Notes

Rotem Valos is the leader of the Adventurers' Guild. He can inform you about many topics that could be helpful to players who do not know much about playing Tibia.

Part of the Cartography 101 Quest.

There is some unexplained lore connected to this NPC. Near the entrance of the Adventurerer's Guild, there is a statue of Fasul Abrek, "founder of the adventurer's guild, fallen hero, slayer of kings, met his end at the hands of Elane". Rotem Valos is the only NPC on the island who seems to know something about Fasul, but is unwilling to talk about him... yet. Additionally, the name "Rotem Valos" is an anagram for "almost over".

Rotem Valos is mentioned in Desert Storm (Book) and is the author of New Hero.

Playerhi

Rotem ValosWelcome to the Adventurers' Guild, my friend.

PlayerAdventurers

Rotem ValosWe are the Adventurers' Guild, and from this base, we pursue our mission to provide help and information. Occasionally, we need help with various other work.

Playermission

Rotem ValosOur mission is to support young adventurers on their way to glory. By the way, 'mission' is a word you will use quite often in Tibia. All over the world, there are people that might have a mission for you. ...

Rotem ValosTalking to the inhabitants is the best way to learn what bothers them. They will often respond if you simply ask for a mission. ... Certain missions will require some experience, so sometimes you will have to return later on. ...

Rotem ValosYou might consider working for the wizard Eclesius who asked us for some talented help. ... He created a magic portal on the beach outside our headquarters. USE it to instantly travel to his home. Of course there are other things you can do, too.

Playerthings

Rotem ValosFor example, fighting is something you can - and will - do a lot of in your adventuring life, either for a mission or on your own, in order to become stronger. Also, fighting will get you different kinds of loot.

Playeradventuring

Rotem ValosMuch of your adventuring life will be exploring and hunting monsters on your own. There are many places all over the world that are crowded with fearsome monsters and fascinating treasures. ...

Rotem ValosMore often than not, it will be up to you to decide where and how to get experience and wealth in a way that suits your tastes. Explore the world, but be careful. There are things out there that pose a challenge even to experienced adventurers. ...

Rotem ValosWhile you are inexperienced and weak, there is a plethora of creatures that can easily kill you. So never be too bold in unknown territory! ...

Rotem ValosIf you jump down a hole, be prepared to immediately climb up again. When facing enemies of unknown strength, try to fight only one at once. ...

Rotem ValosAlways keep in mind that you need time and resources for your way back and that any enemy corpses you might find, could indicate you might have to face these enemies on your way back. ...

Rotem ValosSometimes, missions suiting your experience level might lead you to dangerous, unknown parts of the world, and might require you to join forces with other adventurers. ...

Rotem ValosFrom time to time, certain areas of the world are also threatened by dangerous creatures, trying to invade. Usually, this will be felt throughout the world, so everyone is alerted to such an event. ...

Rotem ValosIf you are close to one of these events, you might want to participate. In that case, you will need to work together with other heroes to defeat the enemy invasion. ...

Rotem ValosIt takes large organised groups to reach and defeat the monsters at the remote spots where they appear. ...

Rotem ValosIf you prefer less violent affairs however, there are also several seasonal events which are usually not overly violent in nature, where you can join in. ...

Rotem ValosTalk to one of the local towncriers now and then to learn what is happening in the world. Most of those events require some form of travelling though, so be prepared to see more of the world!

Playerhelp

Rotem ValosHere you can find a banking service, a provisioner and - when the time comes - I can grant you a promotion. If you are a new hero, you can also travel to some of the major cities for free.

Playerstronger

Rotem ValosYou become stronger in several ways, some more obvious than others. First of all, there is your equipment. Better equipment means you are harder to kill. Then there's your skill and experience, and your vocation, for example.

Playerequipment

Rotem ValosYou become stronger in several ways, some more obvious than others. First of all, there is your equipment. Better equipment means you are harder to kill. ...

Rotem ValosEquipment can be dropped as loot by killed creatures. Stronger monsters drop better loot of course. You might get equipment as a reward from some missions, which is especially true for the most experienced adventurers. ...

Rotem ValosYou can also buy equipment offered by other players in the market, accessible via the depot. Then there are your skills - when they improve, so does your chance to cope with enemies that you encounter on your travels.

Playerloot

Rotem ValosThe simplest loot is probably junk, but other stuff dropped by slain monsters might be worth something to one of the inhabitants; or you can sell it to some vendors. Dropped creature products often are not that heavy, so they might be worth keeping. ...

Rotem ValosCheck if any dropped weapons or armor are better than what you have. Even if they're not, it might be worth keeping them to sell them to a weapon or armor vendor. ...

Rotem ValosProvided you have the capacity to carry it, that is! But don't become overconfident and forget about death! If you die, you lose part of what you carry, so you might want to stash some spare equipment at the depot.

Playerskills

Rotem ValosBe careful not to die, as you lose skill points with each death! Skills increase by using them. So when you fight a creature, you will always grow a little more skilled with the weapon or magic skill that you use. ...

Rotem ValosThen there is your experience, of course. The more experience you have gained, the more life force and mana you have at your disposal. As you probably already know, you get experience through fighting things, and some missions. ...

Rotem ValosPremium accounts have two additional possibilities, as they can also use training statues and get promotions.

Playerpremium

Rotem ValosIf you have a premium account and were blessed by the gods, you can also use the training statues for some meditative combat training. This means your skills are trained while your character is logged out.

Playerproducts

Rotem ValosCreature products come in all forms, colors and tastes. The simplest creature product is likely to be something edible. You want to carry as much food as possible, but it is probably the first thing to get rid of to carry some valuable loot. ...

Rotem ValosOther products are bought by specific alchemists, trophy hunters or curiosity collectors. Other items might play a role in certain missions, or are useful for obtaining certain items that people value. ...

Rotem ValosSo you can either ask around if certain inhabitants are interested in particular creature products, or try to sell them to other heroes in the market - which you can access via your depot. ...

Rotem ValosDepots and the market itself is global, so there is no need to check another city, the market is always the same. If you are unsure if an item is worth to be kept, keep it in your depot until you learned about its worth.

Playervocation

Rotem ValosYour vocation is what you chose to be - either a knight, paladin, druid or sorcerer. Each vocation has its own fighting technique and skills.

Playerpromotion

Rotem ValosA promotion is available to premium account adventurers with some basic experience, at level 20. ...

Rotem ValosA promotion will increase your health and mana regeneration, help you lose less experience and training if you die, and will give you access to additional useful and powerful spells. ...

Rotem ValosA promotion is available from me or one of the great leaders of the nations for the cost of 20.000 gold. ...

Rotem ValosIf you are prepared for your promotion, let us talk about your advancement.

Playerleaders

Rotem ValosThe great leaders of the world who grant a promotion to adventurers are King Tibianus in Thais, Queen Eloise of Carlin, the emperors Kruzak of Kazordoon and Rehal of Beregar, ...

Rotem Valosand on behalf of the pharaoh himself, the grand vizier Ishebad in Ankrahmun. ...

Rotem ValosDon't forget that you can get your promotion also from me if you don't like those royal ceremonies.

Playerdeath

Rotem ValosDeath is always a threat. When you are resurrected in the temple, you will find you might have lost quite a lot of your equipment. You might want to try to retrieve the more valuable stuff from your dead body. ...

Rotem ValosYour dead body will take a while before it decays, and can be looted - by anyone. But before you run off into danger, remember: You will need a ROPE or a shovel to reach certain spots. ...

Rotem ValosIt is likely that you lost your rope when you died, so you might need to replace it. For this purpose, it might be a good idea to have stashed some basic equipment in your depot. ...

Rotem ValosThis will spare you valuable time when you hurry back to your corpse. Remember that each city has its own depot! ...

Rotem ValosAnother thing that you can do to prevent some of your losses in case of death, is to acquire blessings at certain temples.

Playerresurrected

Rotem ValosWhen you die in Tibia, you will be resurrected in the temple of the city you chose as your home. You can change your home city, and thus the point of your resurrection, in a temple in any city. ...

Rotem ValosIn those temples or sometimes at special places you will find special teleporters that make you an 'inhabitant' of that particular city. That means you will be resurrected there, regardless of where you died in Tibia. ...

Rotem ValosHowever, this can mean a long way to travel to the site of your demise, and might strand you in a city without any money. So you'd better make sure to always have cash on your bank account! ...

Rotem ValosTo prevent some of your losses in case of death, you can do another thing as well: you can acquire blessings at certain temples.

Playerblessings

Rotem ValosBlessings are something the gods bestow upon us in order to protect us. They are expensive though, and require a lot of costly travel. So it might take a while until blessings are an option for an adventurer. ...

Rotem ValosIn case of death, blessings will reduce the loss of experience. The different blessings are cumulative, and add up with each other. However, blessings are spent once you die, and will have to be renewed again. ...

Rotem ValosTherefore, blessings are mainly a tool for the experienced adventurer who has a lot to lose when he dies.

Playerdepot

Rotem ValosWhat you stash in the depot of one city, is global, thus can be retrieved at a depot in another city. Your bank account as well as your inbox are global, and can be accessed from every city. ...

Rotem ValosWhenever you deposit or withdraw money anywhere in the world, it will be the same money balance that is changed. ...

Rotem ValosAlso, through your depot, you can access the market to trade items with other players, to buy or sell items there. ...

Rotem ValosTo prevent some of your losses in case of death, you might also want to acquire blessings at certain temples.

Playermission

Playerwork

Rotem ValosWe always need a hand charting Tibia. Our map of the world can't be detailed enough. Talk to me if you're interested or if you already have a map and lost it.

PlayerFasul Abrek

Rotem ValosSorry but this is a matter I'm not prepared to discuss ... yet.

Playerbye

Rotem ValosGood bye, young adventurer.
