Mentors

Once the Tutorial is complete, most players receive a ChatMail (CM) from their automatically assigned Mentor. (It is possible, however, to not be assigned a mentor if none of the volunteers [1] are active at the time.)

Your Mentor is there to help. Don't be shy!

Gameplay Basics

  • Know armor bonuses and penalties before you equip them on your character. See Stats --> Items --> Overview. Generally speaking, armor with a larger base will be cheaper to upgrade than those with a smaller base. This seems counter-intuitive, but take it as a given.
  • Do not equip an expensive weapon (one you can sell for a lot of money) on a small character, as your fight rewards will suffer. If your PR increases when you equip the weapon, then it's too big for your current character. Your PR and MPR are viewable at the top of your 'Equip' page.
  • Learn the PR effects of many different armor types. They will vary greatly depending on type and level. If your PR increases too much with an armor piece, save it until you grow bigger.
  • Doing a few things well is usually better than doing many things poorly. If you have 4 minions each with three spells and a skill, you're probably going to get mauled by more focused teams. Instead, it's advisable to give each minion on your team one job, be it casting support spells, defending, or dealing a specific type of damage.
  • Too many minions can significantly increase your healing costs. Stick with one or two for a while first.
  • Use the arrow keys or mousewheel to select your next opponent; you don't need to click on the drop-down itself. Then press enter to fight. You can blow through a lot of fights very quickly this way.

Chat

There is one permanent chat room: Carnage. Feel free to ask questions in general chat or a player/mentor for help.

Please note that as indicated during the signup process, CB is a PG environment (PG is a term used by the American Film Industry which stands for 'Parental Guidance'). This term is used in CB to denote that there should be no foul language or suggestive material in chat or the forums. Chat ops may enforce this by kicking violators out of a chatroom or by banning them from chat entirely.
