There seems to be so many uncommon or unknown things in this game that I have either inadvertantly learned or that were taught to me from others who have passed on their wisdom.
I wanted to start a thread where people could share their knowlege or ideas of things that aren't common knowlege, you learned by mistake, or cool things to share.
To start I just naturally assumed that you had to remove a gem from a piece of gear in order to put in a new one. That is incorrect. You can put a new gem over an old gem (but you lose the old gem). I did not know that.
I was told (and then proved for myself) That you get better stats by mixing set piece bonuses (and a higher gear score) Rather than going for the 4 piece set bonus, the two 2 piece set bonuses seem to a better deal. (For me... may vary based on class, gear etc)
Many people do not understand how the companions work. The starting companions only get as high as level 15 which is about Character level 30. The Green level companions get to level 20 (lvl 40), the Blue level companions get to level 25 (lvl 50) and the Purple get to lvl 30 (lvl 60) . Obtaining the higher level companions is not easy, but they make a huge difference as they are leveled. You also want to use Exp gems in them in the beginning to speed things up a bit.
Please post your new found game experiences so that others (newbs like myself.... Lvl 60 in 11k GS and still a newb apparently hehe) may learn from your experiences!
Thanks!

this is a guide for star trek online, but the basics are the exact same. the tray commands are different, but if you first save a default bind file, once you open it up you can look at your existing binds to see what the command is to execute the Q skill, for example.

Looking for reviews (will trade)!

Nice link - thanks for that!
Ctrl + Drag stack lets you specify the amount to split off of main stack.
Lore comes from talking too. Make sure you talk to everyone in each wilderness, dungeon and skirmish. You never know who will give you some new lore.
Each wilderness has 3 scrying stones. This is a fun achievement to try to complete.
If you fuse your enchants save all your celestial coins till you have seven. The box you get with 7 coins can give a coal ward. If you do not fuse the 5 coin box is better value for you.
A good way to slow down your leveling is to not do any foundry quests: unfortunately.
If you are 60 but have pets under cap, summon them when ever you complete a profession and pray so they get the exp.
Always try to do your daily dungeon during a delve event for a double whammy.
Wait to pick up an item that will cause a roll until all the fighting is done-basic good manners and common sense.
If, right before you click on a profession node you say the magic word 'Mahakina' into your mic->when you click on node you get more items. (tease-not true)
Peace

To see FPS graph in bottom right corner:
/fpsgraph 1
Replace 1 with 0 to turn them off.
Stone of allure-zen market purchase is currently the best pet for casters and clerics-it doesnt fight but shares its stats with you.
The cat-astral diamond purchase- is best for fighters-it also shares its stats with you -mainly crit.
Being that the cat costs almost 2 million ad-when the devs saw hundreds of them 30 days after public beta started-they knew the ah bug was severe. So that is why we have a Caturday Title and cloak.
Guilds: You need five people to start a guild but you don't need 5 to keep it going. 1 person will do.
Small correction, almost 1 million AD. 980,000 to be exact.
Can't remember where I read it, but it said that companions items are scaled down to its level, and its powers are scaled up if fighting enemies of your level but higher than itself.
but yes, the scaling isn't much of a change, and they are still OP at lower levels
Yeah they fixed the bug where if you were in combat near it, it would snap and snarl at the group. so you know it was a trap.
Default is 55
Range you can set it to is 30 ~ 150
Another one people don't quite know is holding left Ctrl while targeting something. It locks onto the target, which is pretty useful for things that try to dodge. Could be useful for clerics that's trying to lock on a party member that keeps jumping around xD

Now you can strut in style. May need to blast Bee Gee's Stayin' Alive for full effect.
I also learned that enchantment stones in your warehouse show up when wanting to enchant your gear, just as if they were in your bag. With our limited space, nice to know those numerous ranks of stones can be kept there and still used.
Also unlike a real chest you can walk through a mimic.
Yeah!!!
not useful for a cleric in that situation, trying to heal them the first time is difficult and you usually heal someone else instead which means if you do the lock you are likely to have locked onto someone else (if they run and jump around all the time then its fine to let them die)... it is also difficult for clerics to heal you if you stand on top of them, give them some space with nobody on your team between you and stop running circles around your cleric and you may be healed a lot more and a lot faster ... if you move around like that to avoid your opponents from locking on or catching you then you are also doing that to your cleric). As to the view, just use the wheel on your mouse to zoom it in or out, no need to contend with number settings.
