INTRODUCTORY GUIDE
IMPERIVM, explained step by step
This page summarises what is in the game and how to begin. You do not need to know every Metin2 system beforehand.
OVERVIEW
A Metin2-based MMORPG server
Create a character, choose a kingdom and play in a shared world. Missions, combat, trading and group activities advance your character. More complex systems unlock as you progress and remain documented in the wiki.
Choose what to do
PvE, PvP, trading and side activities remain separate paths.
Information is easy to find
The wiki, drop panels and maps help you find what you need.
Warrior
Close combat, defence and heavy weapons.
Sura
Sword and dark magic, with PvE and PvP specialisations.
Ninja
Fast dagger attacks or ranged combat.
Shaman
Spells, group support, fans and bells.
STEP 1 · CHARACTER
Choose a kingdom and create your character
Kingdom and character
You can begin in Jinno or Shinsoo. This choice sets your kingdom, starting town and community, but neither option is inherently better. If you play with friends, choose the same kingdom.
- Create the class you prefer
- Choose Jinno or Shinsoo
- Follow the early missions to learn the controls
STEP 2 · STORY
Follow the main campaign
Main campaign
The story is split into twelve chapters and begins in the shared County. Missions explain the areas, introduce characters and gradually teach the main features. Important choices are recorded in your journal.
- Twelve connected chapters
- Choices recorded in your journal
- Rewards suited to your progression
STEP 3 · COMBAT
Take on PvE and PvP
PvE and PvP
PvE includes Metin stones, bosses, dungeons and hunting objectives. In PvP you can join duels, rankings, guild wars, bounties and special modes. Target panels show useful information and rewards.
- Metin stones, bosses and dungeons
- Duels, rankings and guild wars
- Clearer target and drop information
STEP 4 · PROGRESSION
Develop your build
Progression and builds
Level and equipment are only part of progression. Talents, Biologist, Monster Cards, Alchemy, Runes, Aura, Gems and Talismans let you specialise. You are not expected to manage them all at once.
- Systems unlock gradually
- More ways to customise your character
- Materials and sources listed in the wiki
STEP 5 · ECONOMY
Buy, sell and gather materials
Market and professions
Your offline shop stays open after you leave. You can search offers across channels, check price history and post orders. Fishing, gathering, mining and archaeology provide other ways to obtain materials.
- Offline shops and cross-channel search
- Purchase orders and price history
- Fishing, gathering, mining and archaeology
STEP 6 · COMMUNITY
Play together and spend less time on chores
Community and quality of life
Guilds, voice chat, private messages and events support group play. Extended inventory, loot filters, channel switching and an informative map reduce repetitive tasks. Pets and mounts progress with your character.
- Guilds, groups and in-client communication
- Improved inventory and loot management
- Pets, mounts, weather and dynamic environments
STEP 7 · CLIENT AND SECURITY
Use an updated client and protect your account
Client and account security
The DirectX 11 client improves lighting, shadows and weather effects. Loading is optimised for maps and crowded battles. From the account panel you can enable 2FA to require a temporary code in addition to your password.
- DirectX 11 rendering
- Optimised graphics settings and loading
- 2FA and server-side security checks
