2. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Your First Minutes in Horizon
Set Horizon as your return point
Use the Priest Teleporter and make Horizon your return point. This keeps the main beginner services easy to reach.
Take useful buffs and supplies
The archived beginner walkthrough sends new players to the Trade Angel for buffs and the Lost Child for useful consumables and progression supplies. Check current NPC windows for live inventories and prices.
Learn your inventory and skills
Open your inventory with I and Skill Tree with K. Spend JP carefully while you move through the early class advancements.
3. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Choose Your Class
Choose around the playstyle you actually enjoy. Tournament has extensive class balancing, so this guide does not pretend one class is automatically best for every new player.
| Playstyle | Examples | What to Expect |
|---|---|---|
| Melee / Tank | Templar, Slayer, Berserker | Closer-range combat, durability and/or physical damage. |
| Ranged Physical | Deadeye, Marksman, Mercenary | Distance and ranged physical pressure. |
| Magic | Void Mage, Magus, Corruptor, Cardinal, Oracle | Magic damage, AoE, support or healing depending on the class. |
| Pet-focused | Overlord, Beast Master, Master Breeder | Creature damage, pet support and hybrid gameplay. |
For detailed current comparisons, use the Rappelz Best Classes Guide.
4. Rappelz Beginner Guide — First Progression Step
The archived Tournament walkthrough uses the Green Mana Stone north of Horizon as the first major progression shortcut. Interact with the stone, defeat the summoned Wind Pixie/Fairy and use the resulting early level jump to begin the custom class-progression route.
5. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Master Class
After the early progression jump, use Job Supporter Kyrie in Horizon. The archived Tournament beginner guide documents Kyrie as the custom class-progression NPC and says players can move through the Tournament Master Class route without completing the normal Master Class Trials.
Raise Job Level
Use the Skill Tree and continue raising JLv as the class-transfer options become available.
Class Transfer
Talk to Kyrie and follow your chosen class path.
Confirm Master Class
The archived guide sends the player to the Master Class map and uses the Abomination NPC to confirm promotion.
TP Route
The archived Tournament path states that the normal Master Trials / TP quest chain is not required.
6. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Trial Guardian Rewards
The restored beginner walkthrough documents a useful sequence of timed equipment rewards.
| Level | Archived Tournament Reward | Beginner use |
|---|---|---|
| 150 | Timed +1 Skill armor set and belt | Supports skills and early progression. |
| 170 | Timed +25 weapons | Major damage help for the next progression stage. |
| 180 | Timed +25 armor set | Supports the move into stronger maps and dungeons. |
7. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Pets & Belt Basics
Rappelz is built around creatures, so new players benefit from understanding taming and belt pets early rather than waiting until endgame.
Taming
Use an appropriate Empty Pet Card on the matching creature and use Creature Taming.
Pet Trader
The Horizon/Laksy Pet Trader is used for pet-related cards, items and services.
Belt Pets
Level belt pets enough to unlock their useful passive belt skills.
Pet Staging
Staging combines matching pets and becomes harder at higher stages.
8. Rappelz Beginner Guide — Starter Gear
Use starter and timed equipment to reach the next progression milestone before spending expensive endgame materials on items you may replace quickly.
Timed Gear First
The Level 170 and 180 Trial Guardian rewards help bridge new characters into stronger content.
Soul Stones
Use Soulcrafter services to improve equipment you are actually keeping and using.
Weapon Upgrades
Do not spend rare upgrade materials blindly on temporary gear.
Daily Progression
Quests and repeatable content contribute currencies and materials as you build your account.
For general enchanting, use the Gear Enhancement Guide. For ranked/Ares weapon progression, use the Weapon Upgrade Guide.
