Metal Walkthrough

Note on cash shop currency (Blue Crowns): Buying $7 or more of currency makes your account "premium", permanently, which means you can queue tasks after sleeping at an inn. Everyone else is not able to do so.

It is highly suggested to spend Blue Crowns on more Character slots, Task unlocks and Companion slot unlocks. Nothing else is needed.
 * Create your character.  Make sure you pick the Hills of Simal, as that is probably the soonest needed skill for Metal, and probably most of the other Trades as well.  And since this is the Metal walkthrough, make sure you pick Metal as your Trade.
 * Do your first quest and work the docks. You can do that every 28 minutes, in case you haven't left n00b island by then.
 * Click the Shark Tooth tab and talk to the Ranger.  He wants some beer, so click the woman and open her inventory.  Buy the beer.  Now the Ranger gives you the map location for their camp.
 * Equip your gloves and staff by opening your inventory and left clicking them.
 * Go to the Ranger camp and learn exploration.  Don't bother to "Study exploration" because you can easily raise the skill via normal use of the skill on the main continent.
 * She gives you a torch which you want to equip now.  Don't head to the lake yet, there's a mid point you want to explore for a later quest.  Click the middle of the green plain between the forest with the lake and the Ranger camp.  Click Explore.  Keep doing it until the Quarry is discovered.  It will appear as a brown sign with a question mark on it.
 * Now click near the #1 on the map and click Explore.  The plateau will be discovered.  Travel to it and click the quest.  A companion will temporarily join your party. Enter the cave.
 * Keep moving into the cave until the 3rd room, which has a debris pile to search for loot.  Do so and equip the shield you get.  Keep moving East until you encounter the snake.  Defeat it, pick the mushroom and leave.  Head back to the Ranger camp and turn the quest in.  Click the next tab to get the potion quest.  Accept it and open your backpack.  Click the recipe to learn it.  Make the potion and turn in the quest.
 * Click the woman to get the book quest.  Click the ranger to get the Watchtower location on your map.  Click near the #1 on your map and Travel there.  Pick up the Novel and the Thesis.
 * Click the high rock cliffs right near the Ranger Camp and click Explore until the shack is discovered.  Travel to the shack, then to the Ranger camp and get the compass quest from the Ranger.  Travel to the shack, then the Quarry.  Pick up two lodestone.  Go to the shack and turn in.  Click the watch tower on top of the mountin and travel there.  Click the quest and travel to the pier.
 * Click Crane Harbor.  You will not be able to come back to n00b island.
 * Click the Captiancy tab.  Click the quest then click Work as Falconer Agent.  You can do that every 22 hours.
 * Travel to the Farm.  Turn in your quest.  Get the next one.  Open your backpack and learn the recipe.  Travel to Crane Harbor.  Click the Captain tab.  Get the quests.  Use the tickets to buy assistence with metal when you can.  Click the tin ladle tab.  Get their quests.  Smelt your Cassiterite. Travel back to the farm.  Turn in quest.  Get the new ones.  Buy the Dagger recipe from Karl.  Go to Crane Harbor and turn in that quest.  Buy the Chisel recipe from Tinhou. Make tin chisels at the Tin Ladle. Travel to Berius Delta.  Buy the Copper Sieve from Aboar.  Get his quests.  Equip the Sieve.  Prospect for copper once.
 * Travel to Pebble Bridge and click the quest then Prospect.  Cool down is 7 hours. Turn in Chisel quest. Travel to Crane Harbor and turn in quest.
 * Travel to Teasan. Get all the quests there.  Travel to the Charcoal Place.  Turn in your quest and work for some Charcoal.  This is best vendored for the money, as there is a better Fuel (Lignite) in a mine near Teasan.
 * Skill up to level 10 in both Foundry and Forging using the Apprentice work tasks in Teasan, then craft the lowest recipe you have in each category in order to "discover" more recipes. This saves you the cost of buying the recipes from the vendor when you can just discover them for free.  However, some recipes are "undiscoverable" and need to be bought from the vendor.
