The New Factions

I came across a pathing low-poly iksar model in forest of the fallen named "a militant requisitioner". I killed him with Imbued Weapon of the Ancients and took hits on two new factions Dragonforgers and Administrators of The Empire. Nathasar (talk) 21:14, 21 October 2023 (EDT)


The Highkeep Notes

note 1: [This note appears to have ben written by a steady and skilled hand]

... trying to pickpocket my room key! What in the High King's name is happening to the court lately? Is everyone insane? I hid the key in the little room I rent by the library. It seems safest... //

Math?

Are you trying to figure out how to do calculations with wiki-markup? - Rari Talk 03:59, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

heh yeah I was. haven't quite figured it out. Nathasar 05:48, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

The wikimedia article on calculation should help get you started. If you want to do something specific and can't figure out how how, let me know. - Rari Talk 18:45, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
What I can't figure out is how to display formulae. Nathasar 20:42, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Something like 1 + 1 = 2 ?- Rari Talk 23:11, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

more like "e, to the power of i times pi, plus 1 equals 0." Nathasar 02:35, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
What are you trying to solve for? Calculation and Parser Functions are enabled, but I don't understand what you're trying to actually do. - Rari Talk 19:24, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
trying to make it draw functions properly. this way I don't have to type it all out word for word, but actually make it display as it appears in math textbooks. Nathasar 04:16, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

Gishna's Scribing

The barriers of protection have been erected. One each in the doorway leading to the ritual chamber, and the doorway which leads to the disciple. I have have tied the energies of the barrier protecting the ritual chamber to myself. However, in the unlikely situation that I fall, I have chosen to tie the barrier protecting the disciple to that of his ritualists. Should they succeed in their summoning, the bond will be passed to that which they call to this world.

Trying to organize my bank items

this project was started on 24 december 2009.

Adding items

Please use the item format template when adding new items. You can find more information at Format for adding new items and Template:Itemstats/doc, and looking at other properly added items may also be beneficial. If you need more help than that, please let me know here or contact me on SoD's IRC channel. - Rari Talk 15:51, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Did I do that right? Dusty Bark Band Nathasar 02:51, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
Nope. Check the (dif) - maybe it'll give you a better idea. And for equipment, I'd really suggest using fomelo2wiki - it's explained better in the Format for adding new items. And it didn't show up because items don't normally show up immediately anymore (it will on the next purge, it's just not immediate) - if you need it to, click "Known Loot" on the mob or the category Dropped by X on the item, hit  Edit  and resave it (if it doesn't already exist, just hit the 'Special Category' in page formatting types to add the right template.)- Rari Talk 04:55, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Tried out fomelo2wiki. worked great on stuff I could wear, but copy and paste had to suffice for stuff I couldn't. --Nathasar 06:11, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Just fixed your Valorium Crafted Parrying Dagger, you may want to check the (diff), the things you were having trouble adding were under the wrong names 'delay' instead of 'atkdelay' and 'damagereduction' instead of 'dmgreduction' ~ try copy fields from Template:Itemstats/doc. Laurane 06:56, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Ahh! thanks a bunch :) --Nathasar 13:13, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

??

Steak? - Rari Talk 00:07, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

still working on it. it's the one where you turn in minotaur meat. kinda had some RL drama and it interupted me.

additions

I'll try and learn how to properly made additions by reading the articles you suggested. Right now I just have a lot to put up in wiki and not enough time to do it. By the way, is there a program that splits 1.88 GB logs into notepad-manageable bits? Nathasar 07:15, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Grab Notepad++. There's a link on my userpage. - Rari Talk 07:33, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

I downloaded it. It looks very complex! It also seems to not want to load my 1.88 GB log. I'll use this patch time to tinker with it. Nathasar 20:59, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

It's very usable, even if you don't want to make use of its more advanced features. The tabs are nice, and it's always been a lot faster at opening my logs. 1.88 gigs is a bit silly though, and you made need to just chillax and give it time to load. I'd suggest, in the future, breaking up your log file (like, once mine gets too big, I add a number after last underscore in the file name, so they're sequential)- Rari Talk 16:30, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Hood of a Fallen Bloodfire

Ok, you added Hood of a Fallen Bloodfire rather poorly. I tried to fix what I could, with a little guesswork involved. Please take a look at the dif from the changes. The <!--{{subst:ItemstatsRaceALL}} {{subst:ItemstatsClassALL}} {{subst:ItemstatsALLALL}} --> line is in the template as a source you might want to facilitate in the future - using {{subst:ItemstatsALLALL}} will add all of the class and race information for ALL ALL items. This is guide for fomelo2wiki still being written, but you may find the later portions on adding sources helpful, even unfinished as it is. Also, when adding items, please pay attention to the capitalization of the words - item and NPC names should always match what is given in game. - Rari Talk 16:30, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Adding spells

See Template:Spelltable. You can download the Spells Parser . - Rari Talk 00:34, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

making a namespace

how do I make my own namespace? I'd like to create my sandbox so I don't have to publicize all my little additions one at a time. Nathasar 04:47, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

You already have one, User:Nathasar is the main page of your namespace. Anything you want to add to your namespace should be User:Nathasar/Pagename. So if you want a sandbox, you might use something like User:Nathasar/Sandbox. You might just want to add {{User Subpages}} to User: Nathasar, it will create a list of all of the pages in your namespace to make it easier to navigate. - Rari Talk 14:06, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
hm, will try to get user subpages to work. Thanks! Nathasar 16:48, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
forgot tl doesn't show parameters. use {{User Subpages|Nathasar}} Edit: I just did it for you. Hope you don't mind. - Rari Talk 18:28, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
thanks :) that's useful, I like it Nathasar 10:45, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

[shir blade]

Freeing the Vahirs

You say, 'How can I free Vahir Ghan?'

a traveller says, 'Once I have retempered the blades, you must head to Misery. He is imprisoned somewhere inside, held in stasis by the flickering wisps of light which litter the zone. Eliminate the lights, then unlock his restraints with a madness-cursed key carried by some of the stronger denizens of the area. When you do that, place the blade in his left hand and give him a Mark from Lyjan. Those things together will free him.'

You say, 'How can I free Vahir Rahkahl?'

a traveller says, 'Once I have retempered the blades, you may turn your thoughts to Rahkahl. He is held in the Plane of Torment, tortured by the Fleshrotter brothers. Drive the Fleshrotters away, then unlock his restraints. While you do that, place the Shir Blade in his right hand and give him a Mark from Lyjan. That should free him. You have two of those things already. As for the key, any follower of Sivyana can be found carrying one, though the most powerful minions in the plane itself are by far the easiest places to find them. If you cannot attack them--for whatever reason--I'm told that certain minions of Tarhyl also carry keys captured from Sivyana's minions, deep in the First Ruins.'

Now its time to collect the keys

The key to free Vahir Ghan, Key of Madness seems to be an uncommon drop from any mob in Halls of Misery below the a clawing soul
The key to free Vahir Rahkahl, Key of Pain seems to be an uncommon drop from any sivakian in First Ruins, or mob in PoTorment


Vahir Ghan can be found at -565, -20 in Halls of Misery in the room under The First Watcher, hand him either Shir Blade, the Key of Pain, and a mark from Lyjan

  • In order to free Vahir Ghan, all of the a watchlights must be dead

This unconscious vah is shackled to the floor.
You unlock Ghan's shackles, place the sword in his left hand, and lay the Mark around his neck. It begins to glow.
Your faction standing with Vah Rehn Survivors has gotten better!
Vahir Ghan begins to cast a spell.

Vahir Ghan fades away.

Vahir Rahkahl can be found at +505, +230 in the Plane of Torment, hand him either Shir Blade, the Key of Pain, and a mark from Lyjan

This unconscious vah is shackled to the floor.
You unlock Rahkahl's shackles, place the sword in his right hand, and lay the Mark around his neck. It begins to glow.
Your faction standing with Vah Rehn Survivors has gotten better!
Vahir Rahkahl begins to cast a spell.

Vahir Rahkahl fades away.

Head back and talk to the traveller to recieve your new Standard of the Vahir

Note: Have room in your inventory for Vahir Banner

You say, 'Hail, a traveller'
a traveller says, 'You have done well, Nilaat. The Vahir may not speak much, but they are grateful nonetheless--as am I, after a fashion.' The traveller hands you a rolled-up piece of cloth. 'The second Vahir wanted me to give you this.'
You have completed a quest. [The Trapped Vahir]
You receive Vahir Banner from a traveller.

  • [D1] Who are the Vahir, anyway?

You say, 'Who are the Vahir, anyway?'

The traveller shakes her head. 'You'll have to hear that from them.'

Find and hail either Vahir.

You say, 'Hail, Vahir Ghan'
Vahir Ghan says, 'We thank you for rescuing us. I trust the traveller has given you the banner?'

  • [D1] Yes, she has. Are you working for her?
  • [D2] What are the Vahir?
  • [D3] What was your like like, before you were summoned?
  • [D4] I sensed something strange about the sword I used to free you.

You say, 'I sensed something strange about the sword I used to free you.'
Ghan looks you over, 'I suppose you did, at that. You are not and can never be Vahir, but perhaps it would do good to help you forge the blade of one. You have certainly done enough in the service of the vah to have earned it.'

  • [D1] What do I have to do to forge my own Shir blade?

You say, 'What do I have to do to forge my own Shir blade?'
Vahir Ghan says, 'To forge the blade, you will need to seek out the things that are the antithesis of all you believe. It is that which will make your instrument. Only by understanding what you hate and remaking it into something foul can you begin to understand the larger picture. Go to the City of Mercy, for all the pieces can be found there. The shawl of a righteous worshipper, the threads of which will form the grip. Soothing magic from a pure water elementals, the torture of which will fuel the enchantment. A righteous gem from the most favored of Althuna, fit for the pommel, and an ingot of merciful-metal from the elite of the guards to form the blade. Forge these into your weapon and then bring the result to me.'

Your journal has been updated. [Shir Blade]


Are you trying to give me a nervous breakdown this week?

Gorenzath - Rari Talk 05:03, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

heheheh when I put that stuff in my browser crashed, so I just put in the essentials and vowed to put it back in later. That was the week Novus booted me from the guild. I'll get the full thing on there in a bit. Nathasar 00:12, 24 September 2010 (UTC)


Anklet of Dancing Flames

What are you trying to do here? Edit: Let me know when you can (replying here is fine) but I'm rolling back the edit for now. - Rari Talk 07:34, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

I successfully made it link to Dawnfire's page. Nathasar 09:07, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
No. You didn't. You've removed the link that was there to Dawnfire's page. I reverted your edit so its linking properly again. Were you trying to remove Ashwynd from the loot table? - Rari Talk 10:44, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Ashwynd is a piece of the whole Dawnfire event. Ashwynd doesn't drop loot at all, I don't think. I commented it out for now until I can confirm the whole usefulness of using the [mob1=] and [mob2=] tags in Anklet's writeup. Crest of the Ceaseless doesn't include Ashwynd in _its_ writeup. Should it? Edit: It looks good now, anyways. For some reason the Anklet just wasn't showing up on Dawnfire's loot list, and now it is. I thought it was those tags, but you used them just fine. I'm happy with it now, ima leave it alone :)Nathasar 17:54, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

outdated formats

what needs to be done to make the outdated format for items up-to-date? Nathasar 10:24, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't know what you're asking (or what answer you think you've found.) You might find this useful - User:Rari/fomelo2wiki. - Rari Talk 21:09, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
I found the difference in the change history of the greaves linked above. I'll take a look at fomelo2wiki too though Nathasar 04:37, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Sorting items in a category

isn't there a way to list all chest pieces wearable by shadowknight and sort them by AC? Nathasar 19:20, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Here ya go. I had a bit of an 'experiment' to add this table to all of the equipment categories. Unfortunately, the results tend to exceed the limitations of the application (~225), making the script useless for site-wide use, and that is without many (in this case almost half!) of the items converted into the current standard format. GM-Only items are excluded from these results. - Rari Talk 23:03, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
thank you Rari :) awesome Nathasar 23:27, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

table moved here: User:Nathasar/Sandbox

Community portal

Trying to figure out what happened to the formatting guidelines/policy pages in the community portal during the upgrade. In the meantime, please don't create pointless pages in there :( - Rari Talk 21:42, 1 October 2011 (EDT)

  • okay, sorry. thought it was something completely nonexistant to begin with. Nathasar 22:32, 1 October 2011 (EDT)

Spam

Please don't create talk pages for spambot pages. Jumbers and I do several sweeps a day for them (I just happened to sleep in today.) We block the accounts as they post and delete the pages. But when you create talk pages on them, have to go back and delete those as well. :P - Rari Talk 16:52, 1 December 2011 (EST)

  • Sorry. What if I messaged y'all about them instead? OOOOORRRRR what if we tied in the wiki's user database to the forum database? That way, in order to make a new account, y'gotta be registered on the forum? Nathasar 22:57, 2 December 2011 (EST)

Bloodied Note

Randomly happened upon a bloodied note and noticed the blurb about the ethereal metal block. Was thinking it might be a reference for a certain sized ghost metal ingot. I don't have all of the pieces so I can't test out my guess. Either that or keep your eyes open for any sort of airy or wispy sounding drop :P Pittyswains 21:51, 5 February 2012 (EST)

A bloodied note links to The Trouble With Grobb, the quest it is from. That includes a list of the item names requested in the note, which Nathasar added to the page a few months ago, however the rest of the quest information is still missing. - Rari Talk 00:32, 24 February 2012 (EST)
woops, totally forgot about that! I finished the quest with advice from a guildie but I have to ask if I have his permission to update the wiki on it. Nathasar 07:53, 24 February 2012 (EST)

Spam pages

Please do not edit pages created by spambots. It creates unnecessary edits in the Recent Changes page which make it harder to clean up. I browse for spam every day or two and clean them up. J883376 09:25, 27 May 2013 (EDT)

thought I was helping. ok. Nathasar 12:17, 27 May 2013 (EDT)

Random things

Golden Lemon to Xaeghun, who says "Rare citrus. I'd keep it, if I were you. Please, take my autobiography, as a token of my appreciation of the fruit's fine quality." Xaeghun returned Golden Lemon to you. Received Disgusting Stories of Xaeghun Second Edition. Nathasar (talk) 16:36, 10 March 2024 (EDT)
