Notes From BatMud

Continent:  Desolathya Description: Back story : Member of the Crimson Skull League (Chaos Warriors) are attacking the city As the name implies, this is a burning village. You will periodically take fire damage while in this area so don't idle here, and don't regen inside the area itself. A small area that is good for level 30ish players to make some money and exp.  Mobs drop a lot of equipment that you can sell. Also a major city (Calythien) is right by this area making selling equipment to vendors very easy. Note: There is an entire shadow realm version of this area that is accessible via the shrine The shadow realm is a step up in difficulty but can still be tackled by players level 35-40. Quests: No official quests, but you get some neat flavor text and a belt for saving the village priest. You can then free some shadowy souls from the raiders to get a shadow blade. Equipment: Dark Shadowy Scythe + Cold damage scythe Good for a newbie Reaver. Otherwise sell it. Sells for 14

Introduction: Intended Audience: The goal of this guide is to help new players get started in BatMud. This guide is roughly divided into advice for newbies (levels 1-15) and lowbies (levels 16-30) I'm going to assume that people reading this have some familiarity with other text based MUDs (Multi User Dungeons). I wish there was a good "true new player guide for MUDs" that I could link to here, but I don't know of one. So I feel bad about this assumption, but if I dive down into that level in this guide then I'll never get around to publishing anything. This guide does not take the place of Batmud's official tutorial. I strongly recommend taking the time to run through it when you create a new character. What to Expect and How to Use this Guide: I'm going to make this guide largely spoiler free so if people want to explore and learn on their own they can. That being said, there are many spoiler filled area-guides in this blog! I will link to some of thes
