Quick write up for dark elf newbies if you wanna add to the site because I'm bored at work :P

From Neriak entrance, head northeast (not sure of the actual dir, but speaking as if your back is facing Neriak) to the "newbie log". ...
Southwest, actually, but it doesn't matter since no newbie is going to have sense heading worth a crap [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My main suggestion is to focus on mob statistics - even research info is fairly easy to find (Crys.org, with the exception of trivial levels), but mob info in p1999 - hp, max hit, spells cast by caster mobs, possibly with calculations based on parsing of relative AC for mobs in classifications like "Heavy AC," "Moderate AC," "Low AC," etc.

One of the things i'd love to be able to know is exactly how much damage I need to do to bring a mob down, or the kinds of things it'll throw at me, or the exact percentage drop rates of certain items...

Great work though - looks like it has real potential. Like our own p99 version of Allakhazam =)

I would need more information on which mobs you want this on, and what information you want me to attack to that mob.

I tried adding more specifics to boss abilities but my stuff was removed.

Fixed, there was an approval process setup, enabled registered users to not have that approval process.

Macro Info that every Bard should see:

In order to cut the number of keystrokes/clicks it takes to start each song in half, make yourself 8 macros, as below:

/stopsong
/cast [1-8]

And then bind the keys you want to start your songs with to those 8 macros.

To cut down even further on keystrokes, you can make two-song macros as well:

/stopsong
/cast 1
/pause 30
/stopsong
/cast 2

Activating this macro will cause you to stop your current song, start song 1, and then after a wait of 3 seconds (the casting time for all songs), start song 2. Just make another for songs 3 and 4, and you can twist 4 songs with 2 keys!

Note: If you find your latency is especially low, you may need to increase the pause to 31, in order to avoid cutting off the first song of the macro.

Some informative posts I read before rolling my bard. Not sure if there are summaries of the posts but maybe you can add some sort of forum index for helpful posts?
