Post Availability/Desire to work on Encyclopedia

[ZeaLitY]

Well, since they're already there, and are only off by a fraction in extreme cases, I'd leave them in. It's just troublesome to redo all the entries and the entire general table infastructure. I suppose recalculating the exact values wouldn't require that, but it would still mean massive editing. I desire perfection, but this margin's a little negligible.

So I'm divided.

[Hopeful Death]

The reason I asked was because I'm running through every weapon right now as is and adding critical hit rate.

It would be a simple task for me to delete it while I'm doing this.  But I want to know what you want to do about it first.

[ZeaLitY]

I suppose leave it in for now; we can dig up the equation later. For all the work I made it up to be, it actually isn't hard to open fifty of those entries, hit edit on all of them, and change some things around. We'll get to it.

[Hopeful Death]

Well we already know the equation.

4/3 Power * 5/9 Weapon Strength, decimals retained.

[ZeaLitY]

Hm, this power part corrupts it all, doesn't it? The stat increases can never truly be static.

Nonetheless, they're somewhat helpful. I suppose...do you think noob avenger would be up for calculating all discrepancies? In which our system fails us?

[Hopeful Death]

Let's ask him.

Hey n00b Avenger.

What?

Do you think you can do that for us?

Well perhaps I'll get around to it once I'm finished adding critical hit rates to the weapons.

Splendid!

I think I just said yes.

[V_Translanka]

Oh-kay, it's sounding as if doing the Weapon's stats has become more difficult than I can muster...If I do more with them it'll be other stuff: name origin, where to obtain, etc...But for now, I think I'm moving on to Armors and Accessories...

PROGRESS REPORT: I've finished all the "hard data" for the CC weapons. The weapons page contains links to patterns, types of weapons, and an alphabetical listing. I've also written a guide to unlocking rainbow equipment.

STILL TO DO: -Go over every weapon page and homogenize them.
-Figure out how to obtain weapons that can't be forged. This is mostly figuring out who starts with what weapon. For most, I have a guess, but I'm stumped on the Bone Axe. During my next playthrough, I'll note all starting weapons.

[Hopeful Death]

Oh, don't trouble yourself my friend.  I'll have a complete default equipment list up for you later tonight.

[Leebot]

Alright, then. Great. Just let me know where it is so I can put the data into the weapon pages.

EDIT: Oh, and I also need to get specifics on Razzly's Floral Rod. No FAQ I've read has info on how to get it, and none of my saved games have Razzly in the party (Go Glenn!), so I can't immediately try to find it myself. If anyone knows how to get it (or can test it out easily--all I know is you need to bring Razzly to Water Dragon Isle late in the game), please let me know.

[Hopeful Death]

I don't know of any practical place this could be useful, so I'll just post it here and you can use the data as you see fit.

No one starts with the Bone Axe apparently.  But it's a common drop from the Karsh/Solt/Peppor battle.  Karsh is probably the one in particular that drops it.  So if you have one in your inventory, that's probably where you got it from.  I have no idea where else you'd get one.

Anyway, make use of this as you can

[Leebot]

Alright, I've added all of those to the weapon pages.

Left to find out:

-Where do you get the Bronze Axe?
-Specifics on the Floral Rod.
-Can any other weapons be found in chests? (So far, I have the Pack of Lies and the Spectral Glove.)

Left to do:

-Name origins
-Full homogenization

[Hopeful Death]

The ASX and DJellyBean FAQs as well as Ranma's Boss FAQ lists the Bronze Axe as a rare steal from the DeadHead boss on Fargo's ship.

Maybe someone can test that to confirm.  I don't doubt it, but I of course can't speak factually since I can't confirm myself.

[Leebot]

It's up.

EDIT: Sorry if it seems I'm doing this one-at-a-time, but this is how I'm realizing them. Now we need the Bone Shot.

[Teflon]

nevermind. I'm staying.
