Will ARR have a strategy guide planned?

[Elexia]

The problem with printed guides for a mmo is they get outdated very quickly because patches change stuff.

Yes..which is why they reprint them every 2 years if the MMO actually lasts that long.

Yet, a printed guide would start becoming outdated and could/would contain incorrect information as soon as the very next hotfix.. which potentially could be mere days later. It's a waste to buy a printed MMOs guide for the purpose of using it, when then the same, likely much more accurate info, can be found easily and for free. I can understand the collectors interest in them though.

They could just do a digital subscription that's updated at least monthly (perhaps even weekly). For 2-5 bucks a month or something you could get a XIV game magazine that serves as a 'guide' for new and popular content for the time period (you could always peruse through the archives for guides on older content). Depending on how well it was done, I'd definetly consider paying for a guide like that, if only for noveltly of having that option versus searching through wikia and other various sites.
