    To steal a kill, I don't recommend it unless you want to killed by another player, you attack a monster that is being attacked by someone else. Whoever does the most damage gets the credit for the kill.

    ^^ is a smiley, a bit like :)

    PK'ing is Player Killing (so attacking other players)

    SP is Spirit Points. If you press 'C' you'll see it just above your stats on the right. It's on a single line. You'll use SP to learn skills and venomancers use it to also teach there pets skills. Also you can use SP to level your genie.

    In regards to PK, which oxy asked, SP means Secret Passage. It is the area you must wade through to get to FB29, a bit north of Arch. No flying (or flying pets) and pretty tight quarters.

    You wouldn't believe the number of things people have told me FB stands for.

    the most common is "final battle" because it comes right before you lvl up to the next tens digit number... i.e., final battle of lvl 19 which should put your exp up to level 20.

    I've also gotten; first battle, final beast, finished battle, fatal battle, final blow, and fearful battle

    And just so ya know... all those came from lvl 50+ players. b:chuckle

    Its an item you keep in your inventory so when you die to a monster you don't lose any XP. Also, if you die in PvP you have no chance to drop your items.

    They are called Guardian Angels, Angels, or Dolls.

    pulled from the OP's (original posters) post:

    "FB - Fuben (= Chinese for dungeon), the dungeon quests you have to do at higher level but which you receive at level 19, 29, ..."

    so FB29 means the 29th level quest you do (instanced, I am pretty sure..correct me if I misunderstood that part.)

    "bh" stands for bounty hunter, which is a daily quest to kill various FB bosses dependent on your level.

    Okay, could someone please tell me what "RB", "FQ", "TT", "ZHEN", and "DDS" means? I keep seeing it in the world chat, but I can't figure out what they mean and I can't find the answers anywhere.


    DDS is a degree that permits one to practice dentistry.

    on a side-note, QQ may be USED to signify crying eyes, but it comes from another MMO where using the keystroke "alt qq" would make you quit the game and exit the client. (ragequit is the closest ive seen on it so far in the thread)
