Talk:Weapons (by requirement)

From TheKolWiki

I'm only a n00b so do what you will to this page :) --Ion42 16:45, 27 July 2006 (CDT)

• How exactly does this differ from Weapons (by power), other than the ice sickle being at the bottom of the list? --Quietust 16:54, 27 July 2006 (CDT)
  • It appears something went wrong when I submitted the page, fixed now. The difference is slight, I admit, but i separated Muscle and Moxie requirements as well as weapons without requirements. If you feel this page is unnecessary, feel free to delete it, it was just something i missed when deciding what to pull from Hagnks. --Ion42 17:20, 27 July 2006 (CDT)
• I personally don't see much of a use for this page, but it doesn't hurt to have it around. My only concern would be if it doesn't get updated very often and ends up misleading people who think it is up to date. --Deadgoat 19:35, 27 July 2006 (CDT)
• It used to be that power and requirement were basically equivalent, as the formula for requirement was (power - 30)/2. With the latest wave of weapons, Jick has deviated from the old formula. As the requirement is probably more important than the power (at least for ascenders, who are the large majority of KoL players), I think it makes sense to go with Weapons by requirement as the primary table, especially since deviations tend to occur in the lower end of the power scale. I'm not sure what to do with Weapons by Power; maintain it or delete it. I'm leaning towards deletion, but am wavering. On hats pants and pants, everything still adheres to the old formula, but we might have to go through the same decision on them in the future. --Gymnosophist 18:28, 23 August 2006 (CDT)

Is this page being maintained, or is Weapons (by power)? I know it was recently editited (20070121) but the power (and req.) of the grave robbing shovel is wrong and I don't see the rusty grave robbing shovel listed at all. --John. 07:47, 3 February 2007 (CST)

I also don't see flaming juggler's balls on the list. But still, it is nice being able to look up info on requirements, when you're trying to plan for an ascension.--Teegers 16:15, 26 February 2007 (CST)

A vast number of items is missing on this page... Just comparing the Moxie Weapons with the Weapons (by power) page yielded 15 missing weapons. --Popovitsj 11:40, 13 March 2007 (CDT)

Gah

This page is ridiculously out of date, it's almost impossible to update it, there's just way too many things to fix. Any ideas for a quick way of getting it back on track? EliteJeff 14:03, 11 July 2007 (CDT)

Well, I've been working on updating this and all of the other charts with the new NS13 stuff (although my contributions don't show in the page's history for some reason). It's not at all impossible to update it. I've been going through Locations and updating the charts item-by-item, but if you're only interested in this chart, just comb the Weapons category for new items and add them. Most items have the correct categories already. --Demyx (talk)

That's what i've been doing (updating other charts with new things), I just want to get this one into shape too. I guess it's not impossible, it just takes a lot of work. There are more than 30 missing weapons, it needs to be linked, the format needs to be changed, etc. It will take a long while to fix all of it. EliteJeff 15:17, 11 July 2007 (CDT)

Nevermind, it was surprisingly easy :P I took away the 'weapons without requirements' list because it seemed like a waste, you could see all those sorts of weapons easily by simply scrolling down to the bottom of each of the three lists. Well, i'm done here then. EliteJeff 16:09, 11 July 2007 (CDT)
