Context-Sensitive Items
Context-sensitive icons appear in the lower-left portion of
your view and temporarily replace other icons. Two of the
most helpful icons to be aware of are the Digging and
Fishing icons. Health, Mana, and Expressions also appear
just when you need them. Press F1, F2, or F3 to use the
item you need—the shovel, fishing rod, or whatever else makes
itself available. Pay close attention to these, and you never know
what you might discover.
Hotbar Items
You can drag up to nine items,
expressions, and spells to the Hotbar.
Press 1–9 to use them as the need arises.
General Experience Points
The General Experience Points notification appears
momentarily to indicate an increase in General
Experience points. These are accumulated by gathering
Experience Orbs.
Strength Experience Points
The Strength Experience Points notification
appears momentarily to indicate an increase in
Strength Experience points. These are accumulated by using your
fists or melee weapons in close combat.
Skill Experience Points
The Skill Experience Points notification appears
momentarily to indicate an increase in Skill
Experience points. These are accumulated by using the bow.
Will Experience Points
The Will Experience Points notification appears
momentarily to indicate an increase in Will
Experience points. These are accumulated by using magic.
t Your Command
The following information describes the primary
items that appear in your view. Key commands
shown below are based on WASD key mapping. We
are unable, apprentice, to describe every possible option
but have focused on those you will encounter most often.
Health Bar
The red bar in the upper-left portion of your
view is the Health bar. Each time you receive a
hit from an enemy, it impacts your health. Replenish your health
by eating some food or drinking a potion.
Mana Bar
The blue bar in the upper-left portion of your
view is the Mana bar. Mana depletes when you
use magical powers of the Will. It replenishes with time, but
returns more quickly when you drink blue potions.
Combat Multiplier
The Combat Multiplier indicates how much
Experience of all types you gain when you inflict
blows upon your enemies. The higher the number, the more
Experience points gained when you absorb Experience Orbs left in
the wake of their deaths. For this reason, it is prudent to wait
until you have your way with an entire group of enemies before
absorbing the Experience Orbs.
Interact Icon
This Interact icon reveals interactive objects, which emit a
blue or purple glow. Press Tab to interact with them.
