[edit] Downloading and costs
Eudemons Online is free to download. It is available for download at the official website with a filesize of 611 MB. Players can also purchase special Eudemon Codes (a pair of numbers containing a code ID and a password) with real money that allow users to buy rare items. Eudemon Points can also be gained in very small amounts (1, 2 or 3 at a time) from items dropped from monsters during most special events, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, and so on.
[edit] Gameplay
[edit] Characters
Once players have an account and have downloaded the game, they can now play. Players first must choose a server in which to play. Each server allows only one character. On the character selection screen, players have 6 choices:
- Warrior (male)
- Warrior (female)
Warriors are very skilled in melee combat and good defenders.
- Mage (male)
- Mage (female)
Mages are fairly weak at melee attacks but they excel at ranged attacks.
- Paladin (male)
- Paladin (female)
So far, Paladins are unplayable characters.
There are only minor differences between male and female characters. Males can only give roses to females and not receive them. Females can only receive roses from males and not offer them. Some clothing are only for one sex. Also both sexes have their own set of hairstyles and avatars.
[edit] The Eudemon System
When starting up, characters begin with two "Eudemons". A Eudemon is like a pet that can be trained, taught and evolved into higher forms. They are creatures similar in concept to Pokemon. Just as the player can gain experience points to increase character levels, so can the Eudemons. They are at their lowest form and begin at level 1 when the player begins his/her journey for the first time. Once they reach level 20 they can be evolved. Most Eudemons look different in their evolved form but there are few whose appearance remains the same. Players can evolve their Eudemon again at level 40 but this time if they wish to do so, players must go to the game's Market and place the Eudemon into a special evolution machine.
Players can obtain new pets to party with by either buying them from the Eudemon shepherd in Cronus City for varying prices or finding their eggs after killing monsters. 12 Eudemons can be carried in the party list at any time. There are Eudemon warehouses situated in the first 3 cities and Market where up to 10 Eudemons can be stored in each one. Also, players can carry 6 unhatched eggs at any time. There are also special Eudemons that can only be obtained at certain events or have to be bought from other players who will most likely sell them at a high price.
[edit] Evolution
At level 20 a Eudemon is able to evolve to a higher form and, depending on what type it is, can change its appearance. First evolution is important as it verifies the pets attributes, quality and initial statistics. Pets now also be used as minors in main attribute composition.
At level 40 a Eudemon can evolve again into its highest form. Once again, its appearance may change depending on the Eudemon's type. This evolution is also important. Pets can now be used as minors in senior composition, obtain a special gift, or even turn into a thunder race Eudemon.
[edit] Composing
Composing can be done when your Eudemon is level 50. Composing essentially fuses two Eudemon together to strengthen one. The major eudemon stays, while the minor eudemon's attributes enhance the major's, but the minor Eudemon is lost in this process. Composing can also improve the quality of the major Eudemon. It is random, and luck is a factor in composing.
[edit] Monsters, experience, and leveling
The way for a character and their Eudemons to increase in attributes is to battle monsters. Every time a player attacks a monster they will gain experience points. The tougher monsters give more experience. The character's experience bar is situated at the bottom of the screen horizontally and the Eudemon's bar is blue in their avatar. When the bar is full the character will gain a level higher. The higher their level, the better the armor, weapon and skill can be used. Besides killing monsters, players can gain experience by using ExperienceBalls to level up, and Eudemons can make use of EudemonCrystals to give them a boost of leveling experience. EudemonCrystals come in different ratings starting at 10 points. The higher the rating, the more experience the Eudemon receives, and the more levels it will gain.
[edit] Mentor and teamwork
A player can be trained by mentors, who are other players that help increase another player's stats. Players may only have 1 mentor, but mentors may have more than 1 apprentice. A rank one mentor can have up to 3 apprentices, whereas a rank two (max) can have up to 6.
[edit] Player killing system (PK)
This game incorporates the PK system that Conquer Online uses. This allow players to PK anybody they wish. However, there are places where PK is forbidden. Similar to Conquer Online, if a player kills another player in a city or near a guard, the attacking player will be killed by the guard or otherwise, killed by other players. For each player killed, the killer gains PK points.
[edit] XP System
Eudemons Online has a special XP system. It incorporates an XP bar that gradually fills no matter what the player is doing. When the bar fills completely, a pyrotechnic sequence will insue and the player can choose an XP skill to use, which is more powerful than the player's normal skills. The player must choose the skill quickly, for when the flames on the XP bar die out, the XP skill is lost until the bar fills again. When the player chooses the spell, he/she can use it to kill as many monsters as he/she can until the XP time runs out. If the player is in a team, all members gain extra experience. The XP skill, once chosen, cannot be canceled except for the Mage XP skill Rage (allows the player to float and kill enemies with lightning), where the player can descend and lose the remaining XP time.
[edit] Family
After a family is created, all members in the same family and team can share the potency from the highest potency family member. All members must be in the same screen. Lower level players can even attack black-named monsters and PKers much more easily.
[edit] Legion
Players can join a legion at any time, usually by the leader of a legion inviting them to it, and the player responds by clicking "Yes". A player may create a legion at level 50 for a fee ranging from 350,000 to 500,000 gold. They may also dismiss the legion by going to the Bucks Warder in Cronus.
The name of the legion can be whatever the creator chooses, and may have an unlimited amount of people in it, unlike a family, which is only a maximum of 12 people. The legion can eventually display a "Eudemon Totem" which may increase the potency of high-ranking members.
Ranks can include Leader, (the creator, obviously) General, General's Assistant, Deputy, Liuetenant, Sergant, and Common Member. Members of the legion may increase their status by donating gold to the legion itself, the minimum being 1,000 gold. Each 1,000 gold donating gives a total contribution point and a gold contribution point. These invoke status towards members of the legion.
The only members of the legion that may recruit others are the Leader and the General. Recruiting is done by clicking on the legion button(pressing Ctrl+A) and clicking on a player who isn't a part of the legion.
