Name Ranger's pet
Type /namepet <name> at the chat
window. Note: Make sure to put a space between the "t"
of "pet" and the name of your pet.
Check deaths
Type /deaths at the chat window to check your
deaths in the game.
Checking hours of game play
While playing the game at any time, you can "broadcast"
your "age", which represents the hours you have played
the game. Press [Enter] then type /age. You can
do this in any of the voice commands (Guild, All, Team, etc.)
to let your friends find out just how long you've played.
Bonus items
Note: The Game Of The Year edition is required. When
in a town or outpost type /bonus. You should get some of
the best items in the game. Although you can do this more than
once, there is no point as the items are customized just for you
and are worth nothing to merchants.
Charr Hides
An easy way to get lots of Charr Hides (a valuable
item that gives fur squares), and sometimes Rune, is to continually
play the Ruins of Surmia mission in Ascalon. It is recommended
that you are level 10 or higher or be with a party with level
10 or higher players. Make sure to have Resurrection Signet equipped,
as it may be needed. Also, get both the bags and the belt pouch
to hold all the items that are dropped. This is also useful for
leveling up easily.
Using Resurrection Signet multiple times
Resurrection Signet becomes unusable after you resurrected
someone, but when you defeat a Boss it becomes usable again.
Making Gold Dye
First, mix Orange and Silver to make Sweet 1. Then
mix Sweet 1 and Yellow to make Sweet 2. Finally, mix Sweet 2 and
Silver to make Gold Dye (O+S+Y+S).
Making Pink Dye
- Mix Purple and Red (and Silver for a darker pink). This looks very nice on warriors.
- To make a very light colored pink dye, mix Red and Silver dye together. It very really good on Elementalists.
Easy money
You can "farm" gold by choosing a species
of enemy to hunt to collect their gold drop. In the Ascalon area,
the biggest gold drop is 20 gold. Try going to Kryta and hunting
the Ettins in the west end for better drops (20 to 80 gold). The
best areas are in the Maguma Jungle and Crystal Desert (80 to
130 gold). These areas are very difficult for most people, and
they choose to "run" to the next town/outpost/city instead
of fighting. Instead of loosing money from it (most runners ask
500 to 4,000 gold in payment), fight your way there. You will
make money and level up quickly.
Gift For Althea quest: More money
After you have collected either the Beautiful Feather
(in middle of Lakeside Village), Beautiful Pearl (in a beautiful
shell near Miller Upton's home), or Beautiful Pendant (in a chest
slightly northeast of the bandit camp) and take it to him, he
will decline the gift saying it is not good enough. Instead of
getting the other two items to show him, you can simply talk to
him about the beautiful item again. This time he will take the
gift.
Gift For Althea quest: Easier completion
After you get either the Beautiful Feather, Pearl, or Pendant, instead of taking it to him, take it to Althea and you will get the reward. She will say something about talking with him, and if you already did the "Mesmer's Burden" quest and have the Devourer Egg for Old Mack, she will walk away.
Easy faction points
Immediately after logging into the game with a PvP
character, start the "The Team Trials" quest. Complete
all the missions until you get to the last one, "The Killcount".
Intentionally lose this mission and you will be taken back to
the beginning. Repeat this until you think you have the desired
amount of faction points then complete the last match to make
it to the PvP grouping lobby location. Talk to the Priest next
to the storage people to spend your points on items and skills.
Note: Killing as many people as you can in the missions will gain
more faction points.
Drop rates
The drop rate is determined by the number of Henchmen
you have with you if you are the only player. Each Henchmen reduces
the drop rate by one-half the normal drop rate. Therefore, with
a group of seven Henchmen and you, the chances of getting a drop
is very slim. Also, when you are with Henchmen the amount of gold
dropped from the enemies is split up between all of the Henchmen
and you.
Recover death penalty
If you complete a quest while not inside a town and have a death penalty, the majority, if not all of it, will be removed when you complete the quest and receive you reward.
Invincible Ranger's hog
If you have the skill to tame animals, find the prize winning hogs in Wizards Folly. Once you have one as a pet, they will never get hit because the enemies ignore them. It does not do a lot of damage at first, but once it levels up it can be a very big help.
Nonsense language
Select "Options", and open the "Language" menu. At the bottom of the list of standard languages is an option for "Bork! Bork! Bork!". Select it to see all text as nonsense.
