I have a few questions/comments in regards to the available information that may or may not have been answered at some point, whether it was here or elsewhere in a different section of the guild:

1. What are the 'archery' options for classes?

Reason: I'm a little bit curious about this subset of classes in that out of all the ones out there, the variations of such a class are extremely limited in terms of their versatility of their weapons.
        i.e. You can have a multitude of classes with a sword-bearing class (Berserkers, Warriors, Duelists, etc), but archers are innately restricted to their ranged-weapon counterparts (bows, longbows, crossbows).

Many classes are dependent on their weapons/defenses (i.e. Rapier = Duelist, Sword/Shield = Defense-type class) but there isn't as much versatility with archers (i.e. all bows could be utilized for the same classes). So I'm wondering what's the distinction that separates all the bows and respective classes, if there is any.

2. Would it be possible if I could help with some grammar/spell-checking?

Reason: Nothing really, I just noticed a lot of grammatical errors throughout the guides and information provided, so I thought it would be nice to have someone help spell-check it. Just a suggestion, I have no problems with leaving it as is.

3. Possible alternatives to coloring/post sizes?

Reason: I have eyes sensitive to bright light and colors, so it's a little difficult for me to read some of the colors used to format certain posts. Perhaps a color that's a little darker? The font is unusually small, and I'm not sure if that's just Gaia's funky formatting system for guilds or my computer screen. If it's a hassle to change it, it's not a problem for me - I can just highlight/copy+paste it to read the information a little better.

4. Possible FAQ?

Reason: This is an optional "short-version" to a lot of the lengthy guides, possibly good for users who have been in the guild a while and read through all the information, but may have forgotten a few key details and need to go through the guides again. It would be a pain to have to comb through everything to look for what you need, but then again I just realized there's a function called "CTRL + F". razz Perhaps in case someone has a question that's already been answered a few times? I don't know, just throwing these things out there for possible ideas.

I'm probably going to ask a lot more in the future, in terms of questions about the guild itself or some other minute details, but these have been on the forefront of my mind up to now.

I think it might be just color. xD I think in general small fonts + bright colors do not make a fun, readable text, at least in my opinion.

Ah, thank you for clarifying that for me. I wasn't aware that Rangers were included in the "Ranged" category as in most MMOs I've seen they're usually classified as DPS/Support due to the limitations of types of attacks they can perform. Well, that's what I've generally seen since I rarely pick major DPS classes in games. sweatdrop

I don't think there is much to begin with in terms of variations for classes for rangers, but it is interesting to see how it differs from the other classes. Most of the other ones usually have a weapon limitation (i.e. Duelists aren't likely to be wielding two handed heavy swords and likewise, tanks aren't gonna be using toothpick rapiers) so the fact that rangers aren't limited to only one type of weapon probably sets them differently from other people. That's actually fine - I was curious as to what might entail this kind of classification.

FAQs are more to answer questions that come up often, but aren't usually included into the core information due to the lengthiness it may posses. It's also designed more for longer existing RPs that have seen enough traffic to generate questions, so that can hold off for a while. It's just something that popped up in my mind.

------------------

I'm pretty sure this is a W.I.P. but if you need any help or suggestions for the Skills List, I could offer some help? Though I think it'd be better to get a general consensus on how to flesh it out completely. sweatdrop

(P.S. I ******** up and accidentally edited your above post instead of quoted it. Buttons do nooooot like me.)

Alright sounds great than.^^
Kk and I have a section for faq whenever its needed. C:

The color is good so far, I haven't found anything else as of yet, but I'll let you know if I catch anything else.

Ranger should stay in Ranged, if it's in there. I don't remember off the top of my head lol.

The FAQ we'll figure it out eventually. xD

I'll think of something to help you out with that in the meantime. I'm still in class atm so focus there instead of here really.

Okay, so there are two (or three, depending on how you look at it) sets of skills that I'm looking at here: you have active skills and passive skills for each type of weapon. If I'm correct, we should be able to list when they're available for each weapon-type and what they do. I think spoiler sections should help with condensing the page to prevent stretching and though I do like the idea of alphabetizing the "general" category, it would help using "spoilers" as a way to hide the excessive information and sorting them into smaller sections based on what certain sets of skills match (i.e. woodcutting + carpentry because they both work with wood). Of course it doesn't necessarily mean once you pick that 'sub-section' you're stuck in it, it's just a little more organized that way I think.

(I don't remember if spoilers are workable in guilds yet or not)

Then there are class-related skills which I can see you've started for sword/based classes, but nothing for the other classes. It's a bit confusing and I think it'll get super complicated since some classes may repeat certain skills. Maybe we could transfer those to the "Skills List" forum and have several classes share a same passive, but can have different ones. I could try to explain this one, but then again I might be confusing things further. Idk. That's just my suggestion.

Those are my current thoughts on the arrangement of skills, but I'm willing to compromise if there's a better idea we can come up with.

Yeah, I wanted to add a description but I got confused because I didnt really know how to explain them. I love the spoiler idea , though im not quite sure what to add under them, unless you'd like to help add? Maybe if you can help with a few itll help me understand better so I can do some too if that would be ok with you. ; 3
I believe spoilers still work.
Ah yeah, I had a bit help with the skills and classes but I guess the sword one was easiest to think of stuff to add. Thats why theres more there than the rest. ; 3 Do you know of any good ones? (: idk I get confused easily but I think I kinda get what you mean.

I really cant think of much my brain isnt working x3

Explaining the weapons or types of skills or...?

The spoiler idea is just to help condense the page so we're not stretching it too much. Just put all the information on the skills available for each weapon type in a spoiler so that way people can open/close it quickly and get to the next section without having to scroll as much. I'll figure something out with some skills next - right now I've been focused on proofreading and stuff.

Class passives, against I'll put that on the list of things to help with but down the line lol.

I'm not thinking well either. I've been up for almost 15 hours and my brain is muddled like scrambled eggs.

Also, I did a little bit of revision a lot of revisions of the first post to the Skills List. I was wondering if that version is okay with you, but if you want to keep the old one, I can change it back. I have both saved on an online document so I can share it with you for you to make the decision. [I do a lot of essay revisions for most of my classmates since I'm usually the one acing essays in my courses. Force of habit, forgive me.]

I guess the weapons. Do the skills need work too? guedgghd, sorry for that post. I wrote it right before bed and I was literally extremely tired about to pass out, I apologize.

Yeah I see. ;3 I like it, keeps things organized and I love organized stuff. ^^ I would really love to help out, I'm really not too smart so I would literally just sit for hours trying to think of something and end up with nothing. >3< So sorry if I'm overworking you. ]: But thank chu so much for your help, I really do appreciate it. ^3^

Aw poopie, I wanna help with the class but I can't think of anything at all to add for the others and I feel really bad about that. :/

Oh my, if your tired please get some rest, sleep always comes first before anything. x3

Ah I see it. Thanks so much! ^.^ Yes actually, I love it! What you have now it fine and great. [Aw thats so nice of you. I had no one like that in my classes. x3]

Hello ^^ new to this Guild, and working on my profile. I was wondering though Is there a hammer/mace class? Like a 2H hammer or axe? I know this is SAO having the name "Sword" in it. But if I recall in Season 2, Klein obtained Mjölnir (Which I would really like to work hard to obtain ;D) I know there is blacksmith which I might be looking into. But I was just wondering if there was any others? like magic users that can be like Berserkers? kinda like how Asuna is a Healer Berserker. I am just wondering about this.

As of right now, we're working on fleshing out all the classes. There does exist axes and maces in terms of weapons however. If you do have suggestions for skills and weapon names for the guides, it would be greatly appreciated though. o 3o

And welcome to the guild btw. x3 I'm Bao - in charge of proofreading the guides and stickies as well as helping the Cap'n out with filling out the blank spaces in the threads.

Hi and thanks ^^ nice to meet you, I can think up a few ideas o.o I have made a few RPG games with RPG Maker just for fun. Also I might end up need help with my character ^^;; Since some of the questions are a little hard to answer for my character. Mostly because I was thinking the In game character can be slightly different then the outside character.

Oh also I was wondering if depending on weapons, like most MMO's is there different level of weapons? Like the color of the weapon's name depends on it's rarity?
Normal = Gray or Black (easy drop nothing special)
Common = Green (has 1 stat boost)
Non Common = Blue ( has 2 stat boosts)
Rare = Red (4 stat boosts and adds a skill/ability)
Super Rare = Gold or Yellow (5 stat boosts and adds a skill/ability)
Legendary = Purple (6 stat boosts and adds 1 or 2 skills/abilities)

Yeah, due to the lack of relevant information available its difficult to complete it when you don't have something to help. I've had to put my own character on hold for it too. ^^;; It's fine to ask help - we're working on a FAQ in case things like these come up so that way it'll help clear up some confusion, but we've yet to get any that come up often enough. I'm surprised by the number of people in the guild, yet not as many have been "active" as I noticed lately. Maybe that's just me and I've only been in the guild for 2,3 days. o.o;;

I was actually thinking that, and it makes senses that something like that would be included in the RP. We'll have to think of some way to incorporate a rarity system.

You weren't kidding about how not many are "active" So far I only seen you and Sillicaa posts. I would think a few others would have posted today or something. Well there is always a system to figure out how much Cor and if your able to gain a certain rarity item. Since I noticed there was a dice rolling area. Using that will help with Cor and the item you gain in the quest. Since it's always a chance drop to get something rare.

You need to do math to get the amount of Cor and the chance you can get a rare item. I would do a equation based on the dice and the number the person gets. I would also go by the monster or enemy they fought and a few other things to get the amount of Cor they earned and if they got a rare or common item.

Or it could just be the item and not the amount of Cor you get.
