Things with the mouse that should be noted:

1. Left mouse button allows you to look around, and at your character, without taking you off course.
2. The 4th mouse button (the left bottom one on a 5 button mouse) sets you to auto-run. Very useful with the left mouse button!
3. Holding the right mouse button down allows you to move around like a first-person-shooter game (strafing with the "a" and "d" characters while using the mouse to move left or right and control camera pitch).
4. The scroll wheel allows you to zoom in and out on your character. Think Morrowind; You can play third person or first person (zoom all the way in and you can't see your character at all).


Zooming all the way in and holding the right mouse button lets you play WoW like an FPS. Interesting approach when you're in a cave-like area. I've been strafing enemies since I started playing, but my dodge tactics have no effect with this combat system.

The auto-run is invaluable. Just toggle it and let your ghost zoom right to his corpse. All the while you can left mouse button click and look around at the scenery.
"Yay! We did it!"
"Who are you?"
"Um, uh... just ... a guy." *flee*
