----------[Section 1 - Introduction]----------(s1in)
Hello again! It's me, Nghtmr9999. This time, I have written a guide on the Everquest II Lingo you might see in the game.
----------[Section 2 - Lingo]----------(s2lo)
For better searching, terms are in alphabetical order.
Term Meaning ---------- ------------------------------------------------------ AB Antonya Bayle. This is a server name, and one of the most populated servers in the game.
Add People say this when an additional monster attacks the group. Can be deadly if you get too many.
AE(AOE) Area of effect. This refers to spells that don't affect just one target, but many around you.
AF Auto Follow. If you need to go afk and your group is traveling, don't stop. Right click on a groupmate and click follow. Just be sure to say "AF on whoever".
AFK Away from keyboard. You type this when real life takes over. Be sure you say so in groups or you may come back to a dead pissed off group.
Agi Agility. How much armor you can wear, and your avoid.
Agro The monster's "hate". Attacking and healing builds up hate with a monster. When your hate is the highest, you will get attacked by said monster. If you are a fighter, you should always be at the top of the hate list.
Ant Antonica. One of the major zones outside of Qeynos. This is where you will go in your teens.
AQ Armor Quest. These are quests that you complete for some shiny new armor.
BB Blackburrow. An area filled with lots of heroic gnolls.
BRB Be right back. When something happens in real life and you have to leave the game for a minute or two, just let your group know by typing this.
Brt Be right there. Basically if you are invited to a group in a dungeon and you are in Qeynos or Freeport (or where- ever). Type this to let them know you are coming.
BSV Blood Skull Valley. Raid instance in the south Commonlands.
BT BloodTalon. An epic mob in Antonica. If I recall correctly its a group x2.
Btw By the way. Don't know if I can say a lot more.
Buff Magical Enhancements to armor, weapons, etc. Priests have quite a lot. Be sure to use them all in groups.
CH Castleview Hamlet. Starting place for Frogs and High Elfs. A small cozy town in the great city of Qeynos.
CL Commonlands. One of the major zones outside the city of Freeport. This is where you will go in your teens.
CoD Cove of Decay. Another heroic instance. This is off the Thundering Steppes.
Con The color of the monster. Grey, green, blue, white yellow, orange, red.
Conj Conjuror. One of the mage classes in the game. They summon... things.... and...... stuff.
CP Copper Pieces. Think of these as pennies. They don't buy a lot. 100 of them makes a silver.
Cya See ya. When you're about to log off, you might say this to a friend you were talking to or your guild.
Ding Gaining a level. You'll know you've "dinged" when your exp bar goes to 0%, you hear a sound, and you see pretty double-helix things go around your character. In groups you say this when you gain a level, and almost all people will say "grats" "wtg" "gj" etc.
DoF Desert of Flames. The first big expansion pack released. It raised the max level to 60, and added a whole desert to explore.
DoT Damage over time. Some spells do..."23 damage per second for 15 seconds" or "500 damage over 30 seconds"
DPS Damage per second. This is how much damage you can do in the shortest amount of time. If it takes you 15 seconds to take down a white con monster, you have high DPS. If it takes you a minute, you have low DPS.
Drop Items dropped by an enemy when they die. They can be coin or armor or...just....items.
EF East Freeport. A zone in Freeport.
EL Enchanted Lands. Another big zone. Take the bell off the Thundering Steppes or Nek Forest (whichever takes you to the right one)
EXP Experience. The invisible number. When your exp is equal to or greater than exp needed for the next level, you gain a level.
FD Feign Death. A very handy spell. When cast, you "die". Until the area is clear of agro or you get sick of being "dead".
FG Fallen Gate. A zone with lots of undead. Most heroic. Western Commonlands.
FP Freeport. The major city that has numerous smaller parts to it. You go here if you are evil.
Gank On PvP servers, killing somebody who has almost no chance of winning.
GG Good Going. Used as a way of saying congrats on level. Or used sarcastically when someone kills the group.
GM Game Master. The all-powerful people who work at SOE. All hail the mighty GMs!
GP Gold Pieces. Think of these as $100 bills. 100 silver make one of these, and 100 of these makes a platinum.
Gtg Got to go. When you need to leave the game, type gtg. Followed shortly by "cya or bye". Most people will understand. MOST will.
Good to Go. When you are ready for the next monster.
Gusty Gustfeather. An epic x2 in the Thundering Steppes.
GW Guild Wars. A MMORPG (if you could call it that XD). No fee, but I heard it's not fun.
HO Heroic Opportunity. Work together as a team, cast the right spells, and you might cause massive damage, or get a nice buff.
HP Hitpoints. When they reach 0, you die.
HoT Heal over time. Kinda self-explanatory.
Idc I dont care. Again, it explains itself.
Idk I dont know. Explains itself....
Imo In my opinion. When you have an opinion, say <text> IMO
Inc Incoming. Used to let the group know a monster is coming.
Instance This is when your group has an area all to yourself. So groups can't just come in and kill everything.
Int Intelligence. How much mana mages have.
J/k Just Kidding. When you say something, but you were kidding, type this.
KK Okay. Don't think I have to say more.
L8r Later. When you must leave the game for a few hours, be a nice guy. Tell your friends and your guild. They'll say "bye" or "cya" in return.
Lag Slow Connection. When the game isn't completely smooth you have lag my good sir. Check your connection. Then blame it on the server hamster.
LD Linkdead. When someone crashes from the game. Be nice and wait a few minutes for them. Then find a replacement.
LF Looking for. Mainly used when a group needs a certain class.
LFG Looking for group. If you need to do an instance, or you just want exp, type /lfg in the chat box, and type your message in the chat box.
LFM Looking for more. When you just have 2 or 3 and you need more people, just put this in the chat box along with what you are doing.
LFW Looking for work. If you want a crafting job, type /lfw to flag yourself, and people will contact you... soon....
Lmao Laughing my *** off. When something is so funny a "lol" (see below) doesn't do it.
Log Signing on or off.
Lol Laughing out loud. Used when something is funny.
Lvl Level. Your combat/crafting level.
Mana How much blue you have. Same as MP
MP How much blue you have. Same as Mana.
MT Mistell. When you send a message to your guild when you meant to send it as a reply, type MT to the person who recieved your message by accident.
Main Tank. This is the person in the group that decides what will be pulled, takes all the damage, and keeps the enemies off the group.
Named A named monster. Any monster with a proper name. None of the "A small gnoll" or "A two-headed orc" type of thing.
Necro Necromancer. The conjuror's evil counterpart. They summon dead stuff.
Nerf A class losing power due to balance issues. As you can imagine, this annoys people quite a bit.
NBG Need before greed. Basic group manners. If you can't use the item and someone else can and needs it, let them have it.
NF North Freeport. Another zone in Freeport.
NH Nettleville Hovel. A part of Qeynos. Humans and cats start here.
