Welcome to Gaia! ::

This thread's intent is to raise the overall quality of our members.
We accomplish this through cooperation and trust.

The Buddy System is a time tested concept, the timid and inexperienced, looked after and protected by the Strong and capable. Over time the timid come into their own and grow into the people they were meant to be.

Things to look for:
1.Classes
-Healer
-Striker
-Caster
-Buff
2. People looking for help
3. People willing to help
4. Things to be prepared for
- Area Difficulty
5. Important Items
-Quest Specific Kills
-Monster Drops
-Gaia "Layers"
6. Questions and comments

2. People who need/want help.

This section is possibly the most important of this thread. It has a running list of Gaians who need help getting started, who are having trouble with things in the world of zOMG, or simply people who want a little more support for a quest.

When signing up for Help Needed, supply your name, What Class best fits you, and the Level (Village Greens, Bills Ranch Ect) where you need help. Please be sure to check the "Willing to help" section below before applying here.

4.Things to be prepared for:

Area difficulty: Every world has it's own difficulty rating, once you feel comfortable in an area, feel free to venture further into the world of zOMG, but the further you go the more challenging the creatures become. Even if you can take on one group of monsters by yourself the next group might be more then you can handle, so getting a buddy that has experienced it might be a good idea to start a new area until you know what you're going up against.

Area Difficulty Cont. : The Deadman's Pass gets more and more difficult the further you go, when you reach the end (The gate) swarms of OMG will come from the bottom of the page. If at any point your entire party is wiped out, leave one person at the gate so your party does not need to defeat the monsters over again. As long as one person stays in the cave and next to the gate you won't have to face them again.

5. Important Items:

Quest specific kills: When you form a Crew, whatever ANYONE kills counts towards you too. If you need to kill a specific thing and someone else lands the final blow, YOU still get credit for it as long as you effected it in some way, including buffing others, hit the monster, or debuffing the monser.

Monster drops: In a crew, everyone has the maximum chance, of every drop that any monster killed could drop. However, if you are a higher level (CL) then everything you fight, then the chances of getting drops is drastically reduced. A simple way to reduce your CL is to remove unused rings, very helpful when using rings that can kill in one hit.

Layers of Gaia, when you join a server the minimap will show you where your friends are with a blue dot, however it is possible that you won't be able to see them because they are on a different layer of that server. It can be frustrating because the invite system is still being improved, but if you manage to find your buddy in the reCrewt button they will "Flip" to your layer. The other method that works is to be by the Null Crystal, don't know why but if you enter then exit the crystal you sometimes shift layers, and eventually you'll find your friend (If they are also near the crystal).

Now that my thoughts are now out in the open...

This thread is now open!

I'll start the ball rolling by enlisting myself as "Willing to Help"

ELCIA! *Flying-huggle-glomp* Guess who. ^_^

I'll put you up right away. ^_^ But I have to know where you can take things on yourself.

Nice avi, looks like you fit right in Zen Gardens. ^_^

I'll put you up. ^_^

That's true. I didn't know that at the time of making this thread. ^_^

Also... I can defeat OMGWTF now! ^_^ As long as I have my buffs on and a couple people healing. ^_^

Edit: I tweeked some of the Important Items, and my level of help. ^_^

You'll have to be about CL:5 with mostly range and healing. seems it's the only way to take on WTF
