Checklist Approach

Step 1 - Location, Location, Location

Get thineself to an area with both a School of Architecture and a School of Art. Hit your F3 key. Do you see an S Arch and S Art (indicated by a red dot) near your arrow icon (indicated by a oxblood arrow in the center of the map)? If not, you need to either use one of your free starting location teleports to someone who is or find a Chariot (also indicated on your F3 map) and head to Four Corners (can be reached from the Midland Valley Chariot Stop.)

Step 1 Logistics

Still can't find where to go? You can chat a friend or me (Dreasimy) by typing /chat Dreasimy (or insert the name of your friend in place of 'Dreasimy'). Don't know anyone? Type "/join L2PBS" without the quotes. This is a global, moderated chat. Click on that tab and type that you need to get to a good location for Citizenship with a School of Arch and Art. You can usually find someone to 'teleport' to this way, or someone will come rescue you wherever you had the misfortune to start the game so far from everything useful.

Step 2 - The Checklist Begins

OK hopefully you are now in a good place to complete the Citizenship tab in the lower left corner of your screen. It is a laundry list of things you MUST do to attain level 1 and begin your career as an Egyptian citizen. Below is a streamlined list of what to do:

A - Collect 50 Slate

Collect 50 Slate. This is found by walking to the edge of a body of water and inch around along the shoreline until you see an icon in the top corner of your screen that depicts a hammer and a little bit of stone. If that icon is showing stand still and click it. This will let you pick up 1 slate. Keep moving until you see another Slate icon, stop, click, rinse repeat until you have 50 slate in your inventory (Items Tab). This is arguably the least fun part of citizenship, get it over with! :D

B - Collect 60 Wood

Collect 60 wood by walking up to every tree you see and clicking on it. Select the button to Gather Wood from the tree. If you want to eliminate that button push, click your avatar then select Options > One Click and Related > Check the box for Fast Gather wood from trees.

C - Learn Stone Blade Fabrication

Go to the School of Architecture and learn the skill Stone Blade Fabrication (this costs you 7 of your slate.)

D - Make Stone Blades

Now you can attempt to turn 38 of your slate into stone blades by clicking your avatar > Skills > Forge Stone Blade over and over until you have used up ALL BUT 4 of your slate.

E - Learn Carpentry

Now go back to the School of Architecture and learn the skill Carpentry

F - Build your first Building & Plane Boards

At this point, it's important to note that Egypt is a big place with lots of room. People won't thank you for building a wood plane or
other stuff in the middle of what they have developed as their 'camp'. Even tho the items you build while completing your Citizenship
tasks are meant to be temporary, to avoid conflict, it's best to try to build away from other people's stuff. 

With that in mind, go to a spot near water and build a Wood Plane (Click your avatar>Projects>Build a Wood Plane.) The water isn't relevant to wood planes but you will need water later on.

Plane all but 10 pieces of wood into Boards. To be continued!

To accomplish these tasks, you will need to collect the following materials. (Some of the amounts vary depending on the breakage rate of your plane and brick rack

• 41 Flax
  • Rot 21 into Rotten Flax
• 23 Sand (for 136 Bricks)
• 46 Grass dried into Straw (for 136 Bricks)
• 69 Mud (for 136 Bricks)
• 60 Thorns
