Basic Guide

1. Getting there

There are basically 3 different ways how to get there from other planets:

paying a pilot and pay 40-45 PED to get there. Next Island is the most remote planet atm, and the charge is the highest. You could take stackables but ofcourse it is not risk free. You will not land on space stations.
pay a pilot to go to the Calypso space station for 10 PED, fly your own vtol to the Next Island space station 2-3 ped of oil, teleport down to next island for 7 PED. I would not advise taking any stackables with this method.
go with a Mothership , logoff , login 40 minutes later and you are safe at Next Island space station, unsure about the costs, but it is a way to transport stackables safely through Space, but could be considered an Exploit.

For more information about space and space travel see Space.

2. On Next Island

Go to the crystal new arrivals tp, and you will receive a scuba diving suit. Do the quests, in the third quest you will receive 3 time crystals from a droid called mary. Once you have the crystals, my advice is to put all your belongings in the storage on next island. Maybe buy some ice daggers from the auction, you will be able to hunt bigger mobs with these, Although you cannot use armour and big cyclops hit 50-60 ish.Also you can only use the herb box for a fap, which heals 12-16 dmg at 27 reload. There is one major advantage to ancient greece mobs: they do not regen! so you can keep dieing and coming back to finish a mob. The best thing you could do in Ancient Greece, is go with a couple of friends. That way you can team up using the tt longblades and kill anything in Ancient Greece. You will find there are not a lot of people on next island and the economy does not work.

3. In Ancient Greece

Ancient Greece Facts

There is no Mining
There is no Mindforce
There is only Melee hunting
Creatures do not regenerate

edit the box above

Once you made your mind up on what to bring, go to the cave entrance (mary gave you the coords in a quest called meeting the gods). Time-Teleporting will consume the time crystals, but you will get another 3 from the greek "keeper" at the other side of the time-teleport. You will also receive the white toga which is a bit decayed, but can be repaired. Swim or walk to thebes the big city in ancient greece and admire the nice work the creators have done on this mini-planet. You will find a market where you can buy the swords and the herb box. note: these swords and the fap break at 50%, so bring a lot if you want to do some serious hunting. It reminded me of axe 1x0 hunting in the old project entropia. My favorite weapons were the falx and the labrys, because they do decent damage, and have the most tt value all these sib weapons are repairable and it's nice for skilling longblades. You could do the ancient greece quests and get a free weapon or start exploring. On entropedia.info is a map with all the tp's The small cyclops didn't really loot that good, the minotaur mobs loot better, but are also a bit harder to solo.

Solo creatues:

Cyclops (really easy)
Achelous (easy)
Bullman (bit harder)
Asterion (doable for me up to provider but hard)

Creature spawns:

Achelous and Bullman can be found at olympia and sparta
Cyclops at Thebes amphitheater and sparta
At Dodona you will find small/medium sized asterion (a bit to the north of Dodona)
At Ephesus you can find big size Asterion. with a couple of in between deaths you can simply kill them, because mobs do not regen and the mobs are close to the tp and ofcourse there are no turrets.

Note: When you die you get teleported to a cave, there are three of these caves in ancient greece and they have all the standard deluxe facilities like storage, trade terminal, repair terminal etc. But there is no storage outside the cave, and you cannot tp to a cave. So if you forgot to put some stuff in storage you will have to press t or die to get it done. (which is a bit annoying)

4. Getting back

after a while you may get homesick or lonely ( there really aren't a lot of people in ancient greece yet) You simply go back to the time-tp with all your loot and belongings. My tip would be to buy some longblades and herb boxes before you tp back to next island and sell them tt+2 on calypso. those blades are not stackables.. so no risk of loosing them. Getting back to another planet Is the hard part. With no real economy and a minimum of players it took me three hours before a pilot landed. So make sure to sort the return trip in advance by befriending some pilots you could pm to pick you up.

Ancient Greece Creatures

There are basically two creature classes in Ancient Greece:

Minotaur Class

The 4 Minotaur Class Creatures are based on the same model and are hard to tell from each other by appearance only.
"Minotaur looks a bit bronzy in the bracers and shin guards, Achelous more silver, Bullman had a dark shiny with bluish sheen like gunmetal, and Asterion looks similar but maybe less bluish, polished iron or something. They seem to have different colored fur heads but the basic model of outfit and tatoos is the same." -Gretchen

Minotaur
Achelous
Bullman
Asterion

Cyclops Class

The Cyclops Class Creatures are based on the same model and are hard to tell from each other by appearance only.
