New Paladin (and General) questions

[Tyronne]

I've been enjoying my time as a Paladin so far as a newcomer to EQ 2 (level 29 atm), but I have a few questions... (there doesn't seem to be a FAQ on this board, and I don't know if the older posts apply to the current Paladin)<p>1. Are items that do not have the "treasured" label on them, but have stats like a treasured item worth keeping? Will they be made "treasured" later on?</p><p>2. Is there a way to put, for example, multiple taunts into one macro? Or multiple damage skills into one macro? I'm runnin' out of hotkeys!</p><p>3. I often find myself looking at the hotbars to see which skills have finished "cooling down." I feel that it leads to tunnel vision, and I am unable to pay full attention to what's going on my screen.  Is there a mod that gives me some other visual or auditory cue for when my skills finish cooling down?  Or do you have another suggestion?</p><p> 4. Are there any "must do" quests for Paladins on the way to 80 (besides the heritage quests)? </p><p>5. Are there mods I can use to switch out sets of gear? (ie one set for tanking, one set for dps, one set for healing)</p><p>6. Is there a weapon/shield --> 2 hand swap and back macro?</p><p>7. Are there any interface mods you'd recommend?</p><p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<b>1. Are items that do not have the "treasured" label on them, but have stats like a treasured item worth keeping? Will they be made "treasured" later on?</b><blockquote> Answer: I assume you are talking about untagged items all together and not legendary+, so I will say, if it's the best you have access to, keep it, but if you can get better, it's nothing more than vendor loot.</blockquote><p><b>2. Is there a way to put, for example, multiple taunts into one macro? Or multiple damage skills into one macro? I'm runnin' out of hotkeys!</b></p><blockquote> Answer: Not really, I mean, you can "technically" but I find it horribly in-effective for my style of playing, just keep opening up more hotbars.</blockquote><p><b>3.

Or do you have another suggestion?</b></p><blockquote> Answer: that's going to happened no matter what class you play, and no there is no mod that "I" know of that will get you around this, best I can suggest for you is to remember when you cast something and when its back up, or get used to watching it out of your peripheral vision.</blockquote><p><b>4. Are there any "must do" quests for Paladins on the way to 80 (besides the heritage quests)?</b></p><blockquote> Answer: No.</blockquote><p><b>5. Are there mods I can use to switch out sets of gear? (ie one set for tanking, one set for dps, one set for healing)</b></p><blockquote> Answer: No, use the in-game macro system so graciously provided by SoE it works just fine for this, just hit "O" in game and click on the macro tab.</blockquote><p><b>6. Is there a weapon/shield --> 2 hand swap and back macro?</b></p><blockquote> Answer: See Answer #5</blockquote><p><b>7.
