Wiki Update
(Shhhhh... don't tell Peign)

Dual Official and Unofficial wiki thread - post here with comments, suggestions, content critiques, etc... for either wiki









Official Wiki (aka EZ Wiki)
Official Wiki Update Thread - Post here or PM Chunka for suggestions or updates.
Akkadius has the powers to add users




Unofficial Wiki (aka Darpey's EZ Wiki)
Updates have been nearly non-existent in the past month or so, which is good... meaning the wiki is in pretty good shape.

I just recently updated Hateborne's 2-11-15 Caster Changes in several of the articles

Articles that need work listed below, generally in order of importance:

And of course, if you see something inaccurate or lacking... fix it Smiley

On "frequently asked questions" sections...getting through locked doors...an easier way to get through a locked door is to use an illusion item....click item...run at door until you run into it and keep running....click the illusion off...pop through the door....if it doesn't work the first time...rinse and repeat

And contrary to what some might tell you, this is not an exploit.....or at least it wasnt live. When we pointed this out to devs back in 99 they replied that it was working as intended. One guide even "named" it, stating "It's ok to use your skeleton key" (since it was almost always done using AoN).

Orthanos - thanks, added your bit to FAQ  Smiley

Chunka - lol to devs circa 1999 being okay with "skeleton key"

- on that note though, the monk's signature Feign Death pull wasn't intended either, but the illusion door skip is clearly a glitch... guess the devs just didn't want to mess with such a gaping glitch hole.

Hate - Noticed you joined the Wiki and did some updates, I sincerely appreciate the assistance with spell updates.  I haven't been around much recently, but it's a bear to keep them up to date.

Thanks again Smiley

I'll be backfilling a LOT of that information this week or next. I used it so heavily as a resource to update my internal docs that I might as well fully flesh it out.

This is a crazy petty request, but could some one please sort the spells on class pages by drop tier, then alphabetically? If not, I can do it but it's an organizational thing that makes reading it 100x easier.

That's good to hear, some of it wasn't clear from the descriptions, or tough to find, etc.

If Warbash doesn't beat me to it, I can look tonight if I get the chance, I had it all in an Excel sheet, although I can't say with any certainty that I saved it  Cry

Darpey and I talked about ways to better present the info on the spells but neither of us are wizards at Wiki's, anyone with a better way to do so, definitely, have at it Smiley

Easiest way I can see is to either
1) add a new field specifically for tier, or
2) add a blip before the location name in "drops from" table.

imma try some stuff in the chanter page right now, will update in a few

Ok, so I went ahead and did that all. just adding the tier number in front of the tier name works beautifully, however to show the list sorted 'properly' from the very start, you have to put it into the wiki in the right order. SO. I did that, for enchanter, and it took me like an hour to do it, and I'm not doing it again for the other pages. Although if I get bored this weekend and no one else has done it, I may write a script to do it for me.
TLDR enchanter spell list is pretty now

Mine is the drill that will pierce the heavens! Or at least the next tier.

Filthy casual? Yep, that's me!

using your tier structure it took me 1 minute to do 1 character on Darpeys. just click the header and it sorts it Smiley as it has what Hate posted but user has to do that when they view it.

When doing this, make sure to keep the bracketed links in-tact. If you change them even by one character it breaks the link

Example:
[[Plane of Dragons]] ORIGINAL: GOOD
[[T1/T2 Plane of Dragons]] MODIFIED: BAD - broken link ("T1/T2" inside brackets)
T1/T2 [[Plane of Dragons]] MODIFIED: GOOD - working link ("T1/T2" outside brackets)

The sortable tables make a world of difference.
