Complete list of Tips of the Day
--------------------------------
The TAKE command can be used to take classes of objects, like CLOTHING.
See HELP OBJECT.
Switch tips off by using NOTIP.
The Traveller's Rest storage system now allows you to go straight to the
locker room without asking for a key; one is assigned automatically.
AUTOEQ when in a locker room or a traveller's cloakroom automatically assigns
you the best armour and weapon that is in the room, and will warn you if
you have no light, weapon, or key.
The TAKE command can be used with EXCEPT, for example TAKE ALL EXCEPT FOOD.
See HELP OBJECT.
Objects can be identified by a unique item number, which can be easier to
specify than referring to ring9, for example.  Use either ITEMNUMBERS or
INVMODE IN to toggle this feature on/off.
Items belonging to a specific class like warrior can be referred to by the
noun warrioreq, so TAKE WARRIOREQ EXCEPT BACKPLATE is a valid command.
You can set the MUD to display your local time by using TIMEOFFSET to set
the number of hours ahead or behind GMT you are.  Display your current
setting by using TIMEOFFSET with no parameters.
SEARCHA (word) will search through all the actions available that contain
the specified word, and list them.
QCOMPARE (player1) (player2) will show quest statistics for both players and
also the MUD record time.
Some mobiles can be hired and commanded.  Type LIST in the Warm Haven to see
a summary of potential hired help.
EF (short for EAT FOOD) will eat food which is carried in containers as well
as that which is carried normally.  DP (short for DRINK POTION) will do the
same for potions.
NOMISS will cut down on combat spam.  CLITE will pare it down to the bone,
only damaging hits to yourself, and the message to show your opponent's death.

beneficial services once each day.  GREET him in his shop for details.
INFO COLOR shows a list of colors available under MXP.
WHOC is a useful command which shows wizard level, mortal level, class, score
and combined wealth.
! repeats the last command given to the MUD.
GCHAT can be abbreviated to [.  Check which channel you're on, and who's on
that channel by using the GCHAT command on its own.  You can change channel
by CHANNEL ME (number between 0 and 9999).
Kneeling at the Temple of Fate can confer a useful extra item.
DIGging holes in locations with soil can unearth gold, items, or (rarely)
disturb burrowing animals.

object(s) in, for example PUT FOOD AWAY.

LOOT ALL when you have a pile of corpses.

They give you the ability to pit and sell things wherever you are
They can also be toggled to different modes by PUSHing them.

not hear or be able to use most communication channels.
The OPTIONS command lists many settings for your character that can be
modified as you wish.
It costs 1 gold per item per day to store your things in the Traveller's
Rest.  This may be reduced by certain achievements.  You can also reduce
costs by using WIPE to get rid of unnecessary clutter.
The new shopping area (backdraft) can be found off Frobozz Street in the
city of Freedom.  There are 32 shops there, all of which have goods and
services to offer.
Fairies often appear near animals that are useful for food.  Their wings are
useful; some of them have magical properties.

north of the jetty.  You will need a small amount of gold; it's a toll bridge.

be accessed for use on the comm channels.  See ENTITIES for a list.

Backdraft can be completed solo, if you concentrate on taking out the pyros
with the BK command.
Two quests may only be completed by the adventurer class, Watercastle and
Hercules.  Both of these need no equipment to start, so you can tackle them
very early in a run!
Several commands have been enhanced to take advantage of MXP (Mud eXtension
Protocol.  Clients that can handle this include MushClient, zMUD, and cMUD.
For metawizards+, the FIND command searches for objects, mobiles, and location
names, and can be used instead of the WHERE command.
When you're mortal and want to see which players are nearby, the WHOZONE
command can be useful.
Want to increase your achievement count? Use a variety of types of weapons
and try different classes.  You can see the results via PROGRESS.
Two achievements add bonus multipliers to the amount offered as a kill
bounty; the number of quests that you do as an assassin, and the number of
bounties you've collected both affect this.
BUTCHER as many animals as possible.  A three tiered achievement increases
the effect of food that you consume.
It is a bad idea to idle in ThePit or ThePitII quests.  As the difficulty
ramps up you will lose health and die unless you're paying attention.
Pay close attention to the minimum level, puzzle and combat ratings given
in QINFO; otherwise you may get your arse handed to you on a plate.
Dying in a deathtrap, while annoying, does contribute towards a three-tiered
achievement which helps keep you safer from deathrooms.
The two seemingly delapidated houses in the Class area both have a purpose
in completing some of the Class quests.
The Darksword and Felldwarf quests both feature creatures armed with
corrosive weapons - it's best to wear lots of armour, and a visit to
Enhancements R us is also a good idea.
Struggling to make a decision?  Use the EBALL command to shake a virtual
eightball for a random (or is it?) outcome.
The Sock of Horus is an invaluable aid when running.  Complete the quest
and reap the reward!
Don't want other players to know when you were last on, or check your profile?
Use the FINGER command with no parameters to toggle this state on and off.
In the Icon quest, you are looking for 24 unique aurastones, which are all
hidden in locations reachable from the main continent.  You can collect these
over several sessions until you have a full set.  The tally item will prove
very useful.
'Secret' classes require a key which is hidden somewhere on the MUD,
generally in an appropriate area.
The items for the class quests are generally confined to the two or three
rooms set aside for their quest.  Exceptions to this are Lich, Viking, and
Pirate.
With the exception of commando, paladin, pirate, thief, and assassin, the
quests related to classes are confined to the area shown on MAP CLASS.
You can customise your prompt to include health, level, score, hourkills,
and more.  See HELP PROMPT.
You can change what people see when they EXAMINE you by using the DESC
Command.  Enter your new description and type ** on a new line to finish.
Spot a spelling error? Use the TYPO command and get it fixed.
There are a selection of maps of 7DOF available to help you navigate.  Use
The MAP command for a list.
COMPARE is a skill open to several classes, but if you're not using one of
them, visit the Assayer's Office off Silver Street in the city of Freedom
Any class can use the COMPARE command whilst there.
If you die in a deathtrap your items will be sent to the second hand shops
in the city of Freedom; they will be distributed according to item type, in
the following shops: Wentworth's Used Artifacts, Maynard's Cut Price Food 'n
Potions, The Pawn Shop, and Philbert's Used Armour.  They remain available
for sale for 15 minutes.
A wizard is entitled to a room, two items of armour, and a weapon.

reward gets higher - by the time it gets to the 30th of the month, it is
worth at least 15000 points.
Some weapons can be sharpened with the right implements.
There are very few instances where zones can't be logically mapped - a
north exit from one room will link to a south exit in the next.
Have a chuckle at our expense: use the HUMOUR command.
Remember to log in at least once per day to collect your 3%% interest on
your current bank balance.
CONVERSE mode allows you to talk specifically to one player, without
having to use tells.  To execute a normal command while in CONVERSE
mode, preceed it with a !, and to exit type **.
The LOOK command has several variants; LOOK IN, LOOK AT, LOOK BEHIND, LOOK
UNDER, and LOOK THROUGH.  They are prevalent in the class quests, but may be
used elsewhere too.
Some locations are only to be accessed by using ENTER and LEAVE.
Struggling with a quest? Perhaps the bard at Warm Haven can help with a
song.  And at a very reasonable price!
Visually impaired players who cannot see colours or use screen readers can
use the SYMBOLS command to make exits, objects, and creatures more
prominent.
The Race quests Demon, Dwarf, Elf, Goblin, Halfling, Human, Lich, Orc, and
Pixie are all confined to the area of MAP CLASS.  With the exception of
Lich, none of these require you to step outside the assigned rooms.
