The Comprehensive Guide To Guarding. [Guide] By Shimus_Darkraven :

atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/ATforum/forums/thread-view.asp

Tips :

As soon as you create a character, join a party for keep you stamina, or create one yourself. After doing that, simply do the quests. just following the quest arrow (It's a orange arrow), or by using auto-move(that is realy amazing).

Stamina tips :

- Every day at 6 a.m. Pacific Daylight Saving Time (PDT), your Stamina score will reset: to 100, for players at Level 50 and below; to 60, for players at Level 51 and above.(you check how much time you have before reset on My info > Character > "Effect")

- Fighting a single battle reduces your Stamina by 1.

- When your Stamina runs out, you will get a realy low Experience Points and the drop rate will be realy low.

- If fighting among a party, the stamina will be shared, every fight only one player will lose stamina, if you are in party with 3 ppls you will lose 1 stamina every 3 fights.

- Stamina is not affected during combat with Guilds or in Nation Dungeons, and therefore players can obtain Experience Points and Items even if their Stamina score is 0.

- A victory in a Free League battle will increase your Stamina by 3.

- Boost your score with a Stamina Pill, obtained from the NPC Pointry located in Rome using Mentor Points.(The stamina pill is

- Don't fight for 10 minutes give you 1 stamina. (You can try auto-craft for wait stamina)

- You can give gifts for begginer you will get 10% of what you give in exp. (Nice for level new mercs) this is limited to 5 staminas for day too. 

- You can share info with (Limited to 5 stamina for day too.)

if you don't like fight in party you can try others ways like free league(Pvp). and try share info, it give stamina but only 5 times per day. and you can send a gift to begginer it give stamina too.

Skill tips :

1 skill point per level. After you get lv60, you can drink "secret vial of potential[beg]"(is like a Growth Vial) up to 30 bottle. if the level cap has been raised to lv120, you can get total 150 skill point, 120 of levels + 30 from vial of potential.

- Skill -

Start as different 2 skills (Max)

1st upgrade - 3 different skills

2nd upgrade - 4 different sklls

3rd upgrade - 5 different skills

Being Mentor

Advantage:
1) 200,000Gold when your apprentice reach lv30. Good way to earn money.
2) You can have multiple apprentice.
3) You get Points for later contents.

Disadvantage:
1) i didn't see one.

Being Apprentice

Advantage:
1) You get good advice if Teacher is nice.
2) You might get support if Teacher is nice.

Disadvantage:
1) He can be a bad mentor and don't help you.

You can't trade the mentor points now, but maybe they will put stamina pills again on npc for trade, just for put a correctly "price". or maybe they will put others items.

Guild

I can't do the guild guide now... later i will do than add.

Guild dungeon

How to access Guild Dungeon:

In order to have an access on guild dungeon is first you need a guild of course, and then your guild must obtain a specific amount of guild points in order for the guild master to exchange your guild points for a key in guild dungeon.

Thread stickied.
Edit: now it really is stickied.

Sticky?

Wha? A game that has limited playtime. (The 100 stamina thing) that's just stupid.

100 battles doesn't sound like much, a few hours and you have to log since you can't do shit till you get more?

I was interested in this game, but if i can't play as much as i want, i don't think i want to play it.

i think you are not really playing the game... its not sputid, you are...

you dont always loose stamina everytime you're in a battle..

everytime you do quests, you gain stamina, everytime you're in a party you gain stamina, everytime you give or share items or info, you gain stamina... stamina increases every ten  minutes, and everytime you win a battle in freeleague you gain stamina points!!! i have tried playing this game for 15 straight hours, and i even caught up stamina reset at 6 am....

Ah, my mistake, seeing as the OP failed to say that, i just read what it said on site. Something about only beeing able to gain stamina from fights, 5 times a day? Or something, and it never said anything about stamina regen, just that you loose 1 stamina fighting, and that it resets back once a day.

i don't think that this game will bore you...yeah you are wrong when you said that this game is not interesting. just try it and you will find out that everything in the game is worth the time, the blood, the tears, and the sleepless night (for leveling up). if you will encounter some problems regarding the number of your stamina, then you should try this...leave your character and PC turned on all night long (or when you are not playing) so when you come back and play, you'll see that your stamina is a lot more than a hundred. hahaha. and there are so many things that you can do in game. you can go craft, you can go bet in the arena betting and you can go participate in the free leagues where you can train youself for future pvp battles. ^^

1 you need try for say it... but you are not limited to 100 stamina... you can get 5 for share info,

2 you can do quests each give like 1 stamina, and some quests is realy fast/easy to do.

3 you can free-league (PvP with random players this is like a event every 2 hours) each win give you 3 stamina points.

4 Don't fight for 10(i realy don't remenber if is 10 or 20...)  minutes give you stamina, you can try craft items for wait and get stamine...

5 You can do party, the stamina will share, if you do party with 3 ppls, you will lose 1 stamina every 3 battles... with this you can do 300 battles for day with 100 stamina.(This is realy nice becouse you get lots of "books of experience" it is realy nice to level new mercs. All mercs get exp, on solo fights the mercs like monk, oracle, get less exp than melees.)

6 You can give gifts for begginer you will get 10% of what you give in exp. (Nice for level new mercs) this is limited to 5 staminas for day too.

i forgot to put about stamina regen my mistake.

just one tip, always do quest and party with it your stamina will never end.
