== Q1: Why is my screen flashing red and blue? ==

This is usually related to hardware acceleration/WebGL.
Try the following troubleshooting steps:

* [http://ccm.net/faq/40585-how-to-enable-webgl-on-google-chrome Enable WebGL]
* [https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Video-Display-and-Touch/How-to-Enable-Graphics-Hardware-Acceleration-in-Google/td-p/1753971 Enable Hardware Acceleration]

If none of these work, try joining the [http://discord.isleward.com Discord] for more detailed support.

== Q2: What/where is the [[Shared Stash]]? ==

The Shared Stash is a container that shares its contents with all characters on an account.
You can find Shared Stashes at the [[Hermit]] and [[Vikar]]'s houses.
Once you are standing next to the stash, press <code>U</code> to access it.

To deposit an item, right click the item in your inventory and choose <code>stash</code>.
To withdraw an item, right click the item in the stash and choose <code>withdraw</code>.

== Q3: How do I show items in the chat? ==

Hold control or command and left-click on an item in your inventory.

== Q4: How do I open [[Cards|card sets]]? ==

Full sets of cards can be exchanged with the [[Shady Dealer]] in the [[Sewer]]s in [[Fjolgard]].

== Q5: How do I fish? ==

Fishing rods can be obtained from the [[Hermit]] or [[Angler Nayla]].
You can fish by finding a section of water with bubbles and pressing <code>G</code>.
Full information on fishing can be found [[Fishing|here]].

== Q6: How do I do more damage? ==

If you are an [[Wizard|owl]] using a [[Weapon|Wand]] or [[Weapon|Gnarled Staff]] you increase damage with [[Stat|Intellect]].
If you are a [[Warrior|bear]] using a [[Weapon|Sword]] or [[Weapon|Axe]] you increase damage with [[Stat|Strength]].
If you are a [[Thief|lynx]] using a [[Weapon|Dagger]] or [[Weapon|Spear]] you increase damage with [[Stat|Dexterity]].

Information for other items like sickles, [[Steelclaw's Bite]], and [[Putrid Shank]] can be found on their own pages or on the [[weapon]]s page.

== Q7: How do I do more damage with runes? ==

See [[:Category:Runes]].

== Q8: What is "level requirement reduction"? ==

This stat reduces the level you need to be to equip an item.
If an item says level 10 and has 3 level requirement reduction, the rest of the item is really level 13 but the required level to use it is 10 (not 7).

== Q9: Why are some monsters strong and glowing? ==

Rare (sometimes called elite) monsters usually have a 2% chance of spawning instead of the normal monster.
Not all monsters have rare variants.
Rare monsters have better stats and can spawn with spells.

== Q10: How do I find better items? ==

There are two stats that boost loot drops: item quality (previously called magic find) and item quantity.
As their names suggest, one increases the chance of finding items while the other one improves the quality.

When looking for good items, you should build item quality and item quantity.
However, item quantity is capped at 200 and item quality is only effective until 286, so don't over-build unless the caps are changed.

Some bosses also have a guaranteed chance of dropping certain quality item.
For example, [[Radulos]] always drops at least 5 [[Quality|magic]] items.
Killing [[M'ogresh]] guarantees two magic items.
Rare mobs are also guaranteed to drop 1 magic item.

== Q11: How do I make better items? ==

See [[Crafting]].

== Q12: What are prophecies? Which do I have? ==

Prophecies are per-character modifiers like permadeath, PvP, taking more damage, and so on.
Prophecies can't be changed after character creation, but automated leagues will eventually be added where everyone has the same prophecies.

Full information can be found [[Prophecy|here]].

You can see your own prophecies on the leaderboard ([https://imgur.com/ItcScBA gif]).

== Q13: How can I help Isleward? ==

Simple ways to help Isleward are coming up with ideas, discussing things in [http://discord.isleward.com Discord], and testing the game on the [[Public Test Realm]].
You can also help by [https://gitlab.com/Isleward/isleward/issues reporting bugs], [https://gitlab.com/Isleward/isleward/files contributing code], making [[mod]]s and [[addon]]s, [[Isleward Wiki:Community Portal|editing the wiki]], or [http://spriteward.herokuapp.com/spriteEditor making sprites].

{{Weapon stats}}

== Special Effects ==

You have an <code>5 - 25</code> % chance when casting [[Magic Missile]] to cast an extra one at another target that is aggressive towards you.

=== Trivia ===
Because special effects are treated as separate from a player cast, a Magic Missile cast from a Corrupted Blossom can damage people who are butchers even though the caster is not a butcher prophecy.

The previous name of this item was "Gaekatlan Offshoot" and it had 100% drop rate.

Stinktooth

DisasmMe: Drop rate according to old source code

{{NPC infobox
| name = Stinktooth
| level = 13
| rank = boss
| aggro = aggresive
}}

'''Stinktooth''' is a level 13 boss [[monster]] found in the [[Fjolgard Sewers]]. He spawns on the highest layer in a large, circular room, and is stronger than the monsters in the surrounding areas. Killing Stinktooth will give 15 [[reputation]] with [[Fjolgard]]. He is hostile to all players. Stinktooth respawns 1714 ticks ''(10 minutes)'' after it is killed.

{{Version 0.11.0}}

__TOC__

== Combat ==
Stinktooth has about 21000 health.

Stinktooth will [[Rune of Charge|charge]] at the first player who steps within its range (the elliptical area).
He then will repeatedly follow up with [[Rune of Whirlwind|whirlwind]] with a radius of 2 for 3 times, or until the target is dead.
While attacking, he will summon 4 rats, a combination of either [[Biter Rat]]s or [[Spitter Rat]]s, one for each corner of the circular area.
These minions will attack the target, and despawn if the target is dead.

== Strategy ==
{{OB}}
* Although level 13, Stinktooth can prove to be tough for the average level 13-16 players. It is recommended to attack in groups to decrease difficulty.
* It's best to stay out of his range, unless there is a level 20 player there, so camp on the steps that lead into this circular area. Players should still be able hit Stinktooth with their ranged spells or a basic attack from any wand or staff, if you are an owl. If not, just charge at Stinktooth and run away.
* Another method, if you are an owl, this will require 2 strong [[Rune of Summon Skeleton|skeletons]] and 1 long-stun [[Rune of Smite|smite]]. Use [[Rune of Smite|smite]] on Stinktooth while your [[Rune of Summon Skeleton|skeletons]] attack, and hide yourself behind a wall to prevent him from charging at you. Stinktooth is now forced to fight your minions because his hostility is focused on his nearest attackers. Then, keep summoning your [[Rune of Summon Skeleton|skeletons]] and keep Stinktooth at bay. This method may take a while, but has a high success rate if done correctly.
* If you manage to get Stinktooth out of his arena and below the steps, you can make his whirlwind accidentaly hits a [[Giant Rat]]. The [[Giant Rat]]s will attack Stinktooth hit. Try it out for yourself! (This is best if you use a ranged weapon, and are very tanky)

These drops can occur in addition to normal loot.
