how do I enable text on my HP/MP/DP bars

Options -> Game Options -> Display Number on Status Bar

As a chanter, what stats am I looking to focus on? I'm a bit confused so far because you start out more of a caster and then morph into a melee.

Is there any stats that increase the buffs I give? Does magic boost add to healing spells?

My best guess is to focus on phys crit, phys att and mp?

There's no stats to help buffs or cure potency so yes on crit/att but you shouldn't need MP, make that one HP.

Before 50, I am personally focusing on nothing but phys crit to help grinding until 50, or until I hit the soft crit cap. At 50, I have the plan for solo pvp gear of socketing until crit cap, and then putting magic resist in any open slots after that. I am going to have a separate set of gear, along with a mace and shield, all socketed with defensive manastones and what combo of them, I am not sure what I'm going to do yet.

Of course this is all in the air at the moment though, because I don't really know how I'm going to play Chanter at 50 I'll figure that out at that time.

As a sorcerer, when do I start getting access to more magic accuracy outside of switching to tome? I have a couple of pieces, two rings and a belt, and food, but at 22 I was getting a good 60% resist rate with tome on 27-28 mobs (we were trioing) and that's just not acceptable. I know there are magic accuracy manastoness later, but we're leveling kind of slow.

Unless you're going with a giant army, I've found a lot of the spy quests nearly impossible to do unless you're like... maybe doing them at off-peak times. Even then it's a gamble.

It depends on where you get dumped by the rift and where you're going. I was able to solo Ingredients for Kselopen Sausage because all I had to do was run past some bots to that gigantic desert that makes up like half of Eltnen. Place is so empty, the only Elyos I saw were Flight Transporting over my head.

I duo'd the first 3 Elyos spy quests at lvl 34, and I could probably do it again. I might elaborate sometime if it's helpful.

I was level 22 when I tried doing my first one. The rift kinda spit us out far from where we needed to get in Morhiem. And every couple of feet we'd see em comin towards us.

[Lebzile]

I did 2 of them at 26 on my Templar, had a small group of 26-28s and we kind of rolled through a bunch of Asmos before they finally got a zerg of 15+ against us to take us down rofl. We went through the portal that puts you right outside Morheim Fort

You could get into a rift, and then find somewhere real safe and just log until there isnt a rift up, so they dont see a message and are actually out looking. Also an Elyos Kisk would probably help a bit if you had any failed attempts.

Would you guys say you make a profit on your investment into crafting? I have about 700k but I am wondering if I should drop it into crafting or save it for buying my 3mil stigma.

[Anakron]

Has anybody tried a macro like the following?

/Skill <skill1>
/Skill <skill2>
/Skill <skill3>

to basically do if 1 not available, use 2, if neither, then 3, etc.? I tried it, but keep getting the skill-on-cooldown message.

For now, I'm gonna say I've put in more than I've gotten back. I don't know if people on my server are just frugal fucks or what, but crapping out consumables like potions or mana stones at maybe 15% over material cost hasn't exactly turned into quick sales. I've not been able to sell a single orb I've made, either.

[arus2001]

From what I've heard, a macro stops if a skill is on cooldown. Dunno for sure since I've yet to make any.

[OzzofAsura]

Is there a way to go from bottom Abyss to middle, middle to top etc. without the teleporter? Trying to get to a Kyuninininnerknerk shugo npc that is sitting next to a Balaur fortress and the next 4 fortresses are theirs too.

Edit: Bought a few potions and flew straight up.

[Hitoshura]

Yep, I fucking nearly shit myself when I was out there by myself flying towards a fucked up looking 3D model which was the Eastern part of the bottom layer, thankfully I had some badass Wind Serums so I barely made it all the way, it's better to just fucking teleport.

Not to mention the idiots in this economy undercutting you by about 30% of item cost, yay for retards that ruin the economy. Lol

Tailoring 199 here and thinking about just stopping really, I go on a craft spree and make about 10 jerkins, 1 blues, put it up for 150k which is same price as the current listed one, and the other 9 greens for 25k which is slight profit for me, come back the next day and bam, some douchebag decide to put 9 more greens up for about 15k.

[Corwen]

I've made a lot from crafting, only to piss it all away attempting my expert rank quest. 0/7, -24 mil and counting lol.

[Drex]

How do you get the hp and mp values to display on the bars? Mine just show up as bars

[Lebzile]

There's an option under "Game Options" I think it is "Display Text on Bars" or something like that, should be in the same section where you show your HP bar and the like.

[Ququroon]

I've seen several screenshots where the HP bar is removed from the lower HUD, any clue on how to do this?
