|
The full story of The Legend of Ares can be found off the Introduction tab on the navigation bar to the left. But simply put, Ares, the Greek god of war, hatched a scheme to increase his power by spreading his influence to foreign lands.
In the midst of this plan, another god, Kulam, gathered his people to thwart Ares.
As a result of this heavenly conflict, the people of the continent of Arabic plunge into war. |

How do I enchant my items? |
|
First you'll need to find an item with slots. Slots are indicated by a (1) or (2).
The numbers indicate the number of slots. Enchantments are done using enchantment stones. Locate an accessory merchant in town. Choose to enchant and place the item and stones in the merchants menu. Click "OK" and the item will be enchanted.
WARNING: Enchanting an item with stones will increase the level requirement for that item. |
|
How do I use skills? |
|
Open up skills menu by pressing ctrl and the "S" button.
A skill list tree of all the items available will appear. Drag the skills you wish to place in the hot key bar. Use the corresponding number on the bar to use the skills in the hot key bar. But simply pressing the number will not execute the skill, it will only highlight the skill to use with the right mouse button. |
|
How do I travel to other towns? |
|
To travel to other villages and maps you must locate the Teleporter within the town.
The teleporter will give a variety of choices to travel such as dungeons, towns, and general areas of the map. Traveling to some of the other lands require reaching a certain level. |
|
What does an item with (grace) after its name mean? |
|
An item that has (grace) after its name indicates that the quality is better than that of the same weapon that does not have (grace). Ultimately, the base stats of the item will be higher. |
|
Where do I get quests from and how do I know which ones are available to me? |
|
Most quests are given to the player by the Questor Pippen. When a new quest is available to the player there will be a flashing box with a Q. This is the quest tip box. Check it every time you level and it will give you directions on what quests will be available to you. |
|
How do I increase my base stats? |
|
Base stats can be increased through stat bonuses from magic or enchanted items. |
|
