While ideally the UI should be intuitive enough to to require a help page (who reads them anyway?), there are a few things that might not be obvious to users.

Loot game structure

To understand how loot works in the game it is good to have a mental picture of how it's spawn modelled. Each zone usually has two, what we call "overworld areas". For example for the Ravager storyline that will be The Forbidden Grove and and Faithless thicket. The overworld areas has connected dungeons. Dungeons can be outside (e.g. Imperial Gardens) and inside (e.g. Kaeula's Rest). Dungeons can have "injectables" and overworld areas can have "Overworld POIs" - certain features that can be attached to different dungeons and overworld areas across different rolls. Items, thusly come from: (world) bosses and mini-bosses, injectables, overworld POIs, dungeons, locations, vendors or as a world drop (we refer to these as "drop references"). A world drop is when an item can spawn randomly anywhere in the biome. A location is what you usually see in-game at the top right above the mini-map. Location and dungeon are often interchangeable because each dungeon is also a location but not each location is a dungeon, because some are overworld areas.
