Red Cliff MMO Beginner Walkthrough Guide

 For those of you who don’t know, Red Cliff Online is a movie-based MMO. Much like the historical action movie of the same name that was directed by John Woo, Red Cliff follows the story progression and development of player characters leading up to the involvement of defining the Wu, Wei and Shu dynasties through the battle of Red Cliff (also known as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms). It’s an epic storytelling MMORPG that contains some awesome features, such as a revamped combat system that allows players to counter-attack and block as well as evolve their character and profession separately with a two-tier leveling system. That's not to mention that the game sports mounted combat, commander-controls for giving NPCs and players orders and a very easy-to-use crafting system.

Now, it’s really tough to get stuck on a game like Red Cliff Online because it’s so easily streamlined with its quests, item retrieval and leveling process. The only thing gamers may need is a few hints on where to go or what tactics to employ when questing, leveling or grinding.

 As mentioned in the first section, it's quite easy getting acquainted with Red Cliff’s playing system. The quests are setup so that all related items and NPCs can be auto-traveled to simply by clicking on the appropriate name. Added to this, level-related quests are also logged so if players miss a quest a reminder will pop up after logging in showing what quests are available for completion.

The combat system is also quite easy to learn and master. Much like a lot of newer MMOs, such as Allods Online, it’s required to actually face an opponent in order to start or continue an attack. This is pivotal for PvP because someone who strategically advances around or keeps out of an opponent’s sight can ultimately prevent the other player from effectively hitting them. The other neat part is that the same applies for fighting NPCs as well.

Keep in mind that a lot of cool stuff that can be encountered in Red Cliff usually does not become accessible until after reaching level 20. This includes gaining access to a mount, getting your military weapon class up to level 9 as well as being able to utilize certain crafting professions.
