Two notes, comparing to Performance Shifter: Chance for +Endurance, User:Aggelakis/Enhancement:Performance Shifter: Chance for +Endurance, and User:Thirty7/Sandbox/Enhancement:Performance Shifter: Chance for +Endurance:

  • I think the existing format consumes FAR too much vertical space telling us "This is a proc", "This is a unique IO", blah blah. Instead, I think we should represent this exclusively with an icon. The icon can give the helpful message when you float on it. Clicking on the icon should take you to an article with more info, if appropriate. Relevant info should also be referenced textually in the article elsewhere, but it does not need a big ole box setting it apart and consuming a ton of space. I think a nice set of icons on the top right side of each relevant section will help speed along more experienced wiki readers while still allowing novice users to find what they need without much issue. (The exact icons, hover text, and link destinations could probably use refinement and expansion compared to what I currently have.)
  • I don't see the point in listing off every possible way you can't buy or sell an item. I think it's more helpful to list the things you can do, then simply state that everything else doesn't apply. Listing off all the other stuff just consumes space without actually saying very much.

I agree with the spirit of your first point, but am unsure if the exact metbhod you are using is the best way to go. I will have to think on it a bit and see what i can come up with as an alternative. As for your second point, I agree completely. —Thirty7 Talk-Icon.jpg 05:00, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
