Guild Backstory
Long ago, after William Wallace helped lead the resistance against evil, the "Wallace Sword", was stolen. Evil was released upon this world, Weredevil took it upon himself to start a guild dedicated to slaying the evil and returning the sword to its rightful spot to restore order.
In the heat of battle, Weredevil had sustained major wounds. In his time of rest, he passed the guild to Bandlaw and Chibibucky, who have taken up the mission to restore order to this world with the help of the other Heroes.
When Weredevil recovered, the Mighty Bandlaw moved on to fulfill his destiny by founding another Guild (Stranded in Paradise) to help carry the fight! Chibibucky moved on to help lead in another more powerful Guild (Relentless).
Who will be next to pick up the sword?
Only the brave and courageous need to apply - any levels welcome. Read our rules and apply to join today!
Guild History
Heroes of the Sword was founded April 13, 2007. After being quite active and reaching the top 250 in gold and XP the Founders WereDevil and Nightsingr had to temporarily quit the game to deal with a family emergency (Nightsingr's Father had pancreatic cancer and passed away end of 2007). We were gone for about 6 months. Came back around the 1st of February, cleared out all the inactive members (and thus became XP locked at level 57) and started Recruiting new members.
Around August of 2008, WereDevil and Nightsingr stepped into partial retirement, handing the guild over to Bandlaw and co-founder chibibucky, who have led the guild from 25 to 64 members, increased structures and increased membership participation. Our guild will forever be indebted to Weredevil and Nighsingr, as well as Lucoza for their contributions in bringing our guild up.
April 2009 WereDevil and Nightsingr Returned, allowing Bandlaw and others to move on to other areas as they desired. We have returned to the Top Guild lists both top 250 and Richest due primarily to the Efforts of Bandlaw as Founder.
We are now working to Recruit new Members to return us to our place on the top 250 lists.

Allies
Stranded in Paradise, Angels Home
Alliance: basically I see this as us being brother/sister guilds. All members or each guild should be willing to buff each other free upon request and our buffing rules above are followed. We also would not initiate any conflicts between each other and if being picked on by another guild then our allies would attack other guild if they have members who can successfully attack aggressor guild. (One conflict does not an aggressor make but conflict day after day does) We share advice and strategies and generally be helpful between each other.
Non-aggression Pact (NAP): The New Jedi Council, Intolerable Wolves, POWER METAL
Enemies
Currently no Enemies. Hmmm maybe We're too nice? Nah.. couldn't be.

Newbie Tips
Being reviewed for content update.
Stats and Buffs
- LEVEL UP POINTS (abilities)- Attack, Defence, Armor, Damage and Hit Points: Build attack and Damage in the Beginning then the Armor or Defence and Hit Points. Pick one and build to 100. If you can't decide, save them up. You will not lose them. Once allocated, you can't get those skill points back unless you do a reset with FSP
- SKILLS POINTS (Buffs) - Focus on one at a time when using Skill Points. A bunch of buffs with 10 Skill Points on each are useless. Once allocated, you can't get those skill points back unless you reset them for 100 FSP.
- New Recruit tip:-When you have a map full of monsters, on your keypad hit 1, then "r", then 2, Then "r", then 3, Then "r", all the way up to 8 if you need to. Do this in rapid succession. like: 1,r,2,r,3,r,4,r,5,r,6,r,7,r,8,r.. Then use the "w" key to move up on the map, "x" to go down, "d" to go right, and "a" to go left. any questions?
Training
- When out training, always walk in a pattern. This will help you cover the entire map. This also helps avoid doing any backtracking and wasting stamina. USE A MAP.
- Look for areas that have multiple monsters with high xp. Concentrate on them. Use the Training pages, it will help you determine what creatures you need to kill for higher xp gain.
- Levels below 140, try to get 1 hit kills.
Levels over 140, try to get 2- 3 hit kills if possible.
- You can attack multiple creatures at once by clicking on all the creature tiles in that spot. Battle will show for the Last creature you click on. This will save time.
- Remember to ALWAYS repair your items.
- If you do not want to watch the battle - Set the Combat Display Speed to "Instant", This can be edited in Character - Preferences, under Combat Display Speed. Also you can just click on "Back to World" as soon as you start the battle. this will save you time, since battles are pre-determined.
- When you are done training, try to stop at a relic to either take the relic or help defend it.
- Farming: Stay in one area attacking the same elite for the rare items to sell for FSP in the auction house.
- Generally Elites spawn every 5 mins
(xx:00, xx:05, xx:10).
No Portal close by
- Quickest and shortest way to get to a new world.
- Go into Personal Preferences
- Click on Instant Portal back to Krul Island
- Click on Misty Mountains, go down right to the Cathedral of the way
- Then straight up to portal
Upgrades - FSP
- 1-2 backpack slots (15 fsp)
- Several auctions slots. (20 fsp)
- Upgrade stamina gain per hour (25 fsp)
- Upgrade max Stamina to level faster (2 FSP per +10 stam)
PVP (player vs player)
- The BEST way to avoid getting a bounty placed on you when playing to increase your PvP rating or if you are doing it for a quest, return all the gold you stole with a little note in explanation.
- Attack inactive players (more than 24 hours idle) when doing PvP for gold. (possbily avoiding getting a bounty placed on you)
- Use more 100 stamina to receive more gold durning your attack.
Auction House
- Change preferences to your level and 5-10 levels under. Search for cheap items. Sometimes there are better items than the sets.
- For set items, you can put the name of the set in the search bar, all items within that set that are being sold will come up (example - Exquiste Elven)
Crafting
- You must use high crafting to get the better craft. Items can get worse if you use smaller crafting.
- Once an item is crafted - FSP cannot be taken out of it. So choose your items carefully.
