Whenever i start my comp and go into P99 the java update always fucks it up. Freeze..

It isn't actually frozen. Alt+Enter (Shortcut to switch to Windowed Mode) will fix it.

type /pizza to order from pizza hut. I do it about every 3 hours when I'm camping dragons.

This always reminds me of the time Blizzard said for April 1st they were implementing /panda into WoW. Chinese food delivery from your computer!

Most people know about binding your sense heading skill to your Left and Right movements to incrase your skill.
Same can be done with click triggers. Bind your epic or clicks to a kick skill. Easy way to maintain your top buff spot for clicks

When replying tells you can cycle your tells easily by macroing the cycle. Mine is shift+tab.

Shift+up/down to jump through your typed messages. Same thing with Chest though where my keys lock up and I need to hit shift+space+enter at the same time to release it.

shift+k is music player

Dragging corpses with macro so you can drag 2 corpses at once, or lower your clicks by /tar Kagey's
/corpse
/pause 2
/corpse

Target cycle is a great tool also. Set mine to Tab and just watch for the flashing name. Still assist on raids however.

When does /tgb on come into play. velious? (target group buff)

When levitating, alt tab to another window when at the lowest "bob", and click back in at the peak - do this a few times to raise yourself up a bit. Helpful for going up ledges in HS or what not. If you cant easily time the "bobs" because they're too fast, adjust your max FPS down.

Another is fall damage. If you have a computer capable of running EQ at high FPS (nearly all of us should), set your max FPS slider to max before dropping - you can drop into the hole etc and take minimal fall damage. Not sure if there is a limit to how far you can fall before breaking your back this way.... Set max fps slider back after you drop.

Evac to zone in with shrink. I need to toy with this more, but if you are shrunk and camp out in a corner, then log back in - you often get punted back to the zones "safe spot" which is often at the zone in.

Enchanters (or anyone thats a gnome) can "gnome" their way through the hole entrance underwater gate / wall.

Is there any advantage to having the FPS set to anything below the max, aside from making lev trick easier?

Turn rate is much higher at lower fps when right clicking unless you use something like wineq/eqplaynice

If you hold shift while typing raid commands in /shout or /guild people actually do them.
