[edit] Tutorial Quests
As the name suggests, tutorial quests will teach you the basics of the game. Thankfully, the in-game explanations are accompanied by pictures, so even those not fluent in Japanese can follow along to a certain extent. Before you are allowed to accept quests from Snakeman and other NPCs, you must complete the following five quests.
[edit] Basic Training 1
When you first start the game, you will be introduced to Snakeman, an elderly man with an eyepatch who is accompanied by a Garm. He will handle a large portion of Acts, so be sure to remember him. When you are sent to the VR room, click on the nearby Snakeman NPC several times and listen(or watch) his explanations. For now, set the basic skills of the Attack(アタック),Guard(ガード) and Rush(ラッシュ) to your hotkey bank.
Basic Training 1 requires you to kill three slimes in the VR room. These slimes will not fight back, so take the oppurtunity to get used to the controls.
Once you are finished, talk to Snakeman and you will be moved to a new
VR room.
[edit] Basic Training 2
Talk to Snakeman and he will teach you how to use the guard skill. The gakis in this room will fight back when attacked, so knock them back and then use your guard skill.
Once you have killed three gakis, talk to Snakeman in order to move
on to the next room.
[edit] Basic Training 3
Talk to Snakeman and he will lecture you on the rush skill set, and
then have you gather three VR Training Certificates from the Will o' Wisps
in this room. Since the devils here are always in Defend mode, the rush skill
is the only way to defeat them in sensible amount of time.
Gather three certificates, present them to Snakeman, and you will be
sent to the last phase of basic training.
[edit] Basic Training 4
Snakeman will now teach you how to learn new Expert skills. Pay
attention to what he shows you. Once he is done with with his initial
explanation, do the same things he showed you and learn Agi from the Expert
skills tab. Once you learned it and set it to your hotkey bank, talk to
Snakeman once more and he will then have you kill one of the On-rakis that
is wandering around in this room. The On-rakis here can only be hurt with
Agi.
Once you killed the On-raki, talk to Snakeman and he will give you your
last lecture before sending out to the Virtual Battle. You are now free to
go out to the town and roam. Before you do anything though, finish the
last tutorial quest.
[edit] The Guard's Feelings
This quest will have you walk around the Third Home. In case you get lost,check the map, which can be accessed from the button in the upper-right hand corner of the screen.
Start this tutorial quest by talking to the guard(守衛) that is standing right outside of the Virtual Battle. He will give you a tutorial on the map and then send you to the Jakyo Manor, where you have to talk to the Master there.
Once you have talked to the Master, return to the guard once more and talk to him. He will now send you on an errand and will hand you a pink envelope. Check your ITEM menu to make sure you have the envelope.
Now go to the HomePoint Girl, the blue-suited lady that is standing in front of a rotating column. Talk to her and she will give you a tutorial on HomePoints. She will then ask you to click the HomePoint, ie. the rotating column, and set it as your revival point.
Once you have done so, talk to the HomePoint Girl once more and she will tell you that Snakeman is looking for people to work for him. You are now ready to take on Acts.
