The main goal of the Cleft of Dimensions is, very simply, to kill monsters to gain levels. This is facilitated by gaining 'experience points' or XPs. After gaining 2000 of them, your character gains a level.

As you gain levels, your character becomes stronger and thus monsters become easier to kill. The easier a monster is, the less XP you gain upon killing it. To counteract this, you need to seek out and kill progressively bigger and nastier monsters.

Gaining a level also allows you to:

  • Use better weapons, armor, and other gear, which enhances your combat abilities AND
  • Learn new skills and spells, which equally enhance your combat abilities

To sum up, you need to gain levels in order to use better items, and get new abilities, which both let you kill more monsters to gain even more levels.

Newbie Guide to Weapons and Armor

This section will teach you where and how to buy weapons and armor for certain levels.

Buying in Bulk: To buy an item in bulk, simply enter the command 'buy #*item.' For example, buy 5*sword will buy you five swords, as long as you have enough money to buy the desired quantity of said item. To buy one at a time, simply type 'buy item'.

Try Before You Buy: Typing 'info item' while in a shop will identify the chosen item out of the shopkeeper's inventory. This is a free service, and is useful for comparing a new item to what you already have.
