The Rules Of Starsonata

There are many rules made to keep Starsonata a fun and safe environment for all ages. There are some rules you can break that will get you banned from playing such as: Racism, sexism, harassment, and real life threats. Some rules that you can break will just get you muted such as: Circumventing the swear filter via repeated misspelling, Switching to a alt to avoid a mute, All caps for a prolonged chat despite warning, Attacking a chat mod because of a mute (May result in a ban), English only, Advertising that you are buying or selling an account or credits (May result in ban), Talking about anything that has to do with hacking, Arguing about a warning or a mute, Only one post per 6 lines in trade chat. One serious offince is exploiting a bug. If you exploit a but you will be banned. If you follow these rules you wont have to worry about getting muted or banned from the game.

The Starsonata Forums

The forums on the Starsonata main site will be a big help to you. The admins on the game will post important update information and new events coming up. There is also a forum for Help, Suggestions, and Misc. Using The Lyceum Archives will be easier most times to find information about the game. Besure to follow all the rules (same as ingame) so you wont get in trouble.


Talking In The Chat Rooms

The Chat Rooms are as follows: All (ment for talking about anything), Trade (ment for talking about buying/trading/selling items only), Help (For levels 19 and under), Team (ment for talking to your team mates), Moderator (Only for moderator use), and Galaxy (you can only talk to people in the same galaxy). The more you talk on All Chat and Galaxy Chat people will get to know you. Becarfull of what you say because it will effects your reputation. The one thing you really don't want is a bad reputation. People will most likely not trade with you, invite you to there team, or help you if you have a bad rep. If people really don't like you they might try to kill you. Also if you abuse the chats you will get muted.


Starting With Your New Account

Once you make your new account for the game and log in you will be in a ship called Zebucart, and it will have a IonCannon (Weapon), a shield, energy, engine, and escape pod. You will start off in a branch of The EarthForce Trading Outpost which is located in The Nexus sector. Your account will be level 0 when you start and you will beable to level it up to level 20 for free. You will need to pay to level above 20 and get your class and also use different skills.


Getting To Know The Controls

Learning the controls to the game will be very easy. To shoot your weapon you push the Space Bar, to target a item move your mouse over the desired object and click on it (you will need to target the object to shoot it), to go forward push the Up Arrow on your keyboard, to go left push the Left Arrow key on your keyboard, to go right push the Right Arrow key on your keyboard, to go through all the objects visable by your radar push the Tab button on your keyboard. To auto piolet to a object target it then push V on your keyboad. To use Astral Travel(skill needed available in Sol) go to your map and dubble click on the galaxy you want to go to(galaxy jumps must be equal to the astral travel skill you have).


Leveling Your Account

To level your account you will need to find a A.I Ship(computer controlled ship) to kill. For you to gain X.P that A.I will need to be your level or above. The amount of X.P you can get is locked at up to 510 depending on the level A.I you kill. There is only 1000 X.P you have to go through to pass a level. Every time you pass a level you will get 5 skill points. Those skill points can be used to incress your tech levels (pioliting, shielding, Etc). Most skills will incress the amount of skill points needed for each level as you raise it.


Starting Missions

To start a mission you will need to go to a A.I Base. The missions that you can to will be listed under the genral tab. Missions will get you rewards like Items, X.P, And credits. Some missions will be hard so they wont be unlocked untill you get to a high enough level


Making Money

The best way to make money at a low level is to kill things scoop the drops and sell them. Most items can be sold to a A.I base. Some items you will have to sell to players and they are mostly going to be more valuable. When you get to a higher level caping infernos will be good to make money. They sell for over 10 million credits at a hidden base in Glass Matrixs. You will need R.C 8 and Weapons 6. To cap them you will need a radiation weapon and a Prismatic Conversion.


Joining A Team

When you just barely start dont expect to get on a Top Ten Team. They are all high levels and they wont beable to help you much. Join a team that does not recruit in Nexus(they always are inactive and wont be any help). MAD+ is a good learning team for Pay to Play accounts. A good team for Free to Play accounts is Spaze Bluu Hunterz. You can always switch teams if you want they do not control you.


Choosing Your Class

For low to mid levels you should have your class set to drone master. It makes your drones stronger so you will beable to fight harder things and level faster. To choose your class you will need to start the mission in sol. It is call Specialization. once you start it all you have to do go to a galaxy called Lyceum and dock at the main base and complete the mission. Once you complete the mission more will pop up. Those are the types of classes. If you want to be a drone master choose support. Follow the instructions on the mission windows and you will have 1 support focus skill. After you get that skill go dock at the Locus Of support or what ever base you chose your skill for and choose what you want. In Support Focus you will need engineer to get drone mastery.
