What have you learned about the game recently?

[Sorn]

This is not a gameplay tip, but it occurred to me that not everyone knows it. You know when you're starting the game and have to sit through the SOE logo screen?

You don't have to wait for it to go away! You can just click and it'll switch to the login screen!

That if you are not a monk, war, or rogue... you are irrelevant. Unless you roll caster/priest.

It is kinda hard to make out, but I think I see what's between those lines ^^

Relevance is relative.... ^^v

Ugh, I tried resetting bindings to default and that didn't even work.

This key works fine in all other applications, just not EQ.

I had this issue in EQ Live a few years back, the solution was to disable an infrared remote I had installed. It's probably something similar here.

typing /pet feign twice quickly (or just make a macro) will make your pet perform it's death animation but is otherwise the same as /pet sit. Useful for when the tank in your group doesn't understand that he's trying to attack a charmed pet.

.

It interrupts pet spell cast too
Do dis 2 stahp stoopid pet from cast dispell.

It was stated before, but while leveling pottery for Velious, I learned that shift-clicking a stack of items will yield one of that item on your cursor.

I didn't realize this until pottery 80. My level 60 warrior has a fletching skill of 200. Rest in peaces

Shift+click picks up the whole stack

Ctrl+click picks up 1 item off the stack

I learned that, unlike Mage and Wizard Bolt spells, arrows WILL strike any mob that wanders between you and your target.

I REALLY didn't mean to shoot that werewolf!!

Maneater Plant Salves can be used as bandages (cost 5 plat a stack instead of 1 though)!

Did a small sample run with these and i "thought" they added more hit point per use than regular bandages.

It just not worth it from what i remember of my sample run you can just get MORE reg bandage for the cost of those salves.

This is old one:

Merchant mining.

In the process of clearing out a visible slot you will sometime get another player come to sell stuff at merchant you are mining. You take the risk of that player buying stuff from slot you just clear if you close the merchant interface. Wait till the other player or players leave then close merchant window and reopen to see the new cleared slot item. The other player will not see as far i can tell the new cleared slot items so long as you keep your merchant interface open.

If you clear a merchant visible slot while someone else selling /buying form merchant and you close your interface with the merchant. You will not see the new item/items pop into the cleared slot till that other player/players leaves merchant interface and you reopen merhcant.

I've seen bolt spells do the same thing!
