writte soemthing in the texedit like "#me is a 3 feet tall halfling" and then press strg/crtl+f2, you can save other things there aswell, e.g. something your chars says quiete often "may bragons flame shine bright for you" or some kind of spell or whatever, I think yyou can use f2-f7.

you can store text on the keys F2-F6, twice on each.

Just write the text you want in your chatbox, but don´t send it. Then press e.g. ctrl+F2 to store this text on F2. From now on when you press F2 this text will appear in your chatbox again.

you can also store it with ctrl+shift+F2, but then you have to press shift+F2 to restore it.

for those, who play in both languages:

i save the german #me with ctrl+F2-6, the english translations with ctrl+shift+F2-6.

F2 - descriptions
F4 - greeting
F3 - often used phrases of that char
F6 - specials

so i do not have to remember different settings for every char.

Well, low Willpower means he wont learn that quickly

High perception will help for critical hits.

So i'd reduce perception a tiny bit, and put it into somethign more useful.

Still, he'd make a good fighter

Isn't it intelligence that affects learning rate? Willpower is a magical stat, not a learning one as far as I know

Yes, but Smithing and Goldsmithing 'work' differently.

No, all things you can smith show up. But with goldsmithing you must use the copper/gold bar in order to goldsmith, not the hammer. And I don't know about the exp.

Right.

I would make something you commonly find next to 'plates' during dinner. It helps much better.

No.

Gold is for selling, not for training.

Doing otherwise = phailing @ Goldsmithing

Make the best you can as long as you can, and then get to cutlery. What God would smith if he was a gold smith.

What do you mean by 'make the best you can for as long as you can'?

So i will still get exp from cutlery? I thought plates were my most recent item so i thought once i was done getting exp for them i couldnt get exp for anything ellse made of copper and i would have to train with gold to get better. i have already wasted 40 gold if i did this the wrong way....

okay but still plates are the most recent item before it starts to make gold, so that means that only gold will give me exp now right?
