Getting Started

From a new Novice through Academy, First Aid Boxes, job changes, Achievements, Eden, Rebirth and Episode progression.

Getting Started on RagnaKon

RagnaKon follows an official-style progression path with a few carefully selected convenience systems. New players begin as Novices, learn the game through Criatura Academy, choose their first job, progress through normal class quests, and eventually unlock Eden, Rebirth, Achievements and Episode content.

Recommended: do not rush past the Academy on your first character. It introduces Navigation, Kafra services, equipment, skills and the first-job route.

Your Starting Items

A newly created character starts with basic Novice equipment and the first box in the beginner-support chain.

Knife

Starting weapon, equipped automatically.

Cotton Shirt

Starting armor, equipped automatically.

First aid Box (5)

Your beginner supply chain. Keep the next box you receive and open it at its required level.

First Aid Box — Lv.5 to Lv.95

The First Aid Box is a level-by-level support chain. Every box from Lv.5 through Lv.90 gives the next box, while the Lv.95 box is the final one.

These First Aid Boxes are restricted beginner items and cannot be freely dropped, traded, stored, mailed, auctioned or placed into a cart.

After Lv95 — Beginner Support Continues Through Achievements

The First Aid Box chain ends at Lv95. At Base Level 100, a separate support progression begins through the Achievement System.

Reach Base Level 100 → open Achievement → claim The start of another adventure! → receive Beginner Support Box (100). That box leads into the Lv110 and Lv120 support boxes.

Criatura Academy

After the opening tutorial, continue to Izlude and visit the Rune-Midgarth Royal Criatura Academy. New adventurers are directed toward iz_ac01 100,39.

Sprite: 4_F_01

Registration introduces the Academy and provides additional beginner support. After registering, continue through the Academy and prepare for your first job.

First Job Change — Academy Route

Requirement: Novice Job Level 10 and Basic Skill Lv.9. You must also complete the Academy registration.

RagnaKon lets a Novice perform the first job change directly inside iz_ac02. This is the recommended beginner route.

The Academy representatives also allow you to choose the traditional Job Guild route instead. The direct Academy route is faster, while the traditional first-job quest can be useful if you specifically want to experience the original class quest.

Second Job Change — Manual Class Quest

There is no universal Job Master for your second job. Once your first job is ready, travel to the appropriate class guild and complete the normal job-change quest. Second-job quests generally become available from Job Level 40; reaching Job Level 50 first is recommended so you do not give up first-job skill points.

Rebirth / Transcendent Class

Normal eligibility: you must be a normal second job at Base Level 99 and Job Level 50. Before the final Valkyrie step, all unused skill points must be spent.

RagnaKon keeps both ways to gain access to the Book of Ymir: pay the traditional library donation or complete the alternative library quest.

Route A — Pay 1,285,000z

  1. Go to Metheus Sylphe at yuno_in02 88,164.
  2. Choose to donate 1,285,000 Zeny.
  3. After payment, go to the Book of Ymir at yuno_in02 93,207.
  4. Read the Book to enter the Hall of Honor.
  5. Speak with Valkyrie at valkyrie 48,86 to rebirth.

Route B — Complete the Library Quest

  1. Talk to Metheus Sylphe at yuno_in02 88,164.
  2. Take the alternative dialogue route instead of paying 1,285,000z.
  3. Accept quest 5160 and hunt one Runaway Book.
  4. Receive Caught Book [6586] automatically when the correct monster is defeated.
  5. Return to Metheus and hand the book over.
  6. Read the Book of Ymir, reach the Heart of Ymir, then enter the Hall of Honor.

Rebirth Quest Walkthrough — Runaway Book Route

This is the free alternative to paying the 1,285,000z library donation. You only need to complete it once to receive permission to read the Book of Ymir.

1

Start at Metheus Sylphe

Go to Metheus Sylphe in the Juno library at yuno_in02 88,164. You must already meet the normal Rebirth eligibility of Base Level 99 / Job Level 50 on a normal second job.

2

Choose the Free Quest Route

Follow these dialogue choices:

Can't we just look at it? But not that much money. I will do anything. I'll look for it. Aren't you worried about the escaped book?

Metheus will then register quest 5160. Make sure the quest is active before hunting.

3

Hunt a Runaway Book

Runaway Book uses monster ID 2414. One is spawned at a random location on each of the supported fields, so you do not need to search every map—find and defeat one.

World map area around Juno used for the Runaway Book rebirth quest
Most of the hunting fields are around the Juno / Einbroch region.
yuno_fild01 yuno_fild02 yuno_fild03 yuno_fild04 yuno_fild06 yuno_fild07 yuno_fild08 yuno_fild09 yuno_fild12 ein_fild01 ein_fild06
How the spawn works: the Runaway Book has no fixed coordinate. It appears at a random walkable location on the field. The spawn scripts are designed to bring it back shortly after it is killed, so if you cannot find it immediately, keep searching the map.
4

Receive the Caught Book

When you defeat a Runaway Book while quest 5160 is active, Caught Book [6586] is placed directly into your inventory as long as you do not already have one.

It is not a normal ground drop. You do not need to pick anything up from the floor after the kill.
5

Return to Metheus Sylphe

Return to yuno_in02 88,164. His dialogue will now include I have found a book. Choose it and hand over Caught Book [6586].

The Caught Book is removed, quest 5160 is cleared, and you receive permission to read the Book of Ymir.

6

Read the Book of Ymir

Go to the Book of Ymir at yuno_in02 93,207 and read through it. Afterward, continue through the path to the Heart of Ymir at yuno_in05 49,43.

Touching the Heart of Ymir after the Book has been completed sends you to the Hall of Honor.

7

Speak with Valkyrie

In the Hall of Honor, speak with Valkyrie at valkyrie 48,86.

For the normal Rebirth route, you must have 0 Zeny, 0 carried weight, no Pushcart, no Falcon, no riding mount, and no unused Skill Points. Valkyrie will then change you into High Novice.

Short version: Metheus → accept quest 5160 → kill one Runaway Book → receive Caught Book → return to Metheus → Book of Ymir → Heart of Ymir → Valkyrie.
Before talking to Valkyrie: the normal rebirth route requires 0 carried weight, 0 Zeny, no Pushcart, no Falcon and no riding mount. Paying the library donation or completing the Runaway Book quest only gives you access to the Book of Ymir—it does not remove these final rebirth conditions.
