Hi. On the "Downloadable Content" page, there are a few DLCs missing. If you look at the "Category: DLC" page you'll see four additional DLCs not mentioned in the Downloadable Content page: 'Bitterblack Armour Pack', 'Bonus Pack', and two of the 'Set Out For Adventure' DLCs. Is there a reason these are not mentioned in the Downloadable Content page? Perhaps a section in the page should have Orla's DLCs because I believe the Bitterblack Armour Pack is not found on the PSN or Xbox-store, but rather through Orla.

ArmorStat Template and Templates in General
Hi, so I've been learning how to make templates 'n basically how things work here on a wikia and I've made quite a bit of stuff that needs verification. I was ok enough with just playing around them but Artirtico suggested that I bring it up with the admins so I guess here I am lol.

First, I added a bunch of tables into each Debilitation page, like for example in Poison, that shows all gears that have resistance against said debilitation and further indicates the classes which are able to use them and all other debilitation resistances that they have to make it easier for me to pick my gear. (I like having certain resistances maxed XD). Is it ok if it stays that way on the page? although I admit, I've been slacking on completing the data needed lol.

Then there's the thing about some templates that I've modified (Ones which were not locked) although minor. I changed the template (forgot which one lol) that shows on top of an equipment page to indicate the exact armor/clothing type instead of just armor or clothing.

Lastly, I've made a new template for armor stats, DDArmorStatNew, that kinda formats stuff automatically to ensure uniformity. It's got a bunch of wacky features that may or may not be good server-usage-wise (kinda new to this scripting thing) so I hope you guys can go check the source out if it's good/efficient enough (''hopefully won't kill the server type lol). (Example page > Tattered Mantle) ''

Would've been really great if this wikia supported databases but I'm not sure after googling stuff lol. I've been storing data inside templates then accessing them from other templates to make the automatic formatting/item location/vendor listing features work but I'm not sure if that's the most efficient way to go about it.

Anyways, I type too much... lol. --Kaisinkh (talk) 17:32, July 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * So I've finally hit the template limit within the wikia... the code is just too bloated without the ability to use variables in this environment.


 * I was thinking if it's possible for you to install/implement a variable extension for this wikia so that I can redo all the codings more efficiently. (and hopefully take a chunk out of the usage limit lol").


 * --Kaisinkh (talk) 11:12, July 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ok, after reading up some more on how the limit stacks up I took another long look at the way I coded the templates and redid almost all of them. Seems to have made the template fit into the limit and it now works ok I guess... though a database or a variable extension would be nice lol.

hello.

doing well?

(not fournival, just a gammer).... well here it goes:i want to confirm if there are hidden tresures behind walls, watherfalls, or floors etc. i am not asking to point where they are protectly hidden, just want to know if yes or no there are hidden spots with hidden tresure or no there are not such think. cause i am kind gettin (in the meadle of a soft obsession) very frustrated. cause i try many diferent weapons with diferent tipes of walls and after a era of 1000 dragonforgeds past i still didint conclude. i so far found may drowings carvings and sketches on walls and rocks, found places in with is seen walls falling down or allready falled, and the more i try to have the rigth tools and the right skills, the more the variety of scenarios and theirs aproch makes me spend much time ony setting my dam equipments.... to make tests.... so... (i allready know the answer, but it will be helpfull more people discuss this then just my head and the wink in tit) ... are there tresure hidden and only acessible by especifc tools oor and weapons and  skills?

please check other posts of mine if it helps to turn this into a link of its onwn

Hey there, love the wiki.

I wonder if it is in your possibility to add a "Send" button to the chat, because there is no chance for people to write a message using a browser on android phones (at least not for me; using version 2.something). It would be a great addition!

Missing sections from the Drop-down menu
Heya Obsidian,

I've noticed you've been more active lately so I'd figure ask something of you.

This has been bugging a couple of people, but under the drop-down menu within the weapons section; there are some missing weapon categories. Namely: Maces, Warhammers, and Longbows.

I believe the same thing applies to Dark Arisen as well.

Kraissant (talk) 13:57, September 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * Obsidian, that was what I was afraid of. This wiki has been out for a long time and there must have been a reason for the missing weapons. I'll relay this info to anyone who asks.
 * Thank you for the clarification.

I've added screenshots to two armor pages:

1. http://dragonsdogma.wikia.com/wiki/Grisly_Bracers

2. http://dragonsdogma.wikia.com/wiki/Crimson_Gauntlets

...but their resolution is too high. Are there any width or height tags that would make it possible to adjust the dimensions?

Also, is it possible to delete this page: http://dragonsdogma.wikia.com/wiki/File:Mgs2_raiden.png ? I uploaded the portrait thinking that it'd be used as my avatar, but it ended up in the photo contributions section. I tried replacing it with some Dragon's Dogma related picture, but it didn't really help much. Sorry for the trouble.

Best regards,

Matt

Assistance & File Removal
I answered my own question from the message above (the one regarding dimenstions adjustment) so please ignore it. Still, I'd like to ask you to remove this page: http://dragonsdogma.wikia.com/wiki/File:Mgs2_raiden.png as it serves no purpose.

Thanks for AOTM!
Heya OB,

Just wanted to say thank you for AOTM. It's a big honor to be chosen.

Please let me know if there's anything else that needs help with.

Items Spreadsheet
I saw your nifty spreadsheet and I went to update some of the pages that I've been keeping track of and I noticed a discrepancy in the cost for Chimera Strategy Vol. 2. I'd assumed that the cost for items that cannot normally be bought from merchants were representative of their cost to duplicate at the Black Cat. I double-checked with Mountebank and the cost is 4,687G for that scroll, but your spreadsheet lists the Buy Value as 3,125G. Is there a different source for buying Enemy Strategy Scrolls? Moreover, am I using that field improperly?

Forgeries

 * After seeing your recent update to Badge of Vows 4 it looks like another round of a full set of edits may be in my near future. Once I get my head around the neat Gallery format you used. I'm afraid that most of the 100 BoV pages look like the page for BoV4 did before you edited it. All of those pages now have the duplication fee listed as cost in the info boxes. BoVs are unique in that they are both a quest and an item so coming up with the right format has been somewhat of a work in progress.


 * I think that cost of duplication is good information to have for items, as it can serve to remind people looking up the item that it can be duplicated. If the Item template is used, the information fits under Location (kind of), but without a placemarker, it might not be intuitive to know to place it there.


 * I agree that it's a good idea to keep them separate if for no other reason then because most(all?) non-weapon/armor items that can be bought can also be duplicated. If it's possible, it might be a good idea to add a "Forgery =" line to the Items info box since it won't show if it's not filled in, but anyone wanting to fill in the information would know exactly where to put it. Even if there are actual items designated as forgeries, the game refers to the act of duplicating as creating forgeries.
