I'm just the nice guy from your neighborhood (DS). Sorry, I'm missing out on the usual welcome fruit cake. But the thing is it is like super hot in Germany ( whole Europe actually) and to be completely honest I'm actually hating those fruit cakes. So no fruit cake from me.
Hi to all
Why I'm posting in here and not in the DS section you ask?
Oh that is quite simple, I'm trying out ROSE since a few days now....secretly. Well, not so secret anymore I guess...from now on...
The facts are, I'm a bloody newbie. I never touched this game at all before. I do play DS - I love it. This won't change, cause this game means a lot to me. But that doesn't mean that I can't enjoy another game and have the same fun with it. And to be brutally honest, out of all the games WP does offer I chose ROSE to be the second WP game I play (enjoy so far actually).
Back on topic, I'm totally lost on a few things I encountered so far. I do have some experiences with some other, let's call them "big" mmorpgs. But none of them had pure mouse movement control so far. I do play adventure games from time to time, so I'm okay with the "click and move to" movement. Even though I often find myself touching the "w/arrow up key" to move - it's not working of course. DS movement is completely keyboard key based, the mouse is just for clicking menu things. Which makes it even a bit harder. However I'm willing to get myself adjusted to mouse only movement.
Actually the mouse moving part is something my first question is about.
Is there a way to make the mouse move a bit slower, especially when turning around?
It's extremely fast when I turn the camera around the moment I want to change my direction. Like I move it a tiny bit and the char in game thinks it is time to visit Australia. I looked up the in game game settings, even the ones in the patcher. But I wasn't able to find anything. Maybe I'm just stupid. So I thought I go and ask the ones (you) that actually have some knowledge about the game.
My second question is regarding in game mounts.
Is there a way to "feed" them with some sort of pet food, so they can have a long and happy life?
Please have a look at my ava picture. It shows my main DS char and his best buddy. As you can see it is a Drake. This is the mount I have in DS. I farmed him myself in the game (running a dungeon over and over and over till the boss dropped the rare pet egg). This means I have "Darki" (his name I chose for him) with me since he was a little egg. I got him through all the 3 mount stages ( mounts in DS "grow" kinda - not look wise but ability wise) and everywhere this char goes in the game, Darki follows.
I'm asking because DS has so called "pet food".That adds 1, 10, or 30 days to the lifespan of a pet.
I got this nice bug creature mount from a quest and actually like it. I would love to choose it to be the "lifetime" companion for this char. This is why I'm asking.
Edit: nice beginning so far, forum killed half of my post XD
have to write it again. Please give me some more time.
Edit with the missing text follows:
Where is the "city of Zant" located?
I have a really hard time getting used to the map. It is very tiny and the world map is not very helpful. Yes, there is Zant written on it, I saw it. But I still don't know in which direction I have to go.
Is there maybe a zoom in function for the world map too, that I missed?
Does the quest in the quest book show me somehow when it is finished?
I killed a lot of pumpkins, too many I guess. Before I actually noticed the big yellow "?" on the map.
One of them killed nearly me btw. But I managed it to run out of his aggro range before it could do so.
Tried my luck on other pumpkins and it was fine.
Is there an indicator on the strength a monster is?
(Like do not touch this, it will kill you)
Is there an indicator to know if a monster is aggro, neutral, or friendly?
(Like: do not come close it or it will start fighting/ it will only fight if you attack it first/ it is just a nice fellow running around)
Is there some sort of an "open market" / "auction house" in this game?
Basically a place to sell stuff to others, or to buy stuff from others. I really enjoy doing that. I mean, really.
Are we allowed to have a free user shop to sell some things to others?
I do play the gun type class and got myself a little gun, plus two active gun skills so far. Plus a little buff, class buff I guess. I got a question regarding fighting things. The class says it can attack things from far, but so far all the things I attacked from far keep running towards me. Is there a nice fast way to get my char a little more far away from those things again?
Generally any hints/tips regarding fighting would be greatly appreciated and very helpful.
Yes, I have to agree fighting things in this game is tough. I actually didn't have expected it being that tough. But I'm used to "die" in games sometimes. I really enjoy playing ROSE so far. I love all the quests and things to do. Even though yes, the quest rewards of many quests aren't that great. But still, I enjoy doing them.
DS will ever be my homebase, nothing is gonna change that. But ROSE is really fun to play too. I will for sure continue playing it as long as I have fun doing so - I hope this will be a loooong time.
And I for myself take the tough leveling and fighting as a challenge.
I thank you for your time reading this and for helping me.
