Aliases

Aliases are essentially shortcuts that you can type into the command. Each alias can have up to 4 commands (3 semicolons). When the alias shortcut is a single key, simply pressing that key will invoke the command.

Note that aliases are different from the button-bar in that the button bar has visual shortcuts (buttons), whereas aliases are text-bindings.

Healing and Recovery

This is a broad overview of healing and recovering from damage to survive in the wonderful (and dangerous) world of Wyvern.

In Wyvern, when your HP drops to 0, you die. Death above level 5 results in lost experience points. The goal of this guide is to keep your HP above 0, to live long and prosper! There are 4 main methods to keep your character alive.

  • Healing skill
  • Spell healing
  • Rod healing
  • Mana shield

Bungling

If you're wearing a lot of armor that causes bungling, or under the effects of some spells, your chance of botching the spell increases. The more armor you have on that can cause bungling, the higher your chance of bungling the spell. Some special kinds of armor allow you to cast spells without penalty.

Bungling the spell still charges you the spell points for the spell.
