Noob Set

Noob Set is a term often used to collectively refer the equipment a player first upgrades to upon leaving Rookgaard. A typical noob set is shown at right. Depending on weapon type preference, a Barbarian Axe, Spikesword, or Bow may be substituted. However, the spikesword is typically more expensive than the others, and by a greater margin on newer gameworlds. The noob set shown here has a total armor value of 21. The defensive value is 41 (26 shield def., 15 weapon def.) As a player improves his skills, gains some levels and saves more money, he will consider upgrading to the Plate Set. Wearing a "noob set" does not necessarily imply that a player is a "noob," merely that he either cannot yet afford better equipment, or that due to his low level, it would not be practical to carry better equipment.
