I would like to know that too.  currently it is go to the nearest attackable monster and try to attack it.  It would be useful to know if we have a chance to attack monsters.
Probably should say something more useful here.  How about show status in the game.  Incase it goes up when you are playing

This is probably a stupid question, but I am new (not to use it as an escuse but) how do I use the help chat?  I am not sure how to use it or where it is
The sever is down last time I checked, so the npc server is down too.  I think it would be down when the main server is, that would make sense.

well. yes and no. the basic server softwares are simpler compared with getting a decent npc interaction.

having a separte piece of software, it makes it simpler to do things with the npcs, add remove, tweak, etc. then having to work with the server itself. and if you manage to crash a npc, it means you don\'t crash the whole game. and a whole bunch of other things that i can\'t think of right now.

a dev will probably correct me if i\'m wrong. but, it feels like a correct answer.

There is a separate tab in your chat window that says \"Help.\" I believe it\'s the very last one :) Clicking on it and typing a question will notify advisors that someone is looking for help, and you will get an answer ASAP.
