Start on Whale Island, locate a questboard, and follow the objective you accept. Learn movement and defense before queueing for the Hunter Exam. Choosing an affinity does not finish Nen progression.
This route is for your first session in Beyond Nen. It covers a practical starting loop supported by the developer’s description, a community reference and release-period footage. It does not promise a fastest leveling route or a fixed time to reach the exam.
Whale Island: find the starting questboard
Open the Roblox game linked here and check that the creator is the Beyond Nen group. The official description identifies Whale Island as the starting point. Do not follow a walkthrough for a different Hunter × Hunter game just because its ability names look familiar.
In HollowWRL’s November 7 video, the 1:30 checkpoint shows a questboard near the starting area. The world tracker lets the player show questboards and other markers. On PC, the community controls card lists P for this tracker.
Use the board marker to orient yourself, then read the available quest before accepting it. Keep the objective visible while you travel. The useful first outcome is knowing where your task is and what counts toward it; random fighting is harder to judge without that context.
The World Tracker can show questboards and campfires. Use the markers to get your bearings before heading out.

PC controls: learn movement and defense
These inputs are documented by the community controls card. They are a starting reference for keyboard and mouse, not a claim about mobile or console layouts. Check your game’s current controls if a binding differs.
| PC input | Documented action |
|---|---|
| Double-tap W | Run |
| Q | Dash / evade |
| F | Block / parry |
| Left mouse | Basic attack |
| M | Menu |
| P | Questboard and important NPC markers |

First quests: build a repeatable loop
Practice running, changing direction and blocking before taking a crowded fight. A short practice loop near a familiar landmark is easier to recover from than learning every input during an exam. This is preparation advice, not a hidden requirement.
- 01
Choose one readable objective
Read the task and its target before leaving the board. Use the active quest panel to check whether you accepted the task you intended.
- 02
Follow markers, then check progress
Travel toward the named objective and watch for the quest counter or instruction to change. If progress stalls, reread the target instead of assuming every similar enemy counts.
- 03
Finish the displayed hand-in
Follow the completion instruction in your current quest. Do not assume every task pays automatically or has the same reward as a video.
- 04
Review before choosing another task
Check your level, equipment and available options. Continue with tasks you can manage; the guide does not prescribe an untested stat allocation or a fixed number of repetitions.

Campfires: show markers before exploring
At 1:30 in HollowWRL’s video, the World Tracker has separate filters for campfires, questboards and important locations. On PC, the community controls reference lists P for opening this tracker. Showing the campfire markers is a useful way to read the area around your current objective.
The November 8 community campfire card describes campfires as respawn and travel points and includes location screenshots. When you find one, read the interaction prompt before relying on it. Exact travel costs and unlock conditions have not been tested here.

Hunter Exam: prepare before joining
The community exam reference lists level 10 and the Hunter Exams option on the main menu. That is an entry threshold, not a guarantee that a new character can clear the event. Release footage shows running, maze, badge and duel chapters.
Before queueing, make sure you can move reliably and identify your defensive input. Read our exam guide for the stage outline and the source disagreements you should check against your server’s instructions.

Nen: keep selection and unlocking separate
The developer describes discovering an affinity and pairing abilities with a suitable weapon. The community progression card distinguishes those selections from unlocking Nen. Release footage later shows a Rohan quest and meditation.
Do not spend spins simply because an anime ability sounds strong. First identify what you selected, what your current objective asks for, and which options the game actually offers. Our Nen guide explains those distinctions without a speculative tier list.
