For a complete noob, it was a good book for getting familiar with the game, such as learning the lingo and etiquette, learning some of the class roles, seeing which spells are available, etc. Yeah, a lot of the info was dated, but it was still a fun read during downtime, patch days, and internet outages.

The best part was the gods section imo, and i rememebr being dissapointed they only listed the stats for bears, gnolls, gators etc. Not to mention about 10 % of the info in the book was just strait wrong.

It made an allusion to it for a class - I do not remember which - that said although wis was highlighted, wis was not a primary stat for said class. That much I remember.

The guide was, by and large, corrrect, and I still use it for spells/recipes.

Think I still have mine around somewhere. I used to read it whenever I took a shit. Most of the info is kinda useless in it though.

This part is just extremely far from the truth; the grand majority of the information in the book is still accurate.
