Chinese clients label their systems in their own shorthand, and the English build usually renames them. Learn the six words that sit on the HUD, the dungeon list, the guild ledger and the faction panel — and what each one is actually gating.
Start with the summary, then read the entry you need. Every definition is the general term used across games; the exact numbers belong to each game's own guide.

Four systems, one loop. Most daily complaints in Chinese game chat are about which of these four thresholds hit first.
Tili
ti li · stamina
Tili is stamina: the daily budget each run spends, refilling on a timer whether you play or not.
Do not readIt as health. It limits how much content you may enter per day; combat health is a separate bar.
English UI“stamina”, “energy”, “vigour”.
In gamesEntry costs on the dungeon list, refills bought with premium currency or gifted by friends. A full bar sitting unused is the commonest waste in the genre.
Guaji is leaving the character on autopilot: the game farms for you while the screen stays open.
Do not readIt as logging out. Guaji means still connected; logging out is a different word, and the difference decides whether a guild counts you present.
English UI“auto-battle”, “AFK mode”, “idle”.
In gamesOvernight farming, auto-pathing quests, AFK arena modes. Some games cap it, others sell an offline mode that pays less.
Paimai is the auction: guild loot is sold inside the guild, and the proceeds are split by attendance or contribution.
Do not readIt as the open player market. The point is redistribution — the drop stays in the guild and the money returns to the members who earned it.
English UI“guild auction”, “guild shop”, “bid”.
In gamesGuild raids drop an item only members may bid on; the pot is divided at reset. Officers decide who is allowed to bid, which is the real leverage.
Yes. The client is still connected and the character still acts. Guilds that count attendance by login will count it; guilds that count by participation in scheduled events will not.
Why is my zhanli high but my damage low?
Power scores usually include health, defence and gear level, so they can be padded. Check the actual stat spread and your rotation before trusting the number.
Can I switch faction later?
Sometimes, usually for a fee or a long cooldown. On two-camp servers the choice also decides who you can group with, so read the restriction before picking.
