On Angel Island, new players begin their journey with a freshly cut Unemployment Check inside their backpacks. Unemployment Checks may be used for skill training and are accepted by many NPC vendors as a substitute for gold.

Training

On Angel Island, Unemployment Checks are widely accepted in exchange for training by NPCs. To train using a check, type the following:

(Vendor Name) train (Skill Name) (Gold Amount)

As soon as you press Enter, the value of the Unemployment Check is reduced and your character is trained, provided that the NPC is capable of performing the requested training.

Shopping

On Angel Island, Unemployment Checks can be used to purchase items and supplies from a variety of NPC vendor shops.

Purchasing with an Unemployment Check works the same as purchasing with gold in your backpack. If a transaction fails, the vendor likely does not accept Unemployment Checks as payment. Simply having the check in your backpack is equivalent to carrying gold.

Restrictions

Unemployment Checks are subject to the following limitations:

  • Unemployment Checks are not physical currency and cannot be dropped or stacked like gold.
  • Unemployment Checks cannot be traded or transferred between players.
  • Unemployment Checks may only be used with NPCs that explicitly accept them.
