Guide's author — NeophronPK, Masterwork player

Basics

Guide is suitable for PK (Player Killer) players, who is planning their activity on MasterWork, but not familiar with the local features of this project, or played long time ago or at old chronicles.

Must know:

  • The project rules do not limit you at any PK activities
  • The project rules do not protect media persons
  • The project rules prohibit extortion

Buffs and teleports

Human Adventurers' Guide MW Club Manager located at all towns, including Floran, and gives to PK characters access to magical support and teleports to all towns, all region locations and catacombs.

To get access to MW Club you will need a special item — Club Card Club Card 30 Days NG

Club card can be purchased in a Personal Account or ingame from NPC Elemental Butler MW Premium Store / Elemental Mewtler Like Butler, but , or NPC Human Adventurers' Guide MW Club Manager

Magical support

All buffs are maximum level and last 60 minutes. Also you can make a buff profile.

Teleports

Club teleports are free and can move you to any location in a game world, equal to noblesse teleport.

Floran Village

How to return to the Floran Village:

  • Open Ivory Coin Store at MW Club Manager
  • Buy Dimensional Diamond for Ivory Coin
  • Talk to any Gatekeeper and select Exchange via Dimensional Diamond
  • Buy Scroll of Escape: Floran Village for Dimensional Diamond

Prices:

Don't buy another town teleport scrolls, they can't be used by PK characters

Don't keep all the scrolls in your inventory, they can drop. Keep the main amount in a Warehouse

Death Penalty

How to remove Death Penalty:

  • PK character can't remove Death Penalty by using Scroll: Recovery
  • To do that you have to go to the Hardin's Academy, by using Club Teleport > Location 21-40
  • Talk to NPC Darkelf Black Judge and select Remove Death Penalty
  • Darkelf Black Judge also can be found near the Floran Village. Leave the village through the southern gate and go to the nearest mill

Drop from PK character

Total chance of dropping items from PK characters lowered on MasterWork. In my observation, it equals to the chance of dropping items when dying from a monster in the old chronicles (C1-C4).

This items can't be dropped from PK:

  • Traditionally, Augmented weapons
  • Traditionally, Augmented jewelry*

To augment jewelry, you will need Accessory Life Stone. It can be bought from players, dropped from monsters or exchanged by NPC Blacksmith at the rate Life Stone x5 for Accessory Life Stone x1.

  • Weapons with PvP enhance
  • Armor with PvP enhance*

PvP enhance is made for Fame Point Fame Point NG at NPC Human Scipio Reputation Manager in Aden. More information about PVP enhance can be found here: PvP enhance.

  • All items with prefix MW — weapon, armor and jewelry received for coupons Starter Set Starter Set NG and Unique Set Unique Set NG *
  • Weapons with prefix MW Ivory, bought for Ivory Coin from MW Club Manager

*The higher the stage of the season, the higher the rank of items in these sets — from D-grade at the start of the season, to A-grade in the middle and late stages.

  • Costumes, accessories, cloaks and shirts
  • All consumables, potions and scrolls, received as reward for Mission, bought from L2 Store or Personal Account

Not all items are listed here. And, for example, if you know about Olympiad jewelry, that means that you don't need any guidance.


Class for PK

PK content suggests a completely different meta and this discussion would go beyond the scope of this guide and exceed it in a volume. All i can say is that you don't have to rely on your previous chronicles experience. On MasterWork auto-attackers are not at the top of the food chain.

Pay attention to skill-based classes with high movement speed - daggers, tyrants and gladiators. Or mages — as a less personal-skill demand option.
