1. I keep seeing people using the phrase "NPC it" in the forums...is that referring to just buying a base item from the NPC, or is there some technique I'm unfamiliar with?

NPC = Non-playable character. Such as the blacksmith. If people are saying things like, "I'm in npc gear." means they're in the weakest possible gear for whatever level of gear they're wearing.

2. What is the difference between Universal pills and Special universal pills? I have 4 racks of Specials when I go to the forgotten world, but they just get used up without actually healing anything. Any pills for bleed and dull and all those? It's really annoying when I'm tanking the final boss solo as a wizz

Uni pills don't cure debuffs, the only cure status effects. Such as fire's burn, ice's freeze/frost bite, etc.

I do believe there are some special pills you can buy to help cure warlock statuses, I just forget the name.

3. Off topic, wth does 1337 mean? Probably get joked for not knowing this, but I don't care.
1337 = Leet. As in pro. As in me.

I know there were more questions, but I can't think of em right now. Thanks for the help!

Right, I just just saw the phrase like "I would NPC that weapon", and they were referring to some bug where u sell and buy back from an NPC to get some better luck or something. Didn't know if that's what it was referring to.

Good to know. It's annoying that they still autopot, even though they don't do anything.

it doesn't give better luck when Npc then bought back , Npc can also mean that you sell your ( drops , tablets , stones ,alvhemy materials , etc ) like you say : i Npc Tablets
