Thank you for this guide. I'm actually new to MMOs. I've been doing pretty well learning a lot of this stuff on my own so far, but this is still a great guide with a lot of good info. For instance, I had no idea that overhealing could pull aggro from the tank. I was actually going through Halitali the other day and kept noticing that I was being targeted more often than the tank. Although, I think that was also partly the tank's fault, because one of the DPS was being targeted more often as well.


Also, about using the controller, I play on the PC but prefer using a gamepad. I played the beta on PS3 and loved using the controller. That probably also has to do with me being more used to console gaming than PC gaming. Don't forget that you have far more than just the one set of two hotbars (L2/R2). You actually have eight (for a total of 16 hotbars). Press and hold RB, and you'll see a diagram pop up that shows the D-pad arrows and your face buttons. While holding RB, press one of the other corresponding buttons, and it will bring up an empty set of hotbars. Once you've assigned something to those, then just quickly pressing RB will switch between your different sets. Right now, since I'm still fairly low leveled, I have my skills on one set and then stuff like potions, ethers, emotes (for those specific levequests) on another.
