Creating Characters

Select Create a Character and just roll for stats until you’ve found a range of stats that suits your needs.

일반적으로 15-18 should be looked between strength and dexterity for combat classes with a constitution of 12+ with the highest starting HP possible

For mages the player is simply looking for a high intelligence score of 16-18 with the largest mana pool possible

For a Rogue, the player is looking for a high Dexterity score and a high Luck score of 12-15 가능하다면. Rogues may make for better combat classes than a Bard but they can also be kept in reserve since their health will decrease overtime due to triggering traps while attempting to disarm treasure chests.

The player can choose to Create A Character and select from these races:

Human: Generally good stats

꼬마 요정: Magic oriented warrior class

난쟁이: stout warriors less inclined to magic

Hobbit: Lucky rogue types

Half-Elf: Still magic oriented but slightly stronger physically than an elf

Half-Orc: Stronger than a human, could probably compete with a dwarf

금언: The most magically inclined of all

The starting classes to choose from are:

무협가: Magically resistant warriors that gain access to special Paladin only equipment

전사: The combat class, can equip the heaviest of armor and weapons

음유 시인: Has the ability to cast ambient buffs on party via Bard Songs, but has nerfed combat abilities

사냥꾼: Close range critical attacks, tends to generate the lowest starting armor class

악당: Has the ability to “Hide in the Shadows” for increased critical hit chance

Monk: Monks benefit from a weapon until level 4 after which they should be unarmed and while have a naturally lowering AC score as they level up, they are said to be the best combat class, but for the purpose of this guide, we will be focusing on cloning the “A-Team for the moment”

마법사: A white and black mage all in one, this magic casting class starts with the ability to deal heal after purchasing the next tier of spells

마술사: This is a utility mage class that can initially buff the attack of a single character and eventually begins to deal damage and heal but not until after purchasing the third tier of spells

Stats to Consider

힘, the higher the strength the higher the attack damage and the lower the damage spread

헌법, the higher the constitution the more health points the character will gain over time

재치, the higher the dexterity, the lower the AC score and the greater the evade chance

지능, is only important for mages and dictates the gain of mana points over time

운, is a general random number modifier, the higher the luck the better the loot

Equipping CharactersCustom characters start out with roughly 250 gold to spend on new equipment. When first starting the game, it’s helpful to create a string of temporary characters to pool their starting gold into one character for between 800-1000+ gold per cycle and then deleting the drained characters and repeating the cycle to pool up 5000+ gold to start with.

It looks something like this:

단계 11

This is tedious and a lot, but doing it at least once in the beginning of the game will create an incredibly deep gold pool for the player to pull from which will enable them to revive, cure, restore and heal characters at will instead of having to continuously scrounge for money because of how costly temple runs start to become.

A Side Note on Healing

A lvl 10 character costs something like 8100 gold to revive and if they have a status impairment, that will need to be cured for something like 4000 gold before they can be healed and on a character with 100+ health that is a minimum of 1000 gold for a total restoration cost of 13,100+
