Fps may also refer to "Frames per second" i.e. "i lowered my fps to minimize battery consumption" which applies to the battery saver function in al.

Also, what does PUG mean?

WC= Wrong Chat

[tearacan]

STR ---------- Strength (Health)
DEX ---------- Dexterity (Dodge, Critical)
INT ---------- Intelligence (Bonus Damage, Mana, Damage)


str/dex/int applies differently for each class. By the looks of it, you used a mage to come up with this.
Mostly 2 out of 3 increase hp, but not equally same
bonus dmg only applies to primary stat.

[Schnitzel]

Nice job on this thread, Rui
btw, add:
PvE = Player vs. Environment
TDM = Team Death Match


off topic,
O_o we have similar names

I see. Thanks for the clarification and yes, I'm a mage :)
But I do not get what you mean by "mostly 2 out of 3 increase hp, but not equally same". pls further elaborate?

[Madnex]

I see. Thanks for the clarification and yes, I'm a mage :)

If you're a rogue:
1 DEX = 3 HP
1 INT = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

If you're mage:
1 INT = 3 HP
1 DEX = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

If you're warrior:
1 STR = 10 HP
1 INT = 3 HP
1 DEX = 3 HP

[Remiem]

Thanks for this great guide. Stickied. :D

[toxorto]

If you're a rogue:
1 DEX = 3 HP
1 INT = 5 HP
1 STR = 10 HP

Specifically for rogue :
1 dex = 3hp /0.4 dmg / 0.02 critical/ 0.04dps

1 int = 10 mana /5 hp

1 str = 10 hp

[radagan]

[SacredKnight]

[Killfreeak]

[eugene9707]

[Excuses]

That "j" or "jjjj" or however many j's people use is probably my biggest pet peeve in the game. How hard is it to type the word? People are too dam lazy.

People type j only because they are in the middle fight or to make it faster(before other team block the spot).
That 4 letters takes long time sometimes. :p

[Excuses]

Ok, I will add them, except for the skills though, I don't think they are official ones, are they?

Actually you don't have to add anything. Haha
I just wanted to write those because it took me long time to figure what people meant in guildchat and forum. :)

[Rui]

Ok guys, some of the new abbreviations are getting a bit off topic (i.e. ppl) and some are meaning OBVIOUSLY the same thing (i.e. 1v1, PvP) and most of them are obvious and are almost not abbreviations but just a shorter way of saying something (i.e. Cu)so I'm not going to update this thread very much until I really see something that is useful and not obvious (i.e. HoT=Heal over Time).

BUT, I will be adding any legitimate ABBREVIATIONS of Arcane Legends (i.e. no such thing as HM=How Much, because these are short forms that some players create among themselves and each player has a different meaning for their own short forms) into the thread (i.e. KM=Kraken Mine). Note that I will not be adding anymore type commands. (i.e. j=join)

[Higuani]

[drdoombot]

[Ivengeance]

[alongcay]

What is "NPC"?

[Artoholics]

Non player character

[Dragoonclaws]

maybe considering adding these:

AP - Achievement points
STG - Spacetime Games
H/s - Health (regeneration) per second
M/s - Mana (regeneration) per second
Hp - Health point
Mp - Mana point
PT - Planar Tomb (PT1,PT2,PT3)
leet or 1337 - Elite

[Dragoonclaws]

what does "scaled" mean?

scaled means ''adjusted to [reference here]''

Ex: We say that Watcher's tomb are scaled to the highest level player present in the map. It basically means that the difficulty level of the monsters in that tomb will be adjusted to the level of the highest leveled player in the map.

btw this thread is about Abbreviations, please check dictionary for normal words xP

[Cheackezig]

I notice I haven't been into touch too much with all the abbreviations lately so I had to learn a lot XD, really cool post idea.
Gotta be careful tho, Aa could stand for both "Arcane Ability" but also has been used to refer to "Arcane Artifact".

Also some more abbreviations I hear a lot:
Irl --> In Real Life
Tc --> Take Care
Gl --> Both Good Luck and Gold Loot
Ms --> Movement Speed
Cya --> See you later
Ed --> Elite damage
Bd --> Boss damage

Maybe these are useful for fake or real boomers like me lmao
