      Combat
      Combat is one of the simplest classes to level. Combat is action-based, requiring you to kill something to gain experience. The difficulty rests in finding the right mobs to kill. Two important factors in combat are your hitroll accurascy(HR) and damrolldamage (DR). Hitroll is your character’s accuracy while damroll is the amount of damage your character deals. There are a number of items which makes combat easier such as the platinum chain bracelets sold on Corellia. There are plenty of other items that will boost your stats, but you will have to find them on your own.

      To see if a mob is stronger or weaker than you, use the “consider <mob> full” command.The fastest way to kill something is with a blaster. To change the setting of the blaster, use the “setblaster command”. If a battle is not going well, use the “flee” command to run away.

      Due to the anti-powerleveling code, killing more than 10 of the same mob will render virtually no experience. It is important to keep moving around to different areas to get full experience.

      Piloting
      Flying spacecraft is one of the most exciting features of any Star Wars mud, but can be challenging to those unfamiliar with the system. First things first, you need a spaceship. A rental shuttle can be used by using the ‘taxi’ command at any landing pad (note: this requires 400 credits and a comlinks). Open the shuttle using the command “open <ship name>” and board the rental using “board <ship name>”. Once aboard, proceed to the cockpit and use the “launch” command. Once your ship has completed the launch sequence, you will be in space. Three important commands are the “radar” command (which shows the coordinates of objects in the system), the “proximity” command (which shows the distance of all objects in the system), and the “stat” command (which displays vital information about your ship).

      To travel to another planet, you will need to calculate a hyperspace route. Type ‘calculate <system name>’ to plot a random hyperspace jump. The calculations take time, and to check the status type “navstat”. Once you get a message confirming your course, type “hyperspace” to make the jump to lightspeed. The hyperspace jump will take some time, but once it is complete you will emerge in the new system. To get to the planet, it is highly recommended you microjump closer to the planet.

      To do this, use the radar command to get the planet’s coordinates. You cannot jump directly to the planet, so add 500 to any one of the ‘X Y Z’ coordinates. To calculate the jump, use the command string “calculate <planet name> <x coordinate> <y coordinate> <z coordinate>. Once the calculations are complete, enter hyperspace. Once you exit hyperspace use the command “course <planet>” to aim your ship at the planet. Note that you must be traveling under 100 speed to enter orbit. To slow your ship, use the command “speed <speed>”. Once you enter orbit, you can land. Type “land” to get a list of landable objects. Type “land <object>” to get a list of landing pads, and “land <object> <pad>” to land on the pad.

      Diplomacy
      Diplomacy can be one of the most rewarding classes role-playing wise and are huge assets to any organization. The majority if diplomatic leveling is quest based, until you are able to use skills to level. There are a wide variety of package quests to level diplomacy. The most basic is the package delivery system. Type ‘help package’ for more information. The package delivery system will give you package(s) to deliver when you are at a delivery center. Not only do packages give diplomacy experience, they also give a decent amount of credits.

      Another quest-based method of leveling are the ‘official documents’. These documents can be found on various worlds and are to be delivered to the Representative on Coruscant. These documents vary in experience.

      Engineering
      Engineering is a purely action-based leveling system. It is one of the easiest classes to level but hardest to perfect. All that is involved with engineering is building containers until you can makejewelry.

      Espionage
      Espionage is purely quest-based leveling. There are numerous packages to deliver to level espionage. One of such, considered the ‘motherload’ because it gives espionage, slicer, and diplomacy experience, is found on Corellia. The package must be delivered to a wandering mob. There is another espionage quest on Wroona; check the private investigation service building.
