Just to let people know where I'm going with this page. The intention is to shift what colors mean on the enhancement list tables. (Not the bonus tables) Currently the only things that colors mena on those lists is Proc and Globals. I've already shifted Proc to text labels, and will do the same with Globals. The intention is to then start adding the new color templates I recently created, {{Template:IOUncommon}}, {{Template:IOPoolA}}, {{Template:IOPoolB}}, {{Template:IOPoolC}}, and {{Template:IOPoolD}}. The names should give a hint as to their intent. But just in case it is not, the intent is to eventually color each IO to show it's origin and pool. - Sister Leortha 10:15, 10 April 2007 (PDT)

• Can I suggest a Green / Blue / Orange / Red color system instead for PoolA/PoolB/PoolC/PoolD to better indicate difficulty of obtaining the enhancement? -- Resonance 17:33, 10 April 2007 (PDT)

Orange was selected for Pool A because that will actually eventually be the Pool A Rares, and matches the color of the Rares title. As contrasted to Yellow for Uncommons, which will evntually get labeled that or another separate color (Splitting Pool A into two colors for Uncommons and Rares). Then I selected other colors for the B, C, & D pools. You idea has possibilities, though I would debate that there is much difficulty difference in pools C & D, TFs vs Trials. That all said, the colors are set up very easily to be updated, since they are defined in templates. So we can easily enough play around with the selected colors if we want. We just need to remember to also update the article header where it describes what the colors mean.

On a different note, I'm still nto happy with how Procs, Globals, and Uniques are being labeled. I had a thought, but I need some assistance from someone with at least minimal artistic abilities (I have none, basically). I was wondering if someone could create me a set of three small icons for the three labels. When I say small, I mean small. I'm envisioning something that would sit in the current tables, in the places where I currently use "(Proc)", etc, without the icons forcing the field in the table to increase in size. Something that would be easily distinguishable for which of the three is being labeled. I'm thinking something like a white or black "P" on a green background, either a small circle or square, for Procs, G for Globals, and U for Unique. Or something along those lines. I would set up the icons to link directly to the details just like I currently have the text tags linked. Anyone want to give a shot at creating something like this?

Finally, does anyone have a link to a list of the Uncommons? The boards talk about assuming all of them are in Pool A, which is fine, but I'm not finding a list of them. - Sister Leortha 08:20, 11 April 2007 (PDT)

Ok. I've marked all the Uncommons, since those can be seen in-game in the CH lists. Just took a bit of back and forth last night between P-Wiki and the Test server.

I've also, just now, updated the colors. Whether the different pools truely represent increasing difficulty to accquire, they do represent a progression, and so I have colored them in the familiar order of colors, starting with green for Pool A uncommons, and progressing through purple for Pool D.

Finally, I've seen no response to my request for icons above. It has likely been lost in the flood of recent edits. So I'll repost my request over on the forum where it'll hopefully get more visibility. - Sister Leortha 05:52, 12 April 2007 (PDT)
