Talk:Darkest Dungeon Wiki


 * One of the other Admins actually made a page called "modding" yesterday. It's bare bone at the moment but it is linked to the main page. GentleIceZ (talk) 17:41, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Ok, I checked that page, it's nothing related to the content of my page. Do you guys want to merge the two pages or can you guys mention my page in the main page too? Either way is fine for me. I just want my page to be sticked up on the main page. Sunoflife (talk) 23:41, 6 November 2016 (UTC) I feel like the wiki could really use a glossary of terms and acronyms. For example, I couldn't find out anywhere what "DOT" means. I figure it probably means something like "damage over time" but I don't think I've seen it explained anywhere - 23:59, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing that out. A glossary has now been added. You can search of it or find it under "Handy Wiki Game Pages" under "Miscellaneous" on the main page. GentleIceZ (talk) 18:09, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

This wiki is really sparse. I wish we had more info about actual game mechanics formulas. Eg, what is the formula for damage hit chance, how exactly does armor affect damage taken, what are the actual effects of the different named afflictions / (and w/e the opposite of an affliction is called). What is the scouting formula, how is the 'suprise' check calculated, etc etc etc.

Do we really need a Shambler image on a main page? Granted, he looks cool and all, but he was always ment to be a surprise boss, having him here fills like a big spoiler. JustShadowll (talk) 12:09, 19 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Hm. This wiki doesn't really have any spoiler policy due to how next to everything would classify as spoiler. The image of the shambler isn't really a spoiler though, as if you have never met it so far you won't be any wiser after looking at its picture either.
 * Plus the dude is pretty photogenic so it would be a shame to not have him as examplary monster, don't you agree? :P

 * He does have a point though: we could put anything but the Shambler and fit the same purpose without potentially ruining a part of the game to anyone. We could put something like the Hag there, or even a transformed Abomination. --itaShadd (talk) 15:33, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I think today's release will have plenty of photogenic eldritch cuties. While by itself image doesn't spoil anything, it can change one's reaction to the first encounter with him from "WTF is this, I had no idea it even existed!" to "meh, seen this guy already". While I'm obviously exaggerating, better be safe that sorry.

 * Alright, we'll pick one after today. Dooomspeaker (talk) 19:14, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I put a nice gargoyle there, after cleaning up the image from the fx and mirroring it. Let me know if you don't like it. --itaShadd (talk) 20:32, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Continuing yesterday's discussion, I think our wiki needs a spoiler tag or at least some kind of warning. The Darkest Dungeon is too awesome to explore for the first time to accidentally spoil it. JustShadowll (talk) 12:22, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Also, i think we sould made one megapage for everything in the Darkest Dungeon itself. There's not much content and it's pretty much unique to that location. JustShadowll (talk) 14:45, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * A wiki is a knowledge base, it's generally a given that it's going to contain spoilers if you visit a page about things you prefer to discover yourself... :P As for the Darkest Dungeon, feel free to start the Darkest Dungeon (location) page yourself, you can pick another location such as the Weald as a model. --itaShadd (talk) 15:21, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Obviously wiki does contains spoilers for those who want them, but I'm talking about people who dont want to spoil major part of the game for them self but accidentally do so by stumbling upon the enemy table or list of bosses, if we are to categories thing as we did before. While its not totally necessary, we can help it by putting all the things relating to the Darkest Dungeon into one page or category with a huge spoiler tag. It will make things less encyclopedic but more user friendly, I think it's a good thing. I will resume editing wiki closer to the weekend, when I'm done with the final boss. JustShadowll (talk) 16:18, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Other pages should not contain too much info about specific things - in other words, info about the darkest dungeon will be inside the Darkest Dungeon (location) page and shouldn't be anywhere else. What we can certainly do is make a template to warn the users about potential spoilers. I'll make one right away, you'll be able to use it with, such as  will warn the user that the page or section may contain spoilers about the Darkest Dungeon. --itaShadd (talk) 17:33, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Can someone look into the custom cursor the wiki uses? It makes it really hard to click on some things since it seems the 'point' of the cursor and the graphic don't match up, for example i keep getting sent to the main page when i try and click on the search box since the cursor registers as clicking the main banner at the top. --MLegion (talk) 18:15, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Actually it appears the Main banner extends down overlapping the search box --MLegion (talk) 20:41, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
