Dialogue[]
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Good day, [Player Character]. I've been stationed here at the outpost to teach the Overlord's newest recruits about equipment and inventory space. Good equipment is one of the most important aspects of any adventurer!"
- Player Character: "Tell me about items and equipment."
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Norrath is full of wealth and treasures for brave heroes like you. Sometimes the opponents you defeat in battle leave behind treasure chests with valuable loot. You can also buy items from other players, craft them as an artisan, or be awarded items for completing quests."
- Player Character: "What can I do with the treasures I earn while adventuring?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Some items you obtain can be equipped on your person. If you find weapons, armor, jewelry, or certain other goodies, you may be able to use them. To look at an item and determine if you can use it, move your mouse pointer over the item."
- Player Character: "What does the item information tell me?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "For items that can be equipped, such as weapons or armor, mousing over it tells you which professions can use the item and at what level it can be equipped. You'll also see any benefits, such as attribute bonuses and resists, that the equipment provides. Learn about attributes by talking to Trainer Nogg Dreadscar."
- Player Character: "Are things like attribute bonuses important?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "A wise adventurer is always trying to improve his or her equipment. Whenever you see gear that provides an overall greater benefit than what you have, that item is an upgrade for you."
- Player Character: "How can I tell which of two weapons is better?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Weapons have a Damage Rating that shows the relative damage you can do with them. A higher Damage Rating is always better. Be sure you are comparing two weapons of the same type, such as a two-handed weapon with another two-hander, or one dual-wield weapon with another."
- Player Character: "How can I tell which of two pieces of armor is better?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "How you judge armor depends on your profession. Fighters who take a beating care most about obtaining armor that has a high Mitigation, which decreases the amount of damage they take. Mages, on the other hand, know they can't take much punishment anyway, so would rather have armor that provides nice attribute bonuses."
- Player Character: "What about scouts and priests?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Scouts and priests need varying amounts of protection depending on how they play. If they find themselves at the forefront of battle, protection becomes very important. If they stay out of harm's way, attribute bonuses may be more valuable."
- Player Character: "What do I do with items I can't use?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "An item can be sold to a non-player merchant for cash unless it has the "No Value" flag on it. Items can be sold or traded to another player unless it has the "No Trade" flag. If an item says it is "Lore," you can only have one of them on your character at a time."
- Player Character: "Why are some items marked "No Value" or "No Trade"?
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Some items are marked "No Value" because they are easy to obtain, such as harvested goods. You have to work to earn wealth, [Player Character]! Items are marked "No Trade" in order to ensure that you earn them yourself, such as defeating a very tough monster or completing a long quest."
- Player Character: "what does it mean when an item says it is "Attuneable"?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "If an item is marked "Attuneable," you must attune it to yourself before it provides any benefits. You'll notice a message on your screen when you are wearing an item that must be attuned. to attune it, right-click on the item and select "Attune." Once attuned, that item can no longer be traded or sold to another player."
- Player Character: "How do I manage my inventory?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Press the I key to view your inventory. Beneath your portrait are six slots that can hold items. You can place bags or other containers in those slots, which will give you even more storage space. Press the B key to open all your bags at once."
- Player Character: "Are things like attribute bonuses important?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Only empty bags can go inside other bags. For this reason, it's a good idea to get hold of containers with many slots. After a long night of adventuring, you'll want to have as many places to store your goodies as possible."
- Player Character: "So one item takes up one bag slot?"
- Trainer Corx Knickknack: "Certain items, such as ammunition or harvested resources, can be stacked up to 200 at a time, depending on the item. Many goods, such as armor and clothing, cannot be stacked at all."
- Player Character: "I will return for instruction later."
