, Skeleton Dungeon, Vampire Dungeon, Drow City and much more. (WILL BE UPDATED SOON) soon?

### **KILL- STEALING**

Kill-stealing is frowned upon in Rucoy Online.

It can be annoying when it takes hours to train skills and a new player who doesn't understand game mechanics comes along and kills your surrounding mobs. Thus, boosting your xp and killing your skill grind.

Also, don't pick up other players drops. If you didn't earn it, don't touch it unless told otherwise.

Some people like to help newbies and pass down drops, that's different.

### **Death**

On **Death**, a player will lose a percentage of his/her Base Level EXP depending on their Base Level. Once the player dies, their character will re-spawn in the North-East building in Town. They will also lose some skill level if they were killed by something other than another player. In PvP if you die you will lose gold, and if you attack an innocent person you will gain a skull which will make people inclined to want to kill you. This skull can go away if you wait out the timer. I should also tell you PVP is only in certain areas past the Assassin's maze.

## How Do I Make Money in Rucoy Online?

### **Gold**

There are three major ways to earn gold in Rucoy, those being defeating monsters, selling item drops to the Gear Merchant, and putting items in your store which can be found by tapping on the player character and pressing "add items". The Gear Merchant is the most reliable, due to it always being flat prices.

### **Diamonds**

**Rucoy Online** gives the player the option to purchase Diamonds with real world money or from other players in-game.A one-time purchase of Diamonds will grant you a blue name and will mark you as a Donator/Premium Member.

**NOTE: You can check to see how much Gold or Diamonds you are carrying by clicking on the OPTIONS MENU and looking in the STATS tab. Under your Speed, you will find your Gold amount.**

## What Happens if I Run Out of Inventory Space?

A simple solution to running out of inventory space is to make your way to the Vault Merchant. The Vault Merchant is located in the southeast building of the town area, and provides a bank which you can store items in.

### **Character Customization**

Rucoy Online gives the player the option to customize their character armor and color. Each player starts with the basic armor design, but still has the option to change colors. To change the color of your armor, simply go to the OPTIONS MENU and click on the CUSTOMIZATION tab. Here, you will be able to choose your 4 main armor colors. The only way to change your armor look in Rucoy is, you must buy diamonds on the SHOP tab in the OPTIONS MENU or from other players in the game to spend them on different pieces. You have the option to customize each class you use. For example, melee ability has actual armor skin opposed to the Distance Skill, which is archer skin clothing. The last being the Mage Skill in which you can choose from different robes/wizard skin styles.

### **Servers**

NOTE: You can switch servers by clicking on the **OPTIONS MENU** and choosing one of the 14 choices in the **SERVERS** tab - This will instantly switch servers.

**Shop**

NOTE: Each Piece is sold separately for Diamond's.

## Teams

A **Team** is a group of players in **Rucoy Online** that are used to benefit each other through training or by helping during PvP. In order to start a **Team**, you will begin with inviting other players. To do so, simply click on the player that you want to invite and click the "Invite to team" option. This will initiate a **Team** invitation request.-You can also use the "Reject Invite" option if you decide not to join the **Team**.

I just wanted to make a few guidelines for editing articles.

1. Please don't make edits that are useless, such as adding naive or irrelevant information. It's annoying.
2. Try to use grammar and spelling to the best of your ability. While I know that everyone that may be editing this wikia isn't the best at spelling or grammar, please try to make as few mistakes as possible.
