1) If I die in the game what do I loose? Only XP? and is thier a different penalty for being killed by a player?

2) If i become a thief can i freely attack any merchants and be able to see thier level once i equip the correct gear?

3) whats to loose if i die from a failed thift attack?

4) the items i gain from thift can only be sold to other players? and how easy to see are they?

Thanks in advance really like this game so far just got myself to 15

1) if a mob kill sou you only loose exp. if your under murder you loose exp, sp, and possibly an item.

2) you can attack merchants over lvl 40 or a trade more than 2*. you can predict there lvl from the thiefs they spawn.

3) you will only loose exp, just like a mob killing you.

4) items stolen from traders can only be sold in thief town so make sure you have bandit den scrolls. they will look like green squares on a red towel.

Thank you ver much but also:
1) Will the item drop be random?
2)I though i could begin attacking at level 20?
3 Why did i read in the guide you need a lot of money to start it seems thiefs have nothing to loose really?
4) how can i obtain these scrolls?

Also 1 last question.

5) can i freely attack any player when i press (alt) do they have a say in it at all? Will the many bots in the game be able to fight back if i start no them? cwould also be easy to kill AFK players?

1.U occasionally do lose items when killed by a mob, not just xp. If ur under murder, the chance of dropping an item increases.
2. If a merchant is under lvl40 and doing a 1* trade, u cannot attack them. If they have 2-5* trade, u can attack them, and if they ae over lvl40, u can attack them.
3. Well u don't have much to lose as a thief but nor do u gain much. Thief is more fun if ur in a thief union and there are active merchant unions in ur server. I guess u need enuf money to be able to thief.
4. I'm pretty sure u buy them from thief town but im not quite sure, haven't been a thief for years lol
5. U can freely attack anyone when u press ALT but u will get a purple status. U name will become pink. Tht means u can be attack/killed by anyone and they won't get a penalty. If u kill someone by pressing out, u'll become a murderer, which means anyone can kill u and u will lose sp, more xp than usual, and u r quite likely to lose an item. Ur name will appear in red and will stay tht will until u die, or kill enuf mobs to reduce ur pk points to 0.
