I didn't find a thread/post specifically for this, so I thought of making one.
If there is one and I was just too noob to find it, please do say or make some forum mod magic and add this typo to that thread.

 

Small typo. There's an "it" that's not necessary.

Thanks for that! We're not 100% sure how we're planning to colour those parts of the tool tips. I've removed the green for now so it matches the other warrior abilities. :)

Maybe you can leave the text the same white colour, and at the end of the decription add something like:

"The next level of this skill will grant you x% Melee Attack Power".

All potion have the word "crafted" in item description. HP potion description are dark red in colour. I thought that my level is not high enough to use it when I see it for the first time. :| May be you can change it to bright red colour?

Ahhh!  Didn't realize there was a thread for these sorts of things.

Here are three more from the earliest stages of the game.  (Basic tutorial type quests.)


Recommended change to: "regain" (remove 'try')

("Do, or do not.  There is no 'try'."  - Master Yoda)
missing-words-01_zps9af173ed.jpg

 

Recommended change to: "these Jute Seeds to spare" or "these spare Jute Seeds."
(reorder phrase)

Recommended change to: "These are: "

(remove hyphen & extra space before colon)

After killing Priest Jadio's 10 goblins, the following typo was found.

 

Recommended change: "for" instead of "to".

While talking to Scholar Farlin about the history of the world:

 

colonnotaperiod_zpsb75b96cc.png

 

The circled period should be a colon, since we're talking about a series of items (people) following it.

 

The larger circled section should read "... devised by the General of the Army-- the King's very own son, Prince Ryan --in order to ..." because naming the son this way is an interruption of the sentence with a relevant detail.

 

And ...

 

pluraldragonspossessive_zpse5c5a310.png

 

"... from the dragon's lair." is actually referring to multiple dragons in one lair (as noted in the very next sentence, so this should be "... dragons' lair."

 

In the next section of his ... history lesson ... Scholar Farlin ends a sentence and names the series of elements belonging to the spheres.  As mentioned previously, that'd be a colon instead of a period.

I'm doing Mage's quest "Trouble in the forest". After I defeated the golem and the evil NPC ran away, I try to use another exit (guarded by 1  NPC outside). It says "You must be closer to use this door" but I'm close to the door. I think it should say "the door is locked from outside" or something like that.

You are more likely to get these typos fixed if you submit a bug report for them.

There is a section titled 'Spelling mistakes or typos' for this.

I think one of the rules of being a GM/forum mod is to read all the posts. I mean, I do it. I'm sure they could do it as well :) But yeah, using the ticket form, they will have a more organized list of bugs. The reason bugs should also be posted on the forums is that other player will know about them. Take for example, the bug related to extra bags. If people know that there is a bug with equiping additional bags, after you reach the limit of 4, it's more likely that they won't repeat the mistake. (Then again, some people, like me, just love testing bugs :P).

Alrighty, I'm up-to-date with all of these aside from the Jasperwood Mines door issue. That's not so much a typo as a range issue, but I'll most likely have a fix for the next build. :)

New typo. Arcane Council  Path > Curing the Plagued > [18] A Growing Epidemic, Stage 4/5 of 11. The NPC is Kathy, located in Nidaros, near the farm. It should be "why are you brandishing".

And Stage 9 of 11.
