Desert Town of Dozo

Here's a quick post about a few areas of interest if you've never played on BadLands RPG before. Dozo is the main town/starting point in the server, the screen captures below are in no specific order either so don't think of this as a walk through. You can only add +1 to your gear in Dozo, but eventaully when you get to Newport and the Underdark you'll be able to upgrade your gear even further.


This friendly fellow sells gloves if you so happen to be playing a monk, then you can add enhancements to them if so desired, assuming you have enough money and the required character level.



The dye guy is fairly obvious, he sells dye. But you don't need to buy any, BadLands RPG has an excellent crafting system that allows you to fully change the color and apperance of your weapons/armor.



Here is Ekko's Arena, this is where you and 1 other person battle each other to see who reigns supreme. But be warned! DO NOT ENTER ALONE, there is a slight bug and you will be trapped in the arena until a DM can port you out. So if you decide to try the arena MAKE SURE you have somebody join it with you.



The Dozo Bindstone allows you to port to where you previously died if you choose to respawn in Dozo, it's a fairly simple concept so I won't go into detail.



This is first place you want to visit after leaving the Oasis Restort after character creation. The Armory is where you get your weapons and armor, AW YEAH. Make sure to talk to everyone inside so you whats going on. "Shorty" will be your friend in the future, he also lets you "re-level" ONE level if you make a mistake.



The magic shop is where you get your belt, boots, cloak, rings, amulet. Make sure to buy all this stuff and add enhancements to them as soon as you can afford it. Things get tough quick around here so make sure your gear is maxed out when you can.



Wanted Dead or Alive. Reading this will explain all the PvP rules on BadLands RPG, and display your PK points if you've aquired any (I think)



The Server Lady is cool, she knows all about the server and such, so make sure to check her out. But don't let her catch you looking :)



Soppi is who you want to talk to when your inventory gets clogged up with items that other shops won't buy. It's worth it clean out your junk and get the money in return, item crafting gets very expensive and you'll need all the money you can scrounge up. Plus I think you can get some thief stuff, but I forgot. der.



This bad-boy is the character deleter. So you've managed to make the crappiest character ever seen, one quick conversation with this shark and you'll be a thing of the past. I don't know if it got fixed, try not to re-make a character with the same name as one previously deleted, you can come back and the whole town will think you're hostil and they will attack you on site. Not a good place to be at level 1.



Well, thats the short version for now. Hopefully this helps out a bit and keeps you from bugging our friendly DM's to much. :) Happy Hunting.
