TalonRO 101
[1.0] Introduction
Welcome everyone to TalonRO 101! Whether you are a complete newbie to Ragnarok, a curious serial server hopper or a procrastinating forum lurker, I hope that I can provide with a little knowledge (or failing that, a little entertainment...).
Anyways, this guide aims to provide an overview various aspects of the server. This will include a basic overview of classes, terminology, ingame systems, custom features and other various information. Due to the nature of this guide, I will not be able to cover all sections comprehensively. I shall thus also be including links at the end of each subsection which contain more specific information
(This sounds dodgy but if you which to skip to a section use the search function (Ctrl + F or the equivalent) to get there.)

As you roam around Midgard, you will come across some unfamiliar words that are specific to this game or to this server. For some of these words, I'll include a commonly used abbreviation. A list of common abbreviations can be found _______
[2.1] Basic Terminology
Card- a rare drop from monsters that can be placed into equipment in order to give the equipment an effect.
Costume- a headgear that can be equipped on top of a current headgear in order to give the headgear you're wearing a different appearance.
Custom (item)- an item that has been specifically designed for this server than is not found on official servers. The most famous example on TalonRO is "Lord Kaho Horns" aka a "Kaho".
Job Level- A character's level of skill in their job. One job level give you one skill point to use in the skill tree of your job or a previous job.
Lord Kaho's Horns (Kaho)- A custom upper headgear that is well known as it gives +20 STR, INT, DEX and MDEF. It can be customized to have the image of another upper headgear (C Kaho).
MvP- stands for 'Most Valued Player'. It is a reward that one receives when they are the most influential (usually in terms of damage) person when killing an MvP monster. This reward is some exp and sometimes an item.
MvP Card- a card that drops from an MvP monster; these tend to give effects that are superior to regular cards.
MvPing- The process of killing an MvP monster.
Unrestricted- A PvP/WoE mode that doesn't have any restrictions on consumables or equipment.
Vanilla- A PvP/WoE mode that has restrictions on gear and consumables. Restricted gears include things such as MvP cards and various custom items.
War of Emperium- a weekly server wide event that consists of guilds fighting each other in order to defend or capture castle.

[3.0] Class Overview
As a beginner or even someone who has some prior Ragnarok experience, you might be overwhelmed by the many different classes to choose from. When I started, I made what my friend said I'd like and then went and tried 5 or so other classes in the first month. (I was curious about how the skills worked..) Other people on the other hand know exactly what they wish to make so they only make a couple of characters.
Here I shall give a brief overview of the many classes, their roles and various other information that I think could be important in helping you determine what you'd like to play.
Please be warned that these are just opinions. In the end. You should choose something that you enjoy playing. If you don't know what you like, try a few classes out!
[3.1] Normal Classes
Normal classes are those which are able to be reborn into transcendent classes. Transcendent classes have more HP and SP, more stats from their class bonus and more skills than their non-transcendent counterparts.
