An idea for charts

	==An idea for charts==		==An idea for charts==
	Along the lines of all the damage charts you've been making, what do you think of the idea of making a comparative damage chart, either for [[weapon]] or [[artifact weapon]]? It would be a great way to actually back up assertions like "Grayswandir is the best weapon in the game" or "Snickersnee and Excalibur are about the same," which have been on the wiki forever. I'd do it myself, but I don't know how to make those pretty charts. Anyway, just a thought I had... -[[User:Ion frigate\|Ion frigate]] 09:32, July 7, 2010 (UTC)		Along the lines of all the damage charts you've been making, what do you think of the idea of making a comparative damage chart, either for [[weapon]] or [[artifact weapon]]?

			:<p>A great idea (could name the page "[[Comparison of artifact weapons]]" and include a few nonartifact high damage things, like a [[mattock]], [[crysknife]], etc), though something that's been bugging me about that (for another page I had in mind) is artifacts that have a chance of [[Vorpal blade\|instant death]]. It's so quirky it makes it incredibly hard to rate (though it is indeed possible).</p><p>I was hoping of going around and making a spreadsheet that compares the damage of small/large, to try and tell, statistically speaking, which is the best (version one would almost certainly exclude things like that). This would also correctly rate, say, [[Trollsbane]] as being ever-so-slightly better than a normal [[long sword]]. (Basically, it's a weighted average, with the weight being the "encounter level" or whatever it's called of the monsters).</p><p>Odd things like [[magic resistance]] or [[automatic searching]] would be outright impossible, however.</p> [[User:Feagradze\|Feagradze]] 10:13, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

			: Also: it's not really all that hard, it's just annoying, if that makes any sense. Wikipedia has a [[wikipedia:Math markup\|great explanation]] of the <pre><math></math></pre> command. If you get something wrong, though, boy does it give some scary error messages (though they're harmless) in ''flaming red text.''<br>I'll get around to finishing those off probably within a week.
