Technical Terms/Abbreviations, what do they mean?

[Warlord_Lawrence]

I see people using a lot of different abbreviations or terms I don't know (ex: IF, agi which I assume is agility, hoplite, etc...) So is there a list of these? If not, what do they mean?

Well, you have to be more specific which terms you don't understand. Although most are rather easy to understand. IF means Iron flesh, agi means agility, hoplite is the spear/shield combo, cav means cavalry... You'll find out by yourself eventually, most are self-explanatory anyway.

If you don't know something, don't hesitate to ask on the server - you'll just have to figure out the proper answer in between all the trolling

some ones that I can remember off the top of my head:

str = strength
agi = agi
if = ironflesh
ps = powerstrike
pt = power throw
pd = power draw
wpf = weapon proficiency
ath = athletics
LS = longsword
HBS = heavy bastard sword
hoplite = not really an abbreviation but refers to ancient greek soldiers that used spear and shield
respec = respecialization
gen = generation
loom = heirloom
strat = strategus
multi = multiplier
alt = alternate (character, mode)
xbow = crossbow
2h = two handed
1h = one handed
cav = cavalry
cm/mats = construction material
csite = construction site

there's a lot more but like benkei said most are self explanatory and you'll get the hang of them, ask around on the server and a few people will be willing to give actual answers.
