First and foremost... Welcome to Zeah RSPS. There's a TON of fun content ahead!
Our slogan is Play Your Way, so it goes without saying that there's no one correct way to progress.
That said, this page aims to give new players tried and true methods to get going towards achieving common goals.
Note: Help installing Zeah can be found here. Ironmen can checkout this page for an IM-focused start.
Upon logging in your first time, you will be prompted to choose three important account conditions...
SG Model 30px.png MODEL SELECTION
The Character Creator interface is easy to use, giving the player arrows to choose a character model.

SG Mode 30px.png GAME MODE SELECTION
Game Modes define how players interact, progress, achieve, and experience Zeah.

Considerations for selecting your Game Mode:
(Note: A player can later downgrade some account types.)
  1. Do I want to be able to trade & level VERY fast, but have a low Luck Rate (drop modifier)?
    — Go with Normal
  2. Do I want to be able to trade & have a medium Luck Rate, but a slow level progression?
    — Go with Master
  3. Do I want to play solo & trade-restricted & slow XP & medium Luck & costless deaths?
    — Go with Ironman chat badge.png Ironman
  4. (Same as #3), but I want to play in a group with my friends with a shared bank?
    — Go with Group ironman chat badge.webp Group Iron
  5. Do I want to play #3, but without the ability to bank, the hardest game mode?
    — Go with Ultimate ironman chat badge.png Ultimate
  6. Do I want to play solo & trade-restricted & slow XP & high Luck & ONE LIFE ONLY?
    — Go with Hardcore ironman chat badge.png HC Ironman
  7. (Same as #6), but I want a death-limited group with my friends with a shared bank?
    — Go with Hardcore group ironman chat badge.webp HC Group
SG House 30px.png HOUSE SELECTION
Houses are exclusive content to Zeah, which give the player various themed bonuses (passive & active).
HouseSelect.gif
Considerations for selecting your House:
(Note: A player can later swap Houses via House Swap Tokens.)
Will you focus on Magic & Summoning, such as unlimited runes while House Aura active?
— Go with Arceuus
Perhaps focus on Herb & Farming, such as instantly noted herbs while House Aura active?
— Go with Hosidius
Possibly focus on Craft & Smith, such as coal-less smithing while House Aura active?
— Go with Lovakengj
Maybe focus on Fishing & Thieving, such as auto cooked fish while House Aura active?
— Go with Piscarilius
Finally, might you focus on Slayer, such as auto NPC aggression while House Aura active?
— Go with Shayzien

Silver FitAsAFiddle.png Getting Around

How do I get around Zeah or to my slayer task?
The TP Nexus in northern ::home, will be your best way of getting around in Zeah as a beginner.
To get to the TP Nexus, use ::home command then walk directly north and click on the rotating object to pull up the TP interface.
In the interface, on the bottom left, there is a search option that will allow you to quickly select your correct destination.
You can also type in an NPCs name, and it will bring up the majority of locations those NPCs are located, very useful for slayer.
You can favorite places you frequently travel to, and can access your favorites by clicking 'Favorites' or via the F Hotkey.

TP Interface, searchable by Slayer Monster too!

Silver CoinCollector.png Making Money

How do I make money (GP) on Zeah?
For starting GP you have many options, but a general progression would be:
Thieving (Fish Stalls) ➤ Slayer / Black Chins / Cannonballs ➤ Hosted Events
Each of these are outlined below.


Thieving Thieving icon.png
To begin, you will want to head east at ::home to the Piscarilius house thieving stalls.
These stalls are both decent enough XP/hr while outputing pure cash (see image for each tier).
As soon as possible, it is recommended to begin thieving two stalls back-and-forth.
Doing this method between Anglerfish (90) & Shark (75) yields excellent GP/hr to get you going.

Black Chins Black chinchompa.webp
Catching Black Chinchompas (lvl 73 Hunter), 5 at a time, can be lucrative on Zeah.
To begin, type in "Black Chins" or "Wilderness Hunter Area" in TP Nexus.
This is in level 33 wilderness, so only take what you're prepared to lose.
The player can set up more traps than in the rest of the game in the wilderness.

Slayer inline
The main Slayer wiki page: here, and the main Slayer Tasks wiki page: here.
You can get to the slayer masters west of home via the ::slayer command.
Slayer is a straightforward skill: Get a task, teleport to monsters (see Getting Around section), kill monsters, get Slayer Points & loot, finish task & repeat.
While on task, you have the chance to receive a Slayer Resource Crate, which can be very lucrative!
If on task from Konar, Nieve, Sumona, Duradel or Kuradal (SW of ::home) you can receive Brimstone keys, which opens the Brimstone chest.
If on wilderness tasks from Krystilia (NW of ::home), you can receive Larran's keys which open Larran's big chest at the Pirate's Ship in level 56 wilderness.
WARNING: Opening Larran's Big Chest is among the most dangerous activities on Zeah!

Krystilia, northwest of ::home


Events inline
Come socialize and join us in our wide range of activities!
You are eligible to roll the rare loot table if you deal 1+ damage at all PvM Events.
While not as consistent as the above mentions, you could strike it rich!
One event to never miss is Party Demon, accessed by ::pd command
The Party Demon always drops a Gold Relic Token, a VERY powerful tool in your PvM progression!
Any player causing damage gets a roll!
We have many kinds of events on Zeah

Silver MasterMagician.png Daily Activities

What activities could I do to boost my progress?
First and foremost --- VOTE! --- via ::vote, first option.
Voting increases our server's exposure while giving you a plethora of VERY useful rewards.
Vote tickets are used at the Vote Shop, for items like Rune Defender (5 vote tickets, skipping defender grind)...
Vote tickets can be sold to other players as well.
Votes can also be used to purchase random daily Gold Relics or Boss Boxes.
Go ::vote and progress your account!


Other Pro-Tips:
Stay logged in, as you gain loyalty points passively, to spend on powerful auras. Vampyrism STRONGLY recommended!
Use your daily spins via the Squeal of Fortune interface to gain more supplies / GP.
Complete tasks to unlock Silver Relics (permanent relics) with very helpful abilities.
Kill Bork & Skeletal Horror daily for slayer XP, charms, and other resources.
Attend Staff-hosted events, such as the Party Demon (::pd) to massively boost your progress / potential loot.

Silver SavvySupport.png Maxing Out

How would I go about reaching max level?
Many players wonder how they can progress their accounts quickly to max level (2475).
One tried-and-true way to accomplish this is to rush a Full Slayer Helmet (see image below).
It is recommended that you unlock Charming as one of your first Silver Relic unlocks during this Slayer progression.
Furthermore, Dungeoneering is STRONGLY recommended to acquire chaotic weapons, which are incredible. Link to wiki: Dungeoneering
More information on relics found here: Relics. Charming auto-collects your charms while slaying, which helps with Summoning!


Via this method...
By 99 Slayer, the player should have roughly enough supplies to make major gains towards the 99 grind, if not funding buyables 100%.
Once the player has: a Full Slayer Helmet, Vampyrism aura (Loyalty Tokens), Gold Relic Tokens (Party Demon), and decent midgame gear (see above section)...
The player should comfortably be in a position to do midgame PvM. Fight Caves & Inferno are also within reach given a few items.
Should you acquire enough GP along the way, a blowpipe is among the best and most versatile weapons on Zeah and is your ticket to the midgame.
Getting a Full Slayer Helmet can open the game up!
