Note: Arbeits = part-time jobs

• You trigger them by clicking on the 4th option in your Travel Diary when you talk to a NPC at certain time.

• Once you accept an arbeit, the arbeit info will be reflected in your quest. A picture of the NPC who gave you the arbeit will be shown in the quest box as well.

• Arbeits have a time limit of 9 game hours and will expire if you cannot complete them and/or report to the originating NPCs in time.

• The amount of time left to complete an arbeit is shown on the top-right corner of your screen once you accepted it.

• You are given 1 more minute (real-time) to rush back to the originating NPC with the quest 100% completed to collect your reward, when you see the words "Arbeit Report Time".

• For collection quests, you can still claim 50% of the reward and exp if you can bring more than half the quantity of the items required for the quest back to the NPC before the arbeit expires. For example, you can get 180 gold and 50 exp if you return 3 out of 5 berries to the Grocery girl.

• However, for delivery quests, you must usually complete all the requirements to get the rewards.

• If you fail to complete an arbeit in time, the arbeit info with the NPC picture will be removed from the quest box automatically.

• When you fail a delivery quest, the delivery item becomes useless and stays in your inventory.

• Arbeits are only available in the day. I usually start to gather arbeit items at night.

• Most NPCs, except for the Shepard boy (Deian), give random arbeits. Deian only offers 1 kind of arbeit.

• You can only take one arbeit at a time.

• Different NPCs offers arbeits at a different but fix time in the day.

• Each NPC can only offer a limited number of arbeits to the player in a game day. Therefore, if there are too many players waiting for an arbeit, you might not be able to get one.

• Arbeits pay higher on Tuesdays (Korean Time).

Guide to fast money for beginners

Tir Chonaill's Arbeits:

Here is how you get a decent amount of gold and exp quickly in 1 game day by doing an arbeit course in the newbie town known as Tir Chonaill. (However, I highly recommend you do the arbeit course in Dunbarton described further down in this section instead because arbeits in Dunbarton are mostly delivery quests and more straight forward to accomplish.)

Tir Chonaill During Night Time -Gather 10-20 Wools from sheeps. (You'll need a Gathering Knife or any bladed weapon to shave sheeps.) -Gather 5 berries by hitting bushes and trees with your bare hands if you still have the stamina and time. (This is not important anymore since CP1 makes it harder to get berry quests now.)

Tir Chonaill @ 9:00am (High Priority) -Go to the Potion shop/house north of the town. -Talk to the Potion NPC (Dilys) who sells potions inside the house. -Get and accept the arbeit from Dilys. -Her quests are:

1:Task: Collect 10 sheep Wools. Exp: +100 Reward: 225 gold

2.Task: Deliver potion to the Town Mayor (Duncan)/Teacher guy (Ranald)/Grocery girl (Caitin)/Shepherd boy (Deian). The destination is random, so it's best you remember the NPC names in town. Exp: +100 Reward: 90 gold

Time left: 9 hours.

-Talk to the Potion NPC (Dilys) again after you have 6 hours left for this arbeit. (Dilys will not reward you even if you finished her task before that time.) -When reporting an arbeit, just click on the first left-most button in the NPC dialog box. Don't click on the second button if you see one since it will bring you to a trading window. -If you cannot complete the delivery arbeit, throw away the potion in your inventory. This applies to all delivery items for delivery quests. -Try to complete the Potion NPC's arbeit as soon as possible and do the second wool arbeit. If you have no idea what is requested from you in this arbeit, cancel it and go to the Shepherd boy (Deian) by 10am so that you can proceed to the next arbeit.

Tir Chonaill @ 10:00am but before 3:00pm (Highest Priority) -Rush to the Shepherd boy (Deian) located in the far north-east part of the town, standing next to a wooden cabin. -Talk to Deian. -Accept the arbeit from him. -His one and only quest is:

Task: Collect 10 sheep Wools Exp: +100 Reward: 225 gold

-Immediately talk to Deian again if you have 10 wools already after you have 10 hours left to complete the arbeit.

Tir Chonaill @ 10:00am-11:30am (Low Priority) -Go to the Inn located directly south of the Mayor's house. -Talk to the Inn NPC (Piaras) inside. -Accept the arbeit from Piaras. -His quests are:

2.Task: Collect 10 Firewoods Exp: +100 Reward: Around 100 gold

3.Task: Collect some Branches (The Korean player told me she took this quest before.) Exp: Unknown Reward: Unknown

4.Task: Delivery quests. These quests usually require you to talk to the Cloth NPC (Nora) outside the Inn and then deliver a cake or a bottle of wine to the Grocery NPC (Caitin) or the Inn NPC (Piaras). Exp: +100 Reward: 90 gold

Time left: 9-6 hours

-Talk to the Inn NPC (Piaras) again to get your reward after you have collected the items. (If you are going to do the quests for the Inn guy, most likely you won't have enough time to get the Grocery NPC's quest at noon. Furthermore, it pays too little for so much work.)

Tir Chonaill @ 12:00pm Exactly (High Priority) -Go to the Grocery shop in town. -Talk to the Grocery NPC (Caitin) who sells food, e.g. bread, cheese, meat, etc. -Accept the arbeit from Caitin. -Her quests are:

2.Task: Collect 10 Barley (using a Sickle) and make 1 Barley Flour at the windmill. (You need to pay the little girl in front of the windmill, Alissa, to use it.) Exp: +100 Reward: 330 gold

3.Task: Collect 10 Wheat (using a Sickle) and make 1 Wheat Flour at the windmill. (You need to pay the little girl in front of the windmill, Alissa, to use it.) Exp: +100 Reward: 330 gold

4.Task: Deliver bread to the Potion NPC (Dilys) or Inn NPC (Piaras). Possible other random destinations. Exp: +100 Reward: 135 gold

Tir Chonaill @ 12:00pm-3:00pm (Optional) -Go to the church which is in the west part of the town. -Talk to the Priestress (Endelyon) standing outside the church. -Accept the arbeit from Endelyon. -Her quests are:

1.Task: Collect 15 Eggs Exp: +100 Reward: 4 bottles of Blessing Water (Use Blessing Water on your equipment so that they do not drop off easily when you are killed in a fight. You equipment do not get damaged easily as well.)

2.Task: Collect 10 Barley (You'll need a Sickle to harvest in the fields.) Exp: +100 Reward: 4 bottles of Blessing Water

3.Task: Collect 10 Wheat (You'll need a Sickle for this as well.) Exp: +100 Reward: 4 bottles of Blessing Water

Time left: 9-4 hours

-Talk to the Priestress again after you have 5 hours left to get your reward once you have collected the items.

Tir Chonaill After 2:00pm -Go to the Blacksmith NPC (Ferghus). His weapon and armor store is located further down from the inn. -Talk to him and accept his arbeit.

1.Task: Deliver some clothes to the Grocery NPC (Caitin)/red hair girl (Lassar) and report back to the Tailor guy. The destination is random as well. Exp: +100 Reward: 90 gold

2.Task: Unknown. I guessed it is some job that requires you to make something. Anyone has information on his quests? Reward: >1000 gold

Time left: <3 hours

-The trick to complete most arbeits is to memorize certain Korean keywords like "Berry", "Wheat", "Barley", "Egg", and all the NPC names in the newbie town. -More info on arbeits can be found here http://letsmabinogi.hp.infoseek.co.jp/sidejob.htm (in Japanese) -You can do up to 5 arbeits in 1 game day if you can organize your time and quest items properly. -If you are very lucky and encounter all the high paying arbeits, you can earn up to >800 gold in 1 game day. -Repeat the arbeits the next day until you get a decent amount of money to buy a Short Sword or Hammer since it is a good weapon for a novice.
