User:Pdh01/Learning the Basics of Redemption

Welcome to Redemption! Redemption is a fully custom private server with custom items, NPCs and minigames. This guide is aimed to help you understand what each interface, command, NPC, and button does within this game.

Game Modes to choose from

When you create your account, you will be prompted to choose one of four game modes for your account. You can get special benefits depending on which game mode you choose.

Game Modes	Information
Normal	Normal mode doesn’t come with any benefits other than very fast xp rates. If you choose this game mode, you will be able to get max level in skills in no time.
Hardcore	Hardcore mode has slower xp rates, but it gives a 15% drop rate bonus. If you do not like this game mode and wish to play in normal mode, you can do ::removehardcore in-game to remove your hardcore game mode status. Keep in mind that this is irreversible.
Ironman	Ironman mode has slower xp rates, similar to hardcore mode. Ironman mode gives a 25% drop rate bonus, but you cannot trade other players or use player owned shops.
Group Ironman	Group ironman mode is where you and up to 4 other players can team up to progress together throughout the game. This game mode gives a 10% drop rate boost, and you get an additional 2% for each member on your team(max of 20% drop rate for a full team).

Important Tabs

There are a few tabs in Redemption that are very useful while playing the game. Here is a few of the most useful tabs.

Picture of the Tab	Tab Name	What is this?
[[File:Information tab.png|120x320px|left]]	Information Tab	This is the information tab; you can get to it by clicking the highlighted symbol at the top of the picture. It shows what your current drop rate, double drop rate, and luck percentages are, as well as your slayer task and the current daily event. The eight symbols at the bottom each open a separate interface which you can explore in-game.
[[File:Prayers Tab.png|size|orientation]]	Prayers Tab	This is the prayers tab. There are 3 types of prayers that you can use in Redemption. Normal prayers, Curse prayers, and Blessings. Blessings are powerful custom prayers that are unique to Redemption. You can switch prayers using the chaos altar just south of the ::arcade teleport. They grant boosts of drop rate, double drop rate, luck, damage, and soul split’s healing effect.
[[File:Staff List.png]]	Staff List Tab	This is the Staff List tab. It consists of a full list of the staff members for Redemption. If a staff member is online, their name will be highlighted green. You can private message any online staff member in-game for any help or questions. The “Help” button notifies staff and will get you assistance as quickly as possible. The “bug” button is for reporting bugs. You can add a full explanation as to how you found the bug, as well as a Gyazo link demonstrating it.
[[File:Quick Links.png]]	Quick Links Tab	This is the quick links tab. It is arguably the most useful tab. The links you can find in this tab are: Guides list, Membership, Group Ironman, ELO, Daily Tasks, Grand Lottery, Weekly Boss, Item Lottery, Season Pass, Compare Items, My drops(your collection log), Drops(you can find what items a npc drops in this interface), Prices(currently very inaccurate, a better method to get more accurate prices will be explained later), My deals(the current deals running for donations).
