Newbie sectionHow can I see other Players and Guilds?To see other players you’ll have to add them to your friends list, You will get a notification every time they come online, and will be able to see their location on the map. The in-game chat is a good place to start to get to know other players and find about their guilds. There currently is no way to find information about all of the guilds existing on a server. However, some of them might advertise themselves in the guild section of the forum.
How can I add someone to my friends list?The social menu (shortcut S) will allow you to add somebody to your friends list. Switch to the “Invitations” tab and click the “Add” button. A pop up window will appear asking for the name of the player you want to add.
What are achievements?Therian Saga is a game without specific goals, you tend to make your own story and your own destination as you play. However if you are looking for specific tasks, then you can look at the Achievements. Think of the achievements as a badge you get for completing certain tasks. They are also good tips about what you haven't found/collected yet!
How do I gain enthusiasm again?You cannot gain enthusiasm again. It's only a bonus when you leave Hope Island that only last for 24 hours. But do not worry, starting with 1 blue crown, you can accelerate the time by 20 minutes whenever you need.
I've run out of money, what should I do?Getting money isn't that hard. If you have brought some Blue Crowns then sell that on the auction house for some quick gold. Otherwise, there are various tasks that give you a healthy amount of silver, the most basic is in Craneharbour where you can work for the Falconers to get 25 silver quickly once every 22 hours. There are some more with smaller cooldowns that you will unlock while improving your trades skills. Otherwise, your various trades will always produce resources and items that can be sold for a pretty penny.
I have a guide (companion), but I need another one, why can't I have both at the same time? How/Where can I leave unwanted companions?You can only have as many companions as your Authority allows. Your authority increases as your leadership increases. To leave behind unwanted companions (never sell them) go to a house of yours (that you made with a concession) and once you are in that location, deposit them there by separating from them.
How can I get more companions if I've already used all of my authority/control?Usually you do not get rid of your companions (unless it has no interest at all for you) but instead you can get your authority/control back by leaving them in your concession. To increase the maximum control/authority, just increase your taming (for control) and leadership (for authority) stat.
What different companions are there?There is a companion for everything. They can help you conquering dungeons or becoming a master of your trade. For a general overview check the
game guide.
Should I get rid of my apprentice?Apprentices won’t give your skills a huge boost. But until you have a better companion for your trade, they can be very useful. They also have no defiance, meaning you can have them in your party even when you are out of authority points. So instead of abandoning them, leave them in your concession.
How do I know when I can equip an item?You cannot equip an item that have too high stats. An item can be equipped if the difference to your hero’s raw skill level (without equipment bonuses) is less than or equal to 15. If your character’s skills are not good enough to equip an something, a red warning message will be shown in the item description.
Where can I find X item?There are just too many items to tell you the specific locations for each of them. However, the
game guide can help you out. Simply click on the item you are looking for, and the guide will show you in which regions it is available.
Why can't I buy X from an NPC?There are different reasons:
The resource is limited at the NPC, and for now he has none left. Try to go back later.
You do not fulfil the requirements to be able to buy this item, for instance, you do not have enough gold.
The third reason is that Therian Saga is not meant to be played alone. In oder to advance in the game you’ll have to interact with other players, establish contacts and find your own suppliers for the resources you need.
Why can't I do X quest?The main reason is that you do not have the required skills to start it. Usually those quests are transparents and they will indicate you what you need under the form x/x skill needed. You need to improve this skill to be able to start the quest.
Why is it useful to read the quest text?Always read the quest text as it will give you important hints and tips for where to go. For instance, if you read carefully the instructions and dialogues in the quest “Follow my instructions” you will have precious hints about the location of the items you are looking for.
I cannot finish a quest, my items are in the professional chest!The quest system currently does not recognise items in your profession chest. That’s why you have to move them in your inventory before you can turn them in to finish a quest.
How do I regain Energy?There are three ways, either sleep (camp, Inn, home or in the guild buildings), buy a cookie from the in-game store to restore energy, or craft your own energy regeneration potions.
What is the difference between sleeping in a camp and sleeping anywhere else?Your hero will recover health and energy no matter where he sleeps. However, if you sleep in the camp you will only go up to 100 energy while all the other locations will grant you a bonus based on the comfort of the place. It will be mandatory to have extra energy to complete some tasks!
I'm mutilated, what does that mean and how do I remove it?You are mutilated if your health drops below 0. It means that you will loose some energy, all tasks will take twice as long to complete, and all combat will last just 1 round (since the loose condition for combat is if you are dead, you can still fight with your companions, but after the first round ends, you will loose the fight if your opponent is still alive.)
To remove it, sleep for a full cycle – 15min, or by a Phoenix Elixir from the item shop.
When I explore an area, can I only find locations within the circle or the whole area?You will always explore the whole area, however you are more likely to find locations closer to where you are.
I keep exploring the area, but the location does not show up, what should I do?If you know the exact location of the point you want to find, try to move closer. Otherwise, read the reports to see if there is something close by. If there is, you will get the message: “After exploring the area, you have found nothing if interest. However, you have the impression that you missed something.” If you see that, just keep on exploring. If that message does not come up, it can mean two different things: first of all, the place can only be found with a quest, they have 1000 Concealment. Or it can also mean that your land and/or exploring skills are not high enough. Try to improve your overall exploring stats (not only by improving your personal stats, but also by equipping a better companion, jewel, having a companion giving you a better bonus or and by using some potions), and it might do the trick!
What is the difference between on-site and off-site objectives?An on-site objective is one that is at a specific location found by exploring. Off-Site objectives tend to be a specific co-ordinates that are not locations. If you have a quest that has an off-site objective, check the wiki for help to get the exact co-ordinates you need for the quest.
How and where can I sell my items?There are several ways to sell your items. You can sell them to NPC merchants. However, other players usually pay better prices than NPCs. If you have an item others might be interested in, you can either list it in the public market, or sell it directly via mail. To advertise your goods you can use the in-game chat or the commerce and trading section of the forum.
How can I send an item to another play?Just as you need to be at a mailbox to receive items, you need to be at one to send (unless you have a courier contract). Once you fill one of the conditions, press v ingame or click the mail icon. From the mail tab, click send to open a new message. Items can be dragged and dropped from your backpack to the mail to be attached.
I bought an item from the market, but it's not in my inventory, where is it?All items bought in the public market will not directly go into your inventory. Instead they will be kept in the market’s storage. To redeem them you have to be at the public market location in the City of Hawkoria or Maliken Harbor. If you want to retrieve the items remotely, you’ll have to use a courier contract.
Is there a fee for selling items in the market and how much is it?For listing items in the public market, you’ll be charged 2.5% of the requested amount and an additional 2.5% if the item sells. So a total of 5%.
Why is the search function useful in the bag?Your bag will soon resemble Mary Poppin's handbang, the depth is infinite and even when empty you can accidentally find a bowling ball. The search helps hide the clutter so that you see only the items you want!
What is the difference between the civil and adventure tabs?The civil tab allows you to customize what other players see when they meet you. It's for aesthetics only and the stats from the civil clothes do not add to your skills.
How do I get to Landel Island?Firstly you need to have started the quest “Rumors of Ghosts”. Once that is started, you can reach Landel Islands by rowing from Craneharbour. Important note, if you complete the quest “Rumors of Ghosts” but do not turn it in, and you leave the Island, you will not be able to return to the Island until you turn in the quest.
Where do I need swamp, snow skills etc etc?[/size]
You will need these skills when later in your adventure. So if you're new, relax and don't worry about them for now! You’ll have to learn swamp skill before you an enter the Howling Swamps in Lanfar, and Snow is required for your Norstrian adventure.
What are the Foggy Pearls and what are they used for?You get these from completing certain quests and from beating some monsters.
These are used for end-game legendary companions. Save them, you will need a lot!
What are wings used for?Better companions require these as a symbol that you are worth their time. The wings are required for hiring some companions and are a symbol of your achievement in a specific trade.
