Talk:Monster frequency

I have been using:

Name	Frequency
very rare	1
rare	2
uncommon	3
common	4
very common	5

when filling in the monster templates, though this probably does not agree with the system others have been using and it should be standardised before we attempt to add anything in. -- SGrunt 01:28, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

I linked the monster template to this page so curious folk can see what frequency is all about. IMHO, the names add nothing, whereas the number is at least meaningful (frequency 5 really is 5 times more frequent than frequency 1). We don't, for example, use names for experience points granted ("not much", "some", "a bunch", "loads"). --Jayt 15:25, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Indeed, saying "frequency: 2/5" or "frequency: 5/5" would be a more exact way of documenting it. --ZeroOne 16:27, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
