Tip of the week:

----------------

On twitter, someone slipped a little interesting hint. If you type /ABSNBD in the chat window, you enable a little cheat so to speak. It makes your head huge, like a bobble head. Type it again to return to normal.

Information sent in by listeners:

------------------------------

Malik Blazegate shared a tip with us to help you level your combat jobs to level 10. In Blackspore, there is a dungeon at the bottom left corner of the map called, Haunted Mines. It is a level 3 dungeon, but if you go in and fight just the spiders at the beginning of the cave, you'll earn a lot of experience. Once you get beyond the spiders, it gets much harder. At that point, you can exit the dungeon and start over again. This should help you get to level 10 on your jobs fairly quickly. Thanks for the tip, Malik!
