Highsteppe City

The City of Highsteppe is the hub city of Paytreal. This is where people socialize, accept and turn in missions, and look for dungeon groups.

Layout
Highsteppe City is built on two layers. Buildings on the surface are made out of brick, while the many shops below the city are carved into the rock. Two ramps connect the two layers, one near the player's house and the other near the west city gate. The great Guardian Tree towers over the city, while it's roots weave through the ground of the bottom layer.

Guardian Tree
Between the roots of the Guardian Tree, players can find the entrance to four of the six dungeons: Crypt, Sewer, Airship and Broken Hall. The trunk of the Guardian Tree is hollow and serves as a crossroad, with four bridges connecting it to the ring-shaped main road.

Marlowe, the PvP mission vendor, can be found here, as well as an apprentice smith to repair your broken gear.

Fellowship Court
With a bunch of different rooms, including a training room with a sturdy boss-type training dummy, Fellowship Court is a place for people of a fellowship to meet up, hang out and test equipment together. The teleport pillar in front of the hall provides a quick way to quick travel back to the city from anywhere in the world. Eight rune pillars can be found here too, giving new runemages a variety of spells to learn.

Player House
The player house is located in the south-east part of the city. While there is only one building for everyone, each player can enter their own instance of the player house. There are four floors, connected by an elevator.


 * On the first floor, there is a personal chest to store items, a cauldron for potion making, as well as an aquarium for dragon breeding. A door leads to the basement.
 * The second floor contains a fishing bench for lure crafting and a wardrobe where players can change the visual style of their armor and weapon.
 * The top floor contains a library where you can get overlevel perks, and also houses two small and a large boss-size dummy to test your equipment on and practice your skills.
 * In the basement, players can age potions, craft tools and furniture at the tinkerer bench, and create tilesets to customize their equipment.

Players can customize their player house by placing certain items in the furniture chests, and arrange them to their liking.

Items that can be used for decorating are:
 * Furniture
 * Weapons
 * Mounts
 * Alchemy ingredients and lure parts
 * Pets (coming soon)

Tavern
The tavern is a place for players to meet up before events, test new equipment together at the training dummies, or challenge Tresus at the Edge of Nowhere.

The Realm Guardian also hangs around here, and will give out long-term missions to high-level players.

Hidden Alley
The dark alley that connects Fellowship Court and the Player House is concealed by an illusion. A careful search near the bushes at Fellowship Court or inside the house with the infusion specialist should reveal the entrance.

Airship Dock
Once up on top of the platform, players can get a breathtaking view of the city.
