THE SHOP

---

After creating a character you might be wondering how you get new skills, weapons, techniques, items, etc. Well, the answer is the shop!

First things first, use this command: !shop

The bot will message you with something like this:

[BattleArena] ::[Welcome to the Shop]::
[BattleArena] The shop is where you can exchange orbs for upgrades, new items and techniques. But be forewarned, every time you purchase something your “shop level” will increase and raise the price of everything except items and new weapons.
[BattleArena] Commands: !shop list <items/techs/skills/stats/weapons/styles/ignitions/orbs/portal/misc/mech/mech items> and !shop buy [items/techs/skills/stats/weapons/styles/ignitions/orbs/portal/misc/mech/mech items] [what to buy] Remember to remove the brackets from the command when using it.
[BattleArena] Your current shop level is ###

The “shop level” is basically the current level of the player. Every time you purchase something that isn't a new weapon or an item, your “shop level” will increase. Shop level affects the price of everything except those two things that I mentioned. In other words, you need to plan out your character carefully or you will find yourself out of red orbs or the price of something you really want being slightly more than you can afford.

Most things in this game are purchased using red orbs. Red orbs are acquired by defeating enemies via participating in battles and found within red chests. Weapons, Shields, Styles, and Ignitions require black orbs. Black orbs are acquired by surviving a successful boss battle or found randomly in gold chests. Portal Items require special seals, rather than orbs, to purchase. The seals are found in chests and off of random enemies. Gems and alchemy items are purchased using Allied Notes. Allied Notes are a special currency that you can acquire by defeating the foes found within the portal items. Potion Effects require certain monster spoils found by killing monsters. Finally, NPC Trust Items are special items that can summon an NPC buddy to help you fight when you're alone. These items require login points which you accumulate every new day that you log into the game.

So let's say you want to upgrade your HP (at least one or two upgrades in HP is recommended). You can do it like this:

!shop buy stats hp

The bot will automatically take care of the transaction and send you a message like this:

[BattleArena] You spend ### red orbs for +50 to your hp!
[BattleArena] Your Shop Level has been increased to #.#

As you can see, you've gained 50 HP but your shop level has increased by .1. The next time you go to make the same purchase you will find that it costs a little more red orbs.

Note: You cannot use the shop while in battle. If a battle is going on and you're NOT in it, you can still use the shop as normal.

Another thing to note: the !shop list techs only shows you the techniques that are available for the current weapon you have equipped. So if you have your fists equipped you won't see the technique list for Rebellion, for example. In order to see the other techniques and their prices you have to equip that weapon (or you can use !view-info to look at the weapon and get a list of techniques for that weapon).

If you're looking at all the lists and your eyes are glazing over because you have no idea what all of it does or means, don't worry too much about it. I'll explain all of the skills later on and you can always use !view-info to learn more information on anything you don't get.
