Parties & EXP Share

General Info

A Party in Trickster is a group of two or more characters that join together for various reasons. The most common reason people party is for an EXP Boost, or to do Monster Party Quests which net more experience than doing solo Monster Quests. They can also be helpful when attempting to beat powerful enemies, because it allows all people in the party to attack the same monster together, as well as having the option to share loot. This means that anyone in the party can pick up the loot a monster drops. The minimum number of people that can be in a party is 2, and the maximum number is 6. Depending on the number, level, type and gender of the party members, you will gain different EXP and TM Boosts, so a good strategy is to create parties that maximize the experience you get.

How To Make or Join A Party

There are two ways to make or join a party:

The first way to make a party is by inviting a person to the party directly. You do this by right-clicking on the person's character, and selecting Party Request. The person will get a notification, which tells them a little bit about the party: The average level, the party type, the amount of members, EXP Share, and Item Share settings. It gives them the choice of accepting or rejecting the party request. If you attempt to invite a person into a party when they are already in a party (and you are not), it will create an application that is sent to the Party Chief, who will receive a summary of your character and can choose to accept or reject your application. If both characters are in separate parties, it will be rejected.

The second way to make or join a party is by making a post on the Party Bulletin Board. You can access this by selecting Party at the bottom of the screen, or by pressing P. In the Party Bulletin Board you can create a listing for a party, and people viewing the Party Bulletin Board can see your listing. If they are interested in joining your party, they will click on it, and send you an application. You can also join a party through this Bulletin Board as well by clicking on the listing, and an application will be sent to the Party Chief.

Please Note: As everyone is able to see the listings on the Party Bulletin Board, sometimes people use it for advertising. These people are not looking to join a party, but are usually trying to sell or buy certain items.

Types of Parties

There are a few different types of parties that you can make in Trickster. Depending on the type, you will get a different amount of experience boosts. Party types change automatically when the requirements are met.

As a general rule, the more members in your party, the higher the boosts you get. (Unless you are in a Fixed party).

Normal Party

A Normal party is a party that does not fulfill any of the requirements for other parties. It is the default party. The Normal and Beginner parties have the worst boosts of all the parties, except Fixed.

Beginner Party

A Beginner party is a party that has at least one member that is at level 30, or below. (And does not have a member gap of 100 or more, where it would become a Fixed party). The Normal and Beginner parties have the worst boosts of all the parties, except Fixed.

Type Party

A Type party is a party that consists of four or more characters of the same type. It has better boosts than Normal and Beginner Parties, but is less than Royal or Special parties.

Royal Party

A Royal party is a party that consists of four or more characters as long as the party has at least one of every type (Power, Magic, Sense, and Charm). There can be multiples of a class in this party, the only requirement is that there is at least one of each type. This party cannot have all girls/all boys, or else it will become a Special party. Royal and Special parties have the best boosts out of all of the party types.

Special Party

A Special party is a party that is composed of all girl or all boy characters. If even one girl joins an all boy party (or vice versa) the party will no longer be a Special party, and will automatically change to a Normal or Royal party depending on what requirements the party meets. Royal and Special parties have the best boosts out of all of the party types.

Fixed Party

A Fixed party is a party where a person in the party has a more than 100 level difference to the Party Chief. You receive no boosts from these parties, and it does not allow Exp sharing.

Party Settings

As a Party Chief, you will be edit the settings of the party. If you are not the Party Chief, you will not be able to change this. To view this screen, select Party at the bottom of the screen, or press P.

Things you can change:

• Deny Request: Other people will not be able to join your party through requesting.
• Change Chief: Choose who will become Party Chief out of those in your party.
• Change Name: Change the name of your party.
• EXP Share: You can determine how much experience is shared in the party. For example, if the EXP Share is 25%, when you kill a monster 25% of that EXP will go to the other member. People generally turn this feature to NO, unless powerleveling. This allows you to get the boosts, and keep all of your EXP. EQ means equal. Level means it's calculated based on the level of characters in your party, with higher levelled characters earning more. Manual allows you to set the amount with some constraints.
• Item Share: Change whether people in your party can pick up other party member's loot or not.
