Any help?
Since you've now been bombarded with links,,, To answer your question a different way, there really isn't an easy way to just know them all, without practice. The names are all random. For me personally when I was learning to memorize what all of them were and the combinations, it actually helped me to learn their keyworded ability, such as raid, outlast, etc. Granted if you are already having trouble keeping everything straight this won't help you much, but if you're like me and it helps you to remember things if you can link with out stuff, the abilities can be an easy way to do that. Also, nice to see you zeal.
