The item called "Mandreke's Wifes Amulet", should be an apostrophe in the word "Wife's".

The first sentence of the tooltip for Lime is a bit messy. "This sour fruit should not be overlooked by it's powerful taste for the health and mana benefits."
 
First of all, it's should be its (possessive, not a contraction of "it is"). Secondly, the sentence as a whole reads pretty awkwardly, especially as you tend not to overlook "by" something. I would change it to "This fruit should not be overlooked because of its powerful taste: it has great health and mana benefits." or something similar.
 
Tooltip for Weeds: "The common weed may be a nuisance to gardeners, but alchemists have found a purpose for them as a preservative in potions." This is a really minor nitpick, but weed is referred to as a singular in the first clause, but changed to a plural when referring to the purpose alchemists found. It should either be "Common weeds may be a nuisance to gardeners" or "alchemists have found a purpose for it".
 
When handing in Eldevin Army Trial after killing the wild pigs, Captain Garret says "I can see what Captain Martel was so excited by your potential." should be "I can see why".
 
Later on in the same dialogue, he says "but they havn't returned" should be haven't.
 
When trying to click on Fermii's portal, it says "You require Mage Fermii's permission" but the NPC is actually called Alchemist Fermii.
 
During Scholar Farlin's explanation of past events, he says "he released the nature sphere from it's protective scepter" should be its.
 
Later he says "Shortly after you entered, the rip grew more volatile before imploding. Temporarily draining the power from all the spheres and trapping everyone inside." The second sentence should be part of the first one, with a comma instead of a full stop.
 
Later he says "The Arcane Council continue to try find ways to stabilize them long enough to allow safe travel" should be "continue to try finding ways".
 
When talking to the Apprentice Prospecting Trainer about advanced prospecting, he says "You need a Pick Axe to mine out Copper nodes that are found either scattered around the world." This sentence doesn't work gramatically as "either" is a selective word and needs more than one object associated with it.
 
When talking to Prince Ryan about what you remember, one of the options is "A glowing Dragon. It's light is blinding." should be "its".
 
In the quest text for Battle of the Dragons, it says "the dragon will do everything it can to protect it's Sphere." should be "its".

At the Ressurection point in Othalo the Order of Light Priest  says: "Each Point is protected by an order of Life Priest."

 

Need to make the Order a capital.

When talking to Valannus, he says "I'm looking for the Horn's of 10 Shigras." should be Horns.
 
When talking to Soldier Hixs while handing in The Missing Patrol, he says "get retrieve whatever you can!" should just be "retrieve whatever you can!"
 
When handing in The Missing Patrol to Major Rothar (after getting the sword hilt) he says "He was a fine example of military man" should be "fine example of a military man".

I have attached 3 images. 

 

I'm not sure if it's a typo but the Draetol and Treya Silver Coins have the same quotes.

 

For the Major Davias Gold Coin, it says "I enjoy the night, the darkness. Under it's cloak is where I stake my thirst.” It should be "its" (possessive).

In the ressurection point quest in the Eldevin army barracks, when clicking on the army equipment after already receiving it, it should say "I already have the army equipment", not "I already have army equipment"

Typos/errata in Abilities and Talents, noticed during talent planner update, needing correction by HCS:
 
  • The Mage Spell "Despair" says Range 4yd.  Shouldn't that be Range 12yd (to center of area), Radius 4yd for the area of effect?
  • The Warrior talent "Adrenaline Rush" uses bracket-quoting for second line showing the actual use of the effect, instead of just in the initial mention part, violating the usual style.
  • No actual line drawn from "Blood Thirst" to "Hunger for Blood" in the Assassin talent pane, even though the space is available and the dependency is there.  (The planner shows the arrows.)
  • The Blood Fang mentions in the dependent Ranger talents "Blood Link" and "Blood Trail" body text are shown incorrectly as "Bloodfang".
  • The Mage talent "Flash Freeze" should have a 's' (seconds) suffix to the '4/8' value.

 

(List duplicated from original announcement post.)

Picture Postcard Quest

Zuen is now the female NPC.  The quest references Zuen as the husband.  I believe the names are reversed on these NPC's.

Also, the quest marker was over her head not his.

While reading about an issue in another thread, I noticed two misspellings from the screen shot.  Unique way to find it :)

 

"the material turns out to be"

 

"heres" should be "here's"

 

Here's the original post.  Can't figure out how to link the picture directly.

Test the Waters Quest.  Khalen says the following about the spring in Rosehaven. "That will be strongest source of the Nature magic."  Need to add in a "the"  "That will be the strongest source..."
