Yes, the Glossary will be great for players looking for term definitions.
I encourage all to share what terms they've had trouble with.
I'd also extend that - to whatever else you think may be included in the FAQ.

Frequency - used in describing how fast a monster attacks - it's the number of milliseconds between attacks, for example: a monster with a frequency of 1000 will attack 1 time every 1000 milliseconds, which is equal to 1 attack every second
Unique - In FT, this is used to describe an item which can only be acquired if you're not already holding one. Several players may obtain this item, but any given individual can only have 1 at a time.

also noticed PvE is listed as "Player vs. Enemy" - no real problem, but this is generally understood as "Player vs. Environmrnt" and used as a synonym for PvM

I thought it meant "Player vs Everyone", and meant all combat in general.
