Introduction
Hello friends, I thought I’d throw together a little quick start guide for you all!
To note, this will never be an exhaustive guide, a lot of things you’ll find through self exploration… this is just to help you get started and clear the fog of confusion on some confusing things!
First of all - you need a wand for most everything.
If you’re a Demigod you’ll need to give the toon an Ivory Wand.
If you’re a ARCH (arch angel) you’ll need an Ebony Wand.
In short, Demigods are for data collection for the most part, with some problem solving ability, while arch angels are the “fixers” with spawning abilities.
Key Binds

– Activate wand, right click ground tile, choose protect. Does not appear in mines.

Notable features for Arch Angels.
- Use your Ebony wand. It does practically everything that a Ivory Wand does.
- You can instantly dig with your ebony wand. Completely ignores slopes.
- You can instantly dredge with your ebony wand. Ignores slopes.
- You can instantly disband a deed.
– Activate wand → right click token → settlement → disband settlement.
– Note; Will show your name in the event log as the disbander.
- You can found “permanent” settlements - cannot be drained and never runs out of upkeep.
– Just found a settlement as normal. Look carefully at the page where you name the deed for “make permanent”
- Spawning items.
– Activate your wand, right click on a ground tile → specials → create.
– Note; you can use * (any character, and any number of characters before/after this) for helping filter. Typing lock will get you Boat Lock, Door Lock… etc.
- Creating focus zones
– Activate wand → right click ANY item → create focus zone. Will be made centered on the tile YOU are standing on.
— “Name” - Just pops up a name in the event log when you enter.
— “Name with popup” - Same as above, but now also with a popup message that you can set.
— “NonPVP” - No PvP actions work in this zone. Can probably attack from outside in.
— “Hota” - Hunt of the ancients. You want to make this one pretty big.
— “Flatten [DIRT]” - This is a BIG one. Everything in the x-y distance you enter will be raised/lowered to your level as dirt. if you lower through rock, there will be 10 slopes of dirt put on top of the rock layer. Does no longer destroy mines in the zone you flatten. Use with care.
— “Flatten [ROCK]” - Does the same thing as Flatten [DIRT], but the dirt layer will be removed and there will be rock. Lots of rock.
— “House Wood” - Will spawn a pre-built house at 80ql. Ignores not being flat. Can make larger than Carpentry restrictions allow. Do not make too large though, the lag from loading a structure like that is BAD. Comes with roof.
— “House Stone” - Same as above, but stone.
— “Prem Spawn Only” - Players without premium cannot spawn in this zone. (I.E., tents does not work)
— “No Build” - What it says on the tin. Includes modifying slopes.
— “Tall walls” - Usable on settlements. Will create an automatic encirclement of tall stone walls at 80 QL. X, Y are distance from the edge (0 = starts at the edge of the deed)
- Changing terrain type.
– Activate wand → right click tile → specials → change terrain.
- “Painting” terrain
– Basically the bulk worker of Change Terrain.
– Activate wand → right click tile → “Paint Terrain” (or use bind [KEY] paint_terrain in console!)
– Determined by what the active Ebony Wands AUXDATA is set to.
— Activate wand → right click your wand → item → set data. What number you want to set the AUXDATA to is the number you can find in the list of Change Terrain.
— You can paint a larger area by setting DATA1 and DATA2 (1→9). If they are 3&3, they will paint a 3×3 area. If they’re 9&9, they’ll paint a 9×9.
- Instant, infinite, leveling. (TURN OFF YOUR SOUND BEFORE DOING THIS - YOUR EARS WILL BLEED OTHERWISE)
– Set AUXDATA of your wand to 1.
- Build house walls without spawning materials.
– Put wand in the Crafting Window with a wall plan as the target.
– Will always be 80 QL
