i read the sticky but i still am a little confused. i started off with the wizard, got to 7 or so, deleted it (mistake #1) and used my 50 gold to unlock the priest. got to level 6ish and died, oddly enough i was able to respawn and keep playing, i thought it was once you die, youre dead....and now im level 11, should i sell my healing potions somewhere and then delete my priest to make a ranger?

ur first death is "for free", so u get ur char back.. will not happen again
healing potions are not worth anything
check realmeye.com for trading
dont delete chars, better let them die

and i would suggest to keep playing with the wizard or the priest to get to know the game, but its up to u
ranged chars are better for starting playing than melee chars.. y i know, archer is a ranged char too

pm me when u have got a char with at least 50 fame and i'll toss u some starter gear

I asked for that sticky to be removed forever ago. Game has changed sooo fucking much.

The basics are still pretty much the same. The only real big difference is pets.

dont use your gold to unlock classes, they can be achieved through regular gameplay

i'd suggest check out the newly restored Wiki here http://www.realmeye.com/wiki/realm-of-the-mad-god
or some guide like bluenosers. (idk if its still up to date)
