User blog:Jacksper/Newbie Handbook

Don't worry, we were all Newbies at one point. The creator well, he may not have been but he doesn't count anyways. This is a blog for those of you who don't know where to find all the Help-Articles and also a way to get tips for training, and RP. Some of the things in this blog will be linked to other pages on the Wiki and it is important to note that it is AGAINST wiki rules to link to other wiki sites.

Creating your Character
Navigating this wiki can be somewhat frustrating seeing as some of the information that you want or need can be hard to find especially since Blala has like a million different pages that talk about a million different things.

Each character starts out with a specific race and gender, these two defining things are very important to the creation of your character. This wiki uses a speed-based battlesystem. You calculate the ratio of your speed to others like this: User1 speed is 10, User2 speed is 8. You then insert the users name in a Randomizer of some kind, there are various randomizers for you to use but a simple one that I enjoy using is this one.

Step one: Choosing your race
I replaced the wording because I like writing so... But this is what races are there to be offered, and I'll explain some minor tactics.


 * Saiyans: Saiyans have the most powerful transformations, but low speed. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Zenkai (Receive +2 in all stats if you are pushed under 1/3 health and survive, or +4 if health is under 1/5), Mind Read (Block all of opponents next attacks (once per battle)), +5,000 HP, or All stats +5 (temporarily if an ally falls under 1/5 of their HP in battle).


 * Humans: Humans are weaker than most races, but can learn the most abilities. They also gain more zennie than the other races. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Earn X1.5 more money on any job site, Human-Only Martial Arts moves, A free senzu bean every other week, or learning techniques 25% faster.


 * Halfbreeds: Halfbreeds are the perfect mix of their parents. They also have slow growth, but become incredibly powerful at high levels. Allowed 1 skill from each parent race.


 * Namekians: Namekians are strong and learn the most techniques. And are able to learn defensive and offensive transformations. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Mental training (Earn X1.5 more XP), Home Planet Training (Earn X1.5 more XP while on Namek), Kaiokosen (Stun opponent for 1 turn), or Slow Regeneration (Regenerate 5% HP every other turn).


 * Ice-Jins: Ice-Jins have the most speed, but suffer from a low attack. They can also fly through space without using a spaceship and have their own racial 100% Power technique. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Breathe in Space, 50% off Planet Trade Organization, Mechanical Second Chance (if you would normally die, a robotic body would be built for you in a week (once per character) (will become a ice-jin/android hybrid)), 10% HP recover after transforming.


 * Androids: (Energy Stealing): Energy stealing androids have low stats. Must steal stats from defeated or weakened opponents to get stronger. Also, gain these skills: Absorb energy attacks for damage boost, and absorb the shock of physical blows for speed boost.


 * Androids: (Perpetual Energy): Perpetual energy androids only use half the normal speed and have high attack power, but can't rest and needs to upgrade through the use of items bought at the shop. Also, gain these skills: Hypnotize another android, Absorb parts from another android.

Demons: Demons have high stats, but grow in power slower than other races. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Stone Spit (cannot move or defend incoming attack), Silent Speed (makes any 1 attack undodge-able), Materialization (Summon a sword, food, or anything to help you in battle), or 25% chance more attacks will connect.
 * Aliens: (Any other race no listed here): Aliens borrow many traits from other races and are the most diverse. Also pick any 2 skills from any race.


 * Majins: Majins are very weak, but regenerate fast enough to avoid being obliterated. You can also pick 2 of the following skills: Regeneration (regenerate 20% HP each turn), Forced Entry (Take control of one enemy for 1 turn), Variable Form (turn into any item to help your allies, then regenerate back), or Absorption (must be executed by battle, but for one day, absorb another character and gain 1/2 of their stats, and learn 1 racial technique)

Now onto the stats you can get from each race:


 * Saiyans: 1 speed, 3 damage


 * Humans: 2 speed, 2 damage


 * Namekians: 2 speed, 3 damage


 * Ice-jins: 4 speed, 2 damage


 * Androids: (Energy Stealing): 1 speed, 3 damage


 * Androids: (Perpetual Energy): 2 speed, 3 damage


 * Aliens: 2 speed, 3 damage


 * Demons: 4 speed, 4 damage


 * Majins: 5 speed, 1 damage


 * Halfbreeds: Mix of their parents numbers

One thing to note is that Androids are the ONLY Race so far to have two different types. Now the best tactic is to choose a r ace that has a moderately high speed and another race that has a moderately high damage. Demon's have the highest starting stats but they mature more slowly, so it may seem like they are disproportionately stronger but they're actually equalized to other races.

Any race can be mixed with another but you can only mix 2 races at a time to make a half-breed, the children of these half-breeds can have more mixed blood than their parents but similar rules apply to the abilities they can have. The possible best race in my opinion to choose from are Saiyan/Majin hybrids, Human/Demon hybrids or Android (Perpetual Energy) that is a hybrid with any of the races listed above. As you get more money the Androids can be augmented with Android parts/chips that will make them stronger, it will also allow you to get big stat gains fairly quickly which can be very good at low-levels.

Each race has roughly 4 abilities each and only 2 can be chosen, this goes for half-breeds which can genrally have 8 racial abilities to choose from but still can only choose 2 of them. A Majin has the ability to Absorb, but also to Regenerate fairly quickly, a good strategy for them is to always choose Regeneration as it is their "signature" ability, and at higher levels it is very hard to kill a Majin because of it. Androids don't tend to have as valuable abilities as others, but Androids (Energy Stealing) have the ability to gain stats from others by draining their energy (through their hands like Android 20.)

There is a certain dignity to being a pureblood... And the most widely used race is that of a Pure-blooded Saiyan, although that race is arguably the worst race to choose to pure-blood from. But there are work arounds.

Player Cards
Now this is where good Coding comes into play, but there are lots of Player Cards to choose form that work very well if you're not good with HTML coding. The majority of the player-cards are found in certain categories like the ones.
