In the chat panel part of the manual, ad the different channels we can use, and how to use them.
I noticed a type of "grid-map" in another thread...Perhaps have that included as a "playable-area" region.
I know I use it when locating people in other 'zones'
Uh yeah, maybe add a little artwork to the manual? I love white and all, but then, I don't want to feel like I'm supposed to imagine cool stuff, like you would while reading a book...
More Information
You should clarify or at least mention how hunger and thirst both contribute to your energy gain. Also, for the scavenging category, players should know that you have a better chance of scavenging an item in a junk pile rather than anywhere else.

I got bored to continue looking. You should definitely fix it up and make it look a bit more professional. There is many errors and grammatical mistakes. Some parts don't even sound good or even make sense. I hope I helped..Quote:
You can forage around you for plants that may be useful for your character.

Character Attributes
Your character’s attributes determine your characters predisposition
towards skills different character skills. Having a high attribute score in one
area will make some skills easier to learn and master, however, it will lower
the attribute scores in other areas increasing the challenge of mastering
other skills.
(( Should state something like above so new players are aware ))Quote:
You may raise and lower attributes at character creation creating a score of anywhere from 10-90. You're only able to set your character's attributes once so choose wisely.

Actually according to my English grammar book it is still possible to use a ", and" construction just as you can do an "and" construction when you list stuff. You can also leave out "and" or ", and" and just use a comma. Dunno if that was what you meant as a correction.Quote:

I would, however, make it resistances but only if there are more than one resistance and depending whether or not they are seen as a whole or individual resistances. (but I need to check on this one.)

That's why I said "no need" rather than "you need to remove". If you really wanna contribute, post up some grammatical errors. This guide is something everyone will be referring to, including yourself. Mind as well make it nice and polished before the game gets released.Quote:

More Information
I've been told that dexterity affects all craft skills. However, it doesn't seem to mention masonry under the dexterity attribute in the manual. Being that masonry is a main craft and attributes are irreversible, this should be updated. If masonry does not get a bonus from dexterity, then it should get a bonus from another attribute, like strength for example.
There is no such thing as woodwork.Quote:

I would prefer a web based manual similar to a wiki layout.
See Aion's 'power wiki' as a reference

Purely text based is fine, theres a lack of knowledge in the general playerbase and the accessibility of this format would be easier for users and easier to keep updated over time.
