I dont know, probably the same person who came up with a pretty reasonable formula for the hp docs prices.

A nice way to gain space in the task bar....

When your crit is on a stairs, not a place one has to climb up or down, put your cursor on the stairs, click left click right, quickly and you will either climb up or down with whatever the stairs are.

Also, make sure you have no scheduled taskes timed for when you are on a major hunt.
(really screwes up the fun to find just as you are about to see that draggy die, defragg starts...:)

Silly players with too much time on their hands who test things like energizer bunnies.

I'd just like to say I've actually been having fun NOT testing things for once <G>

Brad,

I'd say the hit doc price schedule is substantially easier to test than distinctions between races. Wouldn't you?

Misc. crap:

any bank in cob or aleria.. go to them, click the banker and above it will read.. "Bank of Nork".

Walk thru one of the CH portals, it will take you into a room with two portals.. one goes to mujaba, one goes to a random place in nork, yes, random..any lair in nork.:hoho :hoho :hoho

when you run thru the Slicer lair on the way to Cob, you will get a description of the room which you can read at leisure on the other side of the portal. It talks about a bedroom with sumptous tapestries depicting a great warrior, a round bed and a mirrored ceiling.

Above the Dukes chambers in Aleria's main town, there was, (or may still be) a hall dedicated to great guilds of old, something like the "Hall of Bigness" above the SF

How to sell all your gems in three easy steps. This requires three macros, but it's worth it for the time you save. (Is it possible to combine the first two? Haven't been able to so far.)

1. Dump gems:
dump all gems on counter;

2. Sell Gems:
eld, buy alll; <-- This needs to be edited periodically for whoever you sell to. Eld is the Nork alchemist at the moment.

3. Pocket Cash:
take coins from counter and put it in sack;

Put these three in a row and you can sell a sackful of gems in approximately five seconds. Great for coining! Note that this does expose your gems and then coins on the counter for a brief instant, so if someone's at the counter and you're paranoid, you may want to wait till they've gone. (Also be careful you dont sell something they're getting appraised!) The dump command appears to work for gems only, not helms or rings or any other type of item.

Using macros is much faster for selling gems, and IMO much easier as well.

You can also use the shift button for changing gear (Cob to Nork etc.)Hit shift then click each item when all clicked drag to locker or to yourself.

I tried the control-click method. Macroing is much faster.

um, it takes u 5 mins to make the marcos, and when u use shift u have to click each gem, at least 20 clicks, 30 if full sack, where as marco is 3 clicks, i dotn see how clicking more is easier :P

Tried the sell macros thing and the first 2 work great and are great time savors. The problem is the third one. I try it and it says you are not holding that. I have tried with the counter window open and closed. If I put my coins in my hand then the macro will put them in the sack but it will not pick them up from the counter for anything. Any suggestions of what I might have done wrong with the settings or what about that macro needs to be changed?

Yeah i have also tried the macros out, and i stand corrected :) it is faster although i had got used to clicking my whole sack in under 5 seconds.

I also have the same problem as Thunder though the coins only make it to my hand not my sack.

The macro I used to use was:

take 500000 coins from counter; put coins in sack

It always worked for me.

Do you have to put in the " ; " cause thats probably the problem. like putting two commands in one sentance and so only the first one works.

Ok the macros that works for me is "Take coins from counter; put coins in sack"

Whoops! I don't have the ; on the end of the third one. Maybe that's why its working for me and not everyone else? Sorry about that... Actually, the semicolons probably aren't needed for any of them...

Banking macros go as follows:

To withdrawl 500,000 and put on counter: <banker name>,withdrawl 500000;@up
To deposit the money off the counter- <banker name>,deposit coins;@in

Hope this helps:)
