How to set up auto-forage.

/doability # (#=Forage on action bar)
/pause 10
/autoinventory

I've always just bound Forage to a movement key, but never realized how easy the above made things.. and 3 of my 5 toons have forage.

This isn't classic and was an LoY addition I believe.

/Autoinventory wasn't added until after GoD I'm pretty sure. It definitely wasn't in during PoP.

Hopefully one day they can disable that command, though, with the keyboards and mouse available now a days there isn't much point sadly.

Most high end players know this but instaclickies ala Shrunken Goblin Skull Earring will reset your global spell cooldown, enabling you to cast spells quicker. The spell effect from the instaclick doesn't even need to take effect to reset the cooldown timer, so for example using jboots when you already have SoW will not overwrite SoW but it will reset your global spell cooldown, as long as you are outdoors. This is incredibly useful for shamans who want to quickly buff a player with a variety of buffs, or to quickly cannibalize down. By memorizing Canni 2 and Canni 3 they are able to cast Canni 2, click their instaclick, cast Canni 3, click their instaclick, and repeat.

Global Cooldown Trick
The first spell slot acts differently then other spell slots. If you memorize Canni 3 to your first spell slot, and give just a half moment pause, it is possible to cast Canni 3 twice inbetween server ticks, using the Global Cool Down insta click reset thing. No need for another spell slot, or canni 2.

The Rez Trick
I'm not sure why, among all the cool tricks on the server, this isn't more well known. It's very easy:

1: Be in the same zone as corpse.
2: Tap /corpse and DO NOT MOVE. You must remain at the exact same /loc as your corpse.
3: Have Rez cast on the corpse.
4: Wait until the "Yes/No" box appears. Begin casting a spell. Accept the rez mid spell cast.
5: You always channel this spell, as long as you and the corpse are the same /loc when you accept the rez.

This allows Clerics to Heroism (or whatever) their group after a wipe, themselves included. Enchanters can group Clarity, Druids can Mask themselves, Shamans can Torpor, Wizards can Harvest etc.
For almost any class that can cast a pet, I suggest the pet be your spell of choice, in part because....

Pet Reclaim
Any class can use the 4 magician items from Temple of Solusek Ro to reclaim a pet. Great for rolling the highest level pet, reclaiming mana after a rez, reclaiming a pet for emergency mana.

Pet Powerleveling
A pet that dies or is reclaimed has its damage assigned to no one, much the same as feign death or damage shields.

Cool list guys, keep it goin.

I learned that for warriors under lvl 37 aggro is very difficult.

[Baler]

I learned that there are keys for 'Open Inventory Bags' & 'Close Inventory Bags' In the options under Keys > Commands.

Saved myself 2 to 16 clicks with the mouse. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just today I learned that clerics get Summon Water, Summon Food, and Gate. At pretty standard levels, too. I don't know how I didn't know. The way I remembered it, druids were the only non-cloth class with Gate, while only they and magicians received Summon Food and Summon Water.
