Difficulty restrictions

Alot of the notes being added state propechies are restricted to normal difficulty only. While this might be correct for some propechies it certainly isn't for all of them, they're simply restricted to the same difficulty as where the prophecy was created. twitticles (talk) 13:32, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Chain Prophecy table

Can someone make a "sort-able" table for it? Is kinda ... long and messy table for that category, make it sort by type so that ppl can check the type of prophecy chain easier, thx --Vironlawck (talk) 14:28, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

What do you mean "type of prophecy chain"? — Freeeeez aka TheFrz – 14:36, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Seal Costs

How should we go on about documenting the Seal Cost of Prophecies? Maybe adding a new column for this critical information? I will add Seal Cost information to the notes until someone more knowledgeable about this wiki stuff can make more constructive contribution! --Shmaobro

Reforged Bonds

Did somebody else receive five Orbs of Fusing upon completing the Reforged Bonds Prophecy? Want more confirmation before moving it to another table. --Shmaobro (talk) 12:57, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Got 5x Orbs of Fusing OgreMages (talk) 09:51, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the confirmation, will specify the note and move it to the right table. --Shmaobro (talk) 11:43, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
Looks like I was able to specify the amount but unable to move it to the right table. Every time I tried remove the entry and place it somewhere else through simple copy pasting in the source the server "couldn't handle the request". Can somebody else take a shot at it or tell me what I am doing wrong? I paid attention to keep the table structure intact. --Shmaobro (talk) 12:05, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Act starter restriction

Hi,

I had the feeling you'd get some act related prophecies more easily if you're in the act where you've to do it. Apparently, cf. some notes in the wiki, some prophecies are even fully restricted to a specific act to start.

Do we have any more clues atm ? It may be an important information to state in the intro. Until recently i almost kept getting my prophecies from act 4 merciless the last days. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Harest (talkcontribs) 03:34, 9 June 2016‎ (UTC)

For what its worth it might not be depending on the current act but character level. With my character around level 50 I get way more Prophecies for Act 3 Cruel than for Act 2 Cruel although I did not reach Act 3 Cruel yet. Mark already answered a related question, maybe he is willing to clear things more up? --Shmaobro (talk) 17:08, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
I asked it but the questions were skipped unfortunately, so we don't know. But the more i played, the more it seems to be indeed related to the act you're in for many prophecies. - —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Harest (talkcontribs) 14:36, 14 June 2016‎ (UTC)

Act doesn't matter, only difficulty, according to Chris Wilson -- Magus424 (talk) 22:09, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Reward: Unique section

The Reward: Unique section is completely screwed now, making us have to search for what type of mob we are looking for separately. Whoever edited it should not be allowed to do so anymore —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Csogaki (talkcontribs) 05:39, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

Prophecies listed as items

Every Prophecy has its sealed/item version, and the item tag does work for them. However, in trying to preview the entire page to have each prophecy be an item (and thus be consistent with most of the rest of the wiki) instead of just a link I get an error that says: "The pathofexile.gamepedia.com page isn’t working pathofexile.gamepedia.com is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500." This has me wondering if the fact that it won't show the preview means it would have too much of a load to feasibly implement on the page. Has anyone else gotten that error? If so, how did you go about ensuring that the page could be loaded? —Domo (talk) 09:30, 05 July 2016 (UTC)

There are issues when there are too many templates in large tables, that's why they are just ordinary links. If you read the history of the page you'll notice that the item links were removed at some time because of the difficulties in loading the page. Similar issues were had with Cadiro's offer and you can read about it in its talk page. --Illviljan (talk) 09:44, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

SMW rework

So how do people think it's best to approach this? The tables currently have some extra nodes regarding, most of it is covered by the prophecy description itself, but it might be a good idea to add this to the item template so we can show this on the pages or so. (say notes=

I think redoing this is more pressing now that they are permanent and that the sealing cost on this page needs to be changed anyway.

Ideas? --OmegaK2 (t|c) 15:05, 2 September 2016 (UTC)
