Discord Guide Nexus

A list of the guides posted on discord, so they can be accessed by people who are not on the discord.

Foreward

This is a list of guide links that have been posted on the discord. The purpose of this list is to make information about the game available to people who are not currently on the ACS discord. Many of these links are google docs, and so may need to be entered into a browser manually.

The list has been made with the permission of @Zamori, Prinny God on the discord. If you are a Dev, Elder, Community manager, or any other high authority on the discord, message me and I'll give you contributor status.

Classic Guides

This section contains guides in paragraph form. Some of these are short, some are long, and some are walkthroughs. If the list continues to expand, this section may be split into different sections in the future.

Inaccessible/Confusing/Incomplete/Outdated

This is a list of guides that are outdated, inaccessible to someone outside the discord, confusing and difficult to understand, or incomplete to the point of being hard to place context for. They are included anyways for the sake of completeness, and in the event that someone can make use of the information in them.

OUTDATED: This guide by Ming Na and Dalois is a bit confusing, but has some information on Body Cultivation labels.
