I know...this is a total Newby question, but I could not find the answer in Guru, the Wiki, or the game manual.

I know that F1, F2, F3, and F4 are assigned as weapon slots...but I don't know how to equip those slots with weapons etc.

The reason I ask, is that I plan to play an A/R character and figure that I may need to change b/t bow and dagger.

I appreciate any genuine answers.

Thanks and good fortune.

First activate the weapon slots. Press I to bring up your inventory with armor and weapons. Then there is a "weapon sets" button. Click that, then check the box in front of the slot. Then you press f1 equip a weapon, then press f2 the equip a weapon. etc.,etc...

1. Open your Inventory ("I" is the shortcut)

^^I forgot to mention that part^^

2. Hit "F1" to select that weapon slot

3. "drag and drop" a weapon to your character or double click the weapon to equip it.

4. Hit "F2" to select that weapon slot

5. Repeat step 3 with your next set of weapons

6. Repeat steps 2-3 for "F3" and "F4"

7. While fighting, hit your F Keys to toggle through your assigned weapon sets.

Hope that helps!

You'll also notice little icons in the bottom right corner of your screen which displays your currently equiped weapon and the ones assigned to each set (so you can easily keep track of them and can drag weapons dirrectly onto those icons to change them around).

It should be mentioned that if you hit one of the F keys and then another skill, you won't switch weapons. You have to wait for the weapon to switch before you use another skill or anything. You can keep attacking, but just... don't use another skill until you switch.
