Tips & Info

WORK IN PROGRESS GUYS <3
General information about leveling
First of all, there are a couple of adjustments and " facilities " to be considered in Adventure RO, and it is better to be clear about them from the beginning.
- The level difference to share experience is 15 levels, keep this in mind for leveling groups.
- There is Reset NPC on this server, which is COMPLETELY free as long as you are less than or equal to base level 70 (Includes stats and skills).
- Repeatable experience quests are available on this server, but consider that just like any quest, the experience for them is x6.
- Adventurers Guild It is a feature of the server, it has a lot of efficient suggestions of places for leveling or hunting and facilities like basic equipment that you can get through missions.
- The server has floating rates, however, this only applies to the experience you receive from killing mobs, quests of any kind do not apply.
- Up to 3 clients per computer are allowed, consider this.
- The VIP ticket increases the experience received by 17%, this does not apply to quests, it also protects you from losing experience when you die, if you plan to do a long leveling session, I recommend to consider getting one over the experience manual (25% for 30 minutes).
Zeny Making Guide -(IN DEVELOPMENT, WAIT FOR CHANGES)
Zeny is one of the principal currencies in AdventuresRo. So farm it is essential to unleash the full potential of the equipment and our character. Thats why we're going to make an aproximation about the best of the best places to farm it properly, the best practices and bases to make a real farm system.
- Raw zeny
- Trades with players
- Events
- Gachapon
- Bonus prizes for donations
Raw Zeny
What is the raw zeny?: The Raw zeny is knowed as the basic mechanic of farm items and sell them directly to an NPC. Having sometimes abysmal differences between some jobs and some builds. We need to consider a few questions before start, there are 6 basic aspects you should have in mind before start to farm and know which job can be the best option for your farm style.
Small theory of selling items
- Speed of farm: How much time are you gonna spend for kill a monster and get the item you’re looking for?
- Value of the item: How much is the value of the item you’re gonna sell to the NPC?
- Drop of item: What is the % of an item to be dropped for a mob?
- Mob: What is the element, race, size, HP, DEF, difficult of the monster?
- Map: How to get in? Is easy? Need quest? Requirments?
- Cost-benefit: Is worth the farm system I’m using to get Raw Zeny?
Selling items
Selling items to a NPC, is pretty easy, you only go for some items and sell directly to the NPC to get zeny. There are so many NPC’s that buy all stuff in the game. This NPC’s are in all cities and are distinguished for the icon upper head of all.
Theory about farm jobs
Theorically, all jobs are maded to do everything on the game, that means, you can kill mobs, do quest, play a roll in a party, kill MvP's and in this case, farming. Having this in mind theres also some jobs that can farm some mobs easily than others. With this in mind, we can start to think about a class that's going to be our prefered class to farm, but this doesn't mean you can only play 1 class to farm everything, you can also try new builds, improve some techniques and even, choose new jobs to do a farm system.
You can see a condesated information about the jobs, but we must insist, the versatility of some jobs are long way bigger than this recopilation.
Class | Features | Special for |
---|---|---|
Unique Job can reach job lvl 99. Many of 1st job class job skills. Specialized unique equip. Link provide special equip features. Low HP/SP Not tankers. |
Farm with magical attacks. Reach 150 DEX. Can improve some mechanics with 1st job lvls. Linked can use many equips of other classes. | |
Job with high HP / Def / and some skills to farm. Bowling Bash, Spear Boomerang can be a 10/10 skills for Knight. Shield boomerang, Grand Cross 10/10 skills for Crusaders. Being a LK you have Spiral Pierce for massive damage. Being a Paladin you have Shield Chain for dmg. Slow to kill some monsters. Uses many consumables. |
Used in so many partys to tank. Much STR / VIT / DEF stats. Can farm easy so many maps. Can mob large amounts of monsters and kill groups of them. High HP/SP natural recovery. | |
Job with poor DEF / VIT and with a mober can kill large amounts of monsters. Has high Magical DMG. Good range of maps to farm. Wizz can kill large amounts of mobs with area skills (Storm Gust, Vermillio, Meteor). Professors have high individual DMG and linked can be monsters. |
Have low resistance to many monsters. 1v1 can be complicated against so many mobs. Depends so much for the cast. Battle professors need to be linked. Can kill MvP’s and mobs of monsters. | |
Job with low HP and resistance to mobs. Hunter & Sniper have high aspd, flee, dex and you can combo with Flying Galapago. Clown & Gypsi can do high damage with rebirth skills. Specialized weapons can do massive damage. You can even kill MvP’s with hunter class. |
So versatile to farm. Uses ammunition. Need specialized weapons to optimal farm. Very low resistance to stats, dmg & magical dmg. Not efficient tanks. Versatile builds. | |
The acolytes are so versatile farmers too. In AdventuresRo, we have a costumized feature, allows the skill Magnus Exorcismus to hit every mob in game. Champions are versatile, can kill MvP & farm with combos, finger offensive or occult impact. Can have some elemental weapons. Can need some gear combos. |
Magnus can farm so many groups of mobs in so many maps. Killing MvP’s help a lot to farm some rare equips. Can be versatile between support & damage. You can improve some builds to raise your damage or make some combinations. | |
Merchants are always a good option to farm and improve some things. Blacksmith are so empowered to farm with aspd and STR buffs. Alchemist are great farmers for some creation items. Echonomy based on creation. Spend a lot of money (both). |
Whitesmiths can do tons of DMG, but spent zeny. Creators worth farmers are with homunculus or using bombs. Farm plants or make some economy farming some stems and mushrooms. | |
Thiefs have so many skills to farm mobs easely. Rogues are incredible to steal some items from mobs. Assasins can farm lot of maps, using grimtooth, Sonic blow, crits, can farm large amounts of monsters. Also, perfect hiding with a moskie pet, can help a lot to farm. |
Using EDP, can get tons of damage against lot of monsters. Can farm large mobs with grimtooth and perfect hiding. Some builds can kill MvP’s so easy. Lot of them have so much flee, so 1v1 is a great option too. | |

Very similar job to a hunter class. Have versatility with some skills, like Desperado, Trigger shop or ASPD builds. We have customized equip in AdventuresRo. Have some upgrades about weapons and some cards, can deal massive damage. |
So versatile to farm. Have many customized bullets to deal different types of dmg. Uses ammunition. |
Farming zones & monsters
More than any zone, is the kind of item you can get. The value and the speed of farming, here is where the points in Small theory of selling items makes sense. The core items for farm are some items can be farmed not in a hard way and get nice zeny selling them. Following this path, we can start to make some combinations of mobs to get some zeny and start farming during the improve of our farm system.
This way of farm, help to make a system and you can start to make some routes or maybe some ways of farm to get zeny daily, this mechanics allow to farm some items and maybe explore new maps or new ways to make some money. Following this, the routes of zeny farming can be so versatile and can found new ways of farming with new jobs and new strategies.
We have so many items to farm, also theres no only a limitated amount to farm items and only ways to farm zeny, but there are some items people farm over other for the easy of mob, map, speed or anything can help to get zeny fast, also the are some popular items to achieve this. The popular or core items can be for example:
Honorable mentions
There are few mobs that are not properly to farm some Raw Zeny, it works more for leveling or maybe farming another type of items. But, have some valuable drops and we can make some zeny.

Farming system and aproximations to optimal farming
Once we have the information about the spots we can start to farm, we can start to make a system to improve the farming, and transform it into a true system of farming. To start the maths of the farming system I’m choosing, we are gonna use the normal formula for Cost-Benefit and start doing next formulations.
The formula for Cost Benefit (C/B) according to crecenegocios.com is: C/B = VNI / ICV
Where:
C/B – Cost Benefit
VNI = Value of Net Income
ICV = Investment Cost Value
How I can calculate in this case my Cost / Benefit for a farming process? Let's do the next excercise:
EXAMPLE 1 - NOT A TRUE EXPERIENCE OF FARMING
• Imagine We’re planning to farm zeny with Mavkas in Moscovia Dungeon for 1 hour. We choose the sniper job to farm. We have our mid prize gear and can survive and even can deal some damage. We start to kill some Mavkas and we get 120 whiterless rose (784) and 250 crystal mirror (747).
1. We are going to sell our loot to NPC with no merchant, and then, the maths begin:
120 Roses * 27,500 = 3,300,000 z.
250 mirrors * 7500 = 1,875,000 z
Value of Net Income = 3,300,000 + 1,875,000 = 5,175,000.
• Now we need to check how many items we use to farm (Im going to put just the consumables we use, not the total value of equip, this because you can spend again the same consumables to farm and the equip we can have it 1 time only). 1. In this excercise we use a bubble gum (25%), that cost 1,500,000
2. Also, we use 3,000 (Steel arrows), we can make 1,000 with 1 elunium, so, imagine we buyed elunium at market for 60,000.
3. We use 50 royals buyed in 5,000 to a player.
Gum = 1,500,000
60,000 * 3 elunium = 180,000
5,000 * 50 royals = 250,000
Investment Cost Value = 1,500,000 + 180,000 + 250,000 = 1,930,000
• Now we do the Cost/Benefit operation and the raw zeny.
5,175,000 – 1,930,000 = 3,245,000 z profit.
C/B = 5,175,000 / 1,930,000
C/B = 2.68
C/B = 2.68 * 100 = 268% (transformed to %).
What I do with the 2.68?, what does it mean?, the final result of the operation means the growth of our invest to get some zeny, in this case if the result was for example 0.50 we lose even a % of our invest.
If we invest for example 5,000,000 and get 1 of Cost-Benefit puntuation (100%), we dont win 100% extra, we just recovered our money.
Doing this operations, we can start to farm and do some comparisons to improve the farming system and maybe select a better map for me.
Imagine a comparison between Iara’s and Mavkas in the next example.
In this example we can see the Cost-Benefit of 2 mobs, Mavkas & Iaras. So, what happen? Why the percent of C/B is better in Mavkas and we have less zeny than Iaras?. The answer is the time. Maybe kill Mavkas in the same amount of time is better, but with the Iaras I took less time to farm same amounts, If we continue using the extra time to farm the same items, we can see we’ll get more zeny, even if the other B/C value is better.
Now you can start to choose the different ways to farm and improve our system to make some zeny.
For this you can start to have some comparisions between some mobs using the C/B formula + another things to considerate explicated in definitions.
Alternative zeny-lvling path
Another way to get some zeny in a different way, consist in sacrifice some EXP from mobs and can farm some core items (check: Farming zones & Monsters).
In this case, you can get some leveling routes and sacrifice mobs to get extra zeny during the way to 99.
In this case, we’re going to check 1 possible modifications for one of the most popular class in AdventuresRo.

Trades with players
Small theory of trades
Different from the Raw Zeny, the trades are a trully direct negociation with another person. We have like no tabulators or an estimated prize about the pieces we have to offer to another players.
In this case, going into a little bit of philosofy about, what is the value of an item. Long to the history of humanity, the principal thing to consider an item like “valuable” is a different mix of emotions, desires, feelings, necesity, supervivence and a part of our personality to an object.
This mix of different things, make an object from the world with the condition of “valuable”, so once we have interest or someone show interest on it, we can start to make some negotiations. But, what can I sell? What is valuable out of the mind of a person?
1- How much mobs we are in the server?
2- How hard is to kill the mob?
3- How usefull can be the item im farming?
4- How much of the item is in the server?
5- In which currency will be I payed?
6- I need to sell it in RMT? In CP? Or Zeny?
7- Can be a scam?
To answer that, we can start to check the things we consider usefull in the server, starting with the next title.
Buying commands
You can start to look for offers using the command @ws and @whosell.
The commands are using to check some prizes without going shop by shop looking for an item.
In this example can be @whosell elunium or @whosell 985 to see in our general chat the information of the item.
In the other hand we have the experimental command @ws, that show us a list of the shops with the item. Lets use @ws elunium or @ws 985.
You can see with this command the shops and open them without go to the coordenates, allowing to buy remotly from any city you are.
You can use this tools to make an idea of the prizes of the items, and can ask or start doing your own prize.
Maybe we can start to make the average prize using the average formula:
(50,000z + 50,000z + 51,000z + 55,000z + 55,000z + 60,000z) / 6 = 53,500z
Another one can be lowering the lowest offer (usually depreciate all prizes in market but not all the times).
Lowest offer 50,000z - My offer 48,000z
Other option can be using the main channels and make an offer, the main channels works writting: #main #trade or #party in whisp square. And all connected player will see your message. Remember to use properly the main channels to avoid any penalizations.
As a special tip, you can link the item you have using the key left shift + left click. And the item will be linked to be checked.
Selling exp repetible items. You can check and plan a route for farming some items to start selling. (For full information about the repetable quest available in AdventuresRo check https://wiki.adventuresro.com//v1/index.php/Repeatable_Quests).
Also, I recommend you to check the main office, the first room, theres a NPC, that can make boxes of repeteables, and theres no need to be carrying thousands of items.
Selling cards
Another way to get zeny with trade to other players is farming cards and sell them to other players.
Different from the items, the cards are most rare and valuable item of a lot of mobs. Is the item with less drop % of all monsters. Viewing at this point, looks or can be thought to be worth for all players and all cards are worth to be farmed.
We have some options and cards can be better vs others cannot be used in server. Let’s see an example of 4 different cases, about a easy, medium, hard and legendary card and how worth it can be.
Aproximations to Core Cards
Considerating this, you can start looking for the cards we considerate “Core”, next you can see some examples about the cards that are always demanded in many servers. Using the past methods we can start to put prizes, remember to use @ws or @whosell to check prizes and make negotiations, also:
Selling and Trading Equip
Different from the cards or consumable items, the equip have special mechanics of how improve and make it more valuable. In this moment we can start to talk about the random options of the equip.
(For more information about the random options, check: https://wiki.adventuresro.com/v1/index.php/Random_Options).
Also we can start to think about the refine of each equipment. The refine generate extra effects of the nature of the gear (weapons deal more dmg and other items gives more def).
Some of the equips have special mechanics or bonus effects when they have some refine level, you can check some equips that work with some refines in the gachapon.
(For more information about the gachapon items, check: https://wiki.adventuresro.com/v1/index.php/Mythic_Gachapon_Machine).
This conditions make the trades little bit different from a consumable or maybe another type of item in the game, depending of certain factors like, the refine, the effects, cards and also the difficicult to get the item influences the prize and also the negotiations of the item we're selling.
In this example, we can see 2 differences between 2 weapons and with that, we can start making a prize.
1- Remember we can use the command @ws to take a look of the prizes. In this case @ws Lunakaligo (1544). And take a look on the second tab.
2- We're selling a MvP Lunakaligo, so, we check at the start for a lunakaligo with refine, we found 1 option and we can compare ours with the other one in sale
3- Now we have a prize aproximation about the refine, we can check the prize of abysmal knight cards
4- Also, we have a friend that compares his lunakaligo with mine.
5- Finally, remember we need to consider many things, especified in Small theory of trades the time I spent, is hard or easy to kill Tatachos, how many oridecon I spent to get a +7 oe +8 or +9 or +10.
With this considerations, we can start to have a guide to start making prizes about our items, and can make negotiations, remember, not all can be payed en Zeny, you can also check for another currencies like Cash Point, RMT or Trade for another items.
Selling Cash Shop items
Another option is to sell some items from the Cash Shop, usually people buy rotative or permanents items in the cash shop as a negotiation strategy, you can find, consumables CP items, (that gives you a special item, equip, or effect once is used), equipment (Only headgear, like upper hats, mid and low equipment), and Costumes (Upper, mid, low and garment costumes, even you can find 3rd and 4th job skins that gives you the aspect of the 3rd and 4th classes.
You need to know, in AdventuresRo, the cash shop items have some mechanics to sell items base on some experience in the server, using the commands @whosell or @ws, you can make an estimated prize and buy or sell some items.
Usually the equips can be owned using gachapon or can be buyed directly via cash shop.
The items, a lot of times suffer a devaluation of the prize from original prizes in Cash Shop, this means for example, if an Angel Spirit value is 750 CP and someone is selling CP in 4,000,000z every 100 points. Usually some people sell the items same prize CP transformed into zeny, for example:
You cannot choose 50CP, so you will need to buy 800 CP.
Angel Spirit 800CP x 4,000,000z = 32,000,000.
If you sell for example, at same prize (32,000,000), probably you will find some problems to sell your items. Because is cheaper to negotiate the CP to get the item for less prize than you are selling.
Also, selling items for the same prize the questions is, I can buy the same item for less prize, sometimes is cheaper even, or you can be lucky and get a buyer for full prize, but usually we start to depreciate the value a little bit, to movilize the item.
Autovending
A part of the population is in merchant area, mainly in Prontera Merchant Zone (Can be warped using the Odin Statue in all cities), but you also can see some shops in some cities, like Payon, Morocc, etc.
Using a merch with autovend is a great option to earn some zeny, you can choose some items and put in the the market zone.
Using the skill “Vending” you can select up to 10 items and use the command @at, to leave the merchant.
Just 1 char in autovend can be logged, if you have your merch in the same account, youre not going to be able to log and keep the shop active.
- NEVER be shy to ask for the value of an item if you are not sure, use the #trade channel in the game or contact a Mentor, it is always good to have a reference.
- Check periodically the @whosell and @iteminfo stores are very practical commands to know the market reference price.
Recommendations:
- Regardless of the class you have chosen, you should ALWAYS create a merchant class, Overcharge & Discount allow you to sell your items more expensive and buy cheaper from an NPC by 24%. It is mandatory to have these skills at level 10.
- In the beginning try to prioritize places where the benefit is higher, for example High orcs and pasanas are very similar in difficulty, but the amount of Zeny you can get in Pasanas is much higher and the equipment needed is the same.
- There is a "favorites" tab in your inventory, and it is possible to assign in this tab all the items that you do NOT want to sell, as it has a lock to avoid selling them to npc.
Trades with players
- NEVER be shy to ask for the value of an item if you are not sure, use the #trade channel in the game or contact a Mentor, it is always good to have a reference.
- Check periodically the @whosell and @iteminfo stores are very practical commands to know the market reference price.
Events
- Seasonal events are an excellent way to get zeny easily, usually the currency of the event is sold at a very high price the first days of the event, use this to your advantage, sometimes letting the items pass a couple of days can be better.
- The event coins are a permanent currency, take advantage of the automatic events.
- BG although it is not an event as such, it is a fairly simple income, you just have to meet the level requirement and play, then you can sell the medals, THE EQUIPMENT AND THE PRIZES ARE NOT TRADEABLE.
- The rotating events like enriched elunium or card recycler are an excellent source of income, keep your Elunium, Oridecon and 2carat diamando safe for this occasion, many times veteran players will try to buy your "useless" cards at a low price, if someone needs them, it's for a reason ;)

Potion Making
In Alberta, in the Merchants guild, there is an NPC that allows you to exchange your herbs for potions, although it is known that an Alchemist specialized in brewing for a player who does not have this character or is just starting this NPC gives a huge comfort and advantage.
