In-Game Party System
The purpose of forming a party would be to get added benefits while hunting in a group compared to hunting alone.
To form a party:
1) Press and hold Alt while clicking on the person you wish to form a party with.
2) Select the Party Icon(Handshake Logo) from the menu that appears.
3) Choose the type of Party you wish to form.(See below)

Once a party is formed, other players who wish to join the party must request from the current party members.

There are 2 types of party system:

Party 7 (Normal Party System)
This system allows players of any levels to form a party and hunt. The maximum number of players allowed in this system is 7. Thus the name Party 7.
Experience Points: Distribution will be according to level and number of members in the party. The more members there are, the more bonus exp there will be. However, the higher levels in the party will be getting more exp compared to the lower levels.
WZ: Will be distributed evenly among all the members.

Support Party (Mentor / Disciple Party System)
Think of this as the Mentor and Disciple relationship but only on a temporary basis. Only characters of level 20 to 51 may request for support from another higher level player. There is a limit of 2 characters only for this type of party.

Experience Points: Only the character who requested for support will be getting exp. He will get both his share and the supporter's(Mentor) share of exp. The supporter on the other hand will receive all the WZ including the Disciple's share.

A3 is a group play. U can solo as well but it takes a considerable more time and hp pots to get same amt of wz/exp/items. Its a myth that if u party u divide exp between players. Many a times ppl dont party coz of this. Let me state that each person same level player who comes into party decreases the exp gained per kill by abt 10-20%. If a player is considerably lower in level than u , u might actually gain exp coz of party.
Such a low level "boosts" ur exp gain. However since in a party, more ppl kills , hence its obviously more exp in same period of time.

NICE RESEARCH IC.

Well I am guilty of letting lot of ppl leech on me.
Though i must say it is not tht bad, as long as it is not made a habit.
Every party member should contribute to the hunt by way of luring monsters or giving pots etc. Just standing there and taking in all xp is not good.

Once in a while it is ok. I myself leeched on Warlike but the pact there was I used to heal him all the time, this led to him progressing faster and saving a lot of Wz.

The leecher as you guys call it would not really be a leech if he contributed properly like healing or giving away potions.

i think u should leech new guys to lvl 15 after tht leave them on their own. THey need to do quest for the lore points man.

I heal mages and leech in olgocs and dark olgocs. THe mages are only happy to take me along Razz .
They cant stand down there cause they use too many pots. I happily heal them and get all the olgocs together in groups.
Think this kinda stuff is allowed. Wink

I hate guys who leech for no use. Evil or Very Mad

Feel the pain of lvling warriors.

Brings back my past.I soloed as much as I could.Cant say quest where hard but, the drop rate is too low, and the NPC damn they get work out of us and pay little.There were days when I was totally out of money even to buy pots.Thanks to in-game friends who helped me out.

Then I switched to party(I put it party rather leeching, hope no one who partied would say I stood beside them and took there valuable drops Rolling Eyes ). I did what I could do for my lvl with them, mobbing.

If u dont know whats mobbing, it is to attrack the attention of the monsters and lure them to the person who kills in ur party.Big mob, the person killing gets is quest done quickly, all party members get good exp.

Here's an old post of mine on the subject of leeching..valthunder has an excellent reply with game etiquette (where's he btw )
http://www.forum.a3india.com/viewtopic.php?t=1534

None of those anti leechers (or in reality anti party ppl who dont get into any party due to there jerk-like behaviour) will ever come to reply this. Knock knock anyone ther?

my 1st point of contact was VALTHUNDER in a3..answered a lot of my questions.. i thank him for being so good to me..
i still have lot of questions..but no one to answer.. neither i see VAL in the game..
still ... if anyone can help.
how do i identify myself the grade of an item ??? i know the diff betn level & grade..the lvl of item is displayed when higlighted but not grade.??

please dont ask me to go to NPC..i want to learn.. i have read the crafting guide.. it tells you what is needed & how to craft, but doesnt tell how to identify the grade of an item.

i need a detailed answer.. help me please.

GET OVER YOUR FEARS!

GO TO THE NPC AND FIND YOUR REQUIRED WEAPON!

THEN COUNT THE WEAPON FOR THE SAME CHARACTER AND CLASS FROM THE TOP OF THE WINDOW TILL YOU REACH YOUR WEAPON, VOILA THE NUMBER YOU GOT WHILE COUNTING IS THE GRADE!

DON'T COUNT EACH N EVERY WEAPON, JUST ONES WHICH YOUR CHARACTER AND BUILD CAN WEAR.

FOR EXAMPLE, THE FIRST BOW YOU SEE WITH THE ARMOURY IS GRADE 1, BESIDE IT YOU'LL SEE THE CROSSBOW[DONT COUNT THAT COZ WE R INTERESTED IN BOWS ONLY] NOW FIND THE NEXT BOW, THAT WILL BE GRADE 2, THEN FORWARD IS GRADE 3.
