I'll try to answer you the best I can.

>How many items, armors, weapons are in this Ryzom world?
I really have no clue the only thing I can say is lots.
Items, weapons, and armor is made up of a combination of things. There are 250 different levels of quality. Then you have the possiblity of 5 different levels of resource materials. Then you have parts from all the mobs.

>Are there any pets anf if are then what can I do with them and where can I get them?
Right at this moment there ar packers. They are basically the mules of the game. Next patch there will be mounts.

>Are there big citys if are where, and how to get there?
Depends on what you think is big. They aren't City of Heroes big. I would call them large villages. You get to them either by using a teleport ticket or walking.

>Can one race attack anothers races citys?
Seeing as NPCs in the cities are generally not attackable, I would say no to this. You can hit a tribes outpost though.

>Are there big missions?
Not on the live server right now. They are due to be put in next patch (in a few weeks time). They will be added as there are some test versions on the test server.

>How many skills are in Ryzom?
The way the skill system works is you get skill attributes and you build your own skills from that. For example there is a circular attack skill, an increase damage skill, and a bleeding skill. You can combine them to get an entire new skill. As for how many skill attributes, not any clue. Again all I can say is lots.


>What is the best thing in Ryzom?
I'd say the world easily. Unlike most MMO's where things can see blocky and fake, everything in Ryzom seems alive.

>What you like best in this game and how long do you play it?
I spend a large amount of time building fame. Mostly because in the near future there will be content based upon it.

>Where there any skill resets?
One. It was when they redid many of the skill trees. I highly doubt you will see it again.

>What can I do in Ryzom? Only hit monsters? Ore there are invasions, attacks ore something like that?

You can attack mobs or NPC groups. There are invasions every now and them also. In addition you can craft, harvest, and practice magic. Exploration is very challenging as you have to really learn how the mobs move, act, and think. There are due to be boss challange missions concerning bosses next patch.

There are at least 252 pieces of clothing, 180 weapons, and 24 shields with different graphics. The clothes come in different colors. There's also jewelry, but it doesn't display on your character. All useful equipment is player-made. At the moment there are few items other than equipment and crafting materials.

The packers aren't very useful as pets, they're just storage. They will follow you, and die, and that's about it.

The number of unique skills in SoR is about what you'd expect. As a melee fighter I have access to 20-30. As a healer it's 10-20. Every skill can be upgraded over the course of the game, and skills can be combined into new types of actions.

There isn't much content yet. You can kill monsters, craft, harvest, and explore. There are some tough group challenges and events happen every one or two weeks. We had an invasion type event the weekend before last (with two groups of players competing). Before that was a story event. Now there's an upcoming PvP tournament.

I like Ryzom because of the world and the community. I have no plans to leave.

I can think of more than 30 specific monster types off the top of my head. There's good variety and lots of options. Aside from wildlife, there are tribes of NPCs who will attack you in groups, and there are "boss" types in every region (stronger variants of the other mobs).

The game is growing and will continue to grow. There's a patch coming up that should add a lot of content. I assume new maps, monsters, skills, and items will be coming sometime around spring.
