Registering, downloading, and running the game
First of all, you will need Create Game Account a in order to play.
In order to get the client, you will need to download the launcher from the PWMayhem official website or Discord. The download link is in the 'downloads' channel.
Simply download the executable into any folder and run it.
Once the download is complete, simply run the launcher. It will automatically download and update the client into the folder that it is in.
There is a chance that the antivirus software may falsely flag the download as malicious, but it's safe to ignore. It is advised to add it to the antivirus exclusion list
Once that is done, the Play button will become available and you are ready to start the game.
.
Starting your character
Once you have created a character and logged in, you will spawn into the Celestial Vale. In Heroes' Terrace, at (326, 525), you will notice an NPC, the Gear Provider.
Talk to the NPC, and you will see the following options:
The Starter Goods will open up a shop which will sell the materials you will need to craft your starter gear:
Each material is for one set, as described below.
| Level 1 |  |
| Level 50 |  |
| Level 90 |  |
These materials can be used when accessing the Starter Gear option:
Here you can craft your level 1, level 50 and level 90 gear. These sets of gear should be more than enough for any class to face most of the challenges that may come in their way. You do not need to have a crafting skill for these items, and you may retry crafting them as many times as you wish.
The Gear Provider can also be found in West Archosaur at (531, 652).
Once you are done, you are ready to start your adventure.
- The Golden Treasure Chest has had its rewards changed in order to accommodate the server's leveling pace. Some of these rewards include: [check rewards and write down a few here].
- The calendar rewards players with free Teleacoustics, Teleport Stones, Guardian Scrolls (about 10 per week of each), and other useful goodies.
.
Leveling
At the beginning, the best way to level up is by doing the quests in the Celestial Vale. This should be a breeze, as the server rate should speed up the process. All quests give 3 times the exp and twice the spirit of their retail counterparts.
The exp rate of all monsters is x5 and Hyper EXP Stones are available on this server.
At level 8, you will receive a free 7m/s mount via quest from the Pet Manager NPC in Heroes' Terrace (327, 529).
At level 10, you will receive a free 4m/s (5m/s when accelerated) flier via quest from Overseer Yen Zutien in Sigil Palace (364, 566 ↑12).
Cultivation is the same as on the official 1.5.5 server. Delta only requires 2 people in a squad to enter (you will still need to have 6 Rebirth Orders), however you will still need to do a full run to finish cultivation.
.
Guilds
As you progress through the game, you may wish to join a guild or create your own and recruit other players. Here, we have adjusted the maximum limit of players that can be in the same guild according to the table below:
| Guild level | Max players |
|---|---|
| 1 | 15 |
| 2 | 20 |
| 3 | 30 |
This is in order to encourage the formation of multiple guilds in order to make PvP more interesting and competitive. These numbers may be adjusted in the future for balancing purposes.
- Faction Base Quests guild materials, contribution and faction construction points are multiplied by 5.
- Reduced the maximum number of positions.
| Positions | Max Allowed |
|---|---|
| Marshals | 3 |
| Executors | 9 |
- Territory Wars is a 30 vs 30 battle now.
.
Custom content
The cursed Nightscream Island
When you reach level 100 second rebirth, you can enter the Cursed Nightscream Island. In order to do so, go to West Archosaur, talk to the Nightscream Island Survivor (528, 653), and accept his quest. You can also find this NPC in Dreamweaver Port at (668, 373). You will then be teleported to the island.
This is a public instance with PvP enabled. So, when entering, make sure you are prepared.
Once inside, you will automatically receive a quest.
This island is full of monsters that drop non-tradable Jindan Orbs. It is highly recommended that you tackle this instance with a group of players, as these enemies can pose a challenge even without the added danger of being killed by other players.
The number of drops from each enemy can vary, but, in general, each monster will drop up to 3 NT Jindan Orbs per kill.
Once you collect 75 Orbs, the quest will auto-complete and convert them into tradable Jindan Orbs at a ratio of 1:1. The quest will then be automatically re-taken so you can continue gathering if you wish. The quest will work at most 40 times per day.
If you still have NT Jindan Orbs in your inventory, but wish to leave the instance, you have the option to convert them into Jindan Orbs at a ratio of 100:1 at the NPC near the spawn area.
If you leave the instance with NT Jindan Orbs on you, they will disappear from your inventory.
If you die, you will drop NT Jindan Orbs, regardless of whether you were killed by a player, or a monster. Guardian Scrolls will not protect you from dropping this item. However, it is advised to have guardian scrolls on you to prevent the loss of other items in PvP.
When you are done, you can leave the instance at any time via the NPC at the spawn point.
Once you have gathered enough Jindan Orbs, you can trade them at the Nightscream Island Survivor for items such as:
- Medal of Glory
- General Summer's Token
- Essence Pack (contains Basic Badge, Essence of Defense, Essence of Offense)
- Mold Packs (contains R9 molds)
- Refining orbs
- Refining aids
The "traditional" methods to farm these items are still present in the game. This comes as a new alternative to obtain them.
