Talk:Missions

Love the format. Great idea. SciFiNerd83 1007 (UTC -06:00) 03 August 2010

The Missions section is going to be long and complicated with the current format. I suggest to just list the missions that links to each individual pages. Individual pages can contain more detailed information about each mission and not clutter the main Missions section. Dataminer1 06:41, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

I don't see the necessity of adding a table for energy cost as it is already included in the mission pages unless it would include an energy/XP ration column and maybe a mission type column. But even with that it should be in a separate page. Dataminer1

The idea is that someone who doesn't want to look at each and every mission page can just see at a glance on the table what missions give the most payback. Just using the ratio doesn't work as someone at rank 30, for instance, won't be able to complete a rank 130 mission for a long time and they could both have the same ratio. I don't see the need for putting the table on a separate page at all; however I do agree that there is no need for a separate mission list and table. I plan on deleting the mission list as soon as all the missions are added to the table (unless someone else beats me to it).

Unfortunately, the format for this wiki leaves a lot to be desired. Whoever created the stylesheet needs to be shot (sorry if it was the game designers, but it just goes to show they should stick to game design if that was the case. If they paid someone to write the stylesheet, I hope they can get their money back). Everything is squished into a very narrow area of the screen, while there is a lot of wasted space under the search bar that can't be used for anything. There is already a request to put more into the table, but I don't see how it can support more columns than it already has, although I wanted to put the stuff the requestor is asking for in to begin with.

Now that makes sense. At first, it was just a table of mission titles and energy required that's why I thought it doesn't make sense. I like the modifications to the mission pages too. Dataminer1 07:38, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Someone else had one of the mission pages in that format; I thought it would look better if they were all alike (and I liked that format). I will go back and update the quests as I go along. I'm getting the earlier ones from someone new in my legion. But I'm only Rank 40, so it may take awhile for the later missions to get updated (at least from me). Qualon 23:46, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Question: Do the timed missions come around again? For instance, would someone who recently joined ever have the opportunity to complete the Prejor mission line or is it gone forever? And if gone forever, should we delete it from the mission list (or at least list it somewhere separately)? Qualon 23:46, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

The only timed mission series I see that became available again is the Prejor Mission. I created those pages starting with the Visit to Homeworld mission from the regular missions I had and not from the timed mission. I started playing the game by the time the last timed mission was available and was able to finish it so it was marked as finished when I came to the last part of the regular mission series. The series is very long because many of it was not in the original timed mission - the ones that don't give artifact rewards. Dataminer1 11:56, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks; I did find a post by Dan that gives the Prejor mission chain (he left out Hidden Voices, but added it back in another later post) in order and says it will be archived beginning with Mysterious World at level 40 if A Visit to the Homeworld is completed. From what he said about it in other posts, the energy, XP, and other items may be altered from what they were in the timed version. I've got Mysterious World available to me right now so will be checking the requirements/rewards as I go along.

I've also gone ahead and added all the missions that had a page associated with them (not just a link to start editing a so-far non-existent page) to the table, and put the rank in its own column. I haven't deleted the list yet because I haven't had time to check to make sure I got them all into the table. Qualon 16:01, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Question: Is it intended that the Mission chains be separated from the main table? Currently the Mylarai chain is missing in its entirety (not even the starter mission is in the table). The final missions from some of the other chains are also missing from the main table (The Zolazin Truce, Seal of the Genetarr, Taltherian Renewal) Dave smith354 11:05, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Mylarai and Xecti chains have now been added to Completed Mission Summaries. Pre-requisite missions are now shown in the pre-requisite column in addition to other requirements. Final missions for Zolazin and Genetarr added, Taltherian was already done. Some errors in xp/energy ratios corrected. Dave smith354 13:27, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Major changes made. Full Mission List and Mission Chains broken out to their own pages. This page now consists of the introductory section and the Completed Mission Summaries. A note left at the top of the page until people get used to the changes. Other editors please contact me before reverting any of this. Dave smith354 01:37, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Should mission bonus artifacts link to the artifact's specific page instead of linking to the mission artifact page?
