Izzi Dark Zone Guide

<h2>How To Upload Custom Cards</h2>
You can upload custom cards to be used as a Global Series or Personalized for specific servers. The custom cards uploaded are subjected to be reviewed and approved by admins. You can submit up to 10 characters per series. If you series / skin art is approved it will automatically removed from the submission page UI, so you do not need to worry about editing or removing them. You can uploaded any number of series for your server or global.
Custom Skin art are personalized for the player and is only available to the player. Once their skin art is approved they will receive the skin as a gift from the Admins.
There are some rules to be followed while submitting a custom card or series.
Disclaimer: If your ART is subject to copyright, the art or series may be removed or discontinued.
<h3>Custom card rules</h3>
<h3>Art Quality</h3>
The quality of art is greatly valued, so a resolution of 1920x1080 HD is recommended. If the art looks low quality it may be rejected. Tip: Helpful tool to resize art without losing quality <a style="color: #3598db; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://www.birme.net/?target_width=750&amp;target_height=1000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.birme.net/?target_width=750&amp;target_height=1000</a>
<h3>Watermarks and Copyright</h3>
We recommend the art must not contain any watermarks. However, we encourage crediting artists for their Fan Art so its best to ask the artist for permission to use the art for free or if they need credit. We simply credit the artist by providing a link to their pixiv, or twitter username, please mention the appropriate links while submitting art. If you have already received permission to use the art for free mention it in extra notes as well. If there are too many texts or watermarks on the art it may be rejected. If we are asked to take down the art, we will do so.
The ideal resolution reommended is 750x1000 (Use a higher resolution art to crop).
<h3>Character Position</h3>
The art must showcase a single character. If there are too many characters on the same art it may be rejected.
<h3>Visuals</h3>
The art must not contain lewd or hentai visuals.
<h3>Character Talent And Element Type</h3>
Make sure the talent and element type for a character first exists on Izzi Bot. Additionally you could make sure to spread out the talents to not stack characters under only few talents. If admins have found that there are too many characters for that talent, the admins reserve the right to change it.
The same set of rules apply for Custom Skin Art as well.
<h2>How to Choose Custom Series, Talent and Element Type</h2>
- You can submit your own custom series or anime / Games / TV Shows but the art must be anime style.
- The characters you choose must not be copyrighted and must not exist on izzi. If you submit a character that belongs to an existing series, it will be added to that series instead of your custom series.
- If you wish to add more characters to existing series simply enter the series name as your submission.
-&nbsp;The characters or skins must not be already available on izzi.
- You can also submit characters from existing series to be added into your custom server, but there should atleast be 5 characters while submitting.
- While choosing talents / abilities refer: <a style="color: #3598db; text-decoration: underline;" href="https://izzi-xenex.xyz/ability-card-table" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://izzi-xenex.xyz/ability-card-table</a> to see if the ability and element type has lots of cards. Chances are if the cards for certian ability and element type are less in number we wont have to change the ones you have submitted. If we find that there are too many cards for the ability and element type you submit we will change it to diversify the cards.
- You can also submit your own custom series name with your own custom character names (Example: Your own username/your own card), but they must be appropriate and meet other art standards.
Note: We will add more rules as we see fit as we get more submissions.
<h3>Reserved Talents and Element Types</h3>
The following Talents and Element types are reserved. Therefore, If you set them as one of the custom card skills they will be changed:
- Neutral Harbinger of Death (Izzi card).
- Poison Harbinger of Death.
<h2>How To Submit Custom Art</h2>
To submit custom card or skin art you need the character art and the original source url of the art. Steps to follow:
<h3>Step 1</h3>
Download the art from the source url, example: pixiv or pinterest or any platform. Upload the original art into Google Drive and make sure its public for admins to access.
<img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1152268557237882880/Screenshot_2023-09-15_at_9.00.39_PM.png" alt="upload custom cards to gdrive" width="400" height="393" />
<h3>Step 2</h3>
Upload the downloaded or resized art in any discord public channel (You can also do this in izzi OS). Click on "open in browser" and copy the link. This link is considered "image url".
<img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1151103195465130014/Capture.PNG" alt="custom card link" width="633" height="51" />
<h3>Step 3</h3>
Add the Image source url. The Pixiv or pinterest link where you found the art. Also mention the artist profile url along with Chracter name and other details in the form. If the source url is invalid the submission may be rejected.
<h3>Step 4</h3>
Repeat until you've added all the characters for a series or skin you desire.
<h3>Step 5</h3>
While entering Character details if you do not enter server details it will be added globally which means any izzi player can spawn your character in raids.
<img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1151916071717183551/Screenshot_2023-09-14_at_9.52.51_PM.png" alt="enter custom card details" width="500" height="814" />
<h3>Step 6</h3>
If you do not wish for the character to be global you must specify valid server ID and server invite link for verification. If you add more than 5 servers the character will be added as a global character.
<h3>Step 7</h3>
Save your changes and wait for approval. If changes are requested you will be notified via Izzi DMs.
Note: You can have characters both as Global and specific to servers from the same series.
<h2>How To Spawn Custom Characters</h2>
If your custom character is Global, You can spawn these in raids using [iz rd spawn] commands. If the character is not a global character, you can spawn a raid of this character using [iz ge rspawn]. Both commands will set a raid spawn cooldown. You cannot spawn a custom server raid during an Event.
You can only spawn custom character raids in specific servers. So make sure your server invite link is valid for longer period.
Note: If you suddeny decide to delete your server or if your invite link becomes invalid the custom series will automatically be updated as Global Series.
<h2>What Are The Verification Criteria For Custom Cards</h2>
<ol>
<li>- You must have izzi in your server.</li>
<li>- A custom character series must contain atleast 5 characters (minimum).</li>
<li>- The art submitted must not contain lewd or hentai visuals.</li>
<li>- The character must not contain xenex series art or existing series in the bot.</li>
<li>- You must provide a server invite link which is valid for longer period.</li>
<li>- Your server must contain atleast 20 members.</li>
</ol>

How to Dungeon 101

Been a while but im back on the keyboard typing away,
Right now izzi is going through a massive player spike upwards and what better time than now to educate the masses a little bit more and give em some more tips and tricks. This blog is an extension to the first blog i wrote, "Getting started, the basics of Izzi" i recommend you read that before jumping into this one.&nbsp;
With that out of the way, lets start with
&nbsp;
1. Ability trigger timers
Weve been receiving a lot of players from the "neighbor" bot who see ability activation a little bit different from how izzi does it. Here, all abilities work on a timer basis. So instead of seeing a bar that eventually fills up, abilities will trigger during a certain turn. There are 6 types of timers in izzi
a) Every 2 turns (2,4,6,8,10,12,14) b) Every 3 turns (3,6,9,12,15) c) Every turn before the 3rd (2,5,8,11,13) d) Every 4 turns (4,8,12) e) At the start of the first turn (1) f) Passives (No turn timer, instead they have a trigger requirement)&nbsp;
Heres a table of the abilites in their respective timer categories:
<table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 38.1492%; height: 874.218px;" border="1">

Keep these timers in mind when raiding or when organizing a team.
&nbsp;
2. Abilites that stack / Double proc
When playin sometimes you just think "Man wouldnt it be nice if i had 3 revitalizes on a team, id never die." Well sadly that doesnt work. HOWEVER, some abilities do activate twice if more than one card of that ability is set in a team. Those abilities are:
- Elemental Strike - Electrocute - Chronobreak - Misdirection
Chronobreak is the least scary when stacked cause it literally doesnt do anything the second time.
Elemental strike is somewhat dangerous as when its combined with another damage ability (for example blizzard) youll have to tank 3 different sources of unblockable damage.
Misdirection is a step above stacked elemental strike, misdirections damage is based off your current attack stat, so for example if youve just activated revitalize theres a chance that this ability when landing will do more damage than usual, as an additional threat it increases INT by a lot. So if youre in a misdirection x2 - elemental strike not only are you dealing with unblockable damage, but also with scaling damage.
Lastly would be double electrocute. I dont think i need to explain why this would be absolutely terrifying to deal with. While theres a off chance that after the first one stuns the second one could unstun, the sheer damage electrocute pumps out is too much of a risk.
Keep these in mind when raiding in normal raids when they return, dont be hasty and think about what you want to raid versus what you can raid.
&nbsp;
3. INT does absolutely nothing of importance to you
Keeping on with the trend of neighboring players coming to visit izzi, im sure yall have never seen a card have 5 stats. Izzi has an additional stat for all cards known as INT (or intelligence if you couldnt figure that out). This might seem pretty confusing but let me make this clear and simple.
INT DOES ABSOLUTELY F****** NOTHING OF IMPORTANCE 99% OF THE TIME
If youve played moba's or rpg's before let me put int into a more simple language. Attack is phsyical damage, Intelligence is magic damage. When flooring or even raiding, its the basic attacks your card / team does that matter the most. These basic attacks are based off well attack. Only when youre using Elemental Strike, Frost or Electrocute does INT matter, and even then the only real ability out of those 3 that gets any use time regularly is Electrocute for flooring.
So let me just say this, dont think about INT too much. Focus on your attack, def and HP.
&nbsp;
4. How do i decide what cards to build?
While we have a guide for starter cards, i can understand that sometimes having a pool of 661 total cards can be rather intimidating. While were always happy to give you recommendations, eventually youll have to learn how to read a good card from a bad card on your own. The simplest way is to just check the stats. Izzi has a stat pool range of 75 to 98, obviously the higher the better. For most players, anything with in 85 to 89 is "good enough". You need to remember the better a stat is the more sought after it is, creating artificial scarcity. So while you might think getting the card with all +90 stats is good, you gotta keep in mind that that card will not only be; a) More expensive, but also b) Harder to find since everyone is looking for them. Its okay to settle on cards that have flat 85's on all stats than to try hard for cards that have all 90's. To make this process even easier, in raids and even flooring, the only stats that really matter are HP, ATK and DEF. Speed only matters for certain abilities and i just made a whole tangent calling intelligence useless so yeah. If a card has 85+ on HP, attack and defense, and -80 on INT and speed, that card honestly is still pretty decent. Keep this in mind when trying to decypher good cards from bad cards.
The second way to determine the value of a card would be its type. While not as substantial as the stats, typing can play a major role in how wanted and expensive a card would be. Recently izzi went through a big update, the most important part to take away from this update is that&nbsp;ELEMENT TYPES HAVE EFFECTS IN RAIDS.&nbsp;This means that you can no longer monke brain and throw random cards at raids, but instead have to think about what element types you have and how to work around the typing system.&nbsp;
Here is the currect type spread in izzi; <img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/879477951576551424/959050214818349056/ele_cycke.png" alt="" width="382" height="339" />
Remember this as you will have to deal with elements nonstop when raiding.
Right now the best type a card can have is fire, it has one weakness in water and has an advantage over 2 types being crystal and grass. The weakest type would be water. Its weak to grass and electric and only beats fire. HOWEVER, another thing that in my opinion you should look more into is the amount of cards per type in the dex. As of right now, this is the spread (i say right now cause soon theres gonna be a update that changes the typing of some cards)
Light: 98 Dark: 103 Crystal: 35 Electric: 65 Ground: 45 Poison: 56 Fire: 70 Water: 52 Grass: 29 Wind: 38
As you can see, light and dark stick out like sore thumbs. This means that in a setting where raids are randomized and you not knowing what card comes up next in a zone, theres a bigger chance that that card is going to be either light or dark. This means having a card that can deal with those 2 types in specific has a bigger value cause theyre more versatile.&nbsp;
So to summarize, a "okay" card, has HP, attack and defense stats that are above 85, and is not a water type. Meanwhile a great card, has +90 stats on everything, and preferable has Fire, Light or Crystal typing.&nbsp;

Raid Guide as of 2/3/23
Notes:
As of March 14, 2022, Elemental Advantages have been added to Raid Battles. As a result, the current raid meta will now be dependent on exploiting the raid boss' weaknesses, and taking advantage of your team's elemental resistance, and as of the same date, Light element is now weak to Poison and Crystal.&nbsp; As of March 31, 2022, Poison is now weak to Ground, and removed Light's weakness to Poison. As of October 25, 2022, Multiple Elemental Advantage in Raids, Dungeon Battles, PvP Team battles allows players to use multiple elements to their advantage to deal way more damage and take way less damage from the opponent with an elemental disadvantage.&nbsp;
Elemental Effectiveness
water &gt; fire (ex: water is effective against fire)
fire &gt; grass and crystal
grass &gt; ground and water
ground &gt; electric and poison
electric &gt; water
crystal &gt; ground and light
poison &gt; wind and grass
wind &gt; crystal
dark &gt; poison
light &gt; dark
Neutral has no elemental effects.
Note: Elemental advantage is denoted by Slightly Effective (1x), Effective (2x), and Super Effective (3x) Diagram:&nbsp;Credits to <span class="username-3JLfHz headerTagUsernameNoNickname-1TjuLc headerTagUsernameBase-XYisdh" style="font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;">tdeoslty<span class="headerTagDiscriminatorNoNickname-dfcvHa discrimBase-1VOoau" style="font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;">#6942

What elements do I use to deal super effective damage?
There will be elements that are weak to one element in the raid, but also strong against it, making its damage neutral. Example of this is a raid with Poison and Light Element. Poison is weak to Dark, but Dark is weak against Light, so the damage dealt will be neutral.
With that in mind, here's a simple method of what elements to use in your raids.
First, you have to review the raid boss elements. Let's have an example:
<img src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824286511054585867/960360142027784222/boss.jpg?width=960&amp;height=427" alt="Raid View" />
Gray Fullbuster, who is a Water element, is weak to Grass and Electric, and resists Fire
Shuna, who is a Light element, is weak to Crystal, and resists Dark
Ryuk, who is a Dark element, is weak to Light, and resists Poison
So your team composition must have at least one Grass, Electric, Crystal or Light element card to deal super effective damage.
Note: It is recommended to have all 3 cards be super effective against the boss to maximize your damage output/hit the damage limit per battle.
I'm lacking these elemental cards in my inventory, will my team still do super effective damage?
To determine whether your team will be super effective against the boss, you have to compare your team's cards to the individual cards in the raid boss.
<img src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824286511054585867/960364182413385808/battle.jpg?width=504&amp;height=448" alt="Raid Challenge Battle" />
Let's take the same example, if you only have Kageyama Tobio, Toshirou Hijikata, and Artoria Pendragon (Saber) in your inventory, the effectiveness will be as follows:
<table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; height: 156.734px; border-color: #ecf0f1; border-style: solid;" border="1">

</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
*If team effectiveness is positive (+1, +2 or +3), your team will deal slightly effective (1x)/effective (2x)/super effective damage (3x) to the raid boss, and resist the raid boss' incoming attacks
If team effectiveness is zero, your team will deal and receive neutral damage to the raid boss.
If team effectiveness is negative (-1, -2 or -3), your team will deal not very effective damage, as well as taking super effective damage from the raid boss. You have skip this particular raid if your team effectiveness hits this value.
New Team Compositions
Aside from the 2 commonly used comps that are mentioned <a href="https://izzi-xenex.xyz/blogs/4bcf5f33-250a-4e6f-a1d6-22f6dba29b49">here in this previous blog</a>, there are some new compositions due to the multiple element effectiveness update, and some abilities are getting attention because of a recent ability buff and/or the existence of elemental advantages.
<ul>
<li>Harbinger of Death + Revitalize/Lifesteal + Point Blank (needs 3x Elemental Advantages) with Black Cleaver/Desolator, Seeker's Armguard/Sapphire Staff/Youmu's Ghostblade and Bloodthirster equipped. (Another version of the commonly used HoD/Revit/Lifesteal comp, due to Point Blank being given an attack buff, but sacrifices a bit of survivability due to it replacing either Revitalize or Lifesteal)</li>
</ul>
Conditional Teams: 
<ul>
<li>Bone Plating + Crusher + Fighting Spirit (needs at least 1x elemental advantage) with Black Cleaver/Desolator, Thornmail/Guardian Angel and Navori Quickblades items equipped (Great against Wrecker + Tornado/Balancing Strike raids due to these abilities dishing high amounts of True damage every 2 rounds)</li>
</ul>
 More raid comps coming soon!

Izzi v2.0 Updated Raid Guide (As of 2/3/23) 

Izzi Beginner Guide Overview

<h2>What are Raids?</h2>
Raids are co-op PvE aspects of Izzi. Up to 6 players can join a raid to take down the Raid boss and receive loot and rewards. A raid boss can be any card except <a title="see all event cards" href="https://izzi-xenex.xyz/events" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Event Cards</a>. A raid is a 3v1 or 3v3 mechanic against the raid boss based on your player level, but each player will use their own team to battle. If you and your party finishes a raid you will be rewarded with gold, fodders and Immortal cards. For more info about raid commands type [iz help raid].
<h2>Raid Spawn</h2>
To spawn a raid type [iz rd spawn &lt;difficulty&gt;]. Difficulty includes e (easy), m (medium), h (hard), (i) immortal. By default the raids you spawn will appear in public lobby in which any player can join your lobby or even snipe the raid you have spawned. You must spawn a private lobby raid to avoid getting sniped. Use [iz rd spawn &lt;difficulty&gt; -p] to spawn a private lobby raid. You will receive a DM from the bot with the details about your raid.
You can spawn a custom level raid by typing [iz rd spawn -cap &lt;level&gt; &lt;difficulty&gt;].
<h3>Difficulty</h3>
It often represents how difficult it is to defeat a raid based on its Card Rank and Boss Power Level. Each Raid is categorised into Easy, Medium, Hard and Immortal Raids which is further sub categorised into D1, D2, D3 difficulties D3 being the easiest and D1 being the hardest raids to do. D1, D2, D3 depicts the card rank. Silver, Gold, Platinum rarity are considered D3 tier, Diamond, Legend, Divine are D2 tier and Immortal, Exclusive, Ultimate rarity are D1 tier. The Raid difficulty you spawn is based on your player level. When a high level player spawns an easy raid he has higher chances of spawning a D1 raid compared to a low level player who has high chance of spawning D3 raids and very little chances of spawning D2 or D1 raids. iz rd spawn i -p Spawns a immortal private lobby raid. When you spawn a private raid, you will automatically join as the leader. Note: You must be level 22 to spawn or join Immortal Raids.
<h3>Raid Drops / Loot</h3>
Raid rewards are awarded if the Raid boss is defeated within the given time limit after the raid starts. Each raid has two types of Loot. Base loot which everyone gets and additional bonus loot which is distributed amount the lobby members.
Base loot - Consists of Fodders and Gold given to all participating players.
Bonus Loot - Distributed among all lobby members. Contains bonus gold, higher rarity card drops at a % drop rate based on the raid level &amp; Power Leve (PL). The number of bonus card drops are as follows:
D1 - 9 Legend Cards, 3 Immortal Card, max level - 1500
D2 - 6 Legend Cards, 3 Immortal Card, max level - 1850
D3 - 3 Legend Cards, 3 Immortal Card, max level - 2500 can go up to 3750
Each raid difficulty has some chance of spawning one of the 3 categories.
Easy - Can spawn D3 raids
Medium - Can spawn D3 and D2 raids
Hard - Can spawn D3 and D2 raids
Immortal - Can spawn D3, D2 and D1 raids
Note: In order to qualify for Bonus loot a player must deal 10% of Raid Boss's Max HP.
After you reach player level 55 you will start spawning 3 raid bosses instead of 1. While the legend card drops are distributed equally you have a chance of getting 3x immortal cards.
Party/Lobby MVP - The player who has dealt the most out of all party members is considered as the lobby MVP. Being the party MVP allows you to complete daily quests and gives additional 5% drop chance on Bonus loot.

Raids Beginner Guide

<h2>When Do I Need A Counter Ability?</h2>
An ability counter may be needed to clear floors or raids, when you current card or team is not sufficent to defeat the enemy.
&nbsp;
<h2>What Ability Do I Use to Counter the Enemy?</h2>
Dominator&nbsp;-&nbsp;Dominator is great for countering ATK&nbsp;based or&nbsp;DMG&nbsp;based ability dmg, including Elemental Strike, Tornado, Balancing Strike and Rapid Fire. It can also counter ATK buffing abilites such as Wrecker and Predator.
&nbsp;
Leer - When your&nbsp;SPD&nbsp;is faster than the enemy, this abilility can counter almost any round 3 abiliy. Leer, Sleep, Defensive Strike, Cleanse, Frost, Blizzard, Transfigure, Electrocute, Chronobreak etc. with the exclusion of Harbinger of Death.
&nbsp;
Sleep -&nbsp;When your&nbsp;SPD&nbsp;is faster than the enemy, this abilility can counter almost any round 3 abiliy. Leer, Sleep, Defensive Strike, Harbinger of Death, Frost, Blizzard, Transfigure, Electrocute and Chronobreak etc.&nbsp;with the exclusion of Cleanse.
&nbsp;
Electrocute -&nbsp;Very simularly to Leer and Sleep, when faster, Electrocute is able to counter all the abilities Leer and Sleep are able to, but can counter both Harbinger of Death and Cleanse. Also know that Electrocute only has a chance to do this as well as deal dmg, while Leer and Sleep's counters are guarenteed as long as the condition is met.
&nbsp;
Cleanse - Cleanse is able counter by clearing status effects, like Bleed and Poison from Surge and Toxic Screen respectively as well as Restriction, Sleep and Time bomb.
&nbsp;
Harbinger of Death - Much like Cleanse, Harbinger of Death is able counter by clearing status effects, like Bleed and Poison from Surge and Toxic Screen respectively as well as Restriction, Leer and Time bomb.
&nbsp;
Restriction -&nbsp;When your&nbsp;SPD&nbsp;is faster than the enemy, this abilility can counter any round 2 ability, from Dominator and Dragon Rage to Elemental Strike and Tornado.
&nbsp;
Blizzard and Transfigure - Like two sides of the same coin, these two abilities counter each other. Blizzard decreases enemy&nbsp;Max HP and Transfigure increases your own Max HP.
&nbsp;
Bone Plating - This defensive ability is best at countering high normal dmg, that may be brought forth by Predator and Wrecker.
&nbsp;
Eclipse - Eclipse's passive, can help prevent you from taking dmg from Misdirection.
&nbsp;
Future Sight -&nbsp;Though it does not provide a full counter, its passive can reduce the dmg you recieve from Elemental Strike, Balancing Strike and Electrocute
&nbsp;
Undead -&nbsp;In some raids, no matter what you do, you can't seem to last long enought to deal dmg to the raid boss. In this circumstance, undead will shine the brightest, enabling you to revive up to 2 times throughout your battle.
&nbsp;
Guardian Angel (Item 14) - Though this isn't an ability, this item can prevent Bleed&nbsp;caused by Surge.

Ability Counters Guide

<h2>Select Your Card and Start Grinding</h2>
Now that you have selected your card using [iz select &lt;#ID&gt;], we can get to battles and climbing the floors. To battle use [iz bt]. Once the battle is completed, you will be prompted to progress to the next floor. To move to the next floor you can simply click on the button or type [iz fl n]. Additionally if you wish to skip the battle and move to the result type [iz bt hidebt]. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142416353563787334/next-fllr.PNG" alt="advance to next floor" width="500" height="82" /> You will also receive bonus loot for clearing the floor along with base fodders and gold. Your card will also gain EXP. Repeat the commands for each battle until you clear the zone. To advance to the next zone a similar prompt will be shown with a zn n button or you can type [iz zn n]. After you have passed a floor you can go back to it to farm fodders. Type [iz bt all] to use all your mana for equivalent rewards on the current floor. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142416353328910396/floor-fodds.PNG" alt="floor fodders" width="300" height="189" /> Platinum card copies are considered as Fodders. As you progress through the floors you can collect more fodders from Floors or Purchase them using [iz pack], each pack contains 10 Fodder copies. For more info about packs use [iz h pack]. The fodders in your inventory are shown as below: <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142417594809340014/fodders.PNG" alt="fodders in inventory" width="300" height="145" />
<h2>Leveling Up Your Card (Enchantment)</h2>
You can also level up your cards by consuming Fodders to reach max level. To Enchance your card type [iz enh &lt;#ID&gt;]. This will prompt a confirmation with the details about the number of fodders consumed and the total xp you gain and the total level you can reach. If you have sufficient fodders or more fodders the command will only consume the fodders needed to reach max level. Type [iz h rank] to view the list of ranks/rarity and its max level. By default the bot uses an optimal algorithm to consume cards that give the most xp. However, you can also specify a fodder name of your choice to be used in Enchantment. Type [iz enh -n &lt;name&gt;]. Additionally to limit the number of fodders you want to consume type [iz enh -l 200]. For more info on the command type [iz h enh]. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142471416915169280/enh.PNG" alt="card enchantment" width="300" height="187" /> 1 Fodder or Platinum card offers 150xp. When consuming fodders, fodders with same name as your card will give you 3x xp i.e 450xp&nbsp;which will help you level up your card even fast with fewer fodders required. To view the number of Fodders you require to reach a level type [iz cards &lt;start level&gt; &lt;end level&gt;] ex: iz cards 3 50, will display the fodders needed to enchant your card from level 3 to level 50. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142475416146292886/cards.PNG" alt="cards required to enchant" width="300" height="192" />
<h2>Battles Stats And Game Mechanics</h2>
Now that we know how to battle an enemy, we will see what each visual representation of stats are, and some important battle mechanics. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1142478318034223104/battle-embed.PNG" alt="battle" width="237" height="467" /> Title - Displays the current type of battle. This consists of Team Dungeon Battle [iz tm bt], Raid Challenge [iz rd bt], PvP [iz tm bt &lt;@user&gt;], Floor Battles [iz bt]. Team/Card Name - Displays your team name and the opponent Team Name. Element Type - Displays all the card element types set on the team. The icons next to it are items (do not worry about them for now), which you can read more about from the recommended guides below. Team/Card Stats - ATK, DEF, INTELLIGENCE (INT), SPEED and CRITICAL HIT DAMAGE are displayed in order. HP and Energy Bar - The current HP and total HP are displayed above the green bar which is a visual representation of your current HP. The orange Energy Bar is a visual representation of your team ARMOR. The next column shows the similar details of the enemy. Battle description of the attack and damage dealt along with the current round is shown. Finally your team and enemy cards are attached to the embed. You can forfeit or fast forward (finish) the battle at any time.
<h3>Important Battle Mechanics</h3>
An important aspect of the game is to understand how each stat works to build an optimal team comp. The ATK stat determines the current attack points of your team, DEF determines defense, SPD determines the speed of your team. SPD stats factors if your Team will attack first. Critical Hit Point is the damage multiplier when your team gets a critical hit. These stats greatly influence the amount of damage your team or card will deal. The INT stat is important because it acts as an Additional SHIELD that can reduce the damage taken from your HP bar. For example: if you have 10hp left and your INT is 300 and the damage dealt by the enemy is 350, your ARMOR will be reduced to 0 and your HP to 5 giving you survival chances to land one more hit. At the start of the battle both teams will start off with full ARMOR and your ARMOR reduces as you take damage. There are card abilities/skills/talents that increase your ARMOR everytime they proc, creating diverse Team Comps. Note: Card abilities that deal Active Damage will directly affect your HP regardless of your teams' ARMOR.
This guide is a beginner friendly battle overview. Checkout the recommended guides for related topics. Create your Team Comps and start climbing!

Beginner Battle and Leveling Guide

<h2>Card and Gold Trading</h2>
Trading cards and gold is an important aspect of the game that allows players to get/exchange cards without having to sell/buy on the Global Market. This features allows player to start their own farming services to make gold. Unlike other games, there is no cool down when you trade a card or the number of times you can trade in a day. To start trading with your friend type [iz tr &lt;@user&gt;]. A confirmation is prompted before the trade is initiated.
<h3>Adding fodders and cards to trade</h3>
iz tr add card - If you already know the #ID of your card in your inventory, type [iz tr add card &lt;#ID&gt;] to add single cards into trade queue. Comma seperated #ID can be used to add more cards. Example: iz tr add card 1,2
iz tr add cards - To add multiple cards into trade by using the filters type [iz tr add cards -r rank &lt;filters&gt;]. Filters include -n &lt;name&gt; -l &lt;limit&gt;. Example: iz tr add cards -n nezuko -r immo -l 10.
adding fodders - To add fodders to trade queue type [iz tr add fodders -l &lt;limit&gt; -n &lt;name&gt;].
If no limit filter is provided, it adds 1 card by default.
<h3>Adding gold to trade</h3>
To trade gold type [iz tr add gold &lt;amount&gt;].
<h3>Viewing your trade queue</h3>
To view the cards being traded between players type [iz tr view]. All the cards and gold in trade queue will not be given to players until the trade is confirmed by both players. Only 10 cards from each player queue can be displayed due to discord's limitation. Tip: Make sure to view the trade before completing it to avoid trading the wrong cards.
<h3>Confirming trade</h3>
To complete the trade both players must first confirm the trade. After making sure that you are trading the right cards, type [iz tr confirm] to confirm the trade. The Trade is automatically completed once both players use this command.

Card Trading Guide

<h2>What are Abilities?</h2>
A major value of a card lies in their abilities or skills. For easy wording I will be referring to abilities as skills. To check the skill of a card in your Inventory use [iz info &lt;#ID&gt;], If you don't own the card but know the name then use the command [iz cinfo &lt;name&gt;]. Skills are especially important while building Teams comps for raids, as a good team comp with the right skills can deal huge damage. To view all abilities available on izzi type [iz abilities]. Note: The skill description shown using this command are Silver Card Rank stats, to view higher rank stats you must use the cinfo or info command.
There are two types of skills - Passive and Active.
<ol>
<li>Passive Skills - They require a condition to be met to activate or they activate once at the start of the battle. Passive skills are denoted with [PSV] next to the skill name. Example: Wrecker buffs your ATK stat by 92% and activates once at the start of the battle. While Berserk buffs any one of ATK / DEF / Crit Chance by 22% activates every time your HP % is lower than the enemy. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139017507504668692/abilities.PNG" alt="izzi passive abilities" width="400" height="271" /></li>
<li>Active Skills - These skills usually activate every 2nd or 3rd round depend on the impact a skill has. This number is usually not mentioned anywhere but when you observe your battles you will see some abilities activate every 2 rounds, and some every 3. This can be synergized to make the most out of your Team Comps. Tip: It is recommended to try the skills and pick cards based on your play style. For more information you can also join Izzi Official Server to get access to the community.</li>
</ol>
The buffs each skill gives is represented by percent (%) and varies based on the Card Rank, higher the card rank higher the buff. Note: Your skills activate based on the order they have been placed in your team from left to right.
<h2>Your Team</h2>
As you progress through the floors you will find yourself wanting to do Raids as they are more beneficial to get more cards and gold rewards. To participate in Raid Challenges you must first create a team. Use the command [iz tm create &lt;team name&gt;] to create a new team, you can create up to 5 teams. For more info about the command use [iz help team]. Note: Team names are case sensitive so, make sure your team names are correctly spelled.
Setting a Card in Team - Once you've created your team, it is now time to assign cards from your Inventory into your team to be able to use them in Raids. Each Team has up to 3 positions. You can place any number of cards in your team but it is recommended to use 3 cards to get the best out of your team comps. To set a card into your team use the command [iz tm set &lt;#ID&gt; &lt;team name&gt;]. If you do not remember the team name you want to assign the card to you can simply use [iz tm set &lt;#ID&gt;] and you will see a dropdown selection to choose the Team to assign the card to. Next you will find yourself looking at your team positions to assign the card to. Simply, choose the position from the dropdown shown. If a card has already been assigned to a position in the team it will be replaced with the new card. Note: If you have already selected a team previously that team will always be shown if a team name is not mentioned. During this scenario you can use the [iz tm view] command to see all the teams you have created. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139024090414461058/tm-set.PNG" alt="set card to team" width="300" height="449" /> 
<img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139024213123014716/tm-set-2.PNG" alt="set card in team position" width="540" height="101" />
Viewing a Team -&nbsp;Now that you've create your first team and assigned cards into your team, you can view your team's power level and total stats. Use [iz tm view &lt;team name&gt;] to view your team. If you do not remember your team name use the command [iz tm view] to get a list of all your teams and choose the team you wish to view from the dropdown. Each team view displays all the positions and the card assigned in team, the total stats and the power level. You will notice there is additional stats enclosed in brackets, these are bonus stats you get from joining a Guild / Clan. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139024684587962458/tm-view.PNG" alt="list of teams" width="300" height="175" />
<img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139024685066096720/tm-view-posi.PNG" alt="view team positions" width="300" height="385" />
Selecting your Team - To attack in raid battles you must have a valid team selected. A valid team must have atleast 1 card you own assigned to any position in the team. To select your team for battle type [iz tm select &lt;team name&gt;]. If you do not remember your team name you can type [iz tm select] and choose the team from the list. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139028476154892408/tm-select.PNG" alt="selecting a team" width="300" height="166" /><img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139028476381376512/tm-select-1.PNG" alt="selecting a team for battle" width="300" height="66" />
Removing your Team - To remove your team type [iz tm remove &lt;team name&gt;]. If you do not remember the team name, type [iz tm remove] and choose the team from the list.
<h2>Team Battles PvP and PvE</h2>
Once you have a valid team selected you are now ready to face Raid Challenges and Player vs Player challenges. To initiate a PvP battle type [iz tm bt &lt;@user&gt;]. This command will prompt a battle confirmation to your opponent, your battle begins when your opponent accepts the challenge. Note that you can also battle your own team by typing [iz tm bt &lt;@your username&gt;]. PvP often leads to Tournaments and exciting events offering great rewards across the servers, so be sure to participate and win!
<h3>How do you testing your Team Comps?</h3>
To make sure your team comp is battle ready you can battle your friends, but what if they are not available at times? There is a convenient way to test your comps. Use the command [iz tm dg] to initiate a random 3v3 PvE challenge against the bot. The difficulty of this challenge is based on your current profile level. <img class="img-responsive" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1138476312890195979/1139032195751755807/tm-dg.PNG" alt="team dungeon battle" width="300" height="555" /> 
<h3>Raid Battles</h3>
You will eventually have enough good cards collected to be able to use them in Raids to receive loot and bonus gold. Once you've joined a raid and the raid has started you can attack the Raid Boss using the command [iz rd bt]. We have not covered all raid commands in this article. Learn more about Raids from the Raids Beginner guide recommended below. For more info about raid commands use [iz help rd].

Teams And Abilities Beginner Guide

Almost every command has filters that makes it easier for you to find cards in your inventory, raid lobbies, markets, trading and enchantmenting. These filters will go after your command: i.e [iz &lt;cmd&gt; &lt;filters&gt;].
<h2>All Supported Filters</h2>
All commands use the common nomenclature for all filters. For a list of all supported filters by a command type [iz help &lt;cmd&gt;]. The indications used below are same for all commands:
-n (name) filter - It is used to look for cards with a specific name. Use comma(,) to include more names. You don't need to type the entire name in the filters. It is relative to the command being used. For example: To look for specific skills from the skill pool type [iz abilities -n wrecker].
-s (series) filter - It is used to look for cards with a specific series. Use comma(,) to include more series. Only supported by few commands such as [iz dex].
-t (element type) filter - Displays the cards that match the element type mentioned (fire, water, wind, poison, crystal, ground....etc). Use comma(,) to include more element types.
-a (card ability or skill) filter - It is used to look for cards with specific abililties or skills. Use comma(,) to include more skills.
-r (card rank) filter - It is used to look for specific card ranks in your inventory or while adding cards to trade. Use comma(,) to specify more ranks.
-pg (page number) filter&nbsp;- It is used to jump to a specific page number while searching for raid lobbies, cards in your inventory, market, dex, guild commands etc.
These are global filters that can used in most commands. It is recommended to frequently check the filters supported by a command using [iz help &lt;cmd&gt;].
<h2>Command Specific Filters</h2>
<h3>Inventory</h3>
-mk (cards on market) filter - It is used to see all the cards you have listed on the Global Market from your Inventory. Example: iz inv -mk
-fav (favorited cards) filter - Displays all the cards you have favorited in your inventory. To add a card to your favorites use [iz fav &lt;#ID&gt;]. Favorited cards will not be consumed even if it is a fodder while using the enh command.&nbsp;For more info type [iz help fav]. Example: iz inv -fav
<h3>Raids</h3>
-d (raid difficulty) filter - It is used to filter specific raid difficulty while search the raid lobbies. This filter is specific to [iz rd lobbies] command. Example: iz rd lobbies -d hard
<h3>IzziDex</h3>
-year filter - Filters the dex for all cards that were added to the bot in a specific year. Example: iz dex -year 2022
Market
-cid (card id) filter - To look for a specific card with specific ID on the market use this filter. This filter is mostly used by players to search for visually appealing ids or their favorite ids. Example: iz mk -cid 69
<h3>Trading</h3>
-l (limit) filter - It is used to specify a limit to the number of cards you want to trade. The default value for this filter is 1. It is mostly used while trading fodders. Example: iz tr add cards -n nezuko -l 1000
<h3>Enchantment</h3>
-ex (exclude cards) filter - It is used to exclude cards you do not want to consume while using the enh command to level your cards. Example: iz enh 1 -ex nezuko,geto (consumes fodders required except Nezuko and Geto fodders)
<h3>Raid Recruitment (guild events)</h3>
You can recruit members to your private raid party using [iz ge rec]. In order to use this command your discord server must be configured to have a pingable role and a channel. For more info check [iz help ge]. To configure this setting use [iz ge rping -ch &lt;#channel&gt; -ro &lt;@role&gt;]. As this command can get complex to explain it is recommend to join the Official Server for support.
-ch (raid recruitment channel) - When the iz ge rec command is used the bot will post the raid details in the configured channel to allow players in your discord server to join your raid.
-ro (raid recruitment role) - When the iz ge rec command is used the bot will ping this role to recruit lobby members.
<h3>All the filters can be used in any order. See the examples below:</h3>
iz inv -r immo -n nezuko - Filters Nezuko Immortal cards from your inventory.
iz inv -n nezuko -r immo - Filters Nezuko Immortal cards from your inventory.
iz dex -a wreck -t fire -s &lt;series&gt; yields the same results as iz dex -t fire -s &lt;series&gt; -a wreck.

Command Filter Library

Hello again summoner,
I hope you were able to make some progress on your floors and zones! Is your selected card leveled up to the maximum yet?&nbsp; Cards come in different ranks - some of them you probably already know:
<ul>
<li>Silver, Gold, Platinum: these are fodder cards. You cannot evolve them into any higher ranked card.</li>
<li>Diamond: this card rank is the first that allows you to evolve several copies into a higher rank. Max level: 60</li>
<li>Legend: two legend cards can be evolved into a divine card. Max level: 60</li>
<li>Divine: two divine cards can be evolved into an immortal card. Max level: 60</li>
<li>Immortal: Immortal cards can be used quite well in raids and are the highest possible rank to get as loot drop in raids. Max level: 70</li>
<li>Exclusive: two immortal cards can be evolved into an exclusive card. Max level: 70</li>
<li>Ultimate: the highest possible rank. Max (enhancable) level: 70&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
You probably also noticed the different card elements. Each card frame corresponds to an element as well. In total, there are 11 elements.&nbsp; The way different elements counteract each other can be a bit diffilcult to explain, so here is a graphic for you to make it a bit easier:&nbsp; 
&nbsp;<img class="img-responsive" src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/787168556156190731/1043127642867646504/unknown.png?width=916&amp;height=876" alt="Element Effectiveness" width="300" height="287" /> 
If you are using a ground card, you will be weak towards crystal and grass.
If you are using a ground card, you will be strong towards electric and poison. Understanding and remembering the different element effectivenesses can be hard at the start, but you will quickly grow used to it. You can use the element effectiveness to your advantage when you battle floors and also when you start participating in raids!

Mia's Beginner Guide - Card Elements and Ranks

Hello summoner,
welcome to Xenverse! We hope your journey here wasn't too long. Rest a little while I explain the basics of this world to you.&nbsp; Firstly, you must select a card to fight alongside you in battle! [iz select 1] This world is full of powerful characters from different zones. Your first task will be to defeat them. Each character is located in a zone, on several particular floors.&nbsp; Try battling the first opponent by doing [iz bt]!&nbsp; Once you won your first battle, you can proceed to the next floor with [iz fl n].&nbsp; After moving to the next floor, you can battle again using [iz bt].
⇛ HINT: Use [iz bt hidebt] and [iz fl n] to move through floors quickly!
Once you got a few floor battles in, you can check your card inventory&nbsp;with [iz inv]! In there, you will find your selected card (card #1) and a few small fodder cards. Fodder cards are cards of the ranks silver, gold and platinum.&nbsp; When you defeat a floor, you gain one fodder card.&nbsp;
⇛ HINT: Use [iz enh 1] to enhance card #1 (your selected card) and level it up!
Well done, summoner! Now, you can keep battling floors and slowly level up your main card. If you feel tired of all the floor battles, you can simply use up all your mana on one floor and farm fodders of the specific floor card using [iz bt all]. As you move through floors and zones, you will gather up more and fodder cards and also gold!&nbsp; You can use your gold&nbsp;to buy other cards from the market that you would like to own.&nbsp; Until next time summoner, be safe, Mia

More Tips and Tricks, Event Edition

Now that you know how to play, here's how to progress into the Xenverse!
(Updated on 1/23/2023)
Floors/Zones For starters, it's nice to get yourself at least a Diamond rank Wrecker card (but any high leveled card will do, for now), as it can sweep up to location/zone 30 at most. Then when you earn enough gold for either a Guardian or a Revitalize of Immortal rank, then go buy one, as they could do the job better in the higher zones with Youmuu's Ghostblade [Item 8] or Bloodthirster [Item 3] equipped. Below are examples of common floor roadblocks you might encounter (These are set to their highest possible rarity for their respective zones):&nbsp;
1. Kumin Tsuyuri (Floor 40-16)
<img src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824286511054585867/936085268237262898/cinfo.jpg?width=304&amp;height=406" />
Element: Wind
Talent: Sleep (Diamond Rank): Inflict a stack of Drowsiness on the enemy causing them to miss their turns until they are awake.
Counters: Poison Element Berserk card. Other option is Guardian that isn't a Crystal element.
Item: Youmuu's Ghostblade [Item 8]
Sleep triggers every 3 rounds, which means Revitalize isn't a viable option. It would be better to gain buffs from berserk and hope that it can get some good damage off before your card has been put to sleep, or outheal her with Guardian until the end of battle, which is 15 rounds, but you only get 1 free heal, which is at round 2. Every other heal can only happen if your card manages to break free from drowsiness.
Berserk counter can only be used against sleep cards that have an elemental weakness. If the said sleep floor is a Neutral Element, better bring a Guardian card with you.
2. Sakurajima Mai (Floor 62-25)
<img src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824286511054585867/936090483556511784/cinfo.jpg?width=304&amp;height=406" />
Element: Neutral
Talent: Guardian&nbsp;(Legend Rank): Restore 23% - 25% HP based on your DEF and also increase the DEF of all allies for the same %.
Counters: Any good stat Revitalize&nbsp;card
Item: Youmuu's Ghostblade [Item 8]
This is where Guardian cannot outheal a Guardian floor, as these floor bosses have way more health than your Immortal Guardian cards. Revitalize would be better because they can boost their ATK to eliminate all the heals and counteract the floor's DEF increase. Better pray that your item give you a lot of evades for that to work.
&nbsp;
3. Rize Tedeza (Floor 84-25)
<img src="https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/824286511054585867/936093501026877470/cinfo.jpg?width=304&amp;height=406" />
Element: Poison
Talent: Point Blank&nbsp;(Divine Rank):&nbsp; Increase the Accuracy of all allies by 23% as well as increasing CRIT Chance by 33%
Counters: Dark Element Berserk (special mentions: Rikka Takanashi &lt;Dark/Electrocute&gt;, Mio Akiyama/Hitori Gotoh &lt;Dark/Revitalize&gt; and Uruha Rushia/Moona Hoshinova &lt;Dark/Sleep/Event&gt;
Item: Bloodthirster [Item 3]
High Accuracy floors tend to break your cards in 2 to 3 hits. This is where elemental advantages take the spotlight. Mitigating the damage taken from the the early and late critical hits can hopefully give you enough health to beat them, although you might have to try a few times as well due to how much they land crits.&nbsp;

[Updated for Izzi v.2.0] Starter Cards for Faster Progression

1. I started my account... What do i do now?
Izzi is a automatic card bot, in easy words; Select card, enter command, watch card do its thing, get reward, rinse and repeat.
This is the main gist of the bot, as you play and are introduced to more complex and harder battles you will need more cards to deal with these challenges, at some point you might even need to upgrade them to a higher rank, then join a guild so your cards are even stronger, and so on and on. But you get the main idea.&nbsp;
Before starting anything i need you to understand that this bots prefix is&nbsp;iz, this means that all commands used start with this prefix. I want to clear this up because in this blog ill only type out the command, not including the prefix. This is just incase you dont understand how prefixes work and try to enter the commands without attaching the prefix. Commands will be written in bold and underline (LIKE THIS) that out of the way, lets get started.
When starting there really is nothing to do but battle the floors of the Xenverse. bt is the command you want to use to initiate these battles. After a battle you will get a set amount of gold and a copy of the card you just fought. I'll get into the details of these later in the guide, but first just remember: Fight floor, get gold.&nbsp;
You might realise that when typing bt, there are a lot of things on the top of the imbed, lets discuss what all of these things are, and mean.
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/932964967689379880/unknown.png" alt="" width="379" height="297" />
A example of a battle by one of our players.
The first thing that might catch your attention is the "Challenging Floor" part, every battle in the Xenverse takes place in a floor on a zone. The zone is indicated by the first number, and the floor by the second behind the stripe ( - ). In a zone, there are multiple floors, the higher the floor the stronger the card, pretty easy.
Next is the text directly under the floor part, it recites the name, rank and level of your card, followed up by the element and hp of your card. The name part isnt really as important but i might as well bring it up, what IS important however, are the element and rank bits. In Izzi there are 11 elemental properties a card can have;
Neutral, Dark, Light, Fire, Ground, Water, Grass, Lighting, Crystal, Wind and Poison.
Elements can interact with one another, being either effective or not effective against another type, this is important to climbing floors because you will always want a elemental advantage over the opponent. Here is a chart of the effectives and ineffectives of every type.
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/boMPE2H63fgfQXJeg5M6M8QnIbLnMOpJNGK6V882gHY/https/media.discordapp.net/attachments/787130866911543297/854396573240262706/unknown-3.jpg" alt="" width="382" height="222" />
**Note: Neutral has no advantage, and disadvantage
You might wanna memorize this as you start fighting harder and harder floors.
The next important bit was the rank part. As card games usually do, Izzi cards are split up into multiple levels of card ranks, specifically into 9 different tiers, those being;
Silver -&gt; Gold -&gt; Platinum -&gt; Diamond -&gt; Legend -&gt; Divine -&gt; Immortal -&gt; Exclusive -&gt; Ultimate
Obvioulsy the higher rank the better.&nbsp;
I dont think i need to explain the hp bar under those two but if you really wanna know, lots of hp good, low hp bad.&nbsp;
After that the same information is written out for the enemy card; Name, rank, level, element and its hp bar. Same song and dance. Under that however is another important part, that being the round count and action relay (not offical name thats just what i call it).&nbsp;
Izzi's combat system is built up on a action per round system, in a round both you and your opppenent will attack. Additionaly both you and your opponent can acitvate their ability but thats for later. All of this information is delivered in the action relay.
After a floor has been beaten you gain access to the next floor, to access this simply type fl n and do the whole battle thing all over again. Once you reach the last floor of a zone, there will be a text stating that you can access the next zone, to get in there type zn (The number of the zone).&nbsp;
Now you should understand the basic of flooring and the Izzi combat system.
&nbsp;
2. How do i learn about my own cards and the other cards in the bot?
Good question, time we move onto our next set of commands. The first is inv, this command lets us open our inventory and see what cards we have at our disposal.
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/932976418323849297/unknown.png" alt="" width="348" height="333" />
This is what it should look like, and of course there are a bunch of new terms you need to pay attention to. The first is the number next to the name of your card. This is the "cards inventory id", this number will be the main way you use your cards in commands, for example: select (or set) is the command used to... well select your card. The selected card is what will be used in battles and showed on your profile. After the cards inventory id is the cards name, pretty self explanatory. After card name is card level. The maximum level a card can reach is determined by the rank of the card, heres the chart for the max level for every rank.&nbsp;
Silver 50 -&gt; Gold 50 -&gt; Platinum 50 -&gt; Diamond 60 -&gt; Legend 60 -&gt; Divine 60 -&gt; Immortal 70 -&gt; Exclusive 70 -&gt; Ultimate 70
After level is the element and ability display. Weve already talked about elements but lets talk about abilites cause oh BOY theres a lot to unpack here. Izzi is home to a staggering 35 different abilities, all of which can interact with each other and against each other. Now i can make a whole different guide about abilities (and i or pareo absolutely will) but for the sake of keeping this one short, you can open abilities to view all of them and see what they do. Below these is a whole new row of information, first is card rank, again weve already touched this so i wont repeat myself, but after that comes a interesting bit, souls. Souls are this close to deserving their own guide but luckily weve figured it out to the point where i can keep it simple. Souls are what allow a card to jump up in rank, once a certain amount of souls are reached you can evolve a card and itll reach a new rank. Now how to get these souls is a different matter, you can sacrifice or guild evo. Now ill get into guild evo during the guild part of this blog, but i can get into sacrifice pretty quickly.&nbsp;
If you have 2 copies of the same card with the same rank you can do sac (inventory id of copy one) (inventory id of card two) The second card you entered will be converted into souls, and then absorbed by the first card, then all you need to do is type evo (inventory id of copy one) and presto you have successfully evolved your card. I will go into more detail about the evo and soul system later during the guild bit / guide / depends on how much energy i have left to write this thing.
Lastly, next to souls you will see the card id. Inventory id and id are two different things, inventory id is sort of like what order the card is in your inventory, while id is the serial number of your card. This id is mostly used when buying or selling cards in the in-game market. Ill get into the market and in-game economy cause thats a whole different can of worms in another guide, but for now this is all you need to know.
Now i dont think you know this, but Izzi is home to 578 unique cards. I know its a lot. God knows its almost impossible to know what each of them do, what zone theyre in, and what their stat spread is. Luckily for you, Izzi has a command that lets you see the information of any card in the Xenverse. By typing ci (card name) you will be presented with the cards stats, ability, name, zone and floor location and series (granted if that character is a card in the bot).
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/932999287464398858/unknown.png" alt="" width="376" height="347" />
Example of command being used.
This interface will also be shown when moving from one floor to the other.
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/932999846426710016/unknown.png" alt="" width="366" height="272" />
Same story just with different information depending on which command was used.
One thing is that you should know is that the stats showed in ci are base stats on silver rank, if you want to see the stats of YOUR card the command becomes i (inventory id).

3. Hey you skipped that weird image thing next to card level when you were explaining inventory, what is that?
So i see you noticed it, well now im going to get into one of the key defining features of Izzi that makes it stand out from others. Equipment. In Izzi there are certain pieces of equipent you can buy that will give your cards a specific ability or boost, these range from just giving your card extra hp to allowing your card to have a life steal effect on every basic attack it does. Make sure to use these items to their upmost potential. Here is a list of items and their effects:&nbsp;

&nbsp;
You can see these items in the market by typing in ishop&nbsp;
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/934821355919130624/unknown.png" alt="" width="441" height="331" />
On this ui you will see the item name, the price, it's category and the market id. To purchase an item use the command ishop buy (item market id), then confirm and you have successfully bought the item. After purchasing make sure to use items to view all owned items and their inventory id's. To equip it, use eq -cr (card inventory id) -i (item inventory id)
<img class="img-responsive" src="https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/844084087315759128/934825052514418730/unknown.png" alt="" width="463" height="368" />

Then just select the card you just equipped the item on and youre ready to rock n' roll the floors of the Xenverse.
&nbsp;
And that about sums it up for what you need to know when you start your journey, i know its a lot to take it but trust me the following guides will be even more convex and lenghty so dont complain just yet.&nbsp; One very important thing i need to say is that you dont always need to have this blog open when you just started out, many of our players in the IzzI official server are more than willing to give you a helping hand (myself included), so dont be shy to come on down to one of the game channels (izzi-1, trust me everyone plays there) and ask for some help.
Thats about it for the first blog, and i'll see yall in the next one. See yall in the OS,
