Tom: Hey there, Player. I'm Tom the tanner. If you have fresh corpses, leather, paws or other animal body parts, trade with me.
Player: academy
Tom: Those people in the academy have no idea what's going on in the real world. Books are not everything.

Player: Al Dee
Tom: He's an apple polisher.
Player: Amber
Tom: Now that's an interesting woman.

Player: backpack / rope / shovel
Tom: Nope, sorry, don't sell that. Go see Al Dee or Lee'Delle.
Player: bank

Tom: I don't fish.

Player: how are you
Tom: Much to do these days.
Player: human
Tom: Are you crazy?!
Player: hyacinth
Tom: I wonder if he's angry because his potion monopoly fell.
Player: info

Player: king
Tom: Bah, the king. I'm my own king.
Player: Lee'Delle
Tom: Her nose is a little high in the air, I think. She never shakes my hand.

Player: Paulie
Tom: Typical pencil pusher.
Player: potion
Tom: Go to Lily for that.

Tom: This island has its own problems, but all in all it's a decent place to live.
Player: Santiago
Tom: I don't have a problem with him.
Player: sewer
Tom: The nearest sewer entrance is just to the right of this building.
Player: Seymour
Tom: He sticks his nose too much in books.
Player: tanner

Player: Zerbrus
Tom: He's okay.
Player: Zirella
Tom: My mother?? Did you meet my mother??
Player: yes
Tom: Bah, I guess everyone's telling you horror stories about what a bad son I am. Everyone's judging me although they have no idea what really happened.
Player: hint
Tom: 'Capacity' restricts the amount of things you can carry with you. It raises with each level.
Player: hint
Tom: Always have a look on your health bar. If you see that you do not regenerate health points anymore, eat something.
Player: hint
Tom: Always eat as much food as possible. This way, you'll regenerate health points for a longer period of time.
Player: hint
Tom: After you have killed a monster, you have 10 seconds in which the corpse is not moveable and no one else but you can loot it.
Player: hint
Tom: Be careful when you approach three or more monsters because you only can block the attacks of two. In such a situation even a few rats can do severe damage or even kill you.
Player: hint
Tom: There are many ways to gather food. Many creatures drop food but you can also pick blueberries or bake your own bread. If you have a fishing rod and worms in your inventory, you can also try to catch a fish.
Player: hint
Tom: Baking bread is rather complex. First of all you need a scythe to harvest wheat. Then you use the wheat with a millstone to get flour. ...
Tom: This can be be used on water to get dough, which can be used on an oven to bake bread. Use milk instead of water to get cake dough.
Player: hint
Tom: Dying hurts! Better run away than risk your life. You are going to lose experience and skill points when you die.
Player: hint
Tom: When you switch to 'Offensive Fighting', you deal out more damage but you also get hurt more easily.
Player: hint
Tom: When you are on low health and need to run away from a monster, switch to 'Defensive Fighting' and the monster will hit you less severely.
Player: hint
Tom: Many creatures try to run away from you. Select 'Chase Opponent' to follow them.
Player: hint
Tom: The deeper you enter a dungeon, the more dangerous it will be. Approach every dungeon with utmost care or an unexpected creature might kill you. This will result in losing experience and skill points.
Player: hint
Tom: Due to the perspective, some objects in Tibia are not located at the spot they seem to appear (ladders, windows, lamps). Try clicking on the floor tile the object would lie on.
Player: hint
Tom: If you want to trade an item with another player, right-click on the item and select 'Trade with ...', then click on the player with whom you want to trade.
Player: hint
Tom: Stairs, ladders and dungeon entrances are marked as yellow dots on the automap.
Player: hint
Tom: You can get food by killing animals or monsters. You can also pick blueberries or bake your own bread. If you are too lazy or own too much money, you can also buy food.
Player: hint
Tom: Quest containers can be recognised easily. They don't open up regularly but display a message 'You have found ....'. They can only be opened once.
Player: hint
Tom: Better run away than risk to die. You'll lose experience and skill points each time you die.
Player: hint

Player: hint
