There are currently four kinds of servers for AdventureQuest Worlds.

2: Moving Around the Land

Almost all areas in AdventureQuest Worlds can be accessed directly or through walking, joined more or less through a continuous environment. The quickest way to travel is through the map, which is located on the right side of the action bar.

Using /goto, /join, or /summon is the quickest way to move around.

Visit AQWorlds Beginners Guide for more information.

2.1: Goto, Join, and Summon

/summon is a command you use to summon a party member. A person must already be in your party to be summoned. If you can see the status bars of your party members on the left side of the screen, you can click their name then select "summon." If they want to be summoned, they'll come to you.

/join takes you to a room. At the bottom right of your screen is the name of your current room. If you type in "/join" and then the room name, you'll got there if the room is not already full.

/goto is a command you use to transport to another player. You use the dialog box at the bottom (the same one for chat). Type in "/goto" and then the player's name. If they're in your area, you'll go to them.

3.2: Class and Armor

Okay, here's something that might be confusing. There are two kinds of armor in AdventureQuest Worlds. The first is called "Class." I've been careful in the previous modules to call this kind of armor "Class Armor." Class determines what kind of class you are, and thus what kind of skills you can use.

The second kind of armor is called "Armor." That's it, it's that simple. This kind of armor is superficial. It's just for looks, like a change of clothes. As of yet, it has not effect on the game.

When you go to purchase class armors, it will be listed "Class (Rank 1)" or whatever your rank in that armor is. The other kind of armor is listed as simply "Armor." Confused yet?

4.1: Pets

There are many pets in AdventureQuest Worlds, none of which fight. A few special pets open quests, like the Vorpal Bunny and Chuckles. Anyone who can see the pet can open the quest. Only members can have pets.

If you have pets turned off in the Option tab you won't be able to see your own pet. When you equip a pet and it is invisible, toggle "Show Pets" on.

4.2: Battle Pets

5: Enhancements

Enhancing items allows players to increase their stats. For the most part, the higher the enhancement level the better the character will be. There are different types to enhancements that focus on certain stats. For example, fighter enhancements focus on strength, rogue enhancements focus on dexterity.

6: Chat, Friends, and Parties

Since AQW is a true MMO, players can chat, form friends list, and create quest parties. Guilds will come later.

You can create a friend's list by clicking on a character's portrait. A small menu will appear with "Add Friend." To invite someone to a party, the menu has an "Invite" option. If you wish to leave a party you have joined, you click on your own portrait and choose "Leave Party."

If you want to be left alone for some soloing the Option button has check-boxes that makes it easy to manage invites. By un-checking party invites or friend invites, you can disable (ignore) those functions. People trying to invite you will get a busy signal.

You can also ignore whispers (private messages) by typing /pmoff in the text box.

10: Potions and Scrolls

Gear up for the game.

Potions and scrolls are special items that can give a player an edge in combat. They have to be equipped before fighting. There are several types, ranging from health potions to lightning scrolls. There are three ways to get potions and scrolls:

• Buy them from Reens who has the biggest collection of potions and scrolls.
• Do Reens' quests which give special potions.
• Dumoose quest rewards in which a player can get a health potion or lightning scroll for one PvP combat trophy.
• Bastet in Oasis has a small collection of food and drink for sale. Water of Life is the best!

See AdventureQuest Worlds Potions and Scrolls for more information about consumables.

Bupers Camel

Tracking the Mystical Beast of Legend.

Bupers Camel is a mysterious and mythical beast that is reputed to live in the Sandsea desert. It is said that catching one will give you any wish. Or, it could be that you have to grant the camel a wish. One or the other. Nobody's really clear on that.

Currently, Bupers Camel can be spotted in a player's imagination or in a really funny hoax. One fun trick is to convince a newbie to go searching for Bupers Camel in Greenguard Forest. Another is to convince a newbie that Artix has been turned into the camel by Cysero by accident and catching it will give you Mod status.
