TITLE
This panel lists all the Titles you have
earned, sorted by type. You begin
the game with one Heritage Title,
referring to your homeland. As you
adventure, you earn more fame, and
thus more Titles. Most are based on
accomplishments of various sorts
(for example, “…the Spider-killer”,
“…Watcher of the Path”). Some are
based on crafting achievements.
You may display any Title you have
earned, so that other players see it
over your head with your name. To
display a Title, select it and then se-
lect Make Active. Your active Title
will be displayed in the window at
the bottom of the panel. To hide a
Title, select Clear Active.
Click on a “–” box to minimize all
the Titles of that type. Click on a “+”
box to view all the Titles of that type.
You can sort Titles (within a type)
Alphabetically
or by Newest First.
1* Auto-attack Button
Once you have a target, click this
button to start attacking. Cham-
pions have a Fervour meter above
their Auto-attack, and Hunters have
a Focus meter in the same place.
1( Quickslot Bars
Primary Quickslot Bar. At the
bottom of the screen is a Quickslot
bar. Quickslot bars each contain 12
spaces to place customized shortcuts
that let you quickly perform actions,
such as triggering a skill or swapping
equipment. Skills, equipment, armour
and even food can be added to the
slots in this bar. You can assign skills
and equippable items (such as weap-
ons and armour) to a Quickslot by
dragging the icon from the appropri-
ate window (such as your inventory)
to a slot on the Quickslot bar.
You can activate a Quickslot by
either clicking it with the cursor, or
pressing the corresponding button
(1 – = on the top row of your
keyboard).
Bars 1, 2 & 3
You can access three more Quick-
slot bars by pressing c, a or
s. All three bars can appear at
once, and you can slot icons on
them while they are all visible, but
you cannot activate a slotted icon if
you are pressing more than one of
those three keys. Press s, c
or a plus 1 – = to activate the
icon in that location.
By default, when Bar 1 (c) is
visible, it is just above the primary
Quickslot bar. (It is identifi able by
the “C+X” notation at the bottom
of each slot.) Bar 2 (a; “A+X”) is
always next in order — fi rst, if Bar
1 is not visible. And Bar 3 (s;
“S+X”) is on top.
Bars 4 & 5
There are two more Quickslot bars
available, which you can display
through the Options menu (p. 97).
You can only activate an icon in Bar
4 or 5 by clicking on it — there are
no default keystrokes (but, as with
most things, you can modify that
through the Options).
Changing Default Settings
To access Bars 4 and 5, or to change
any of the other settings for your
Quickslot bars, see Options:
Quickslots
(p. 97). Here you can
select which extra Quickslot bars
you want active and you can make
them horizontal or vertical.
2) Inventory Bags I
You have fi ve bags in which your
inventory is kept. Click on an in-
dividual bag icon to open that bag.
You can also open or close all fi ve
bags in your inventory by pressing
I, and you can scroll through your
bags by pressing c1–5.
Customizing Your Screen
The main screen illustration on p.
49 shows the default location for
each item. However, you can move
nearly every element to a new
location on the screen. Press c#
to display “handles” for every UI
element that can move. Place your
cursor over an element (the cursor
becomes the same crossbar that
you use to move other windows)
and drag the element to where
you want it. Press c# again to
de-activate this display.
NPCs
NPCs (non-player characters) are
all the characters in the game who
are not controlled by a player. They
are the people of Middle-earth.
Certain NPCs have icons above
their heads. This indicates they may
have something to tell your charac-
ter (perhaps a quest to offer you).
Other NPCs have titles after their
names. These titles can tell
you what that NPC does,
be it selling equipment or
training adventurers. You
can also toggle on fl oating
icons over each NPC’s
head that indicate what
he does (by pressing N,
or by going to Overhead
Non-Quest Icons, in the
Options: UI Settings
screen). Regular citizens
do not have icons.
To talk to any NPC, go up
to him and right-click or
double-left-click on him.
If he has something to say,
he will talk to you.
The colour of a character’s name
tells you something about him. You
can change these (in Options), but
the defaults are:
Green Your fellowship
Dark Red Your raid
Light Blue Your Kinship
Yellow
You and any other
players or NPCs
White Objects (including doors)
