EE is starting soon, and I would like to create here a list of links for new players to learn about official and PFO community created resources so they can better understand many aspects about this game (as many helpful tools, guides, wiki, and calculators are scattered all over the place). I would like to thank everyone who has put time and effort into creating these community resources. Note that below is not a full list, assistance in making this a comprehensive list is welcome! To start:

Alpha Information

Quick Start Guide

General Information

Goblinworks

Goblinworks Blogs

Pathfinder Online Wiki

Gobbocast

PFO on Ideascale

PFO Paizo Forum

Goblinworks Forum

PFO Kickstarter

Settlement Recruitment

Developer Spreadsheets (Public Share)

Nihimonicon: Settlement Recruitment & Helpful Links

Editors Notes:
1- To avoid inappropriate terminology, all instances of the world "Guild" has been replaced with the correct PFO term of "Settlement".

Thank you!

I've been here for two years, and that is an impressive list (thank you, Giorgo)--it's also scary-long. We might need a way of sorting it into some order: "If you're encountering Pathfinder Online for the first time, and know nothing yet, go to #1 first, then #2...by the time you get to #[X], you'll know enough to pick your own topics".

Because the posts are uneditable after an hour, you might want to consider maintaining that as a forum "list" that you can update and rearrange as necessary?

there's such a list (which I haven't been maintaining) here: http://paizo.com/people/CaldeatheBaequiannia/wishlists/v5748l939kwi5

Cal B,

Your link is already included above. ;)


Ooo. Very nice. And now I'll have a lot to read today in between refreshing my email every five minutes.

D'Oh! Great, now I have to start maintaining it....

I didn't actually mean to suggest it as a viable resource, just that the process of using a list is a bit less prone to aging, since you don't get locked out of it after an hour.

Are there any new player resources to add to the above list?

There have been some nice things done by individuals who took the initiative to help the community.

Might I be so bold as to suggest now might be a time to start consolidating resources. I by no means wish to suggest people stop doing their personal projects if it keeps them engaged, but for those willing to offer information they have gathered which can be formatted and setup in a centralized location(here being the website)

I think we have an opportunity to turn pathfinderonlinehq.com into the one stop shopping needs for help. Just a thought.

A searchable database is being constructed, and help guides are being published.

If anyone wishes to freely provide their knowledge to be in someway added to the website, and or have a request of something you want to "see" on the site then you may get in contact with Doc, or myself as an intermediary.

I know one thing we'd like to post up are "how to" articles covering many aspects of the game. If you like creating these come chat with me.

Another thing as well, Guilds, or settlements can create a info/recruitment section on the site as well. So if you run a guild, feel free to head over and do that.

@Atheory, I don't mind you add your sales pitch to my reference thread (as I like and use your site), but could you PLEASE format the links when you post your info? Thanks. :)

For your convenience if you replace the round parentheses in the following with square brackets it would make a (url=http://www.pathfinderonlinehq.com)link(/url).
