Beginner Training Sessions Quest Guide
| Level | Up to 40 (the Magician sessions; other lines are similar) |
|---|---|
| Job | First job of that line (Warrior, Magician, Bowman, Thief, Pirate) |
| Start | The lightbulb over your own character's head |
| Hand in | Your job instructor |
| Repeat | Once per character |
| Rewards | Potions, 10 Return Scrolls and 290 to 840 EXP per session |
Beginner Training Sessions are four short hunting quests that each first-job instructor gives to a freshly advanced adventurer. They are the reason players ask why Grendel the Really Old only talks about advancement: the sessions are not started by clicking the instructor.
How they start
When you meet the requirements, a lightbulb appears over your own character's head (only you see it). Click it to open a list of the quests you can start or hand in. The next session appears in the same way as soon as the last one is handed in. You can also open the instructor's quest menu by clicking the NPC.
Sessions
| Instructor | Session 1 | Session 2 | Session 3 | Last |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dances with Balrog (Warrior), Warriors' Sanctuary | 20 Stumps, 590 EXP | 50 Stumps, 610 EXP | 80 Stumps, 645 EXP | 15 Dark Stumps, 840 EXP |
| Grendel the Really Old (Magician), Magic Library | 8 Slimes, 290 EXP | 20 Slimes, 323 EXP | 35 Slimes, 345 EXP | 10 Dark Stumps, 470 EXP |
| Athena Pierce (Bowman), Bowman Instructional School | 16 Slimes, 590 EXP | 40 Slimes, 610 EXP | 65 Slimes, 645 EXP | 15 Ribbon Pigs, 840 EXP |
| Dark Lord (Thief), Thieves' Hideout | 20 Stumps, 590 EXP | 50 Stumps, 610 EXP | 80 Stumps, 645 EXP | 10 Octopuses, 840 EXP |
| Kyrin (Pirate) | 11 Pigs, 590 EXP | 26 Pigs, 610 EXP | 43 Pigs, 645 EXP | see Kyrin |
Rewards: Red or Orange or White Potions with Blue Potions in each session; the last Warrior, Magician, Bowman and Thief sessions also give 10 Return Scrolls - Nearest Town.
Who Broke the Seal of Marbas?
Grendel also starts Who Broke the Seal of Marbas? from the lightbulb once you hold a Devil Hunter's Necklace. Kill monsters near the Dark Portal (The Tree That Grew III) until a Ripped Paper-5 drops; hand it in for 2,000 EXP. Defeat Faust is a different quest, available after Arwen's Apology.
Common problems
- Grendel only talks about advancement. Click your own lightbulb, or use the quest row in Grendel's menu.
- No lightbulb. You must be in the right job line and below the level cap (40 for the Magician sessions), and finished the previous session.
- Reward not given. Your bag needs free room for the potions.
