Tricks and Tips I've picked up during my journey on Project 1999

Mage Chain Summoning

Setup
Obtain this item Torch of Alna by completeing this quest Torch Of Alna Quest.
Obtain the highest level fire pet spell you can for your level. (Fire Pet List)
Make the following macro hotkey:

1. /pause 1, /pet back
2. /pet follow

Combat

1. Summon your fire pet and make sure it damage shields it self before you begin combat.
2. Attack monster with fire pet.
3. When your fire pet begins to get towards low life ~35% or less (you judge what low life is!) Begin summoning a new fire pet and Target the monster you're fighting.
4. Just before you finish summoning your new fire pet. Click Go Away on your current pet. Then click attack for your new fire pet.
5. Once the new fire pet has agro, tap the macro hotkey until your fire pet thinks it is idle and damage shields it self.
6. If the monster still has plenty of life go back to step 3. Otherwise continue to step 7.
7. Does the monster you're fighting flee at low life?
   1. If Yes the monster is fleeing, Use the torch clickie to Relcaim some mana. Or command your pet to Go Away and Then finish the monster a Direct Damage spell.
   2. If No, Begin casting your Direct Damage spell when you know it will kill the monster. Just before you finish casting command your pet to Go Away.
8. repeat

Never use a direct damage spell other than as a finisher or emergency nuke spam
Never use magician pet healing spells. The mana efficiency is terrible.
Remember to carry multiple stacks of malachite.
Ask an Enchanter for Clarity.

Enchanter Tips

Keep a stun loaded.
Use pet guard to position your pet away from you while you're not engaged in combat. That way if it breaks it wont already be in your face punching you to pieces.

200 CHA + 59+ shaman = 255 cha
205 CHA + self buff = 255 cha
>255 CHA buffed is your goal!<

Make sure the mob is tashed and preferably malo'd. Give it -magic resist items.
The lower your charmed pet's magic resist is the better, generally.

Charm the lowest level creature that is capable of doing what you want to do with it.

Shm Canni Tips

Basic stand, canni & sit macro:

1. /pause 1, /stand
2. /pause 14, /cast 1
3. /sit

I recommend using /pause 1, /stand to avoid latency issues.
You can adjust the /pause 14 length +/- 1 or 2 based on your latency.

(Meditate server ticks(6s) + Canni)
Watch your current mana #, when you see it go up click the hotkey for that macro. Repeat until you're good on mana.
I find this very effective if you're not in the heat of the moment and want to catch up on mana quickly.

spam canni:
You will need a clickie such as Spyglass, Kromzek Surveyor Scope or Shrunken Goblin Skull Earring Just to name a few.
Put your clickie on a Hotkey and make sure you are standing.

1. Cast canni
2. Press the Hotkey
3. Wait 1-2 seconds
4. Repeat

Clickie Tip

Have a clickie that can be used from any slot but don't want to waste a bag slot?

1. Open inventory and bag containing Clickie.
2. Left click Clickie
3. Left click Bag
4. Target (enemy/self/etc)
5. Right click Clickie
6. Left click Clickie
7. Left click back in the bag where the Clickie started.

Theories

I think commanding your pet to sit will help it regen health and mana faster.
