Most of the graphics are just screenshots and are very small and fuzzy. Complete waste of time and money. This "guide" frankly isn't any help at all. I can't believe that this is "official."
This guide is incomplete, its a rush rush job with very little help full detail. Maps are blank with no important details.you can't get updates from the website either.Wait for V.2 of the book to be released.lvl 45 rangerWishbone
This was sort of helpful in picking what class to play, but didn't really give in depth guides to anything.
The back of the guide even devotes pages to "maps" of hyboria that are simply screenshots of the game. I purchased this guide hoping it would expand on the pitiful game manual -- suffice to say, it doesn't.Everything in the guide can be read from the game tooltips, and there's no in-depth explanations at all. There's a lot of unknowns in Age of Conan: from the peculiar stat system to the actual numerical effects of certain buffs and skills. Class descriptions are sanitised and mostly the same ("an excellent solo class, but don't forget to buff up before a fight blah blah"). just press the "m" key.A total waste of money, especially considering the massive patch changes that Funcom continues to implement.
How much of a chance does it give. They are there but they have no info on them. I had some trouble locating a few things in dungeons that had no mini-map. All in all this book is good for some quest info. It doesn't give any hard numbers for feats or skills. If you want to make potion X this book will tell you what ingredients you need to make it. So the book did help with those which is why it gets 2 stars instead of one.
Aside from looking nice they have no function. Sure, it had a quest marker but with no map I had no idea how to get there. But the book doesn't tell you what potion X is or what it even does. On any given feat or skill it'll say something like "give small chance" or "gives small increase".
I guess my main issue is with the way the book presents material. That's what I need to know. We didn't even get an in game free item for it. What I want to know is, is it worth my time to learn that skill or feat. Not really useful at all.Also the maps are useless. But that info can be found online for free. That's good.
No markers on where people or places can be found. Half the book is on character creation and all the info they give is fuzzy. You get better info from the in game mini-map.Professions and crafting are there but once again they're missing important info. Don't bother with this book.
