DPS on skill tables

Hey, before making such big changes to skill pages, could you please discuss with other members? I'm not sure that we want to be showing that data in that manner, but it's worth discussing first before making edits. There may be better ways of showing this kind of info.

I'm new to this, my apologies! I just wanted the info for myself and thought I'd share it. I'm open to anything. --Intently (talk) 19:32, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

No worries! Maybe add a new table to the bottom of the page with that info for now and then we can work on a better solution. Iamacyborg (talk) 20:01, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Should I use the same template, or something else? --Intently (talk) 20:05, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Go with the same template for now, we'll tidy it up if we have to. Iamacyborg (talk) 20:22, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Showing this information is not necessarily a bad idea, but we do not want to clutter up the gem stat tables. If you were to show this info, I recommend using a graph so that way the data can be visualized better. —Vinifera7 (talk) 18:13, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

It's definitely not a bad idea, it looks like it'll be really useful data to show, we just need to find the right place for it and the right way to visualise it. What kind of graph do you have in mind? I can't really imagine it as being displayed in graph form. Iamacyborg (talk) 19:25, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

You can represent a set of points as a curve (a line). The x-axis is gem level and the y-axis is whatever type of data you are presenting, such as DPS. —Vinifera7 (talk) 22:46, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Would that really be a better way to visualise the information though? Iamacyborg (talk) 13:04, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

How about a separate table along side the Gem Data table? That way it's clearly related to gem data, but not actually shown in-game, and it's easy to see all the info for a given level. -- Nightblade (talk) 06:29, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
