Here is some more information that some of you probably already know:

1. Pressing Ctrl+Shft+H gets rid of all the interface on your screen so makes for better screenshots.

2. If someone whispers you press the backspace key to automatically have there name in the whisper section of chat.

3. Once you beat EOTN you can easily repeat Destruction Depths by starting at the Central Transfer Chamber and going through the portal you came from instead of starting from Olafstead and running to the battledepths.

4. If an ally targets an enemy press T to instantly target that enemy. Im sure a lot of you know this but I found this out about a year ago and it blew my mind.


Hope these helped

I knew all of these, but I think that's due to being a PvP'er back in the day. I'm kind of shocked that you guys haven't heard jokes about cspacing your way to victory, etc.

Windows Sticky Keys (in Control Panel -> Accessibility Options) + activating sticky left-<ctrl> and left-<alt> = super-smooth H/H-ing! (see names of all foes/allies/items and automatically call your targets for H/H to follow)

Easier method: Hit Shift+Print Screen.

H/H do not take any notice of your called target.

Oh yes they do! Just try H/H'ing the same group twice, once with and once without target calling. You can see most of them switch targets right along with you if you look at their weapon trajectories, and they start casting most of their skills on the new priority target. Or are you saying that it's not working with sticky keys for you, in which case are you sure you've engaged sticky mode?

Heroes and pets require you to specifically target with their interface, otherwise, and hench use their own AI to prioritise targets. None take the slightest notice of your called target.

No, when I'm out H/Hing they target of their own accord *except* when I call my targets. I distinctly note an upswing in damage on my target as soon as I call it.
