Leveling
DarkWind introduces some feaures based on your player level. These thresholds and some of their benefits are described below.
New
Players are considered new until their 6th level, though most guilds will allow membership at level 5.
Champion
To earn the title of Champion, you must attain level 50.
Players that have reached this status will have [CHMP] in
place of their level on the who list.
Several advantages are given to those who attain hero status.
Along with the prestige of being a recognised Champion is the
ability to change their title at will with the ltitle command.
Additionally, your account will be granted a multicharacter slot upon your first character reaching Champion.
Hero
The rank of Hero requires level 100.
Upon reaching level 100, the cooldown for using Cinis to
teleport is reduced to 25 minutes.
Players that have reached this status will have [HERO] in
place of their level on the who list.
Legend
The Legend title requires level 150. You will have [LGND]
in place of your level on the who list.
The benefit to reaching LEGEND is the ability to turn combatbrief damage on.
Epic
The rank of Epic requires level 200. Players will
have [EPIC] in place of their level on the who list.
Players of this rank can remotely buy items on the market without physically being in a market room.
Mythic
The rank of Mythic requires level 250. Players will
have [MYTH] in place of their level on the who list.
As the highest player-attainable level, Mythic is a requirement for some late game content, like particular quests or dungeons.
Additionally, Mythic players can seek out a Shrine of Creation. These shrines are key to how the Remort system works.
Newbification
On Darkwind, we give players the option to newbify their characters should they choose to do so. This entails 'killing' them down to level 1, reducing all stats down to starting values, and resetting a couple other things the character has learned throughout their life. It's merely a quick way for you to start somewhat over, but not quite from scratch.
You will need to find someone to help you accomplish this dasterdly deed though. If you ask around you can probably find such a person willing to help you 'see the light' a little early.
NOTE: Attempting to newbify yourself by repeatedly killing yourself off is against the spirit of the game and is punishable by the Gods of Darkwind.
Real Life Talk: If you are feeling suicidal, please reach out to someone. Depression lies.
