Manage/Inspect Character Page Stats (in General)


Max January 19 2005 5:03 PM EST

Manage Character Page

Untrained Exp
Total Exp Trained
Total Exp Lost (Unlearned Exp)
AVG Exp gain Per Week

Inspect Character Page
% of HP ST DX and skills/spells

Why:

To help gauge farms and characters for sales
To allow me to quickly glance at what characters I need to train - I can select through them but it would conserve bandwidth and some time.
To help identify strategies (Unlearning and learning) and the cost associated with them

Help new players and vets identify ratios of exp to skills/spells/HP/ST/DX example: 22% HP 0% ST 10%DX 68% FB

Hurm. First, I am flat out against % of HP ST DX and skills/spells on Inspect Character Page. I feel it gives too much information, and turns this game into a "hunt for an appropriate opponent" game instead of a strategy game revolving around how I train my characters.

Second, the suggestions you want for the Manage Character page are really easy to do by hand. Your suggestion would add at least two new variables per minion in the system (Unlearned exp and weekly average exp) as well as add a new math function to be processed per minion. Sure, it could be done per character instead of per minion, but that would futz with calculation teams that add/remove minions.

I'm not interested in further cluttering Manage Characters, particularly not in ways that are only useful to farm-managers.

Well, everyone may agree with you. I am not the sharpest tool in the shed. Just a player.

1. It would help new players/vets form strategies
2. This game is also a hunt your enemies you can womp strategy (Hence: Favorites list)
3. I don't have time to do it by hand-though not the most convincing argument :P
4. It may make the game more interesting for some
5. It would aid the CB economy for character trades/sales
6. It's another stat
7. It would aid in the analytical process of training minions and allow users to fine tune strategies
8. It would aid mentors
