โšฌ Where should I level?

โšฌ Where is the Job Changer?

  • The Job Changer NPC and other convenience NPCs can be found inside the ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Main Office (opens in a new tab) building in Prontera, just a little to the left of the center of the town.

โšฌ What class to play? Help!

  • Step 2: The character will sit and a timestamp will appear above them (it should follow your computer's clock).
  • Step 3: If you're certain you will delete that character, let it sit for the 24 hours duration. In the mean time, do not click Cancel, and do not log in with that character.
  • Step 4: After 24 hours, you can click Del and you will be prompted to input the "deletion password", which is your account's email. You can view your account email by logging in the website.
  • Step 5: If you changed your mind and do not wish to delete that character, click Cancel. The timestamp will disappear and you will be able to log in with that character as usual.

โšฌ What is LF>, PC>, LFP>, etc?

  • LF: Looking For.
  • LFM: Looking For Members. May be used to recruit party members.
  • LFP: Looking For Party. May be used when you want to join parties. You should also state your Level.
  • WTB: Willing To Buy.
  • PC: Price Check. You should do this in the #trade channel in-game.
  • NONR: No Offer, No Reply. Generally means you should state your price when offering to buy or sell something, and try to haggle with the other person.
  • DPS: Damage per Second. Generally refers to Champion, Biochemist and or Assassin Cross as they are usually the main damage dealers in most parties.
  • R: Recruiting (may be used to recruit party members or guild members).
  • RGM: Recruiting Guild Members.
  • RTG: Ready to Go.
  • This may indicate that the party will start the instance as soon as you join, or they are already inside the instance and you have to hurry and catch up to them. You have to beware of the second one, as some instances give you kill quest and hunting quest of a specific enemy that only appear at certain points of the instance, and you can only claim rewards if you are present when the party kills the enemy. For example, if an OGH party leader or member says their party is RTG, it's a good idea to ask if they're already inside and have killed Root of Corruption. If they've killed it then you won't be able to claim the rewards, and it'd be best for you to join another party.

โšฌ Where should I farm Zeny?

The most common way to farm Zeny is by selling loot from monsters to NPC. Generally, farming is done after having leveled up a bit and have upgraded from starter gears, however there are some maps that allow you to achieve decent money making early in your journey. Below is a list of such maps, their recommended levels and some of the items you're looking for:

โšฌ On Overcharge & Discount

Using the Merchant (opens in a new tab) job class for Overcharge and Discount will help you a lot in maximizing the zeny you obtain from selling loot to NPCs and also reducing costs of consumables. The same Merchant will also have access to the Vending skill, allowing you to sell any valuables you may find to other players in OriginRO's Market (Prontera).

  • Using the player command ๐Ÿ’ฐ @autotrade (opens in a new tab) (@at) while using Vending will log you out of the character, but keep your Vending Shop online. Keep in mind you won't be able to use another character on the same account while autotrading.

Some seemingly "trash" loot may still be useful, whether it's for a quest, for crafting and brewing, or used as skill catalysts. You can make a quick buck stocking up these materials and selling them to other players. You can use the command ๐Ÿ›๏ธ @whobuy (opens in a new tab) or (@wb) in-game to see if anyone is buying an item.

โšฌ What is and how do I open a buying shop?

โšฌ How do I get X or Y equipment?

There are numerous equipment available in the game and various ways of obtaining them. For beginners, you can check out the ๐Ÿซ Eden Group (opens in a new tab) page.

๐ŸŒŸ Talk to Instructor Boya when you reach Base Level 12
to start the Eden Group Equipment Beginner Equipment Quests (opens in a new tab).

Eden Instructor Boya

The Eden Group Equipment Quests provide an exceptional starting point for adventurers at Base Level 12 and above. These quests reward players with free, durable equipment sets that can carry them all the way to level 99. Whatโ€™s more, these early starter gear pieces can be enchanted with bonus stats, allowing players to further enhance their performance and tailor their build to their playstyle. This makes them an invaluable resource for new players looking to gain a competitive edge.

โšฌ Is there an item or monster database?

Through the commands ๐Ÿ“ @iteminfo (opens in a new tab) (@ii or @ii2) and ๐Ÿ‘พ @mobinfo (opens in a new tab) (@mi), you can access both item and monster information in-game. The ๐Ÿช OriginRO Market (opens in a new tab) also has item descriptions, as well as market listings.

  • Other popular outside sources are:

๐Ÿ’ซ Divine Pride (opens in a new tab):

  • Provides a lot of general information and more about gears, cards, skills and monsters. Divine Pride is an independent, server-agnostic database, and not all information will apply directly to OriginRO.

๐Ÿ“Œ iRO Wiki (opens in a new tab):

  • Although tailored for iRO, it can still provide quest guides and skill information for some legacy content.

โšฌ What is a homunculus? Why mine doesn't work?

๐Ÿง Common Questions

In all support request cases, please be truthful in all your correspondence with a Game Master. Hiding details will not only hinder resolving the issue, but may also result in punishment.

โšฌ I accidentally dropped or sold the wrong items to NPC, can GM refund me?

  • Yes, if the item was not picked up by another player. If you are not sure, please open a support ticket. Notice that we will only do this once, as we have protections in place against item dropping. Remember to keep all your valuables in your Favourites tab and lock it from NPC selling.

โšฌ I lent my items and the player refuses to give them back. Can GM help me?

  • If you have proof that the item was to be borrowed, you may open a player report for scamming. Note that your item will be deleted, as GMs will not refund or return any items lost due to player mistakes.

โšฌ Someone logged onto my account and stole my gear. Can GM help me?

  • No. Account sharing is not encouraged for a reason and what happens to your account is your responsibility. Please keep your passwords secure and change your passwords at regular intervals.

โšฌ I missed a 0 when I set up my vending shop and sold my item under-priced, can I get a refund?

  • No. GMs will not refund player-to-player vending transactions, as this would be unfair to the person who bought the item.

โšฌ I accidentally refined or enchanted an item and it broke. Can GM refund me or roll back the item?

  • No. We are unable to offer any support for item losses that transpired due to failed or incorrect refine and enchantment attempts.

โšฌ I am stuck in an instance and can't use any skills. Help!

  • Try relogging. If the problem still persists, please message a GM online.

โšฌ I cannot add skill points to my character!

  • Remove all your equipped items (including ones from the costume tab), and type @clearcostume to remove any costume effects. You should be able to add skill points after that.

โšฌ I purchased Gem Points but did not receive them.

  • Please submit a support ticket and a staff member will sort it out with you. Make sure to include the payment method, your email, date, and amount purchased in the ticket to speed up handling time.

โšฌ I forgot my account ID, can you recover it for me?

  • Submit a ๐ŸŽซ Support Ticket (opens in a new tab) on our Discord and we will send you the account ID to the email that is registered on the account. If you no longer have access to the email registered on the account or if the email is fake, you will not be able to recover the account ID.

โšฌ I found a bug! Where do I report it?

  • Please make a post in the ๐Ÿ› Bug Report (opens in a new tab) section, with as many details as possible. If you are able to, include screenshots or recordings, and describe what was done to trigger the bug, what the expected behavior was, et cetera. Include as many details as possible.

โšฌ I found a bot! Where do I report it?

  • Report your findings privately to a GM in-game or ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€โœˆ๏ธ Discord (opens in a new tab). Provide as many details as possible. You do not need to know a player name to report a suspect. At its simplest, a map name will do, however we will of course appreciate such details as a player name, class, or skills used.

โšฌ Someone is harassing me and won't leave me alone! What can I do?

  • If you find that one of our server rules was broken, please make a post in the player reports section of the
    ๐Ÿ’ฌ Discord (opens in a new tab). Include screenshots or recordings and what the reported player was doing (e.g. scamming, griefing, using offensive language) will all help. As well, you may use /ex player to block them from messaging you.

๐Ÿšจ How to report rule breakers?

Please use the following section to provide us with better reports. Quite often, we cannot punish a player because we are lacking information.

โšฌ Using the Replay Feature

This is by far the easiest method to report offending players. While in-game, follow these steps to open the recording feature:

1. Click on the Replay button from the status bar. 1.png 2. Start the replay, give it a name and press Start. 2.png 3.png 3. When you are finished recording, press Stop. 4.png 4. Open your RO folder, go in the Replay folder and upload the file on the ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€โœˆ๏ธ Discord (opens in a new tab) or send it directly to a GM if requested.

โšฌ Take Screenshots

  • Take as many screenshots as necessary and upload them on the Discord.
    We recommend using ๐Ÿ”— Imgur (opens in a new tab) to host the images.
  • In your screenshots, please show us that you've tried to talk with the problematic players and attempted to solve the issue by yourself first.

โšฌ Use the Discord

Avoid requesting GM assistance for rule breaking reports. We prefer that you use the ๐Ÿ’ฌ Discord (opens in a new tab) to report such issues as it is easier for us to see the evidence you've collected.

๐Ÿ“˜ Scam-Proof Guide

At OriginRO, we prioritize creating a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for everyone. Scamming is strictly forbidden and can lead to severe consequences, including a permanent ban. However, it's essential for all players to stay vigilant and protect themselves from potential scams. Hereโ€™s a quick guide to help you stay scam-proof.

โšฌ 1. Be Skeptical of Too-Good-to-Be-True Deals

  • If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Scammers often lure players with unrealistically low prices for items or Zeny. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the in-game economy to recognize when something is off.

โšฌ 2. Use Secure Trade Methods

  • Always use the in-game trade window for transactions. Avoid dropping items on the ground or using unsecured methods of trading. Remember, Real Money Transactions (RMT) are strictly prohibited, and engaging in them can result in severe penalties.

โšฌ 3. Double-Check Trade Windows

  • Before confirming any trade, carefully review all items and amounts in the trade window. Scammers often try to swap or alter items at the last moment. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 4. Guard Your Account Information

  • Your account is your responsibility. Never share your password or personal details with anyone, not even with people claiming to be GMs. Official GMs will never ask for your password. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 5. Identify Fake Game Masters

  • Scammers may pretend to be GMs to trick players. Real GMs will have a special tag next to their names and will never ask for your account details or items. If youโ€™re ever unsure, verify through our official Discord or other trusted channels. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 6. Stay Informed About Common Scams

  • Knowledge is power. Join our Discord and stay updated on the latest scams and tactics used by scammers. The more you know, the better you can protect yourself. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 7. Check for Fake Websites

  • Beware of fraudulent websites offering free items or Zeny. Only use the official Origin-RO website for account management, purchases, and donations. If someone sends you to a third-party site, it's likely a scam. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 8. Watch Out for Begging Scams

  • Some scammers pose as new players in need of help, asking for free items or Zeny. While itโ€™s great to help newcomers, be cautious to avoid falling for a scam. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 9. Avoid Trust Trading

  • Never give away items or Zeny on the promise of getting something better in return. Scammers often ask you to trust them with your items, but you may never see them again. ๏ปฟ

โšฌ 10. Report Suspicious Behavior

  • If you spot a scammer or encounter suspicious activity, report it immediately to our staff team by opening a ๐ŸŽซ Support Ticket๏ปฟ (opens in a new tab) on our ๐Ÿ’ฌ Discord (opens in a new tab). Your vigilance helps keep the community safe. Provide as much information as possible, such as screenshots, chat logs, and the date and time of the incident.

By following these tips, you can significantly reduce your risk of falling victim to scams. Stay alert, use secure trade methods, and never share your personal information. Let's work together to keep our gaming community safe and enjoyable for everyone.
