Lake Mendalar, Lut Armahn.... - I've never heard about these. Is it your ourn fiction?

Yup. I was actually going to put an Easter Egg in by naming the lake Carvomot (or something...after the prolific spam bot) but I couldn't remember the spelling

Quote from "Archantyrael" »

Lake Mendalar is a blue spot on the Marshland in the map, isn't it?

Yep.

And where are your male wizzard from?

Quote from "Kickin_It" »

I lived in the small town of Lut Armahn in the southern reaches of the mighty Aranoch desert.

I can't recall the time period of this particular fanfic, but you'll notice on the official site everyone's either forgotten about what happened in Diablo II, refuses to believe it, or regards it as a myth.

I was actually banking on the isolation and removed nature of the place where the story begins to have prevented such gossip from fully reaching him (though he does mention that he had heard myths of the Dark Wanderer, etc.) but that explanation works too.

It appears to be right at the beginning of Diablo 3 with the meteor crashing through the church.

Bingo.:cool:

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

I'm assuming minimun damage and amximum damage goes here as well?

Minimum Damage and Maximum Damage are suffixes (-of Performance, -of Evisceration, etc.) However, I realized this morning that I was forgetting the Grinding prefix (max damage based on char lvl) so I could probably throw that in here. Fool's might fit better here than in AR too, you think?

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

Couldn't these be comined? And just call it all mana?

Good call. Light Radius I think is still going to need its own category; it just doesn't really fit anywhere else.

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

Template should now be ready to use. A category also exists for sorting them.

Sweet thanks

OK, so I looked through and categorized the Prefixes, and right now I'm looking at 15 different categories (i.e. Headers). Several of those categories are further broken down, but I'm just planning to use regular bolded text to do that so as not to add more headers. Anyway, here's what I've got and what's in them. Everything look good? Any different suggestions for sorting?

+ Attack Rating
+ Attack Rating, + Attack Rating (Based on Character Level) (which includes the "Fool's" prefix), + Attack Rating and Enhanced Damage
+ Attack Rating and Enhanced Damage vs. Evil
+ Attack Rating and Enhanced Damage vs. Demons, + Attack Rating and Enhanced Damage vs. Undead
+ Elemental Damage
+ Cold Damage, + Fire Damage, + Lighting Damage, + Poison Damage
+ Elemental Resistance
+ Cold Resist, + Fire Resist, + Lighting Resist, + Poison Resist, + Resist All
Enhanced Damage
+ Defense
Enhanced Defense, + Defense (Based on Character Level)
+ Mana
+ Mana, + Mana (Based on Character Level)
+ Light Radius
+ Skill Levels
+ All Skills (for every class) + Individual Trees (for every class)
Mana Gain
Damage Taken Goes to Mana, + Mana After Each Kill
Magic Find
Stamina
+ Max Stamina, + Stamina Regeneration
Monster Flee
Add Sockets
Increased Stack Size

Give me a few minutes

I'm sure there's no rush.

If you want to get the table set up for me sometime in the next few days too that would be cool. I'll probably just categorize and list everything in an outside program so I don't have to do it all at once on the wiki. Then when I do put it on it'll be mostly copy/paste. :cool:

So I guess dNA should do the suffix list the same as the prefix list then so we have it for the collapsible templates and for reference in making the individual lists on the item pages, yeah?

If he does that, then I can start categorizing and listing everything and then we can just plug it all into a table.

Quote from "dNA" »

And how should I go about doing the Suffixes? The same way I did the prefixes?

I don't think we've come to a consensus on how we're wanting to approach the master list still, so you might want to hold off on doing work with the suffixes until we do.

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

Ok, take a look at this:

Axes_(Diablo_II)
Template:Axe_Affixes_(Diablo_II)

The first page shows how it could be placed, and the second is the template, which shall of course be categorized etc. once we're sure if this is what we want. The two tables are also necessary since one table cannot both be sortable and collapsible.

Thoughts?

Looks pretty good to me. One note, you have Arcadian and Lunar on the list for both weapons and Circlets.
So when we get the suffix list up, there will just be another line with an option to show them then?

Quote from "Nektu" »

I'm guessing you're PvM SC, right?

You got it.
EDIT: And ladder.

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

We can create one page listing all affixes for weapons, then simply include it on all weapon pages like {{Weapon Affixes page}} or whatever it'll be called. Quite easy, and of added value to all item pages I think, since we'll still have a page on Affixes that lists every prefix and suffix.

Ah, OK...I was picturing an individual list on each item page, which would be pretty unnecessary and a lot of work. But that's a much better solution. I could go with that. EDIT: I still think that the master list should be updated for user-friendliness and better browsing though.

Double Edit:

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

Can we perhaps divide the affix page? First list them by affix type, then by item type?

I have no problem with that, but it's just going to make the page twice as long again. But if you're cool with that, then I am too.

I've got a list full of characters on West and wouldn't mind having some people to play with. I came back to D2 6 or 7 months ago after I quit WoW and have just been kind of playing it off and on since then. Hopefully having other people to play with will do a better job of keeping me interested By no means am I rich (or even close to it), but I do have a poorly geared/built 82 Lightning Sorc who can provide rushes at least through NM. I haven't been playing much recently, but my schedule's pretty open since I'm not in school and my job sucks. ATM, I'd be around most days after 1 or 2 Mountain Time.

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

I've been looking at the affix page... Why can't we use the same structure we have now, except divide up up with headers instead of having it all in one table? Why design a new template altogether?

Well, it all still comes back to this:

Quote from "Kickin_It" »

It's also incredibly redundant since there has to be a separate entry for each affix for every item it can occur on (so the Item Type column can be sorted). For example, Bronze occurs five times, once each for Amulets, Circlets, Gloves, Rings, and Weapons. I think this makes the list bulky and difficult to read.

If you're already worried about it being too bulky with the different category headers, this will only make it worse.

EDIT:

Quote from "dNA" »

Most people would specifically want to know what can spawn on a certain item.

I don't think that's necessarily true. For things like Jewels and Charms, sure, but that's because the ranges on their affixes are so different. For your example with Axes, it would just list every affix that can occur on any weapon, since as far as I know, there aren't specific affixes that would only occur, for example, on Axes. I know there are a few that can occur on Rods or Wands that don't occur on Swords or Axes, etc...but they're pretty few and far between and I'm not really sure what doing this would add.

Added~

Thanks

You're the best!:D

Quote from "Seth" »

You should write a summary of it to advertise it.

Mmmk.^_^

As a hypothetical backstory for Diablo 3's male Wizard, Redemption of the Vizjerei follows our hero-to-be as he begrudgingly embarks on a journey with a mysterious old man to confront his personal demons in the lands of his childhood and forestall the return of the Burning Hells to Sanctuary. Excerpt:

He lowered his hand from his face and ran it tenderly across the scarred and pitted surface of the old table. “This could be your chance for redemption, son. For setting right the ill deeds you have committed.” So he did know. But how? I slowly lifted my head and peered once more into his glimmering eyes. My lips parted to speak, but again he raised his faintly trembling hand and I was struck dumb. “There is more to your fate than even you know. This journey – if you like to think of it as such – is not one of adventure. Rather, it is one of erudition and deliverance. Your personal salvation, as well as that of the entire mortal realm of Sanctuary, rests in your hands...”

Sure, it's only based off one critique, but that just means we need more people to join the DFWG!:thumbsup:

Quote from "PhrozenDragon" »

I can design the table tomorrow, because now I have to sleep.

Sweet, well if you do that and want to write a little bit of the page, like...

==Prefixes==
===+Attack Rating===
Bronze-Weird (or less if you want...as long as there's a few)

Then I can probably (hopefully) look at what you've done and be able to figure out how to work the table format you made and work on the rest of the page this week. :thumbsup:
