Giving Shattered a Try

[Elgrim]

I've been checking through the posts here on some good advice for the best way to get started up in Shattered, but I had some questions I was hoping I could get answered.

- Since Shattered is mostly script hunting, something I'm a novice at, is there a character class that lends itself better to this type of environment? I enjoy rogues but am not opposed to trying something new.

- As the player base is relatively small, is there a town that most people gravitate towards? Obviously I'd like to be able to take advantage of picking/spellup services, especially starting out.

- Are there any recommended threads on assistance with getting a hunting script thrown together?

- Any words of wisdom for someone new that shouldn't be missed?


Thanks in advance all!

The landing and Illy are pretty populated. Well, landing was last time I was there at least, couldn't say for sure if it still is.

Bigshot for hunting. ;bigshot setup will bring up the gui. It's pretty self explanatory, but there are threads on here about it with lots of questions and responses.

Never played Shattered so, take this as a fart in the wind.

As far as I know at least one or more people will give you a free 10M for your first time trying.

I think, like Plat, there are portals between towns that use a simple monthly ticket system. In that sense, you should be able to freely hunt anywhere you want, and choose your base town arbitrarily.

On the note, yeah, there are folks, like me who will give out a 10m note as a welcome to shattered gift to get you started. As for the portal system, you have to have Premium membership to use it I'm pretty sure.
