Re: Fourth Edition Player's Guide Errata and FAQ

What about now?
Just kidding
I've just gone through the entire thread, picking out the errata and not the clarifications of certain rules.
Have to say, if this is all the actual errata the book has, that's pretty impressive
============================================================================================
Page 23
“The newcomer was young elf…” should be “The newcomer was [a] young elf…”
Page 36
“Descriptions for non-magical skills can be found in the Skills chapter, p. 182 The Workings of Magic chapter”
Missing a full stop after 182
Page 55
Obsidimen starting WIL is 20 not 10.
Page 129
Last sentence of the Awareness talent, 'Possess' needs to be 'possesses'.
Page 210
“For example. the astral imprint of a magical sword will be shaped like a sword, but its pattern may only occupy the hilt”
The dot after example should be a comma
Page 219
“This usually involve[d] studying the True Pattern”
Should be “This usually involve[s] studying the True Pattern”?
Page 227
“Minor Pattern Items hold[s] knowledge that is related, but not integral to the True Pattern”
The s is redundant
Page 298
The illusionist spell "Send Message" says the range is "Self (see text)"
However the "target" is clearly "a character within line of sight".
Range should therefore be: LOS
Page 357
In description of the Loan Spell
"If the target does not know the Spellcasting talent or skill, he makes a Perception test in place of a Spellcasting test."
This is a legacy from ED1 since there's no more Spellcasting skill in further editions.
Page 375
“The [character] makes the appropriate test, announcing the result after rolling the appropriate dice”
Should that be “The [player] makes the appropriate test…”?
Page 376
“the Initiative test result does not actually change.[.]”
The second full stop is not required
Page 393 (Scatter Example)
“with a result of 5. The flask shatters five feet [beyond the target].”
Whilst not technically incorrect, it would be more correct to say it scattered five feet south west of the target
Page 393
“The flask shatters five feet beyond the target. [The flask shatters], spreading flaming oil across the floor, but not otherwise having any effect”
The bracketed text is not required because we’ve just been told the flask shatters.
