I support people making the wiki unusable so we can be forced to ask each other for advice like the god damn way brad and god intended it.

Personally I dislike how many separate pages there are. I'd combine these two pages:

https://wiki.project1999.com/index.p...Game_Mechanics

And

https://wiki.project1999.com/Statistics

If I was the owner of the wiki, for example.

I hate having to go across like 5 different pages to understand the primary stats and game mechanics.

The wiki has just been so slow these past few years. It takes forever to load 1 page, regardless of it's size. I don't want to have to keep like 10 tabs open because people wanted to separate every 200 lines into a new wiki page.

It's an intermediate calculation in the EQEmu codebase. It's a useful concept for thinking about how the various inputs to the combat calculations are combined.

In the code they name the calculation "offense". I felt that a lot of people would get confuse the "offense" calculation with the "offense" skill. I changed the name of the "offense" calculation to "wrath" to make it easier to follow.

In lieu of using separate pages, is there a possibility of putting the examples into a hidden frame / spoiler link that displays on the same page but only expands when clicked? That'd allow simplifying the page while keeping it one page--if the wiki supports something to that effect.

That is a good idea. Based on my limted experience with the wiki, I want to say no. But I will make this change if someone can show this is possible on the wiki.

I can't create a proper "spoiler" template for the wiki, since I have no personal computer ... but I did have Claude (on my work computer; don't tell my boss) look at the wiki code.

It believes we have spoiler text built-in, which you can use with:

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
Your hidden text goes here.
</div>
</div>


Someday (when I have a computer again) I can simplify that to something like:

{{spoiler| Your hidden text goes here.}}

... but for now you can try the more verbose version, and hopefully the wiki will hide it (but add a "[Expand]" link).
