## Chat Window

This is the area where you can see messages from other users, and send messages yourself. You can also use slash commands here. To begin typing, press enter. A cursor will appear, indicating that you are now able to type. Press enter again to send your message or to submit the slash command. If you click out anywhere on the UI outside of the text entry box, you will become unable to continue typing. Press enter again to resume typing.

## Username

This is where your character's name will be displayed. Some people will have coloured names; they are either staff or volunteers, so be nice and say hello to them. You can learn more about what each of the colours mean here.

## Character Model

Your character model will display all of the items you currently have equipped. It will always remain in the center of the screen, no matter which way you run, jump, fall, or move the camera.

## Player Stats

This button will open up the stats pane, as seen to the right. This pane displays your current stats. If your stats change, such as through equipping different gear or by receiving a buff such as the Mage's Mana Shield, the change will not automatically update the pane. You must re-open the pane to see the changes.

To learn more about each stat, see the Game Mechanics page.

## Health/Mana and Exp

The health bar is red, and the mana bar is blue, and the EXP bar is yellow. Each display the current

percentage of available health/mana/EXP.

## Use Items

This buttom brings up a side window that allows a player to quickly access their consumable items. There is no confirmation dialogue, so as soon as you click on an item, it is consumed. It does this so people can use items quickly in combat.

## Skills

Each class has its own selection of skills. All classes have an autoattack. The icon for each class skill will show a black timer while it is on cooldown; there is also a short global cooldown that affects all class skills after one has been used.

Autoattack is toggleable, and will slowly flash when toggled on. When toggled off, its colour will remain constant.

## Jump

Press space to jump. You can jump while moving, and even slightly maneuver while in the air. There are currently two jump animations, and which one is displayed is random.

## Target

Targeting enemies will highlight a nearby foe in front of you so that you are able to attack them with targeted (non-AOE) skills. Repeatedly pressing target will scroll through the valid foes. Targeting will acquire a foe that is in front of your camera's facing, not the character's. Currently, pressing target will allow you to select foes that are outside of the range of clicking with the mouse to select them.

Pressing a skill button will automatically target the nearest foe, even if you do not have anything selected. This can cause your character to run towards the foe if you're using a melee skill or autoattack.

## Joystick

Lets the player move around (only for mobile).
