Kritika: Menu and UI Guide

This will explain the basic functions and segments of the game.

Anything that needs full attention to detail will have their own post with redirect.

Mirror

This is typically what you'll see upon entering the town after prologue,
so a little explanation:

1. System Menu

 -Pressing Esc brings this menu up. As you can see, the left side is all the System-related stuff Right side is Community stuff. Individual buttons will be explained below.

2. Chat Window 

 -Little Gear Icon lets you choose what you want to see, you can push out tabs and other stuff.

3. Channel Ticker

 -Change Channels with that instead of using the System Menu if you'd like. In Battle, it shows you the dungeon name and difficulty via color:
Easy, Normal, Hard, Heroic (aka Hell)

4. Area Map

 -In Battle, red dots indicate engaged enemies. Typically you can't move on untill all enemies are dead.

 -It's probably better for you to get familiar with the town icons yourself.

5. Quest Tracker

 -You can tag up to 5 quests to follow. When you enter a dungeon, you'll only see the quests that pertain to that particular dungeon. You'll also see a Scroll next to the dungeon name indicating you have quests there. Simple Stuff.

6. Fatigue (FTG) Gauge

 -Yes the little green gauge is a FTG bar, and yes this game runs on a FTG system.

 -Often there are events where you receive rewards or bonus buffs for consuming FTG.

7. HP Gauge and Skill Tree Indicator.

 - HP Changes colors depending on which debuff you've taken.

 Slow/Frozen - Your speed slows down or you stop completely. During super armor skills you resume the skill once freeze wears out. 

Burn - Minor/Major damage over time (dot) depending on the power of the element.

Shock - Character involuntarily flinches in intervals. Very annoying without super armor skills.

Poison - Attack hits you with fixed ratio to your max hp, then proceeds to do smaller dot damage in ratio to character hp. Nasty stuff.

Mortal Wound - The initial hit isn't so bad, but while you're inflicted with Mortal Wound any subsequent attacks will take off a % of your hp depending on how powerful the wound is.

As for the Skill Tree Indicator: You can purchase a 2nd one via cash shop or market. Pricey stuff, but you get a second skill tree. Mostly good for a PvP build alternative.

System-related (Red Button) Stuff

※System Config

Graphic, Sound, Sensitivity related stuff here, as well as community settings.

Click here for a full System Config image guide.

※Control Config

Character Combat Mode and Hotkey layout configuration can be found here.

Click here for a full Control Config image guide.

※Channel Menu

Brings up a list of all the channels and levels it's recommended for. Being on the right channel gives you an exp and item drop bonus so don't miss out on that. Alternatively, you can use the top right of your screen to change channels.

※Event Board

Shows you the current Events, Cash shop deals, and Update information going on with Kritika at the moment. Clicking the banners opens a web page to that particular thing.

※2nd Password

Also known as the automated foreigner banning feature. If you're not going to keep a permanent log of your 6-12 digit password and you're not Korean, then don't bother using this. If for some reason you need to see this, here's my translation.

※Quit Game

I'm sure you're going to want to at some point.

※Gay Pony Orgy

Something very few will ever see, unless you're into that kind of stuff you sick nasty pervert.

Community Related (Black Button) Stuff

※Inventory

Mirror

Opening Inventory allows you to view character stats, PvP Stats, and Titles.

You'll unlock more inventory space as you level. Locked partitions indicate the level that they disappear.

※Quests

Mirror

Quests are usually super simple stuff. Kill Monsters, bosses, break items, return to NPC. In few occasions you'll need to "Clear All Sectors", Get "X amount of Chain kill X times", "X amount of Back Attacks", "Kill boss in X minutes", etc. I'll be sure to provide a list of these vague quests later on to use as reference.

※Skills

Mirror

Kinda self explanatory, right?

I'll have a big big guide of all the skill names and descriptions along with their awakenings up soon, half the classes are done at this point in time and christ am I tired from all the typing I've done for that damn thing.

-The game warns you to double check before finalizing and warns you when you're canceling your point additions, so there's some safeguards when working on your skills.

-You can right click a skill to see a video of it in action.

-Casting-type skills require you to aim the skill before it takes effect.

Warning: Smart Cast function is basically auto aim for skills, but it's very buggy depending on the map terrain. If you were to, say, aim it at an enemy standing on the side of a hill, the skill takes effect right behind your char. Use Smart Cast at your risk.

※Titles and Emblems

Mirror

Titles are a big part of your stats.

-Completing all the title quests for Lv1-60 Area and Dimensional Library Titles gives you Permanent Stat bonuses indicated at the bottom.

Of course, Dimensional Library is a pain in the ass since you have to do 480 Runs between four different dungeons to clear it.

-Titles also have their own stats, so that's nice.

-2nd Page is Emblems. Emblems you purchase from the cash shop as a part of a special deal or from the Market, they come with several stats.

I may do a translation of all title requirements later on. Until then, this brief description remains here.

※Friend List and poking people with Right Click

Mirror

Really now?

I shouldn't have to explain.
Left is Friend List, Right is wot happens when you Right Click a person.

- +10 Favor when you give people on your friend list a gift. Max 5 Gifts per day.

- +50 Favor when you receive gifts. You're limited only by the amount of active friends you can find.

- You can purchase a present for 500 Favor. These have random minor items inside it.

- Ranking Stuff is purely for e-peen purposes.

Unless you're a jackass and way into those things, don't worry about it.

※World Map

In case you ever wanted to see the world. It's a bit confusing to follow via the zones as reference because allm has no idea how coordination works, which is why they've actually moved area locations a few times since release. Honestly I don't think they have it down still.

※Mail

Mirror

Oh Boy, mail. Who's up for some Blues Clues?

-Sending people mail consumes the daily limit set by market usage so keep that in mind.

※Market

Mirror

Mirror

Well what did you expect from a Market.
-Just so you know, the automated "current cheapest seller" function is very accurate.

※Ch. Party aka list of parties on the Channel you're currently on

No Image! Well I'm a lazy person, what do you expect from a guy who can't be bothered to post daily on his own blog?

Anyways, you can join parties and change the settings of your parties to be specific to levels and what not. Maybe I'll put up a translated image later who knows.

※Guild

Opens Guild Window. Bit lazy to be doing translations for that so yeah. Perhaps later?

※Cache

Opens your Cash Shop items from Events or Cash Shop Purchases. Most items don't expire unless it indicates in yellow on the item description.

※PvP aka broken and unbalanced garbage

Opens the PvP window. Word of advice, if you aren't a Shadow Mage, Cat Acrobat, Demon Blade, or Berserker, or if you're fighting these types, then prepare to have your ass handed. As far as PvP is concerned, these are the only classes in the game.

Updating parts of this guide with fixed links soon!
