I think most people are aware of the basic keyboard shortcuts in LotRO. K for skills, L for your quest log, I for inventory and so forth. There are others that are a little less obvious, likely only used by those who bother to look at the in-game key mapping menus. I thought it would be nice to cover some of the most useful ones here. Obviously these are using the default key mappings.
Auto Loot
Auto Loot automatically takes all items from a corpse, assuming you have room. This can be enabled by default in the UI Settings menu, but if you’d rather leave it off you can use Shift+Left Click to do it as you wish. Useful when you have tons of inventory space and don’t want to waste time. Slayer Deeds come to mind.
Detach Tooltip
Hovering over almost anything in-game displays a relevant tool tip. If, for some reason, you don’t want that tool tip to go away, you can press H. This detaches the tool tip and converts it to a normal box. You can move it around as you please.
Autoattack Toggle
I’m sure everyone knows that the number keys handle the skills you’ve placed in your quickslots. What about your normal attack? Just hit ~ (tilde) to initiate it. This was something I didn’t realize until I was in the game for a few weeks. Quite useful. If you have a ranged attack and are far enough away (assuming you don’t have “run to target on attack” enabled in the Options), this will initiate that as well.
