Support Gem Pages

Support Gems should have individual pages for discussion of their varied uses I think. Especially the really interesting ones like Trap and Totem. Ionface 06:40, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Agreed, each support gem will need to have it's own page, which details how the gem levels alongside possible best uses. Skill pages should also have a section about possible good support gems for that skill. Iamacyborg 17:44, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Skill Navbox

Just thinking whether or not it'd be worth creating a navbox for skills to insert in all the relevant pages, anyone have an opinion on it? My only misgivings are that it might end up being pretty huge and slightly complicated as a result. Iamacyborg 15:21, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

I think it just needs a link back to this page, and this page needs more categories and information. Ionface 11:24, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

I'll have a think about the best way to set something like that up, and possibly play around with a navbox as well just to see what it might look like, they're pretty easy to set up. Iamacyborg 14:15, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Skill Videos

Instead of an image thumbnail, it might be worth having a short 10 or so second video demonstrating the skill on relevant pages. Similar to what the Sacred Wiki does http://www.sacredwiki.org/index.php5/Sacred_2:Clustering_Maelstrom Anyone have any opinions on the matter? Iamacyborg (talk) 18:13, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

I am a fan of video on wiki, and there could also be animated gifs in the place of the static images we have now. Ionface (talk) 15:52, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Compatibility Matrix ?

I think we should have a compatibility matrix between Support Gems and Skill Gems. This way it's easy for people to know what they can link up. Is this already on the wiki somewhere? Should it have it's own page or be part of this page? --AnnanFay (talk) 05:24, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

I just uploaded a spreadsheet of all the skills relative to what attributes they need(red gems needing agi or int etc). I will start working on something like this tomorrow. --Battlemaster (talk) 20:46, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

I incorporated your spreadsheet data into some new sortable tables for the active skills. I left the type out because I think these qualifiers can be included as part of a compatibility matrix like AnnanFay was talking about. --Angelflonne (talk) 23:48, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

The Iron Grip (and Point Blank) support gem links to the passive skill and not to the actual support gem site, but that's a fault of the template --Goliath (talk) 08:06, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Gem values

Current gem values are way off. I'm in process of fixing the ones I've personally leveled (18 total, currently). I suspect the values won't be very accurate for some time. --Xhopesfal24 (talk) 20:35, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

History

I'd not expect that the information about changes from (older) patches are really that useful/neccessary to put them explicit on each itemized aspect of the game, especially since these informations are already (browsable + seekable) available in the specific patch notes pages. --Mr.Cee (talk) 12:16, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I've already added the version history to every skill and i'm not going to remove them again (if everyone thinks like that feel free to remove it). I know that these informations are not that important that's why i'm going to collapse the table if they are getting too long. --Goliath (talk) 12:20, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
