1.0 out of 5 stars One of the worst guides I've encountered January 27, 2012

Before I state anything else, note that I use this guide strictly for the monster, weapon, trait, and skills list. That being said, the guide in general has a hundred spelling and grammar mistakes that points to bad editing on Brady Guides part. It even goes as far as to give false information because of typos; in example, it has Atlas as an M ranked monster even though there is no such rank, and it has Great Dragon as a D ranked monster even though it's an A ranked monster.

I buy a guide to be completely accurate and give me as much information as it can. This guide fails on all fronts. The monster guide is completely vague, making synthesizing monsters more of a hassle than it should be, and its inaccuracies make me fear trusting in it. For example, instead of listing whether a monster should simply be bread with a certain monster family of a certain rank, it gives examples of what you could synthesize. It's often times hard to tell what the common factor is in the examples, so you waste time trying to find or synthesize the certain monster, only to later find out that it could be bread with ANY creature at all to make the monster you wanted.

5.0 out of 5 stars Guide for you January 14, 2012

By Joy B. Beale

Format:Paperback

i just love this book. The game has taken up quite a few hours of my life and having the book really has enhanced the gaming experience. If you really want to get every ounce out of a game, I think these guides are perfect. I enjoy looking at it in my spare time too. Its good having each and every monster's stat information available to easily see, where to find the monster and help or ideas for synthesising them. Very good tool if you are really into the game.
