Anyone got the GW Prima guide yet?

That's missing? Well here is another place for it...

Sakalo Yawpyawl (Witman's Folly)

it tells you what boss to beat for the elite skills but it doesnt tell you where to find them...BUT, you can kinda figure it out...still rough

prima said they will update the guide as gw gets updated

Tala, what this community lacks right now is the information on which NPCs give which quest rewards and where they are located. Specifically the non-elite spells. Most elites have been discovered already. There are over 400 skills though, so it's prolly too much to just type it all out. Maybe you could scan some pages?

Wow thats harsh! It's like they're handing you the keys to a Ferrari and letting you know that it's "somewhere in the world, good luck finding it."

Yeah I noticed that too

What ?!

are you saying that boss has both victory is mine and wars endurance?

Most people who are after the elite skills just happen to know where to find almost all the bosses sence we see the so much =P

Neg, Victory is Mine is JONO Yawpyawl, not Sakalo Yawpyawl.

And Jono is in Talus Chute

Sorry folks, no scanner.

The only way I ever buy the strategy guides for games like this is with the digital download - costs less - and you get free updates to the book as the game shifts and changes. I did get the prima guide - just cause as I am now finishing my Ranger/Necro and starting up my Elem/Mes - I like to see the skills all in one place - where you get them - what they do - etc etc etc. the maps are cool - but this book also did a good job with why you don't want to be a ranger/warrior etc etc... lot's of DUH stuff - but it's still nice to have all the skills etc etc in one place when you are switching back and forth between characters.

So I mail it back to them for the updates?

j/k

I'm just fond of printed material. Nothing like holding it in your hand. I still use forums/fansites for build ideas and help when I'm stuck, but I almost always use a printed guide for a "starting point".

I just picked it up and I have found numerous glarring omissions and errors. A lot of the information in this book is very outdated... *very* outdated.

It is amazing how much more helpful fan sites are than the official books.

Frankly I don't know why all this isn't covered in the instructions to the game itself. Instead, intelligent and dedicated fans of the game must figure out formulas, etc, by trial and error and then post it for free, when the makers of the game we purchased, who have all of the information at the fingertips, put together a book with inferior information and charge and arm and a leg for it.

Perhaps the people who have figured out this information should collect it all together and publish their own unofficial GW guide. Put it on CDs and charge 5 dollars a piece. I would pay for something like that. I would pay for the book if it contained useful information---but, since they are not doing it, maybe the fans will.

Of course it takes later release date for Amazon UK to have the Prima Guide. Don't you realize how long it takes to add all those extra U's to words like colour and armour??

Sakalo in Witman's has it, I just got it sunday (after 5 freaking days)

I have it and yes it has alot of stuff in it bonuses and all

Valin, where did you pick it up? My local GameSpot doesn't have them in stock yet. I checked Best Buy yesterday. Not there either.

I bought the e-guide and it is definitely the smarter way to go. That way you can get updates for free as opposed to a static book with no updates ever.

It is worth it in my opinion. Especially since you can easily minimize the game, look at the e-guide, then jump right back into it knowing what to do if you are stuck.
