English Newbie Guide - Part 1A

As of now, I assumed the game development is still progressing and updating. Its not a completed version. Thus, using Fist or Sword is still the best for the current version. After grinding and testing for more than 200 hours, these are my two cents.

Go for Hell mode. It’s not that difficult. It’s more fun. Plus, you get to have max 4 talents. At first, you can only choose max 3 and be able to lock 1 as you are rolling for it. But as you play the game, and more achievement made, you will unlock max 4 talents, and able to lock 2. Plus, you will unlock Yellow Grade talent as well. I managed to unlock:
自愈体质 – Self Healing Physique: Double the restoring effect from skills. (Forgot which achievement to unlock this)
圣贤传人 – Sage Successor: All your 6 Values (Benevolence, Righteousness, Wisdom, Courage, Loyalty, Credit) will be 100 from the start. (Unlock this talent when your previous game all these Values reached 100)
财大气粗 – Rich Power: Every g1000 you have, you dealt 1 extra damage. Up to 250. (Unlock this talent when your previous game collected total of g100,000)

And as you achieve more achievement, you get more attribute points to allocate.

I start of with these:

Attributes:
Strength: 6 (I go for 6 because you will gain 3 points extra by lumbering, mining, and fishing respectively, when you reach a certain level of these skills. And it’s achievable in early game as well). Now the total is 9. Then when you travel to ChuXiang City, and as you reach the wine tavern, a scenario will pop up. Either choosing to treat the guy with the specific wine (which you can buy it in LinAn City wine tavern for g1000) and receive a +10 Fist attribute item (only able to use when you reach 100 Fist) OR choose to pay for drinks together for g1000 (to get +1 Strength pill. I go for the pill, so my Strength is 10 and able to get the bonus stats.

Stamina: 10 (I go for 10 because all this while, there seems to be no other way for me to get Stamina points in the game).

Agility: 1 (I go for 1 because as you are running in the game, you will gain points. I managed to gain 3 points so far, so wonder it may up to 10 as I keeps on running while playing the game). Plus, there are talents and skill tree that can substitute my low Agility. For example:
Intelligent: 10 (You will be able to learn martial arts way faster. And it affects your teammates too). If you go for Sword, and wanted to join the 琅琊剑阁 Langya Sword Pavilion sect, then you need high intelligent, because one of your seniors will only pass his Purple Grade sword art to you if your intelligent is more than 6 or 9, I forgot. The only downside of having Intelligent 10 I came across so far is that you’re not able to get the Yellow Grade Ultimate skill art from the Stone Pillar, in your starting newbie forest hunting ground, where the red boar is guarding. But you will be compensated with a Yellow Grade experience scroll. If you prefer to have this Ultimate skill, your Intelligent point set at 1. Other numbers I did not try, but Intelligent 1, you’ll be able to get this Ultimate skill just by touching the Stone Pillar.

Luck: 1 (Doesn’t need to add anything on this, you will be able to get it up to 10 easily in the game). Go to ChuXiang City and touch the Hero statue. First, is the kowtow scenario, make sure your stamina is 100, and your health is about 250. After nonstop kowtow for 100 times, you will get a Purple Grade sword. Then the second scenario is to pray at the statue, again make sure your stamina is 100 – 130 (finish 100, eat some fish for another 30), you will up your Luck attributes to 10.

Talents:
These are the talents I always roll for it. It’s useful.
Yellow Grade:
万里独行 – Lone Travel for Thousand Miles: every battle you’ll get extra +25 qi energy, with every member in the team will reduce -5. (This will make your actions faster; you’ll be able to hit enemies first and few more times)
天煞孤星 – Lone Star: Combat experience gained x 3 and your damage is doubled. (You can level up damn fast. You need it, because the higher level you are, the easier as you progress)
神行无忌 – Bravery: You gained +2 extra squares to move in battle. (Which is good where you can move farther) If you not yet unlock 自愈体质 – Self Healing Physique, I recommend getting this instead.

If you only can max 3 talents at the moment, then the last one I recommend getting this Purple talent instead. The best so far for me.
身如鬼魅 – Ghostly Body: +20 qi energy at all times. (You’ll be damn fast now together with your Lone Star).
Items:

You can select up to 3 items to start with. Select gifts instead on pills. You doesn’t need pills at all from the start. I recommend:
粗茶 – Rough Tea
大海碗 – Ocean Bowl
绮红小史 – Red Novel

As to why I chose these three? Will be explained in English Newbie Guide - Part 1B

Character creation tips, and some beginner Village Stage walkthrough.

It reduce 10 stamina now, can only kowtow max to 10

[Sol]

you can skip healing items if you pick the manual with regen per turn from one of the girls

[Quickpawmaud]

For anyone starting out I highly recommend taking the 100hp healing items as a starting item. It will let you kill all the animals in the forest getting to level 10+ on the first day. This guide is more meant for a second playthrough it seems like. Going for a speed build or a healing build has worked really well for me and my friend. Also at the end of the forest if you walk around the red boar you can get to the stone tablet without fighting him for a free 10k xp getting you to level 19. This is the best possible start I have found.

[Quickpawmaud]

Oh I guess you say when you unlock achievements you get more points too bad the achievement list is not translated oof.

[Quickpawmaud]

Also it seems impossible to put 6 points into Strength, 10 into Constitution, and 10 into Intelligence. There are just not enough points.

[Quickpawmaud]

Sage Successor is Saint, Rich Power is Power of Money, Self Healing Physique is Regenerative Body , Lone Traveler is Loner, Lone Star is Lone Wanderer, Bravery is Fast Runner, I *think* Ghostly Body is Rapid Response as it adds +20 Action Speed but it mentions nothing about qi so idk. Also Regenerative Body is unlocked at the start but Fast Runner is not.

[Quickpawmaud]

Is hell mode hard or nightmare? I assume nightmare.

[yuriski1st]

So, if you set your intelligence to 1, what should you use your points on instead?

[123]

I have finished 100x kowtow, how to pray to the Hero Statue ? Is it different from kowtow or by praying you mean kowtow ?
