[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
- Kormir
This route to Chahbek Village is slower, but it it much less perilous. And we can travel to the Sunspear watch post nearby and pick up reinforcements. We'll need to provide some training to the recruits along the way, and I'd like to use you as an example for them. What do you think?
- Accept: "As you wish, Spearmarshal."
- Decline: "Let me reconsider."
When asked about quest: We must be ready for a pitched battle by the time we reach Chahbek Village.
[edit] Intermediate dialogue
- Kormir: Gather 'round, recruits. You're going to see combat sooner than we intended, and there are a few techniques you need to learn. Pay close attention to [Character Name], who will demonstrate these moves for you.
- Kormir: First, to look around, hold down the right mouse button while moving the mouse. Try looking behind you [Character Name], so the recruits can see how it's done. Click on me when you're ready to continue.
- Kormir: You see that weapons locker over there, [Character Name]? Walk over there and retrieve a weapon.
- Kormir: To move around, use the "W,"[sic] "A,"[sic] "S,"[sic] and "D" keys, or click the left mouse button on the spot where you wish to go.
- Kormir: Once you are comfortable moving around, go to the weapons locker and open it by left-clicking.
- On a weapon dropping
- Kormir: Ah! See? There's the weapon from the locker. Go ahead and pick it up. You pick up weapons by left-clicking them. When you pick up an item, it automatically goes into your inventory.
- Kormir: Now let's show them how to equip that weapon. Open your Inventory by clicking the Menu button in the lower left corner of the screen, and selecting Inventory. You can also open your Inventory by pressing the "i" key.
- On equipping a weapon
- Kormir: Very good, [Character Name]! The rest of you recruits, pay attention. This information can save your lives!
- On interacting with Kormir
- Kormir: During your duties as a Sunspear, you may see people with explamation points over their head. This means they have important information to tell you, and may even offer you a quest.
- Kormir: Information about any quest you have accepted will appear in your Quest Log. To view your Quest Log, click on the Menu button and select Quest Log. You can also view it by pressing the "L" key.
- Kormir: The Quest Log contains information about quests you have accepted but not yet completed. This information includes sepecific steps for completing the quest as well as a summary of the quest objectives.
- Kormir: Do you see the green starburst on your Compass? That shows the location of the next step for the quest you currently have selected.
- Koss: You should tell them what happens if their quest goal isn't shown on the Compass.
- Kormir: I was getting to that, Koss. Please don't speak out of turn. As I was about to say, recruits, if the next step is far away a green arrow on the edge of the Compass will point you in the general direction of your goal.
- Kormir: Now that you know the basics we had best get moving. Prepare yourself for battle, recruits. Remember your training, stay calm, and stay close to [Character Name] and Koss if you want to survive.
- On first combat
- Kormir: You may also select an enemy by pressing the "Tab" key to target the nearest foe and then pressing hte "Space" key to attack that for.
- On engaging the first Corsair Spy
- Kormir: A corsair here already? [Character Name], you handle this one. Show us how it's done! Simply left-click the enemy to begin your attack.
- Koss: Why does [Character Name] get to have all the fun?
- At the watchpost
- Koss: The post is deserted! Where have our men gone?
- Kormir: We must assume the worst, Koss. I have another lesson to teach you, recruits. [Character Name], recruits, follow me to the resurrection shrine.
- Kormir: Now that you are prepared for combat, let's proceed. We'll make these corsairs regret the day they challenged the might of the Sunspears!
- Kormir: Take the lead again, [Character Name]. Sunspears, to victory!
[edit] Reward dialogue
- Kormir
You have done a fine job thus far, [Character Name]. I have one last lesson for the recruits before we enter the village.
[edit] Notes
- Dying during the tutorial explanation of the resurrection shrine does not increase the number of deaths you have taken (see /deaths).
- Before talking to Kormir and beginning the tutorial, obtain your weapon from the Weapons Chest and scrape the entire area, which will add 0.5% toward the Elonian Cartographer title (as well as some experience and treasure from killing the Corsairs in the water -- you might have to engage in tactical retreats from the Corsair Medic, who is the same level as you, but who apparently cannot heal). After talking to Kormir and completing the tutorial, you should have a total of 0.8% toward the Elonian Cartographer title.
