    @Anukanaka, you can toggle those description pop-ups on and off with comma (,)

    Sota has so much to offer it can be confusing at first. In your backpack is a little book called Players Guide.
    It will tell you all about the game and how to install and play.
    If you prefer to use a browser to read it, there is a copy here:
    https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z-svq1OvcZwViqGxFCKdjH3NCn2LTfLuGny5qaAqjTM/pub

    The forum is the place to read about Sota announcements, events and bug reports.
    You make a new login for the forum, but you should use the same name as your avatar or other players who
    want to help you out might have trouble finding you in the game.
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php

    Go here for dozens of detailed writeups about Sota and where to find all kinds of resources to help you play.
    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/forum/index.php?threads/help-for-new-and-existing-players.161448/

    There is a wiki https://sotawiki.net/sota/Main_Page and there are hundreds of videos on youtube.

    If you are in the game and have a question, players with the “Hospitaller” title visible on their characters are
    known to be very helpful, but you can also ask questions of anyone in your chat window. Right click on a player in the game to start a chat.

    The Player Guide has a list of Slash Commands that you can issue from your chat window to do a lot of useful things.
    Search in the Player guide document for more on these.
    Some useful ones are:
    /l brings up local chat
    /z brings up zone chat, which reaches a little further distance on the overworld or the whole area in a zone.

    Toggle between chat and playing the game by pressing "enter"

    If you have more questions, I'm Kelly O'Shay in the game. Add me to friends. Press F, enter my name.
    Great to meet you! Have fun playing Sota!

    Thanks for the information provided

    by the way , how i could separate items from stack on my macbook pro

    This doesnt working for me (

    SHIFT + Left-Click allows you to break up stacks of identical items (like arrows or potions).


    CTRL + Left-Click pulls a single item from a stack of items.

    Try holding shift first, then while still holding shift using left mouse to drag the stack. A window should open over the dragging stack to allow you to type in a number to split.

    You can sell almost any junk items you have to a blacksmith or most any npc vendor instead of throwing it away.
    If the value of the item is not zero, a vendor will pay for it. The value is listed in the inventory to the right.

    Lots of us like to go to a graveyard and kill skeletons and save up the swords they drop then sell to a vendor for a quick profit.

    And any humanoid camp will provide a lot of weapons and shields to take to a blacksmith and sell. In hidden vale there are forests
    called Ravenswood and Greymark that have plenty of humanoids to fight and get weapons and sell to the vendors. If you only find
    wolves and bears don't worry, the animal skins and heads can also be sold for a profit to the blacksmith or other vendor.

    Some eager players have even gone around and sold to a ton of vendors and made a chart of the profit.
    I hear that the blacksmith in Desolas named Pip pays top dollar for junk.

    He currently does NOT provide the best price for buying Leather and Cloth armor. Only Heavy Armor.

    Theo in Owl's Head however will pay you the best price for all 3 armor types.
