ZOMFG

While this article is great and chock full of extremely useful information, it might be useful to farm out some of its content to other articles to keep it a bit less overwhelming and more accessable over all. I'd suggest creating a new page to detail each of the particular task assignments as a start and just including a brief blurb about the task on this page. This is really great work, everyone. :) - Oliver Talk 15:37, 18 August 2006 (EDT)

Thanks. I considered making a ton of sub-pages, but then, the sub-pages would be very small, and really, on the main page it wouldn't save much room (as the amount of information-per-task is not that much). So, yes. I thought about it, but like it better this way... If a lot of people would rather it be any other way, then I'd not be sad to see it changed (and to be honest, if any of the tons of players who I've directed here had asked for it to be split up I would have without qustion). The only other sub-page (than the Foraging Locations one) I can see happening is a Skin Values page. justin talk 16:56, 18 August 2006 (EDT)

I agree this article appears cluttered. How do these edits suit everyone? The alternate solution would be to set the links in the chart as anchors to other headers within the article (similar to 725). Though, I do feel that each task has enough detail that it could be its own article. Check out Gem collecting as a potential template for the other task articles, and tell me how you feel. who is Ulthripe reads this 06:47, 21 August 2006 (EDT)

Bounty Rewards by Skin

Level 55: 10 exceptional snow madrinol skins: 1254 bounty points, 700 experience points, and 3085 silver. -Andy talk 22:48, 17 August 2006 (EDT)

Bounty Rewards by Gem Type

Perhaps this table can get added to this page (or one of its own) when it fills out a bit more? who is Ulthripe reads this 03:51, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

The table's current location

I suggest recording just how many gems you've collected for these tasks. Since I know these figures, I went ahead and added them, though it looks to me like the bounty points recieved is independant of the number of gems required. -Andy talk 04:44, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Yes, it is independent of the number of gems, and so is just going to wind up being a retardedly long (and not particularly meaningful [in my opinion] table). I'll add what i have to it if really you guys think that it's important. I mean, Andy knows how many gem types there are, and yeah. Unless this was totally exhaustive, I don't see it being that useful. Also whoever was doing that table knows that this entry |[[ruby|star ruby]] is pretty silly as clearly there's a ginormous difference between rubies and star rubies (even though neither really links to a real page yet). Oh well, just my $0.02. justin talk 10:59, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

You're right, Justin. This is going to be a ginormous table, eventually, but I still see the use of the data. However, in order to prevent it from taking up the entire talk page, I went ahead and aligned it to the right. In any case... about the ruby/star ruby thing, you're right. There is a huge difference between rubies and star rubies, however, they do share the same noun, and as with all gems, the articles are going to be named after the noun, and not the specific gem, like with the sapphire, gem, and opal pages. Even gems with unique nouns (like the Selanthan bloodjewel) will redirect to their base noun (Bloodjewel). -Andy talk 13:18, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Oh, ok. fantastic. Since I've got what looks to be a slow work day ahead of me, I'll go ahead and see what I can come up with. Oh, also, I'll take the number out, since it's totally irrelevant if we're putting down silver per gem and then the bounty points (which is independent of quantity, too). justin talk 14:04, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Added opals (freaking nine white opals) and removed "Number of Gems" column since its not necessary (told ya so). who is Ulthripe reads this 17:03, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Vyrsh added a ton of stuff to this chart, and I moved it to its own page. Further additions should occur there, and any other discussion on it's talk page who is Ulthripe reads this 06:47, 21 August 2006 (EDT)

Things that need to be done

  • put this in a category
  • discuss faraway tasks
  • declare this to be AdG unequivocally

so what do you think? category suggestions? should we list a range of rewards for a given task or an average? justin talk 19:39, 12 July 2006 (EDT)
