• In Ghostlands, there is a wild warrior who is a master of camouflage.

• A piece of map in Drefia at the level that leads you to the Medusa Shield Quest makes the figure of a pentagram.
• Also, there is a room in Demona that has walls that look like a pentagram in the map.

Bone references Edit

• There was a bug shortly after the update that introduced the city of Liberty Bay that you could start Sam's Old Backpack Quest with the weapons shopkeeper there, Cedrik! This was because CIP copied Sam's script for Cedrik, and forgot to remove that quest marker.
• Hugo is a recurring name throughout Tibia. First, there is the actual NPC, Hugo Chief, who owns a clothing store in Venore. Second, there is the old legend about the demonbunny named Hugo, which is a part of the Paradox Tower Quest. Third, the NPC Todd in Thais calls himself "Hugo" when asking about his name.

• One gold coin is 0.1 oz, or 10 grams. With the present worth of gold, one GP is about 330€, 450US$ or 280£. On unrelated note, the same amount of platinum "only" costs about 470€/640$/400£.

Frozen Starlight Edit

• The star hanging on the Elven Amulet, looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.
• The old shot effect of the Wand of Vortex looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.
• The eye of a Pharaohs looks the same as the Frozen Starlight.

Shields Edit

• The crown on the Castle Shield appears to be the same as the one on the Purple Tome.
  

• The face on the Medusa Shield is the same as the one in the Stone Skin Amulet. This may be because of the legend that the snake-headed Medusa could turn you to stone with her gaze.

• When a piece of armor is put on the the floor next to a character it appears that the armor is way too big to fit on the character

Weapons Edit

• The Dragonbone Staff is a kind of enchanted like weapon but it does not hit like an enchanted weapon.

• There was a short period directly after Update 8.0 when Hunting Spears already changed into stackable Distance Weapons and were dropped by Lizard Sentinels in large ammounts (up to eight of them at once!). In this period you could sell them to Brengus in Port Hope for the old price of 250 gold and make a lot of money while hunting Lizard Sentinels.

• , , , ,
• , ,

Male and Female sets Edit

• The Crown Set is a very common set for medium level players. It includes Crown Helmet , Armor, Shield and Legs. The female version of this set (without legs) is called Amazon Set with identical stats, although very hard to obtain. This set includes Amazon Helmet, Armor and Shield.

• Golden Legs, Armor, and Helmet also seem to be lighter than most their counterparts, however Golden Boots appear to be the heaviest boots in the game, including the extremely heavy Steel Boots. They're so heavy in fact, they weigh the exact same amount as the Golden Helmet.
• Golden Armor's weight is 80 ounces, which equals 8 kilograms, although, gold is very heavy, much heavier than Iron, material that might be used on other heavier Tibian Armors!

Element Protection Edit

(20%) + (80%) ≠ 100%

• Damage modifiers are multiplicative, not additive. If you wear any elemental set, the amount of damage absorbed won't be equal to the sum of both percentages but the product of them. That is, if you wear a Stone Skin Amulet, with 80% physical resistance, and a Might Ring with 20% (of all many types, including physical), you won't absorb 100% of the physical damage: you will only absorb 84% (1 - 0.8 * 0.2) of damage.

Character Models Edit

• If you look at the male knight outfit from the left side or back, your arms do not look like arms but like severed limbs or flesh-matchsticks!
• If you look at the symbol on the back, you can see that the white square changes place with the brown while spinning.

• Capes look like the cape on a Gamemaster.
  

• The staff of the Female Beggar Outfit is always at character's right hand. also, when you turns to the right, the staff changes to the left hand. If it doesn't, the staff would be in front of the character's face. This is also the same by the outfit of Brotherhood of bones male addon and the Male and female Norseman outfit.
  

• On the male side, there are 5 sword addons, but only 2 axe addons. The Scythe and Wooden stake are debatable. However, in tibia Scythes are considered to be "club" weapons. The wooden stake just doesn't quite seem worthy of sword status.
  

• The feather on the hat of the Citizen outfit also change from left side an right side. Also, the feather of the male addon is bigger than the feather on the female addon.
• The Pirate Outfits has the sprite of the sabre , but it's more curved like .

• As said, there are 5 sword addons and 2 axe addons. Although there are no club addons, even if the Scythe is said to be a "club" weapon.
• The Assassin Outfits has a sword on it's right side, but when the character faces west the sword switches to the left side.
