Well, I don't know about a beginner's guide, but here's a General FAQ on the dnestsource forums.
http://www.dragonnestsource.com/forum/qu...l-faq.html
As for what to do if you haven't researched or played the game at all, I guess I'll give you my general run down of stuff I wish I knew when I started.
-Your bag space is limited, so you have to learn to throw things out early. White gear is worthless unless you have nothing else to use.
-Visit a blacksmith (available in each town) to craft and enhance gear. Crafting is making gear, enhancing is making it more powerful
-Enhancing gear has a chance to make your item stronger, weaker, or even break it. Anything +6 or lower does not break. After +6 it has a chance to break
-Necklace, rings, and earrings can not be enhanced
-When starting out, you want to have a MINIMUM of all +6 gear. It's very easy to do and has a very very low cost. You'll have plenty of extra gear to try to go higher
-The 2nd way to improve armor/weapon/jewlery's power is by using sparks. It's the game's equivalent to the potential system in maple.
-To use a spark, you click on it, and drag the item you want to spark, then hit okay. It will add random stats to your item.
-The last way to become stronger is through crests. They are viewable by pressing "P" (to open up your character window) and going to crests
-Crests are items you can use that give straight stat boosts and are named via what stat they give. Ex - Fierce crests give critical damage.
-Left click to attack, right click to special attack
-Keybinds are a pain in the ass to set because you need to remove a keybind to set a bind. Ex - if I want to rebind "R" but "R" is already bound, I need to move what is bound to "R" to something else first before I can rebind it to something else.
that's all I can think of for now as far as basics go.
