Here are a collection of guides I have written that will help any new player, even if you are just starting for the first time, or have been playing for a while. These go over some very basic, but very important topics that will help you when playing Shroud of the Avatar. What I am going to provide here, is a list of all the guides I have (and will be adding) and provide one source for you to find them all. Of note, all of my guides will always be up to date. I confirm and verify the information contained in my guides. And I routinely check these each release (or so, depending on my time). If something does change, I will update the section of my guide that has changed. I'll just update this original post as I add more. There are already numerous threads all over the forum on many subjects, and I encourage you to read them, like the excellent Rinaldi's List Of Useful Links (that has TONS of useful information). You can always read the Player Instruction guide that is updated and found in game, by clicking on the Help icon, that is at the top of your screen in game. This contains a vast amount of information to help you play the game. My guides try to convey information to any new player, that has just joined the game and is starting to play now. I try to approach each guide with that in mind. Our game can be a bit intimidating at first, when you are a completely new player (people always forget that). I will try my best to keep these up to date. I will however note at the bottom of each of these guides when I did last check and verity the information contained with it. When in doubt if something seems off always PLEASE do let me know and I'll try to get it updated. But also always refer to your character’s task list and read all journal entries for your primary quest goals and what to do next.
