Et overblik

Lige nu er der 130 job i spillet. Alle jobs er sorteret i grupper mellem 3 og 6, afhængig af deres type. For eksempel "mine jobs" - Sølvminedrift, Udvind svovl, Udvind bly, Grav efter sjældne ædelsten, Udvind salpeter og Guldgraver eer alle fundet i samme arbejdsområde. Du kan finde et bestemt job ved at bruge minikortet.

Billedet herover viser en typisk jobside. De 5 hakker, øverst i venstre sektion af siden repræsenterer dine arbejds point og viser hvor god du er til det bestemte job. De to store cirkler i bunden repræsenterer fare og job motivation. Lige over cirklerne kan du klikke på knappen Arbejdstøj for at vise det bedste tøj til det job, som du har i dit inventar. Den højre side af vinduet viser de forskellige tider, som du kan udføre et job - 15 sekunder, 10 minutter og 1 time. Belønningerne er vist i de vandrette søjler. I rækkefølge er de erfaring, penge, maximum værdi af mulig produkt drop og produkt drop rate.

Under "start" knappen, er der en grøn hammer og ved siden af hammeren står der et tal der viser den nødvendige mængde energi der skal bruge til det enkelte job, hvilket falder sammen med motivationen der bliver brugt når jobbet er afsluttet på den enkelte arbejdstid. Afstanden til den arbejdsplads du har valgt, står i øverste højre hjørne i vinduet.

Ekstra information kan findes ved at holde musen over de enkelte elementer i jobvinduet.

Lås jobs op

Når du starter spillet, så er det ikke alle jobs der er låst op. For at låse op for disse jobs så skal du udfylde enten en af de to jobkrav:

• Opnå det krævede niveau
• Have det krævede antal arbejds point

For eksempel: befri saver kræver at du har 751 arbejds point, eller at du er på niveau 99. For at tjekke hvor mange arbejds point du mangler, så hold musen over job ikonet på kortet og et popup vil komme frem og vise med rød skrift hvor mange arbejds point du mangler.

I de tidlige stadier, er der nogle aspekter af et job der er låst. 10 minutter og 1 time jobs vil ikke blive låst op før henholdsvis niveau 10 og 20.

Forstærkede jobs

Forstærkede jobs genkender du ved at rammen om ikonet er sølv eller guld. Disse jobs er ikke synlige på minikortet og den eneste måde at finde dem er ved at tjekke alle jobgrupper. Hver dag (i løbet af natten) bliver de alle nulstillet og nye bliver fordelt tilfældigt på kortet.

Forbedrede job med sølv ramme giver et 50% erfarings boost, penge og droprate. Forbedrede job med guldramme giver et 100% boost. Den bonus der bliver tildelt far premium indtægts bonus og eventyr karakter bonus har effekt på den øgede indtægt (penge) men den påvirker ikke dropraten.

Cancelling work

It is always possible to cancel the work you are doing right now or jobs you have queued to be done later on. Just click on the X next to the job. The energy will be automatically refunded. If you cancel a job assignment while walking to the job site, you instantly jump back to the beginning point of your journey. If you cancel the 2nd job in your queue, the 3rd job is pushed forward. Cancelling a job in progress will not generate a report.

Labor points

Every job has 5 skill slots, the job represented above – Picking berries, requires 2 x toughness, hiding and 2 x fine motoring skills.

The skill points you have in each slot are added up to give the total labor points you have in the job. They are represented by the pickaxes, which can take the form of three colors

The green bar under the pickaxes represents the progress towards getting the next pickaxe. When you have all 5 at gold, the bar stays full. Hovering over this bar brings up a tool tip containing the total labor points you have for this job. To find out how many labor points a job requires, you should subtract the labor points shown in this tool tip and the labor points from the tool tip generated when hovering over the job icon on the map.

Example: - = 591 labor points required for Pick indigo

To get to the silver level, you have to collect all 5 bronze axes. 5 silver pickaxes are needed to reach the golden level.

It must be noted that the pickaxes are simply a representation for how good you are in a job. The amount of cash, experience, maximum luck value and product drop rate are directly affected by labor points. This increase in rewards is great initially, especially while you do not have the required amount of labor points.

Here are a few cases where the pickaxes play a significant role:

• If you have bronze pickaxes, it means you’re relatively unqualified for the job at hand. The danger levels are typically high. As soon as you get the fifth bronze pickaxe, the danger goes down considerably.
• Five bronze pickaxes represent sufficient labor points for that job.
• Experience increases with additional labor points if you do not yet have 5 bronze pickaxes at which point it stops increasing and it represents the maximum experience for that job.
• Getting all five golden pickaxes in a job gives a bonus of 50% in finding the job product.

There are various ways of gaining extra labour points in a job

• Gear: click the ‘work clothes” button to find the best clothes in your inventory for the job. It is advisable to do research to find out about other pieces of clothing which can contribute to a greater increase in labor points. You can either buy them in the stores, travelling merchant or procure them over the market. Here is a complete list of items.

• Item sets: Some items are part of a set that provides skill point and/or labour points bonuses. Some sets give job-specific labour point bonuses. Here is a complete list of item sets.

• Work instructions: These can only be brought from the union pacific shop or gained from some quests. These items are usable and have attacked a number of uses.

• Crafted products: There are various crafted products that provide labour points. These products work exactly like work instructions.

• Seasonal usable products: It was possible to get some usable products from tombolas and seasonal holidays that boost the labour points when consumed.

Rewards

Cash

Each job upon completion offers monetary reward. The cash received varies from job to job but provided that you have job motivation greater than 0% and you didn't pass out on the job, you will always receive cash.

The money you will earn is accurately represented in the bars on the job page – you will earn nothing more, nothing less than the amount specified when you started the job. When motivation drops, the amount of money you can get also drops. To increase the amount of money received, you can increase the labour points for that job or purchase Higher income premium. Adding more labour points increases the money but the formula used is not a linear function and the effect of extra labour points decreases with each additional point added.

Experience

Each job upon completion offers experience reward. The experience received varies from job to job but provided that you have job motivation greater than 0% and you didn't pass out on the job, you will always receive experience.

Experience is increasing with additional labor points until you reach the required labour points for the job (5 bronze pickaxes). The only way to increase the experience further is to find enhanced jobs which are silver and gold encircled jobs randomly distributed on the map.

Luck

Each job has the possibility of dropping an item. The formula that calculates the probability of a drop is unknown and secret. The Adventurer's bonus should increase this chance by 10%. The luck value displayed on the job screen represents the maximum value of the item. To find out the minimal value, hover over the luck value. In theory you have an unknown possibility of finding an item with purchasing value falling between the minimum and maximum luck value.

The luck varies from job to job, the most profitable jobs are considered to be Work as a traveling merchant and Grave robber. Irrespective of working time, the luck value is constant however longer working time has a better luck chance.

The luck value is increasing using a similar way as the cash, with additional labour points. Higher income premium affects the luck value as well as certain Item sets and recently introduced reward usable item like Lucky worker's clasp. However there is no way of crafting or buying such products.

Product Drop rate

Each job offers one or 2 products but some jobs offer a unknown random product. The chance of dropping these products is displayed using a percentage value in the job screen. Each time slice has a different product drop rate, larger time slice favoring higher drop rates.

Product drop rate is increased from 1% by adding extra labour points. The highest product drop rate is achieved by reaching 5 golden pickaxes where it receives a bonus of 50%. Adding additional labour points will not affect the product drop rate.

Adventurer bonus and Higher income premium are the only additional enhancements that can further increase the drop rate. To see a break down of all the bonuses, hover with the cursor over the product drop rate.

Danger

For all jobs there is an element of danger. Irrespective of working time, the risk of getting hurt is constant. The level of danger in all jobs is calculated by the labour points you hold in the job.

The injury chance is represented with a percentage, meaning that the chance of injury is straight forward a simple random number probability. The severity of the injury is a grey area and as of now we do not know how it is calculated, but it has a predictable pattern: low chance of injury usually represents a low damage and a high chance of injury higher or even very high damage. It is not possible to get knocked out in a single job with hull health. Adventurer bonus decreases injury chance by 10%.

You get hurt, relative to your health points, so while a person with 2000 health points can suffer a damage of 900 health points, a person with 14000 Hp can get a damage of 6500 health points. It all depends on the amount of labour points you have in the job.

The injury chance is different for various jobs and it is usually very grave for jobs that you have high negative labour points. Bringing the job's labour points to the required quantity usually greatly decreases the injury chance and it is further decreased with additional labour points.

Motivation

Motivation directly affects the rewards you can get from work – the lower the motivation is, the lower the rewards. Motivation affect experience, money and luck chance. It doesn't affect injury chance or injury severity, luck value and product drop rate.

Motivation is updated after the report is generated and affect the following job only. However if you raise your motivation (either with motivation buffs or the daily motivation increase), the increase will affect the report.

The motivation is represented in the motivation circle by 4 green balls. Each ball represents 25% motivation. When calculating job rewards, only the following decrements are considered: 100%, 75%, 50%, 25% and 0%. If the current motivation is 47%, the rewards suffer a 50% malus because the closest higher decrement between the immediately next lower decrement and immediately next higher decrement is used.

The motivation malus is applied to all affected rewards in the same way. If the job X offers 130 experience and $95 with 100% motivation then at 50% motivation it offers 130*50%=65 experience and $95*50%=$47.5 rounded upwards to $48.

Each job decreases the motivation according to the work time selected:

1. In a 15s job, motivation drops by 1%
2. In a 10min job, motivation drops by 5%
3. In a 1 hour job, motivation drops by 12%

Motivation does not replenish itself with time like health points and energy points. At 5AM the motivation for all jobs is restored to 100%.

There are certain buffs and crafted items which can be used to restore motivation during the day.
