Ryzom

I have played lots of mmorpg's and enjoy getting the hint books that they sell with them. I know you can get most if not all the info off of the web, but I still like to have a bounded book just to use a references sometimes.

Is there a book out yet for this game?
Thanks

Dont think there is enough for a whole book yet. Do you?

Lots of guides and hint on this forum alone, plus links to other sites.
Besides that, a websearch is helpful too.

I know of at least five foragers that could bind a book of at least 200 pages with maps for foraging spots with details in color coding as to when those nodes are there, strategies to leveling faster, which skills to buy when to level the fastest in a group...solo...in a guild with higher level foragers, details about which stanzas to use on which node modes, and their opinions upon which regions/civilizations have the "best foraging".

I know of at least TEN melees that could bind a book of at least 50 pages with maps of mob spawns, color coded, and iconized for level and aggressiveness (or lack there of).

I know of at least three mission specialists that could bind a book of at least 20 pages (prolly a LOT more) of maps of mission related sites of interest, including dotted lines of mission message recipients, mission mats color coded to when those mats are there, Color codes for what NPC gives what level of quest. AND each NPC's fame. Oh and a fame chart suitable for corporate presentation.

I know of at least ten crafters that could bind a book heavy enough to kill a YELK, filled with...the stats of each mat including ALL grades of all lands, the colors that each mat of each grade is including PR mats and quartered mats and the spawn areas of those mobs and a screenshot of that mob (and its level and aggressivenes), Screenshots of every race's armor of each level (Basic, Medium Quality and High Quality) in every color combo possible, on every race in game and both genders, pages listing the "best possible combination" for every item that can be crafted including range and ammo, a list of quarted items that are the "magic secret ingredient" (like Gingo ligaments that throw the Protection over the Max of 10% in light armor).

And I know of several guides in the Players guides section of this forum that would fill a decently sized "Ryzom for dummies" type book.

All in all, I think the reason that there is no Ryzom the strategy book is that the book would have to come in either FOUR or FIVE volumes each the size of the Oxford unabridged DICTIONARY.

As mentioned before, if you dig deep enough you'll find hints here in the forumn. There are websites that have excellent sources of information. DoubleTap's Guide to Harvesting is a great primer. You can find it on Melione's website, http://ryzom.twazz.net

As far as a book I can tell you that would be a tricky one. While the core engine hasn't changed some of the fundamentals have changed a dozen times since beta (when most hint books are written). The targeting system has changed three times since launch for another example. With that and the new features being added with each patch a hint book would be outdated fairly quickly.

Check out our website too. It doesn't have a "How to make a million dappers a day" Guide or anything like that but it does have a few databases of in-game content with even more to come.

I didnt put the whole post here. I see why you think there is enough.
But, your talking spoiler book and, if you put all that stuff in ther thats what it will be.

A guide book is more creatures, story outline, maps, tribes roles and alliances and general mission stuff to get you started. Hey!....... maby there is enough for a guide book! Im glad I responded to your post.
