Character info

Redirected from Character screen

This article or section needs to be cleaned up to a higher standard of quality.

This may include editing to correct spelling and grammar, rewriting sections to ensure they are clear and concise, and wikifying.

Reason: Labeled image needs guild and title with labels as well as Currency tab.

Character Info frame (sometimes called "character sheet") displays information about the player's character. A window that by default shows the character's name (with title), level, class, guild (if a member), equipped items, and paper doll rendering. The character info window is usually accessed via the default "C" key binding. Since Patch 4.0.1, attributes, combat stats, resistances, and other info is viewable in a slide-out Stats panel accessible via a button at the lower right of character window. In addition, an Equipment Manager feature was added to manage equipped items via a separate, but attached window that is accessible via a button to the upper right of the character window. Lastly, you can see reputation levels and currency counts via the Reputation tab and Currency tab.
