1) Obsolete stuff. There are some very odd acronyms, I believe, stayed from previous version of the game, or do they?[list]
[*] SF - Soul Fire. Do I understand right, that few patches ago there are was some special spell with soul damage (as well monsters had "soul resistance" as well specific crystals type?). For now on, we haven't got this spell and we can get rid of this acronym? I see that holy mage have got some special ability, named this way, but this is just a coincidence, I think - I never seen anyone use SF on forum, actually.
yes, there were. Astral weapons for Soul damage (now re-rolled on either Holy or Dark), Shielding Aura suffix for mitigation and Crystals of Quintessence for monster mitigation. all of them were retired.
QUOTE
[*] OB - Overcharge Boost. Same question as above one, this time OB means some obsolete ability, isn't?
yep. iirc there was an item which allowed to go past 250% OC. not sure which was though.
QUOTE
[*] TBP - The Big Picture. I believe this perk named "Source nexus" nowadays
it was a thumbnail-related perk.
QUOTE
2) What this stuff means? There are few acronyms, I don't really understand what they mean, need a friendly hand here to help
[*]WD - [[Weapon]] Damage. I guess this means "Attack Damage Bonus" of weapons, isn't it? Do we need this acronym then? Everybody are talking about ADB, never about WD.
*maybe* we're speaking about the differences between a single weapon's damage and player's damage from stats page
QUOTE
[*]ED - Effective Damage. This means "[Attack] minus [mitigation]"?
it does make sense
QUOTE
[*]EHP - [[Character_Stats#Points|Effective Health Point(s). This means "Base HP"?
imo it should be total HP tank
QUOTE
3) Do we really need this? I see some acronyms noone used or useless ones. Maybe some patches ago we used them, but for now they are obsolete, I think:[list]
[*] BC - Battlecaster, EW - Earth-Walker, SD - Shadowdancer, Ele - Elemental. Seriously? I see nothing special about that suffixes/prefixes at all, maybe few patches ago, they were kinda awesome or uber-unbalanced, but for today they are just a mediocre/good suffix and prefixes.
they don't hurt so much. either way, SD and BC are still used nowadays.
QUOTE
[*] Eth - Ethereal. No doubt, Ethereal is great prefix, but do we really use this acronyms? =)
[*] FB - Frenzied Blows, GC - Great Cleave, CS - Concussive Strike, IS - Iris Strike, SS - Shatter Strike. I don't mind skills overall, but do we really need acronyming them? I don't remember I personally talked about skills at all in past two month. And after 300 level I stop using them at all (apart from that awesome skill, that afford to kill FSM when he have 25%)
hey, hey, you want to remove SD/BC yet keep GC? (IMG:[
invalid]
style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) among them i guess the only two barely used may be FB and Eth
QUOTE
[*] MBP - Manbearpig. Come on, this guy? Why not other bosses then?
[*] EQ - Equipment. I don't know, for me everybody just using "equipment", "equips", and "gears", never seen EQ. To be honest, when I see EQ, I am thinking about Exquisite-quality gears.
they could go, i guess
QUOTE
[*] ISB - Item Shop Bot. Same as everything above.
[*] EoD - End of Days or Eve of Death. Do we really using this acronyms? From all arenas, everybody are talking about DwD only
they are used every now and then
too lazy to check 4 and 5
QUOTE
6) What acronyms we should add into this pages?
For example, I don't see there acronyms for:
[*] CR - Crystallized Phazon
[*] SF - Shade Fragment
[*] RA - Repurposed Actuator
[*] DMM - Defense Matrix Modulator
[*] BoS - Binding of Slaughter
[*] BoD - Binding of Destruction
[*] BoP - Binding of Protection
[*] Fat - Fatality Potency
[*] But - Butcher Potency
seems legit. plus Arch for Archmage, Eco for Economizer, Pen for Penetrator, Jug for Juggernaut, Cap for Capacitor, blah blah
QUOTE
[*] ROI - Return on investment
speaking of which, this comes from real economy. you may add a link to wiki. and also PB for Payback, which is (when appliable, like for Archeologist training and stars)
