Greetings,
as I've been asked to translate guides from Zezenia.pl I'd like to share them here, so you'd help me to correct any linguistic mistakes I've surely made. This guides were not made by me, so I'm not responsible for the information they provide. I've just provided the translation of them, but if you find any information that are not correct anymore - please, report it here too.

First one:

Vocation choice.

Description: This guide shows strong and weak points of each vocation. I hope it will help you to decide who to become.

The Mage

Mage's characteristics:
- hitpoints gain: 5/level
- mana gain: 15/level
- leading skill: magic level
- secondary skill: defending
- irrelevant skills: melee, distance
- available subclasses: pyromancer, shaman, warlock
- possesses the strongest healing spells
- inflicts magical damage, relatively the greatest damage in game, which however require great expenses spent on magical mixtures
- a mage doesn't need to constantly improve his or hers equipment, most of mages money is spent on better wands and mixtuers
- while fighting, a mage keeps a safe distance from his or hers target to avoid melee injuries
- in a clash with the strongest and fast monsters a mage has small chances of survival without using his or hers support spells
- at first a mage is gaining his or hers experience quickly, but after some time it may change and depends on players skills


The Ranger

Ranger's characteristics:
- hitpoints gain: 15/lvl
- mana gain: 5/lvl
- leading skill: distance
- secondary skills: defending, magic level
- irrelevant skill: melee
- available subclasses: marksman, rogue
- ranger's healing spells effectiveness is way lower than mage's
- to fight, a ranger uses distance weapons (e.g. bow, crossbow) and ammunition (e.g. arrows, bolts) without a shield or projectile weapons (e.g. stones, boomerangs) together with a shield
- injuries inflicted by a ranger depend on his or hers distance fighting skill and the weapon he or she uses. That's the reason a ranger needs a constant training combined with large financial outlays (especially destined on new weapons and ammunition)
- a ranger fights on range, that's why he or she should keep a safe distance from the opponent to avoid melee injuries
- in a clash with the strongest and fast monsters a ranger has bigger chances of survival than a mage because of higher hitpoints quantity
- a ranger can gain his or hers experience quickly, but needs a very high level of his or hers leading skill

The Warrior

Warrior's characteristics:
- hitpoints gain: 15/lvl
- mana gain: 5/lvl
- leading skills: melee, defending
- secondary skill: magic level
- irrelevant skill: distance
- available subclasses: barbarian, paladin
- warrior's healing spells effectiveness is way lower than mage's
- to fight, a warrior uses melee weapons (e.g. swords, axes, clubs) together with a shield
- damage inflicted by a warrior depend on his melee skill and the weapon he or she uses. That's the reason a warrior needs a constant training combined with large financial outlays (especially destined on new weapons and equipment to both inflict greater damage and block enemies attacks)
- a warrior fights directly in the first line, facing every monster eye to eye. In case of group hunts, a warrior is performing the function of a blocker and lurer - his goal is to lure the potential victim to the place, where rest of the team - so called shooters - wait
- in a clash with the strongest and fast monsters a warrior has the biggest chances of survival because of high hitpoints quantity, defending skill and equipment
- a warrior can gain his or hers experience quickly, but needs a very high level of his or hers leading skill

Third one:

Trading

Description: Trading - Several very valuable informations about how to sell and buy items.

Safe trade - how to trade with other players.

As you know - you're not alone in Zezenia. It will happen pretty often that you'll need to either sell or buy anything. In the next part of this tutorial you'll read about the system of trade, market and NPC Yasin - which is considered one of the richest characters in Zezenia.

To start a trade with other player, and therefore open the "trade" window, you need to type this in the main channel:
#trade [player's name]
e. g.
#trade Blackmore

Be aware! The "#" sign is important here, as it's essential to accomplish a trade, while a lot of players forget about it.

When you'll type your trading partner's nickname the following window should appear:

Next step is dragging the items you want to trade there. Those items must be located in your bag or backpack. If you'd accidently drag an item which you don't want to trade there - it's not a problem as you can drag it back to our backpack. This system let's you to safely trade multiple items without using a bag. Another thing you have to be aware of are your backpack's free slots. You need to have enough of free slots, as otherwise - item's that you would trade can drop on to the floor, and therefore - be stolen by other players.

When you'll be ready to trade, just press the "lock" button, which will make your trading partner sure that you will not drag your items back from the trade window. The items field should change it's color to green then. The same thing happens when your trading partner locks the trade. When you'll be sure of your decision just press "accept" button which will cause the trade to be accomplished.

Fourth one:

Necklace of Reversal

Zezenia Online Forum Screenshot

Description: A few words about the amulet that protects your equipment in case of your death.

This item minimizes equipment loss in case of a death to just lossing the necklace itself. Necklace of Reversal assures you that you will not loss any other, expensive item as long as you're wearing it. Unfortunately, purchase of this amulet is quite of an expense. To acquire it - you have to pay 30,000 gold coins and 10 premium cards (Assuming that the average price of a premium card is 4,000 gold coins, then one-time purchase of the Necklace of Reversal is an expense of about 70,000 gold coins. If you're interested in buying the amulet - head to NPC Yasin in Ben Qarassih and type "buy necklace of reversal" to him.

Fifth one:

Killing other players

Description: A few very important informations about what consequences might be brought to you by killing other players.

Intorduction

Generally, playerkilling is permitted in Zezenia, although restricted by the game rules and daily, weekly and monthly frag limits.

Frag limits are:
- three frags scored within the time of 24 hours result in a redname
- seven frags scored within the time of of a week result in a redname
- fifteen frags scored within the time of a month result in a redname

Redname

If you'd go beyond the frag limit, your nickname will become red colored. It's results are:

- every players may attack you without any consequences
- going beyond the limit again will result in an automatic banishment of your account for duration of 20 days
- in case of a death you'll lose 10% of your current experience points


How to get rid of a redname

To remove your redname you just have to visit NPC Colin, who resides in a small room under the Culthan's bank. Unfortunately to remove the redname you need to pay him 50,000 gold coins.

The original guide is here.

Sixth one:

Party

Description: A guide for those that like to hunt together. A very useful option when your level is high.

Zezenia Online Forum Screenshot

Creating a party

To create a new party you just have to type #party at the main channel.

Everything should go according to the plan as long as your level is at least 2 and you're not a member of another party. Assuming that you fulfil the requierments, a new party will be created and you'll be it's leader. From now on you have the right to invite other players to the party.

Joining a party

If you've been invited to a party and you wish to join it - you have to type following command in the main channel:

#join [player's that invited you name]
e.g.
#join Blackmore


After joining a party, a window with the list of party memebers will appear (The list itself, apart from party members nicknames includes their level, hitpoints level and mana level). Additionally, every party member's health bar and nick will change it's color to blue (This rule doesn't apply to players with a redname). This way it's easier to identify members of your party.

Leaving a party

Just right click on the party window and select "leave party" option. If you're the party leader, the leadership will be passed to the person that joined the party just after you. A party will be disbanded when it's last member will leave the party.

Restrictions

To avoid cheating, party system has some limits. You will not gain any experience if you won't see the moster that a member of your party killed, you stand on a different floor than the monster killed by a member of your party or you stand in a protection zone.

Logging out during a fight

If you'll log out during a fight, and won't return before the monster will be killed - you will not gain any experience. If you'd log in, and join party again, you will gain experience accordingly to the time wherein you've attacked the target.

Sharing experience

Experience gained by one player who is a member of a party is based on the following equation:

(experience/sum_of_party_members_levels) * player's_lvl

e.g.:
Two players (Level 100 and level 50) went to kill the Hrekkand (3000 experience points). No matter, what hits did they deal. First player (Level 100) will get 2000 experience points, while the second player (Level 50) will get 1000 experience points.

Because:
(3000/100+50)*100 = (3000/150)*100 = 20 * 100 = 2000
(3000/100+50)*50 = (3000/150)*50 = 20 * 50 = 1000
