Many players are searching some useful game guides. Many Requiem online players are asking for some Requiem online guides. So here i gather this basic requiem guide for players. Enjoy it:

Fast forward

So, you have your character created and you have entered the game. First thing you should do is talk to any NPC with a yellow "!" above their head. This indicates they have a quest for you, a yellow "?" means that you can finish a part of quest with that npc and a grey "!" means they have a quest for you, but that you are not high enough in levels to accept it yet.

So, your first quests will be to wander around town and talk to the various npcs, and kill a few of them monsters outside of town. Hitting "M" to bring up your map will help a great deal here.

Here is a tip:

At the top of the map are drop down menus that will allow you to bring up more detailed maps of certain locations. This is handy for lets say, the first quest where you are walking around town trying to find the various npcs such as the blacksmith, armor/weapon shop, etc.

At this point, I would also suggest taking a stroll through the options menu in game and fixing up your settings so that everything runs as smoothly as possible for you. Turning up the gamma (since the game seems terribly dark) is a good thing to do, others might want to adjust video / sound options or tinker with the hotkeys so they are better suited to their playstyle.

A few other things you might like to do before rushing off into the world:

-> Plan out your characters skills and dna before hand. You have a limited number of skill points and due to the fact that you must meet certain requirements to learn new skills (ie: a certain skill mastery level), it is wise to plan ahead so you don't end up short changing yourself down the road.

-> Learn to use the rest key (X by default), this will be the casters best friend for quite some time, it will increase your regen rate for mana/hp

-> Alot of people wonder where to get better potions, these can be either found, or purchased via the Ion Mine Reward NPC in the first town you start in.

-> Reinforcing?, Compounding? what do I do?!

a) Reinforcing:

Each item will have a number of "slots" that you can fill with extra abilities / attributes (such as +crit, +str/int/etc, hp/mana, and so on) .. This is what reinforcing is. This is also how you make your weapons glow (I see that asked alot as well hehe).
