Stuff you should already know about SRO
Posted: Sat Jun 02, 2007 6:38 am
I've found some of my friends, after months of playing, still didn't know certain basic things about the game 
So I figured I'd post some interesting tricks and stuff here. I just know I'm not gonna get ppl admitting that they didn't know anything here so just don't be a dumbass and post "I already knew all that, you're dumb!"
0. IF YOU HOLD THE CTRL KEY AND CLICK ON AN NPC'S ITEM IN A STORE, YOU BUY A MAXED OUT PILE OF IT WITH ABSOLUTELY NO CONFIRMATION! be very very very careful! I have the 5000 destryoer rondos for 2 mil to prove it (though it's all good cuz I use about 5000 every week)
1. if someone's spamming you, go into the game options and disable whispering. They'll get all confused. Also u can disable other stuff like party invites.
2. turn shadows completely off, 99% of computer can't render them without lagging, even ones with 8 series Nvidia cards
3. Vital spot can be used against someone by holding alt without turning pink, which is a great way to kill bots
4. you can move around and run in circles like a crazy person using the arrow keys
and apparently press enter to keep running straight
5. you can get hit by a nuke for any amount of damage and not die with any fire wall skill on at any lvl. Ice wall can stop even giants from damaging you AT ALL.
6. parry ratio actually lowers damage you take and attack rating actually increases it. BR on weapons and in the spear spinning skill prevent your attacks from being blocked by a shield. Crit on shields prevent U from getting critically hit
7. fire pure int bowmen train the fastest out of any type of character
8. if you press e you can join global parties or register yours as a global party. Also, they're more than 1 page to it (just learned that multi-page thing yesterday lol)
9. guild store items are tradeable
10. lucky tablets existed at one time (shut up, disagreers, I saw one and so did several ppl)
11. you can go past the bounds of your stall by putting all @'s in the "stall manager's remarks" area
12. There's two secret ways to sneak out of DW: by climbing the mountain on the north side of the east gate, and by squeezing through between the wall and mountain directly south of the west gate
See this video for details:

13. you can use the targetting healing and curing spells on yourself
14. Joymax is owned by Yahoo Korea, which also owns a company that made Maplesoft, a nearly identical 2D game that's still around
15. there's a huuuuuuuge deer head on top of the potion shop in DW
16. using any elemental imbue increases the damage of nukes, not just weapon hits. Using the lightning one with the lightning nuke can supposedly hit 9 targerts at one.
17. you can auto-pot by pressing T and slide the sliders to any way you want. You can also only use MP pots and set the HP quickslot to use on a quickslot with self heal (but then ppl think you're a bot)
18. The GMs hate everyone
19. you can always stop the logout countdown by pressing the esc key
20. you can re-equip a job item before the 10 minutes is up by using a return scroll, or any other teleport
21. if one wolf is dead, you can summon another one
22. if you hold z, you can view the names all items on the ground around you
23. If you hover over a party member on the map, it says who they are.
24. if a guild war is tied, it will go to sudden death without notifying you. First kill of anyone in the other guild of any level wins
25. I think this was only recently added in an update but if someone's too far away for you to see their name, you can mouse over them and their name will appear.
26. the game can only run for so long before it freezes because of a memory programming problem, but if you put the cursor in the text area and alt-tab to another program, it stops the game from rendering graphics and slows down the problem significantly.
27. you can put a skill on the "M" quickslot to the left of spot one and access it from any of the 4 bars by clicking the middle wheel in. I learned that one after about 8 months
28. you can whisper back to someone by clicking on what they said in the chat window
Well hopefully some of you who have been playing forever and not knows some of that now know it. I bet at least half the ppl reading here didn't know #1 and #4 and #12. Oh and I'll add more as I think of them cuz I know I had more in mind but I can't remember
