WK How To: Attendance

The attendance is one of the bonus features WonderKing is offering. This system gives out bonus items for players who play the game frequently.
The attendance icon can be seen just beside the hp and mp bars. The number indicated is the number of minutes left to be checked. You have to stay online for at least 1 hour to be checked for the game attendance.

Once the 1 hour has passed, the attendance icon will display “checked” signifying that you are already checked for attendance for that day.

To check how many days you have been checked, you may click the attendance button to go to the check card. You will see that in every five days that you play for at least an hour, you will be able to click the trade button to get a random reward.

Now, you're in the know!

WonderKing How To: Party

The party system in WK is very important since it allows you to venture with friends to go hunting, finishing quests and missions, etc. Players must form at least a group of 2-5 players to successfully create a party. Unlike other MMOs, WK is including a “party point system”, in which parties earn either cash or experience bonuses depending on the choice of the party leader.

To get a player near you join your party, all you have to do is right click on the character and click on the “add party” button. For friends or other players who are far from where you are located, use the Party Forums menu. This will help you get your friends to form a party even if you are far away from one another.

The Party Forums



This is what the Party forums look like. In here, you could add members to your party and you could also register your party for others to see.

How to Register:


1. Click the register button on the lower left side of the forum window

modify reg

2. It will ask you to enter a message, the message you will place would be the title of your party

success

3. Once successful, a pop-up window will show saying that your registration is activated



4. Now all you have to do is hit on refresh and you will see your party in the forums

icon

5. At the same time, you will see a party icon on top of your character’s name so that other players who are near you will see that you are looking for party members (clicking on the icon would directly go to your party forum’s post)

Now, once you have gathered members, you will see your party’s information (members’ levels, location etc.) via the shortcut key [G].

Party Point System


The party point system is a great feature in WonderKing. Players get to have extra bonuses while being in a party. The party leader has to decide whether if your party will have experience or Zed as an extra reward.
Upon the party leader’s invitation to a party, the leader will be asked the type of party that he wants to create, also included is the option of what bonus the party will receive.

invite

After the party has been made, you will see the party’s basic information on the left side of your screen, included is the party point mark (starting count is 0)

Point

Every time your party hunts, the party point will build up points. Now once the party has agreed to gather the payment (more than half of the party should agree), all they have to do is click the pay button. Don’t underestimate this feature because we tested it, and for just 5 points, we actually got 40 zed :lol:


Question: What if the party was disbanded?

Answer: if the party is disbanded without getting the pay, the accumulated pay will then be converted to experience. If there are three members and one member left, his share will be then converted to experience but his points will have deductions for penalty of leaving the party. The most recommended way to get the full party point is to accumulate the pay first before leaving the party.


Penalties for level Gaps


There are no level limitations in parties (happy are those who love to leech) but there is a penalty for those parties who have huge level gaps among their members (leechers’ hopes all gone!). the table below shows the acquisition percentage of each member if there are level gaps among their members. Note that all of these penalties apply to all members.

There is also a penalty if the monster you hunt has a huge level difference from your party’s average level. So you have to be careful on what monsters your party should hunt to avoid such penalties.

Additional Bonus

Additionally, parties can gain more if there are more members in the party and that all of the members are hunting on the same map.

Bonus

The table above shows that you could gain more in a party as long as you avoid the penalties, giving you a faster way to earn more experience and money. Not bad for meeting new party mates!

Now you get it, Now you learn!

Drool Pool: Character Classes Preview

Ok, you are already familiar about the four classes in WonderKing, and you already made up your mind on what class to choose. Well, we’re going to give you some things to think first before you actually finalize your decisions. Coming with this intro to the classes are some of the pictures of their weapons so you guys could get the idea on what weapons your characters might look like.

Swordsman – Ok, so obviously, swordies use swords. The only difference is, when you change jobs and chose a path to take. Now, there are two options when it comes to weapons, one hand and two hand weapons.






Thief
– Thieves have a very low reputation in real life, but, in WK, we have to exaggerate it a little bit. I mean, how players could be scared of a thief if it doesn’t have wicked weapons. Also, with its two sub classes, the knave and ninja, you should be pretty sure that their weapons are not only for whacking and slashing, but for fashion as well.






Mage – Ah, the favorite of most ladies. Yep, most female players love to control wizards and healers. Now we know that these classes should have the highest form of fashion. Of course, isn’t it something if you whack a monster with a cool looking wand or staff? It’s an honor to be hit with one of those IMO!








Scout – The class which loves to avoid getting mobbed. Although they are usually seen at the back, you might get some serious decisions to do if you see their weapons. One look and you’d surely say that they could deal serious damage!







Now you see the weapons of each class. All of them are pretty good ain’t it? Now you decide which class you will choose!
Oh, on the next episode, we shall give you some sample screenies of each class performing their skills. Decisions, decisions… What would be your decision?

Wonderking 101: The User Interface

Last time we talked about the basic controls of the game. Now we shall focus on the game’s UI or the user interface.

The user interface is actually the most essential part of a game, which practically serves as a guide for players in gaming adventures. In wonderking, the UI was designed to ensure easy access to most settings for those who are still not used to the keymap. A screenshot below will give you a sample on what to expect on the game’s interface.

1. Player name
2 – 3. HP- MP bar
4. Attendance window
5. Announcement ticker
6. Server / Channel Information
7. Mini-map
8. Quest Check
9. Chat window
10. Skill slots
11. Experience bar
12. Player menu


As you can see, the interface of wonderking online was well thought of. Basically, all of these items are self-explanatory and doesn’t need further details. Also as an addition, whenever you are in town, and looking for an NPC, just hover your mouse pointer at the minimap to see the location of the npc. Other features, such as the attendance window, shall be discussed soon.
Watch out for the next episode, we are going to discuss the inventory and the warehouse!

Wonderking 101: Basic Controls

A lot of you might get confused of the configuration of Wonderking Online. So to give you a heads up, we shall give you the basic controls to help you on your way.





Tips:

- If talking to an NPC (non-player character), you may execute the conversation by pressing spacebar or just by clicking him/her using the left mouse button.

- You can actually perform a double jump by pressing ALT twice.

- To increase you movement speed, you can buy a speed potion from the item NPCs, which could boost your movement for up to 300 seconds! Now that’s cool!

Stay tuned for more tips and ideas in the next episode of Wonderking 101!
