You may find what you're looking for by searching in the [[https://discord.com/invite/hE5DaKpGqb official Discord server]].<br>

<u>'''Questions will not be answered if you are using MODs.'''</u>

MOD development is supported, but usage is at your own risk.

Symptoms like game freezes or save data corruption are '''frequently''' reported.

(You can play without MODs by launching Steam with the "-nomod" launch option.)<br>

==Major Changes from Elona==
===Material Transformation===
All scrolls for material transformation have been removed. Material hammers have been implemented. You can obtain them from randomly generated elemental statues/earth statues in the field/Nefia.<br>
There are also shrines that can only be used in that location called "Material Hammer."

===Wishes===
To activate the well, you need the "Fragrance of Goddess" (consumed when wish), and the strength of the generated wish items depends on the "Black Cat's Saliva" (not consumed).

===Luck Status===
Does not affect blackjack or drop quality (enchantment strength).

Link: [[Elin:Attributes|Attributes]]

===Guild Affiliation===
You can be affiliated to all guilds at the same time.

Link: [[Elin:Guilds|Guilds]]

===Killing Little Sisters===
Killing them does not decrease the spawn rate of Big Daddies. There is a penalty, but you can negate it by rescuing more.

===Faith===
There are no restrictions on apostle acquisition; if there are three or more apostles in the party, they will start fighting.

==About Gameplay==
===HP Recovery is Tough===
At first, you should make bandages with simple crafting.<br>
Learn the natural healing skill from a trainer.<br>
You can cast spells on the entire party by holding down the hotbar key.<br>
If you hold a spell, you can also right-click on the target to heal.

===Status is Decreased and in Red===
You are receiving a weakening attack. You can recover using the "Restore" potions for each ability, or a healer in the town can treat you.

===Enemies are Too Strong===
Selling reputation at the town's information dealer lowers the difficulty of generated Nefia and requests.

===Taxes are Too High===
Hover over the tax amount display on the home bulletin board to see the breakdown.<br>Base tax is 500 times the number of years passed (maximum 5500), and fame tax depends on reputation points.<br>You can sell reputation points to the information dealer in town.<br> (If it’s still tough, refer to the [[Elin:Player Guide|'''Player Guide''']].)

===Trouble with Lack of Base Items/Facility Recipes===
First, check the following NPCs for items for sale:<br>・The Shadow of Mysilia "Fiama" (after she disappears, she can be found in Willow)<br>・The Frontier Inspector "Loytel"<br>・The Talesinger of Olvina "Farris"<br>・Tinker's Camp: The caravan master "Nino"<br>・Palmia: The acting mayor "Nora"

===Missing Specific Feats===
Some feats require the acquisition of prerequisite skills.

===Not Enough Hotbar Slots===
[[File:Widget_Sample.jpg|thumb|none|alt=Place an appropriate container (the image uses a cargo box).|Place an appropriate container (the image uses a cargo box).]]
Abilities can also be placed in containers or the inventory.<br>
By placing spells or special techniques in an appropriate container (the image shows a cargo box), you can effectively expand your toolbar.

===Map Only Displays Images of Mountains and Sky===
【If you have MODs installed】

It is likely due to MODs. Please try removing all MODs.

If that doesn't help, there may be corruption in your save data. Try reinstalling the previously removed MODs and launching from a backup.

If that still does not work, recovery of that data might be hopeless. Unfortunately, using MODs is at your own risk, so you may have to give up.


【If you do not have MODs installed】

First, try checking the integrity of the Steam files or reinstalling the game.

If it still doesn't work, it is likely due to some bug. (Occasionally, it can also be due to hardware failures/settings errors.)

Please send a bug report described below and wait for a response.

===It Might be a Bug!===
Proper bug reports are welcome. Please follow the steps below.

#Remove "all" MODs added from the workshop and check again (this is often due to MOD bugs or version discrepancies).
#Try asking in the PortKapul (Japanese): #elin-初心者用-質問チャンネル of the [[https://discord.com/invite/hE5DaKpGqb official Discord server]].<br>
#* If you are confident that it is definitely a bug, you can skip this step.

#Report the bug in the #elinバグ channel on Discord or by pressing F11 from the game.
#* When reporting, please summarize as clearly and concisely as possible what happened, when it occurred, how you confirmed it was a bug, and include any testing content and results if you did such.

Effects not yet implemented.

===Furniture Tickets===
While holding the ticket, right-click on the item you want to exchange it for.<br> The secretary in each town will exchange contribution points for tickets.

===Can you bring back altars/statues (shrines) found in Nefia?===
It is possible, and there are various methods, but all require knowledge and techniques.

As you can see from the weight, they are not designed to be easily brought back, nor are there any special benefits.

Here are just a few hints. Please experiment with various methods yourself.

*Material hammers, feather scrolls, collection tickets.
*While fully overweight, return and escape magic are invalid. Moving forcibly while collapsing will result in death. At that time, drop any items causing the collapse at that location.
*Even items that are classified as "collapsing weight" can be lifted, thrown, or placed.
*Items can be picked up or moved from one cell away, even on the global map.
*Stairs can be accessed by checking from one cell away.
*If the setting to not automatically use stairs is off, if there are items on the stairs, they will be automatically picked up while moving through the map.
*If you carry it to your own land or the city's delivery box, it will be secured.

===Where does the delivery box deliver to?===
