== C == {{Imagebox|image=CatShop.jpg|iwidth=100px|balign=right|text='''[[Consignment Shop|A catshop.]]'''|talign=center}} * '''C/O''' - Current Offer, the current price in a player "auction", normally done in World Chat. If nobody offers more, then the person who made that offer will get the item(s) at that price. * '''Camping''' - The act of waiting in an area to hunt a specific thing that tends to appear there. * '''Carebear''' - A somewhat derisive term for a player that prefers to help other players attack monsters rather than attack other players in player vs. player combat. * '''Caster''' - A character that stays on the back row to heal or cast spells on the enemy, such as a [[wizard]]. * '''Catshop''' - The shops set up by players to sell items, usually in the form of a cat standing on its tail, also sometimes as a cow on a treasure chest ("cowshops"), a mermaid, or a lighter. See [[Consignment Shop]] for details. * '''CD''' - Cooldown, the time between when you use a skill or potion and the time when you can use it again. The icons for skills and pots in cooldown show a darkened pie-wedge that gets smaller as the cooldown ends. * '''Channeling''' - Most skills have a "Channeling" time and a "Cast" time, which total up to the time it takes to use the skill. Skills can be interrupted during Channeling, but not during Casting. There are potions and gear bonuses which can reduce your Channeling time, but only a few gear bonuses can reduce your Cast time. Bosses often have a glow appear around their feet when they are Channeling, so if you have a skill that can cancel other skills, that glow indicates a good time to try canceling that attack. * '''Char''' - Your character. If used in the form "10char" it means "10 characters", used to get past the old 10 character minimum for forum posts. * '''Cheese''' - To exploit an imbalance in the game. * '''Chi''' - The yellow bar that's below your health and mana gauge, allows you to use certain skills. * '''CN''' - China or Chinese, from the two letter country code. * '''Clr''' - [[Cleric]]. * '''Co-ords''' - Coordinates, the two groups of three digits visible in the top right corner near the minimap, used to pinpoint any location on the world map. * '''CoA''' - [[City of Abominations]], a weekly level 50+ event. * '''CoF''' - The [[Cube of Fate]], a level 40+ "game" of skill, wits, and chance, that also acts as a free shortcut to Archosaur via. any [[Adventure Assistant or Khatru Pup]] NPC. More commonly abbreviated to "Cube". * '''CON''' - Constitution, an old name for the Vitality stat. * '''CQ''' - Cultivation Quest(s), the Spiritual Cultivation quests you get every ten levels or so that give you the ability to learn new skills and the like. See [[Quests]]. * '''Crit''' - Critical hit, a hit which does your Rage Damage, normally 200% damage. It may also refer to your critical hit rate. * '''Critical Hit Rate''' - One of your stats that shows the percentage chance of making a "Critical Hit" or "crit" on a target for damage when a strike is implemented. A crit does your Rage Damage, normally 200% of your normal damage. * '''CS''' - [[Crazy Stone]], a daily quest that begins at level 30. May also mean [[Cash Shop]], a.k.a. the Boutique, or possibly Customer Service, i.e. the tech support branch at PWE. * '''CTD''' - Call to Duty, the level 19, 29, 39, etc. FB quests. Also the Tabs for those quests. See [[Call to Duty]] for details. (Also 'Crash to Desktop', though 'DC' is a much more common phrase here.) * '''Cube''' - The [[Cube of Fate]], a level 40+ "game" of skill, wits, and chance, that also acts as a free shortcut to Archosaur via. any Khatru Pup or Adventure Assistant NPC. Sometimes seen in verb form, i.e. "I'm Cubing to Arch now." * '''Culti''' - Short for 'Spiritual Cultivation'; referring to both your characters cultivation level (which unlocks various skills) and the quest chains to get there. * '''CV''' - Crescent Valley, an old name for Lunar Glade.
