Will ARR have a strategy guide planned?

[Uriahnool]

I've seen at my local Gamestop that Guild Wars 2 has a strategy guide/walkthrough out currently and so does Mists of Pandara. With all the content being released for 2.0 I am wondering how we are going to keep track of it all? Does anyone know if there will be a strategy guide coming out with walkthroughs, recipes, quests, a bestiary, and maps?

I had a feeling today that there will be a lot of awesome features and things implemented in 2.0 that will be too much for someone to get their heads around, and might need some assistance to figure thing out and some tips along the way. Hopefully content won't keep changing for 2.0 like 1.0 did and they can say with some certainty that features that we see at the beginning will be consistent throughout the life of the game.

I have one from Brady Games for FFXI published in 2003. I sure hope A Realm Reborn eventually comes out with one - they really are a big help and offer a nice reference tool.

Yep. It's called GameFAQs. It even updates itself.

What's wrong with wikia? You see, it would be a waste of trees if you can't update your hard copy guide. :3

Among a plethora of other websites. Far simpler than digging through a book.

Nothing beats holding the game guide in your hands and going through the pages in amazement i like the idea but don't make it much a guide but more something that goes through everything 2.0 has to entertain you and throw in some exclusive stuff

Funny, when I buy any game I really never feel the necessity of buying a guide book because I can always check out the internet what to do. It would be a good idea for PC users who want to play it with full-screen. You see how you played in 1.0 without a guide book because quest logs tell you what to do.

guide books like FFXI had stuff on jobs explained abilities and levels you got them to types of subjobs for the main... even had mobs and what they droped and a bestiary and stuff and all the weapons and stats and stuff it was preety cool to have at hand and stuff
