User Interface

Inventory

An illustration of a typical adventurer's backpack.

The Inventory window can be resized however you want. The size of the items can be changed via Options > Gui and Windows > Inventory Item Icon Size.

Using the Sort option can be useful in this game even for those of us who like tidying up things, because the game currently does not allow freely moving and swapping items. The sort option will place all combat gear first (armor and weapons), which can make it easier to switch between weapons (as you have to right click the sword, or staff, etc).

To drop an item click and drag the item towards the bottom of the inventory, a box will appear with the label "Drop Item Here to Throw on Ground". Note that you can pick up the items discarded in this way, however anybody else nearby could do as well!

To split a stack of items left click the item while holding the shift key.

Additional Inventory slots can be obtained by leveling up Endurance, through certain recipes (this appears to be a temporary effect), and sometimes granted by item properties (also temporary).

Quick Tips

(section may move to a new page later)

To fill a water bottle you can either activate a water well (eg. in Serbule) or similar object, but you can also simply stand in a body of water outdoors and right click an empty bottle.

The Chat Window
