It is most frustrating if someone has a username and a password and is still unable to log in the game or forums (thus cannot ask for assistance). Here you can find some possible solutions.
If you registered for the game, you received an e-mail with an activation link. If you didn’t receive the e-mail, you might have mistyped your e-mail address or possibly, your mailer program mistook the message for a spam. So first, check your spam folder. Then you can try modifying your registration, correcting your e-mail address and ask for a new activation message. If you are unable to proceed, get in touch with us (Help button) and if all else fail we will activate your character manually.
If you have activated your registration but you still cannot log in:
1. When entering your password check the CAPS LOCK button.
2. Many browsers have an auto-complete function. which might have provided an incorrect password if you use the same username elsewhere. Try deleting and retyping your password.
3. Check the date and the time in your system settings. Allow cookies in the browser.
4. If all else fails, use the Forgotten password link. You will get a new password to your e-mail address. Try logging in with that.
5. If it doesn’t help either, write an e-mail to info{kukk}doomlord{ponty}net, tell us what operating system and browser you are using and we will try to sort out the problem for you.

What should you do if you are attacked too many times?
There is a lot of help inside the game to assist novice players; there are a lot of topics in the forums as well about this topic. However it is worth summarizing this information here. Well, as far as you are able to find this topic...
It might be the case that someone feels that he is attacked too many times by players stronger than him and they steal his SE, keep his HP down so he cannot get ahead. What can you do in this case? Fortunately, there are a lot of options, just read this topic carefully.
1. If a player decides to attack another one, he usually takes two points into consideration: the equipment and the sum of the ability scores.
1.1. It is quite easy to increase your ability scores. Click on the character sheet in the main menu. Beside your ability scores you can see a grey or green cross. If you click on a green cross, you can increase the ability score. A grey cross means that you do not have sufficient SE (so you have to go hunting). An important notice: the lower the ability score, the easier it is to increase it! So it requires much less SE to increase each ability score from 20 to 21 than to increase one from 26 to 27. If many players attack you, always increase your lowest ability score making the sum of your ability scores higher thus making other players ignore you when choosing a victim. Although Attack is more useful than Magic, but if you increase Magic as well, other players will think you are stronger and will not attack you.
On the other hand, if you spend all your SE to build in a clan, you will not be able to increase you ability scores, everyone will see that you are weak, and players will keep attacking you. If you click on the Highscores, you can check other players of your level. If their ability score sum is significantly higher than yours, concentrate on increasing it.
1.2 The other important aspect is the equipment. If someone misses a part of their equipment, especially if it is the spell, they are attacked more frequently. If possible, try to get one of every type of equipment (weapon, armour, shield, and spell). If you get them, you need to replace them only every 4-5 levels. If you are saving SE for a new item, try to get as many APs as possible and try to complete as many hunts as possible in a row, so others will not be able to attack you. Of course, you might get a few attackers, but in the worst case you will lose only a few SE, worthing a few hunts. If you are saving a lot of SE for a new item, check your character after hunting, because if you leave a lot of SE at the character for 1-2 days, quite a lot will be stolen from him. So choose a time carefully, so that you can check your character after the hunt. Don’t save SE for an item until you have increased you ability scores to the amount appropriate for your level.
1.3 Attackers have another point. They prefer to attack those who are not members of a clan. The reason is simple: members of a clan can spend all their SE on building. Those who aren’t, will always have some loot. So try to join a clan that looks viable and has perspective as soon as possible.
1.4 In the options menu you can write a brief description of your character. In many cases a witty/interesting description might deter attackers.
1.5 Beginners get 6 ancient stone for completing the fist quiz. It is worth spending these stones on premium membership (left side, Premium membership), because if you are a premium member players can steal less SE from you.
If you have an average ability score sum, have got a few items and are a member of a clan, you might not be attacked at all.
2. How can I save SE for a new item?
The most common reason for a player to feel frustrated is when he is collecting SE for a new item and he is often robbed. There are several ways to avoid this:
2.1 As I mentioned above, try to accumulate a lot of APs and spend them all at once.
2.2 If you replace an older item (except weapons) then you can sell your previous item as well before buying the new one (though only for 25% of the original cost).
2.3 A crucial trick: if you HP is under 15%, you cannot be attacked! If you are saving for, say an item worth 1500 SE and you already have 3-400 SE it is worth attacking someone so that your life decreases (even to 1). You lose a little SE, but then you can save the remaining SE in safety.
2.4. If you are in a clan, ask the other members to give you a hand. Players who are assisted are usually not attacked. The button for assistance can be found on the main page of the clan, on the right hand side.
3. Invisibility
Invisibility is the final resort if all else fails and it is also the method for players who prefer a peaceful game style. On your character sheet you can find a button called Invisibility. If you click on it, you will get to the description part from where you can activate it.
If you decide to become invisible, you can still be attacked, but you will get bonuses that make it almost certain that you win the duel. Consequently, invisible characters are usually not attacked; it is almost as good as total invincibility. Anyway, if you are invisible, you should still increase your ability scores and purchase items to make you a less appealing opponent.
Invisibility has two major disadvantages. For one thing, you cannot attack other characters either. For another, you get less SE and XP when hunting, so you will advance less rapidly. Of course this does not necessarily qualifies as a disadvantage, because those players who kept attacking will get ahead and will not be able to attack you because of the level difference. Please note that the minimum duration of invisibility is 24 hours.
4. Resting
Don’t forget about resting (check the button on the left side). When resting you regenerate much faster and you get 10% defense as well. This does not mean a lot (+2-3% chance of winning) but at least it is something. Try to use resting 3 times a day. If you are not hunting and you miss some HPs, click on it.
5. Protection potion
The soul-huckster sells protection potions under the misc. category. Protection potions significantly increase your chance of winning when attacked by a more powerful opponent. And it has no hindrance like the invisibility has. However, it has a cost.
There is a lot of help inside the game to assist novice players; there are a lot of topics in the forums as well about this topic. However it is worth summarizing this information here. Well, as far as you are able to find this topic...

If I go hunting and I turn off my PC, will the hunting continue?
Yes, hunting does not happen on your PC but on the server. Your PC only displays the result.
If I interrupt the hunt, do I lose the activity point?
No, you don’t. It is refunded.
I have purchased premium membership but I didn’t get extra action points.
Premium membership does not give you extra points immediately but gives you 25% more points every day for a week. So in one day you get 37 APs instead of 30. Exception: when you start the game and buy PM immediately you get the +7 APs at once.
How often do I get Action Points?
You get the APs steadily during the course of the day, so you get one every 48 minutes.
I have to hunt down 3 tiny monsters but I cannot find one.
Be patient, sooner or later those tiny monsters will start coming.
What does it mean that the maximum number of APs is 400 instead of 250?
Players get 30 (premium players 37) APs every day. If you don’t spend them, you can store for them, they are not lost. 250 means that for about 8 days if you don’t log in, you won’t lose any APs. Afterwards you will start losing APs. Players with premium membership can store APs for 11 days. If premium membership expires for a player who has 400 APs he will have 250 APs automatically.
I cannot raise a skill or ability. What is the problem?
In 99% of the cases it means you do not have enough soul energy. If the (+) symbol next to your ability or skill is grey, it means you do not have enough SE. You can check it by simply moving the pointer over the (+), the amount needed to increase the skill/ability is displayed automatically. If the + symbol turns green, it means that you have accumulated enough SE.
Where can I find detailed description about abilities?
The detailed formulas of the abilities are not public. For a player it should be enough that can be found in the game manual.
How is it possible that I get beaten by a player with significantly lower ability scores and equipment while I have premium equipment from soul stones?
If two perfectly identical character duels the chances are 50-50. This is modified by abilities, items (which in fact are also ability modifiers) and character levels. Since the game is designed for a long term, 4-5 difference in abilities and the bonuses provided by a few low-level items does not change that 50% to 100% but rather to 60%, so in 10 battles you will still lose 4. At higher levels significantly bigger differences might exist between players, but you will never have a 100% chance to win a duel, you can still miss and your weak opponent might land a hit. Of course if at level 20 you attacked a first level character you would win, but there is no possibility for this in this game.
How can I turn a burnt-out ancient stone into a real one?
When you buy stones your burnt-out stones turn into real ones too. Read the encyclopedia about burnt-out stones.
Why can't I sell a weapon that I am wielding?
You cannot sell the weapon that you are wielding (i.e. currently equipped) only if you equip another weapon because you cannot fight with your bare hands. You cannot remove your other items either only if you equip a new one in their stead. However you can sell your other items, even if they are equipped.
If I sell a premium item do I get back the ancient stones?
No, unfortunately not.
How can I remove the focus crystal from an item and insert it into another one?
You cannot, you can only replace focus crystals (but you lose the original in this case)
How can I use a spell that I have purchased?
You need to equip it like any other equipment, so you simply click on it on your character sheet.
Can I set up my character so that I do not use a spell against another Doomlord?
No, you can’t. You can buy a stronger spell later and use a lower level spell against weaker opponents to save spell points.
I have uploaded a picture (I got premium membership) but it is not displayed.
Approval of pictures takes time. Please, be patient.
I have purchased an ornamental collar but I cannot find it anywhere. What happened to it?
You can equip the collar on captured and trained beasts, like you insert a crystal into a weapon or armour. If you don’t have a trained beast you cannot use it. However you can still sell it to the soul-huckster.
I got a quest to find Drakin/Horde commander? I don’t know where to look.
There are some quests that you can only finish if you reach a level and you can read about them in the legend section.
How can I capture and train a pet?
You need to reach level 4 to be able to learn skills. Then you have to learn the trapping skill, for which you need the learning skill at level 3. Afterwards during your hunts you may capture animals depending on the levels of your trapping skill (automatically). You have to learn the pet training skill (at learning level 4) to train your pet.
Why was my quiz question evaluated as wrong?
Read the Evaluation of quiz questions section in the complaints forum. If you have further questions, you can ask them in the quiz forum.
I have defeated another Doomlord but I received 0 XP. Why?
When dueling, you can see a percentage beside the name of each Doomlord: 100, 80, 40 or 20. This number depends on the number of times the particular Doomlord has been attacked in the last hour. The more times he has been attacked, the less SE and XP you will get. If it’s 80, you will receive 80% of the original XP, if 60 then only 60%. If you received only 1 XP, the 40% of it would be 0,4 which is rounded down to 0.
I did a quest but it does not show as completed. Why?
Many people make the mistake of forgetting to accept the quest. You have to click on the quest to make it active.
What happens if I discharge the soul-well?
On the left, you will see a Misc button. Clicking it, you will see an option "discharge soul-well", but only after you have filled up the soul-well. Rest assured, you can click on it without any adverse effect, you will not discharge it immediately but get a brief description. Please read it.
Will there be a second world?
At the moment the game has only one world, but another one will be started on..... You can have one character on a world but you can start a second character on the second world.
Can two people play from the same PC?
If one player controls two characters, the built-in algorithms will detect it and the characters might be banned temporarily or permanently. If more players play from the same PC and you would like to avoid being banned then take care not to attack each other or the same characters. And preferably join different clans.
I have recommended someone who pays for ancient stones but did not get any.
Ancient stones and SE for recommendations are debited once a day, at midnight.
Can I redeem ancient stones or give them to another player?
At the moment it is not possible. (See Terms of use)
How can I delete my character?
Settings under your picture, delete character. Please note that this is final and irreversible.
Can I send a message to all the members of my clan?
We are aware that other games have this option, but it is not really useful, because everyone used these messages to communicate and the forum was neglected. Messages are for personal communication, any issue worth of public interest belongs to the clan internal forums.
I the problem still persists, you can ask a question in the Help topic.

Please note that you can evaluate posts. You can also filter out posts with low scores. To do this, choose Profile, then Profile information, and set a minimum value (like 2 or 3). So if a post is useless or spam, most people will not read it, because it gets filtered out. Users also get a score, based on the average score of their posts. To be able to start a new topic, you need a minimum number of 50 posts, and also an average score of 6 or better.
