It's not like you are explaining, and it's on our todo list to make it like real Tibia.
On real Tibia it works like this: 500, you get the shield and you can use first addon scroll (but you don't get the scroll so you don't get any addon unless you buy a scroll from someone!), 1000 and you can use the second addon scroll (again, you don't get any scroll, only ability to use it), after handing in 1500 more you can create the addon scrolls.
