This is an overview of the miscellaneous skills in EUO that neither constitute crafting or count as class skills.

Meditation

Press m to meditate. You will regain HP and mana at an increased rate, depending on your skill, but you will also be blind until you move or are hit. Avoid getting hit when meditating, as you may suffer increased damage.

Fishing & Cartography

Get a fishing rod, and use it in the direction of a body of water. Sometimes you'll drag up an old boot, and rumour has it that these boots are often poison resistant. Other times, you'll drag up a sea monster. Be careful and prepare yourself for a fight when fishing.

Fishing is a great way to catch food for yourself and your pet, as well as being the most consistant method for finding treasure maps - see the section on Cartography and Treasure Hunting.

Item Identification

Buy a magnifying glass and use it on an unidentified item to attempt to ID it. Be sure to do your identification in a safe place where your items will not be stolen. The skill required to ID the item with a magnifying glass is proportional to the quality of the item. As with most other skills, you will need 10 item lore to begin identifying basic items. Using a magnifying glass to ID an item will not detect a curse.

Taming

Taming allows players to tame monsters and animals and use them as allies in combat. Some creatures, like the undead, cannot be tamed and others can grow into something stronger.

Healing

Bandages. In development and currently alpha only.
