Talk:Implement Bonus

From DDO wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Forums: Index > Village pump > Implement Bonus

Implement bonus is no longer automatically 3x the Enhancement bonus. It was removed from that formula several update ago. See: Item:Barovian's Sceptre for an example. The Implement bonus on that item is 10, and the Enhancement bonus is 5. The 'i' designation for Enhancement bonus gives me an Implement bonus of 15 and the 'w' designation gives me no Implement bonus at all. So how is this represented on a weapon?

  • Tech has already updated the template Template:Enhancement bonus with new options for this case. It's not documented yet. You can check out for example Legendary Wild Frost -- Cru121 (ContribsMessage) 11:33, April 21, 2018 (EDT)
    • Excellent! I've corrected Barovian's Sceptre with the New Way™ -- Niminae (ContribsMessage) 09:02, April 22, 2018 (EDT)
    • It's not documented because I feel like it's a hack bandaid. I'd like to make it work better, but if I can't find a way to do so reasonably, I'll document it.  👟 ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message) 👟 20:28, April 22, 2018 (EDT)
    • Well it seems like whatever is done, in the end needs to incorporate the Old Way™ because if it does not then many old edits will be made invalid due to the 3x being invalidated. So right now it does not seem like a hack, at least to me. -- Niminae (ContribsMessage) 01:18, April 24, 2018 (EDT)
      • That's why I don't like it. Worst case is I'll run though all the item pages with DDO:AWB and update the pages to use the new extra parameter. Finals are coming up for Spring, so not a lot of time right now to look into having it pull the item's ML automatically for this.  👟 ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message) 👟 10:22, April 24, 2018 (EDT)
  • The new way still needs to be supported for Orbs. Cru121 (ContribsMessage) 03:21, April 24, 2018 (EDT)
    • Implemented hack for orbs.  👟 ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message) 👟 10:20, April 24, 2018 (EDT)
      • Wow, what a mess of inconsistency orbs are... I've made an initial poke at all of it, but I think it still looks horrible. I'll work on revamping the entire "named item" system after finals. This is now at a point where it really needs done.  👟 ShoeMaker (Contribs • Message) 👟 13:32, April 24, 2018 (EDT)
