Agro: Any mob that is agro will automatically attack you.
Artis: this is short for artifacts. Artifacts are the most powerful weapons in
the game.
Brt: be right there
Block: block is what you do when you have to get pass aggressive creatures and
don�t want to fight them. You can send an elemental or some other pet to tank
them while you run pass but sometimes you sacrifice a member to do it.
Circle: When you are told to circle a certain spell you should cast that spell
once, mem, stand, and repeat. This can be used for healing spells and nuking
spells.
CR (corpse retrieval): When people die in a zone they grab spare sets of books,
get their spells re-prayed or memorized and head back to try and get their
corpses back.
Death mem: This is when you have to re-pray or memorize all of your spells
after a death.
DI: Short for Detect Invisibility, a spell that, well duh, allows you to see
invisible things.
Eq: Short for equipment
F/C: short for follow and consent. When you type follow (person�s name) you
will automatically follow them. By consenting someone you can be admitted into
their group and if you consent and then sleep they can drag you pass golems and
other barriers.
Frag: When you kill an undead or evil who is within 10 levels of your level and
above level 25 you receive a frag. If you kill him by yourself you get 1.0
frag and if you are in a group it is divided. Frag can also just mean to kill
someone. The words origins stem from Vietnam when soldiers would roll
fragmentation grenades into commander�s tents and �frag� them.
Full-out nuke: This is when you throw every attack spell you have at something,
even the kitchen sink.
Hit-lure: this means that if you hit a mob it will follow you till you leave
the zone or die.
Immo-lure: This means you can hit the mob and it won�t chase you. If you want
it to chase you, you need to cast immolation, creeping doom, or any other spell
like it on the mob and then flee out.
Mass rip: This means that while zoning, the entire group was slaughtered by the
creatures in that zone.
Mob: basically a creature of any type. This is not another player.
Newbie: Someone who is new to the game. If it is used to describe someone who
is not new to the game, it is derogatory.
Nuker: Common name for anyone with damage spells. Usually this is a sorcerer
but it can be others.
PK: short for player kill. This is killing any other players that are on your
side.
PSteal: this is stealing from players on your side.
Portable: Druids, Shaman and Psioncist have spells that open portals between
themselves and a target. When someone asks you to get portable, they want you
to go some place that this spell can be used. Home towns are not portable but
the map is almost always portable.
Raidible: covered in help raid
Raid: This is when you purposefully go looking to fight undead or evils. When
someone is raiding they are too busy to help you.
Safely Portable: In order to avoid being detected by evils or undead, people
will ask you to get safely portable. This generally means they want you to run
some place that evils/undead are not likely to look. Most zones are portable
and almost all of them have at least one portable room.
Split: this means you divide up the treasure from a raid or zone and give some
to each group member.
Stone: This commonly refers to the spell Stone Skin. The spell will greatly
reduce the physically damage a person takes. When someone calls for stone,
they would like this spell cast on them.
Tank: Whoever the group wants to be getting hit by the creature the group is
fighting is the tank. Generally the tank is a warrior of some sort since they
have the most hit points and are most suited for the task.
Target: What your group wants to target in a fight.
Twink: This is an insulting label for people that do cruel things. These
people will try to lead you into traps to rob you or they will spy for evils
and undead. Being known as a twink will get your ostracized and Kos (killed on
sight).
Zone: Zones are any areas linked to the maps of Duris. A zone can be a castle,
graveyard, alternative plane of existence, ect. When someone is �zoning� they
are in a zone and probably to busy to talk to help you. Zones are one of the
best ways to find equipment and potions for higher levels.
