Of Genies and Men

Jade~Rayne wrote:So I have had a lot of people asking me for help on how to level and spent affinity points with their genies. I never mind helping out but I thought maybe with a step by step picture guide here, I may be able to help out people when i am not online as well.

Step one: Breathe it is going to be ok!

Step two: Laugh and move on to my images. (Don't really care what you laugh at but it seems to help relieve stress. So why not laughter at the thought of Pop-tart wearing one of my dresses..LOL)

Ok here we go(if you still have questions please post them)

Upon finishing the quests that you get when you get your genie you will have a genie (randomly given) and maybe a few cubes of enlightenment. The cubes are like a credit/debit card for you genie. Instead of money it holds experience.

Equip your genie in its slot the same way you equip all your other equipment. (That was easy enough) After equipping your genie your screen should look like this:


Ok next we are going to right click on the picture of your genie and a menu, should open up and now your screen has transformed to look like this:


There are several interesting and important things in this menu. The upper section(1) has your basic battle stats. The next section(2) is your genies attributes. Each one has different effects. Just hover over them to read what each one does before spending your points to raise anything. Section 3, is where you will use any equipment you have for your genie.( I do not have equipment for my genie, but I would assume that it equips the same way as your own armor) The last section (4) is the one you will be using than any other, most likely. (We will go into each of the three buttons of section 4 in just a moment.) Finally section 5 is your experience bar. This tells you have much exp you have and what you need to level your genie.


So far I have been ridiculously throughout but I want to be sure anyone and everyone can get the information they need.

Lets explore the first button in section 4 first, affinity. This well open up a new menu that you will use to assign points to the element of your choice. Which points you place where will be determined by what spells you wish your genie to know.


Within this menu you can open up the lists of spells that a genie can learn. (Word of warning, when deciding on a spell you want your genie to learn be sure that you fulfill all the requirements for the spell. Including the proper placement of affinity points plus some spells are class specific. Just hover over a spell you are interested in to see what the requirements are for that particular spell.) In order to access the skills click on the skill inquiry button. Upon clicking this button here is an example of what you will see:


Now lets close out those two menus and go back to the first one, and click the trade state button. This will open up a new menu that allows you to change the trade status of your genie. It is pretty self explanatory but here is a pic just in case:


Close out that wonderful and simple menu to open up the one you will be using more than any other, in my opinion. I will attempt to make this short and sweet but I guarantee nothing. (To all those who are getting irate about the length of this post... I have had to do this with several people online and some of them I had to go slower than this!)

On the first menu in section 4 there is a button called EXP infuse. Lets click on it to get to the experience menu. In this menu you are going to learn how to and actually infuse your genie with experience points. (Time to use that enlightening cube/credit card...LOL)


For ease of explanation this menu has been divided into 4 sections. In section 1 you will see three options(Infuse with exp, enlightening cube, or spirit). In section 2 there is a little box this is where you will put your enlightening cube. Section 3 it a temporary experience bar. This bar will fill up while you are infuse your genie experience points. The few things that are going to be most important at first in section 4 is the level up button, infuse button, and the done button. Here is my screenie for this part of the explanation:


If you want to share your exp with your genie select the Infuse with EXP option. If you want to use the Cube, click and drag the cube into the little box provided and click Infuse with EXP Cubes. Finally if you want to use your spirit to give your genie exp, click the Infuse with Spirit option. After selecting the option of your choice, you can now begin the process of giving you genie exp. There are two ways to do this...

First:
You can click the Level up button. By clicking this button the program with automattically take the amount of exp needed to level and level up your genie.

Second:
If you want to control how much exp you give your genie then you must click the infuse button instead of the level up button. Click and hold the infuse button until you have infused your genie with the amount of exp you want to give him/her/it.

Now click the done button. You are now finished. Not so hard right?

Note: To buy spells you must go to the person who you got the genie from the first time. Be warned before infusing your genie with all your spirit points, understand that in-order to buy spells for you genie; you are going to need spirit and money. It is just like when you buy your own spells and skills. Also you can only hold so many spells at one time. I am not sure what determines how many spells your genie can have, so be careful and buy the one you really want first.

That is all for this tutorial. There is still lots more to know about the genies but this should give everyone the basic knowledge that they need to know in-order to level or trade their genie. If I missed something let me know. Thanks everyone for being so patient with me.

See ya in game,
