That's a lot of speculation and I don't agree with all of it.

I don't think skills work like that. with 400+ abilities, I don't think they'll be spread over just 12 catagories. We already know there will be multiple magic schools, divine magic schools, unarmed, etc.

Intelligence = purple bar (magic damage, Mana regen)

Intelligence might be blue, due to mana often being blue in games.

underneath money is inventory space so i think maybe constitution skill tree contributes to carry space...

That might be weight, because the inventory system will work like in Diablo and Path of Exile, so items will take up physical space and it's up to the player to move items around to fit as much as possible. Weight will certainly affect what you can carry aswell according to the link below, but inventory won't work like in WoW where every item takes up 1 slot.

top left of skill tree we can see 24/60 points unlocked (which makes me think lvl 60 is max lvl) and 24 points assigned (which makes me think it costs 2 for each skill point)

I think it's:
Points unlocked: Amount of points unlocked / point cap.
Points assigned: amount of points assigned / amount of points unlocked.

unlock skill point! 1000KP? (KP = Kill points most likely shown at top right with the book)

KP = Knowledge Point. Don't call them kill points, because knowledge is gained from more than just killing.

Linux will be supported at release according to the FAQ: https://fracturedmmo.com/faq/ (5th question).

The latest spotlight: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/522/feature-spotlight-3-the-knowledge-system

It's still being developed. Alpha coming next year.

The best spotlight so far, lots of information about what I consider to be the core part of every game. Really loving the way you're approaching character progression. With 400+ abilities and 6 tasks for each, it will take many months to get everything if you're a completionist. Getting hyped here.

Alright then, question time!

The core strengths and weaknesses of your character are set when you create it by choosing its attribute, and don’t change during the course of gameplay: you’re effective and can join complex PvE and PvP scenarios from Day 1.

I know you're going to talk more about attributes in the future, but I still want to ask this question. It says "attribute", does that mean you can choose only one attribute or is it possible to make a hybrid?

Exploration. Unlike most MMOs you’ve likely played, a new character on Fractured is not only unaware of combat and magical arts, but also oblivious of the geography of the world it lives in. This ignorance is reflected in the world map, which presents itself as an empty canvas. If you want to become a knowledgeable explorer, you need to travel through every region of the world with some parchment and a pen at hand, taking a little time to write down what you’re seeing. Whenever you document a new location, it becomes permanently visible (in detail) on your world map, and you’re awarded with Knowledge Points according to the importance of what you’ve recorded.

How exactly does it this work? We draw the world map on an ingame map? Or does it unlock automatically? Can we trade/sell maps? How exactly does cartography work?

Relics. Relics are rare pieces of the lost knowledge of Elysium that have survived the Fracture and can be recovered from the most remote locations and dangerous circumstances. When consumed, they can trigger the discovery of a new spell or raise the strength of one you know above its maximum theoretical level – a power we’re sure the most competitive of you will crave to master. And oh, they give Knowledge Points too, of course.

Sounds much like holocrons in SWTOR to me, am I correct?

Once an ability is Discovered, you get to know everything about it: what it does, what’s the cost to use it, and – mostly importantly – what are the tasks that have to be performed to be able to start studying it. Some examples of such tasks are:

@teeboned said in More News Coming Next Week!:

Hmmm, the quests on the foundation page have been updated to include an 8th news sharing available, but the new news isn't posted yet. So... maybe sometime later today it will be here?

I noticed aswell. Doesn't mean the news will drop right away though. Last spotlight was released like 5 days after the update to the foundation quests.

@holyavengerone said in A compilation of everything we know about Fractured.:

Massive amount of work coming for you @Vengu, I bet (or hope, really, I hope, not bet), with the upcoming knowledge system dev blog!!

I'm ready for it. It will all depend on how many questions Prometheus is willing to answer though.

First alpha wave is scheduled for 2018.

Here's what we know about dungeons: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/145/dungeons-guild-info/3 There might be a bit more in my compilation thread.

@chrightt said in More News Coming Next Week!:

lol, hope it is actually development progress and sneak peaks.

It's a spotlight about the knowledge system.

UPDATE!

4. RACES AND PLANETS:

• All races can ride mounts.
• This should be obvious but yes, all races can PvP and become gankers.
• There are no limits to what demons can do when they invade other planets.
• Some information about the beastmen primal form.

5. EXPLORATION AND SURVIVAL:

• Mounts provide carrying and stamina consumption advantages.

10. GUILDS:

• Mixed guilds will be alignment-restricted.

Welcome! You can always play an evil beastman, or your friends can play good demons.

You're making a lot of assumptions. Let's wait for @Prometheus's answer first.

@mikey14117 said in Exile:

@33hp planet? I thought it was just your village

Nope, it's planet. Check my links above.

There will be guild versus guild warfare yes. I suggest you read my thread: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/266/a-compilation-of-everything-we-know-about-fractured?page=1 I compiled a ton of information there.

This is what we know so far:

@logain said in Multiple Races Guild and Bonuses for Race-Restricted Guild:

I kind of wonder how beastmen and demons can be in the same Guild. At least lore and even gameplay wise. That's going to be an interesting concept when we see it!

It's probably based on alignment. I don't see why a good demon wouldn't be able to join a beastman guild, especially when the demon has been banished from his own planet.

Yes: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/145/dungeons-guild-info/3

And that didn't change after the release of guild profiles: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/414/hero-and-guild-creation-now-live-in-the-foundation/5?page=1

Another question & answer from Discord:

Q: Is there an objective to demons invading other worlds besides causing havoc/pvp? As in would it be possible for demons to steal merchants trade items or deny other worlds a world boss/event?

A: There are no limits to what demons can do when they invade other planets. A demon player or guild can give itself any kind of objective - be it pillaging villages, murdering and looting, or disrupting PvE events. The only areas safe from demon activities are the ones on Arboreus entirely closed off to characters with Evil alignment.
