Starter's Set

    Without a doppelganger card or tao gunka card to start with, it's really a tough task to do a speedy leveling. You still have to work it off level by level to reach the top level.

     Start from scratch no more. The update last August 26, 2013 has included several updates. One of the changes is the Starter's Set.

     The Starter's Set is a set of equipment and items that will assist you in your journey in Midgard from novice to transcendent job.  For starters, it would be really of great use! The effects will work when you're below level 200. It is made for PvE and you cannot PvP/WoE while wearing any of the items. Warping to WoE/GvG/PvP rooms and maps while having any of those equipment on is disabled as well.
