Alright guys. First up, i'd like to say that I'm using some of these terms that may have been brought over from WoW. But I believe long time gamers of MMORPGs or RPGs in general would be familiar with them. For the newcomers, well, here's a little guide that I thought I'd share with you.

I need someone to help me edit to make it visually more appealing and easy to read. As well as input from other people to help make this way better than what it is now.

DE (Disenchant)/Salvage - This refers to the act of salvaging the magic items you find from your adventures at the blacksmith!

BS - Blacksmith!

JC - Jewelcrafter

Gem/gemming - the act of putting jewels into your sockets/slots

Stack/stacking - the act of selecting gear with a particular stat. E.g. Stack Vitality means using gear with high vitality, gemming vitality gems etc.

FF(Focus fire) - everyone targeting a single target to focus it down

CC(Crowd control) - stuns/freeze/knockback and what ever other spell there is

AH(Auction House) - duh. and it's brother RMAH (real money AH)

MF - no not motherfu... MAGIC FIND!!!! Side note, if i'm not wrong party magic find is averaged out (can someone find a source for this?)

MH/OH - Main hand / off-hand

Stat stick - refers to your OH item which gives a huge stat boost or benefit.

TP/port - town portal, or teleport

Mules - Characters that you use for their storage/backpack space (Side note: Stash space is shared across all characters as well as gold. The AH has 10 item spaces when you auction items. Failed auctions or items you bought from AH are kept in another space separate from everything else. There are 50 of those slots as well, sums of gold from successful auctions count as 1 spot too.)

Mobs - anything that attacks you that is not a boss. lol... alternatively, some people call them creeps (i think nirvana did =P).

DPS/HPS - Damage Per Second / Heals Per Second

Thanks! I remember when you guys kept saying disenchant, since I don't play WoW I didn't know the term and was too embarrassed to ask either. So i was looking at the jeweler artisan wondering where you could disenchant stuff. I thought you could break down items into jewels or something lol! (even tho thats more like disgem)

Also MF for "Magic Find" the buff that increases the chance to find rare items

TP for "Town Portal" tehehe

It isn't disenchanting according to me, it's "reverse engineering" !!
