Sons of Trigon
Multiple sites have posted information about the upcoming DLC. I posted the description directly from the EU DCUO site as well as the Creative Director's Letter on the DLC 8 page. You may want to reformat my posts to fit this site better. Thanks.

PS4
I created a PS4 page today as several media sites announced DCUO for the PS4. I also listed a couple developer posts from the official forums with small details. The official SOE statement should be released next week during E3. 76.107.208.233 19:16, June 5, 2013 (UTC) -O-

Trinkets
How are their effects limited? Is there a time limit on this Enchanted Vial I just got or is it one-use? User:Atheist723 (talk)


 * Trinkets usually bestow a power buff and/or appearance change/effect which will last for a set period of time (usual 10 or 20 seconds) after which your character will return to their normal stats. The trinket will then enter into a "cool down" period. Much like some power abilities the trinket icon will go red but steadily return to normal colour. You will be unable to use the trinket while it is red. So far all trinkets I have found can be used repeatedily, bearing in mind the "cool down" period. Netherith (talk) 00:54, August 29, 2012 (UTC)

Would love to pick your brain sometime on the equations and game mechanics sometime. Also, I was wondering if you knew why they decided to have both Robin and Nightwing in East End GCPD since they are the same person.

Jerokhna (talk) 05:46, August 30, 2012 (UTC) Jerokhna, Supreme Overlord of Deathseekers Hero League

After Dick Grayson became Nightwing, others have since filled in the position of Robin. User:Atheist723 (talk)

Unlisted stats
Currently, there are stats that are shown in-game but are not included in the infobox, such as "dominance" and "vitalization". Could you possibly put them in? I just know I'll mess up the code. User:Atheist723 (talk)


 * Use this page: Phantom Zone Kryptonite Chunk as the basis for how the page template should look. Netherith (talk) 23:38, August 31, 2012 (UTC)

That doesn't even use the correct type of infobox. User:Atheist723 (talk)

Look under the Stats section and that's the template he's referring to. User:Jerokhna (talk)

I'm not sure if that is what he meant and that isn't what an infobox should look like. User:Atheist723 (talk)


 * I'll ammend the infobox you are using. I will have to find a way to make the text disappear if there is no information for it. Netherith (talk) 10:55, September 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Check out our Monster Infobox, it does more than that. User:Atheist723 (talk)

Thanks. I just find out who was voiced Mr Freeze. It was not Clancy Brown.

A Helping hand
I'm going to start playing DCAU Again, and i will be MASS Contributing when i get the chance. You may remember me from writing the Recruiter Drisch page. (Since changed). Looking forward to working with you, and eventually helping you run the Wiki as an admin if you'll allow.

Personal images
This wiki allows personal images? User:Atheist723 (talk)
 * If they are to be used for Userpages, yes. Netherith (talk) 12:09, September 3, 2012 (UTC)

I just realized I forgot to use timestamps the whole time. Fail. Atheist723 (Talk) 15:08, September 3, 2012 (UTC)

Template:Mob
There is a slight problem with the template. It says "aggressiveness", but I think we should differentiate between aggressiveness and whether it could be attacked. For example, Captain Cold could only be attacked by hero players, but is not aggressive. Both types of Constructs could be attacked by both hero and villain players, but are not aggressive to either. Atheist723 (Talk) 04:23, September 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * "Hostile", perhaps? Netherith (talk) 05:47, September 4, 2012 (UTC)

Future versions
I'm not sure about the problem above, but I have another question - are "Future" versions of characters, like Future Lex Luthor, necessary? I'm leaning towards just using the "Alternate Future" section. Atheist723 (Talk) 12:12, September 4, 2012 (UTC)

Where to get all Catwoman/Cat Burglar pieces?
Hello, I play a Catwoman Iconic character and have been trying to collect as much Catwoman gear as I can. If you can tell me where I can get all of these pieces it would be appreciated. I have the Cat Burglar leggings and have only seen the goggles of the Catwoman set drop aside from them, I have not seen the belt or any of the other pieces, please contact Society_Crashdummy@Yahoo.com thank you.

Image police draft
I have written a draft for an image policy here. While heavily based on RuneScape Wiki's policy, I changed it in numerous places to fit this wiki. What do you think? User:Atheist723 (talk) 16:55, September 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * By the way, how am I supposed to use exobits? I know you could build different exobytes with them, but what type should I make and how does it affect equipment? User:Atheist723 (talk)


 * It depends on what your role is (controller, DPS, tank, healer). Each Exobyte you can make gives you a boost in different stats. You need to work out which stats are best used by your character and make the exobytes that boost those stats. That is how they are generally used anyway. Essentially you can do with them what you want. Netherith (talk) 03:00, September 10, 2012 (UTC)

Kryptonian battle suits
Are those figures right? They cost thousands of marks of triumph which are rewarded in ones and twos from challenges? User:Atheist723 (talk) 10:02, September 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * The amount you earn from challenges have also been altered. The higher the challenge is in the tiers, the more Marks you will earn. In addition you will receive Marks from Weekly awards and the Vault. Netherith (talk) 12:04, September 13, 2012 (UTC)


 * Is there any pattern in the tiers? Lunatic Fringe is level 13 and Spectral Embrace is level 29 but both are tier 1? Also, are you supposed to have access to challenge versions of missions you haven't done? User:Atheist723 (talk) 05:29, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * If you're talking about a pattern relation between the mission difficulty tiers and the armour tiers. No. The majority of armours you get from the typical lvl 1- 30 missions will be below the stats of Tier 1 iconic armour. Armour from Raids and Alerts typically dwell around the Tier 1 to Tier 3 armour stat marks.


 * And yes, you are supposed to have access to alternate mentor missions in the challenge mode. Netherith (talk) 05:55, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

Soder Cola Enhancers
How do they work? User:Atheist723 (talk) 03:18, September 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * Haven't used them but from what I understand they are used in R&D to create more potent Soders. Netherith (talk) 03:22, September 18, 2012 (UTC)


 * I have a feeling that while the "Enhancers" could be bought by free players, the required plans are the ones that costs more than $1500... User:Atheist723 (talk) 04:47, September 18, 2012 (UTC)

Combat rating
How do I get a combat rating of 43 for tier 3 alerts when the highest item level I've ever seen is 40? User:Atheist723 (talk) 15:18, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Vendor Renown Emblems
Hi Netherith

I note you changed the Star Ex Page, and you might be right, that it's not directly related. Please then could we have a page for vendor emblems. Even just so people know what they are working for? its a lot of work, I feel people should know what they're working for. I'd do it myself but I only have the Star Labs emblem at the moment.

Peace

Dava Dava4444 (talk) 21:37, October 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * I suppose it is about time I started working on the Emblem style-list. Put your image on the S.T.A.R. Labs page for now. Netherith (talk) 07:11, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Style sets pictures
Try to use bright colors(but not white because in some sets it is default on some parts) - yellow, red and blue are a perfect solution because all of them bright and are different from each other, yeah pictures look a little bit silly but you can easily understand what zones are colorable just by looking on them. Some of your styles are like one color only - there is no way to understand what areas are colorable there. I know dark colors are awesome and all, but with bright colors that are different from each other(not yellow, orange and gold for example) there will be visible much more details.

Pingvinozavr (talk) 11:23, October 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Since we're telling each other what to do, how about we instead use colours relevant to the themes the pieces represent and make them different from each other. Wonder Woman is not red, white, and blue. Neither is Fate.


 * Although I understand your reasoning for the individual pieces and will look into keeping an eye on it in the future. Netherith (talk) 07:00, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think you are the one who is talking about own personal tastes here - how do you know exactly what colours are relevant to the themes? I though wiki is about providing information, not about "this thing looks cooler that way, who cares about info" - for example your Hera's Strength painting is like 2 color only(yellow and white) but actualy it is one color only(yellow, because white parts are default uncolourable) - this picture is confusing, is it only one color available for this costume? and your spec ops painting is like one dark spot, Paneled Bodysuit - are there only 2 colors can be there?, Dark Specter Batsuit - is it all metallic or just except chest and legs? I can go on with that list. Personaly I think that yellow, red and blue painting look silly, but it gives what the wiki supposed to give - information (as I said before you see all the detail of the costume because it is bright and all the colorable zones because all colors are different from each other, also you can see what the costume doing with the color - for example Paramilitary boots got 2 colors mixed).
 * So here are the pros of silly and no silly color styles:


 * Non silly colors:
 * 1)They fits the style, thats why they are cool
 * 2)They don't look silly


 * SIlly colors(yellow, red and blue):
 * 1)They show every detail of the costume because they are bright.
 * 2)They show colorable zone because all colors are different from each other as much as possible
 * 3)They show what costume doing with the colors
 * 4)They show uncolorable places (if you see white or black color for example)
 * 5)They show what places are mettalic and what are not.


 * Pingvinozavr (talk) 11:56, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * While I don't think that adding stylized pictures is bad, I too believe that each article must have a RBY scheme, so the players can see all the details. I suggest having both for each style. In short, stop bitching and overwriting each others images. Paska9 (talk) 16:04, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * The wiki is also used to advertise the material. Why are we using images that display something in a bad way? Look, I don't have quelms with the images, what I have quelms is that you blasted months of work without even discussing it with the people who work here. Your images are useful and we can add a "Colour Scheme" section and also add a tidbit about where emblems, if any, appear on the style, but don't break what we are already using to advertise the styles. Netherith (talk) 07:03, October 30, 2012 (UTC)
 * Advertise armor sets? So people gonna use them or what? Or you think that they gonna like the game less just because of style sets pictures on the wiki got the bright colors? Why are we using images that display something in a bad way you say, well up there are 5 good reasons for that, and why do you have to hide bad things in the armor sets, people should know the truth (Dark Specter Batsuit is a good example). But yeah, I should contacted you before changing that pictures, sorry about that, never thought though that anyone gonna think about them as my "own personal taste", because I thought coloring idea was kinda obvious. Pingvinozavr (talk) 10:14, October 30, 2012 (UTC)

By the way, I think that Metropolis is the best place for taking style screenshots (because the lighting in the city affects the lighting in the character menu), for example old version of High Voltage set was done in the wathctower(and it's pretty shadowed) and the new one was done in the metropolis Pingvinozavr (talk) 18:33, November 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Central City not good? Netherith (talk) 15:52, November 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * Nah, CC got pretty strange lighting (I don't know is it just me, but when you chose lex luthor model for the legends his head is black, but I think the model is just messed up - it looks brighter in the wathctower and darker in the metropolis) - it's like the light source located behind the character, so he's got dark front and very bright edges that looks like some kind of light aura, that can be confusing. Pingvinozavr (talk) 18:33, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

What do you think about me updating style sets pictures with a better quality ones(with .png format). With all my points about yellow-red-blue colors have you change your mind about the idea of making style sets pictures with them? Also with the recent game update of the colors UI we can come to terms which exact colors should we use(my suggestion is FFFF00, FF0000, 0000FF from here http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm) By the way, have you used some kind of soft for the legends characters pictures, or just manually cut all of them with the same size? Pingvinozavr (talk) 15:43, November 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think we should do two types of pictures; one advertises the style using expected and appropriate colours for the style presented (eg Wonder Woman would be gold, Batman black, Luthor Green and Purple, Superman Blue and red, Army styles would have army colours, etc) and another to advertise the colour sections. We use both on the style pages as they both deliver information required. We also need to work out an effective way to show emblem placement.


 * I edit my screenshots, when they need to be, with Photoshop. Generally I use .jpg because they are smaller in size and thusly will be less of a burden on loading and such. Netherith (talk) 05:34, November 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * I still don't get why do you have to advertise style sets. Is there a way to post doubled pictures in the general style sets page other than combining two pictures with graphic redactor ? And yeah, we should think about emblem to use - I think it should be the smallest emblem of them all just to show emblem location and to cover the less style as possible. "Expected and appropriate colours" are totally subjective(for example why do barbarian gear have to be white) while showing coloring zones are not. And how comes that Wonder Woman color is gold, she is mostly red, then only gold and blue. And again dark colors that advertise the set hide some strange things about it like I already said before. I think people should know that something bugged if it is so. But if you think that main reason of wiki is advertising and if you want to place advertising above information even after all my points before I don't think that I can appeal to reason. Pingvinozavr (talk) 06:49, November 8, 2012 (UTC)


 * Dude, if I held one above the other I wouldn't be recommending we use both. We are not just pure information, we also, wether we like it or not, act as advertisement for the game. Enough on this, you get what you want and I get what I want, everyone has won and further debating on this is rather pointless.


 * Add a number (such as 1 or 2) at the end of each of your style images before uploading them (the ones that already have versions here). The site only does the redirect thing if it is an image with the same name; change the name and it is simply another image.
 * As for the emblem, I am thinking the star emblem as it is fairly neutral but can be seen and identified easily on a gallery thumbnail. Netherith (talk) 03:58, November 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, then I'll just upload the images. By the way what do you think about Iconic Battle Suits and placing emblems on them - should I turn off the emblems for them because emblem on the iconic emblem looks kinda strange or should them be there? Pingvinozavr (talk) 07:08, November 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * I was under the impression that emblems would not appear on Iconic Suits but if they can then I see no reason why they shouldn't be treated the same as any other style set. Netherith (talk) 07:16, November 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yep, it appears that emblems are not showing on Iconic Suits - I saw a JL emblem on player with superman t2 chest, but I guess it is the same thing like you can see other people belts with trenchcoats while you cant see it on you.

Little Idea
How about you (cause I am way low tech) add a little wondow on the front page that could be used for quick news updates in the game (for ex. "DCUO announces DLC 7" - link" or "DCUO Announces Tripple Station Cash for Nov 4!")Paska9 (talk) 16:20, November 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * We did have that originally but we didn't have anyone to update it frequently enough so we scrubbed it. I've been thinking about scrubbing the second and third Spotlight pages as well. Netherith (talk) 16:17, November 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * I think it'd be a neat little idea, that I could spend a little time updating. Maybe put it above the "character spotlight". Thing.


 * For the spotlights.. I'd scrap the item/equipment one and make the character one small (next to bussiness/location).Paska9 (talk) 16:20, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

 * Nothing seems to have been recorded yet of who or what drops the style but keep an eye on the Brokers, odds are good it will pop up in there. Netherith (talk) 06:05, November 9, 2012 (UTC)

Hows It Look
http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Chest_Armor im going to add a page for all of the chests eventually but thats going to be my base look for it what'cha think? (Darkrift1989 (talk) 13:26, November 9, 2012 (UTC))
 * Very nice. But if you wish to do it that way then we don't really need to put it on the category page. It would be better on a normal page. That way you won't have two lists of the same thing. Netherith (talk) 13:30, November 9, 2012 (UTC)

well imma take a break and get me some sleep catch you tomarrow (Darkrift1989 (talk) 14:02, November 9, 2012 (UTC))

been hard at work, check it out http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Demonic (Darkrift1989 (talk) 08:35, November 11, 2012 (UTC))


 * Good programing and such but I already told you to stop doing that to those pages. Netherith (talk) 05:25, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

its so much better though... demonic should be in the category section anyways its not like a page about superman or something where its just a profile, demonic is linked to so many things why not have it all on a one stop shop page know what i mean? all the styles in the style sets should be in their respective categories, like how i did all the peices of armor. check it out http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/Armor makes it so much easier to know when someone adds a peiece of that armor type you dont gotta go searching for it its right there at the bottom, also i dont mind doing for all of the armor set styles if thats the problem. i want this to be a great wiki (Darkrift1989 (talk) 05:54, November 12, 2012 (UTC))


 * Keep up the good work you are doing with the individual armor and weapon pages. I will handle the list pages and overall. I do not wish to display the wikia's skeleton the way that it is right now, its messy and confusing in numerous ways. Netherith (talk) 06:32, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

thats why i was tryin to clean it up, im sure it's extreamly discouraging to people who come to contribute and theres no real site layout nothings truly connected, you should be able to seamlessly navigate the wiki and find everything you want and never have to touch your keyboard, ive been all over the site and from what i can see it needs a basic structure not just good independent pages like iconic battle suits, or research and development. the first thing i did when i noticed nothing was connected i made the http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/Databases page you cant expect to have a great house with no foundation so i started at the very begining you can get all the way to the armor pages i created from the Databases category like a tree branching out to the pages that are DCUO (Darkrift1989 (talk) 07:10, November 12, 2012 (UTC))


 * I will handle it. Netherith (talk) 07:20, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

updates
Hey, are you active on the official forums? Would you mind if someone put together an effort to make wiki updates? I'd like to know your thoughts on this before I put up a post. Basically I'd like to get the people who would otherwise not be involved with editing a wiki to contribute in small chunks. The goal would be to get volunteers to take on tasks of various difficulty, track the progress and make the wiki better overall. There are still a lot of empty stubs out there, and probably a lot of content that still needs to be added. Let me know if you think this is a good idea. Schm0 (talk) 13:54, November 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * So you wish to create a page in the forums showcasing the wikia and such. Netherith (talk) 06:59, November 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, the idea of a wiki is to have users contribute, right? There's certainly a lot of content to be written or edited, and you're now working on the category tree (which is a mess.) Let us know how we can help and I'll put out a call for action on the forums if you like. Assign tasks to specific people so it's not unorganized. I'm thinking the community can help here and here, while you can deal with the category stuff. (I think you should make the category plans public so we can see where you're headed. Let us know how you want to name them and which ones need to go, and we can do all the grunt work for you.) We can help categorize once the articles once they're on solid ground. Schm0 (talk) 14:00, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

I'll be done with my Chest Armor page soon, then i'll move onto another armor type. also i want it to stay a category page. and im not happy about who ever deleted my Armor page i made i had to redo it, it's there for easy site navigation. (Darkrift1989 (talk) 11:52, November 13, 2012 (UTC))


 * Looks like Netherith is going to be rehashing the category structure.Schm0 (talk) 14:12, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

A Dream
I wanted to make this a better wiki, a great wiki actually, but i dont really think anyone knows where this site is heading, the site structure needs improved its been a year and yeah theres pages here but theres nothing connecting them, and also the items/armor you really gotta ask yourselves why are people making their own sites for armor trinkets and items, instead of here. personaly how i feel what i've done thus far should have been there day one, how do you expect people to come and add armor to your website if theres no armor section i had to make one. i dont mind adding pages but im O.C.D. and its like throwing paper into a already filled and unorganized hallway its driving me crazy, open the doors and put the right papers in the right rooms. since i dont have the power or permision to change the way any of these things work i will be leaving this site for awhile untill something changes. i'm sure many have come here and had the same issues i've had making them leave aswell which in turn hinderd the sites growth. i leave this message with no ill reguards just hope that one day this wiki will be what i invisioned when i first clicked the link to come here. i wish you and the others luck.

Well I was wanting to say hello and all the Greeting and Salutations first. I am new to the Wiki as I am sure you can tell, but I am very interested in making the Wiki more complete on the information from the game. My main focus is getting Weapons, Armor, and other Items that have not been added to the Wiki, and well add them.

Home Turf
Today you have deleted much information on the Home Turf page (investigations and briefings) without readding that information on the proposed single pages. Are you going to add that information and if not why have you deleted it in the first place? 213.73.120.161 18:46, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * It does not belong there. We have single pages for that info. Netherith (talk) 22:54, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * I see what you are saying, but that was valid information and you just deleted it because it was not on single pages? That was surely a big service to the community you did there... demanding single pages I mean. Though I think it's a bit "how can I best increase the wiki stats here" way of thinking. The wiki with the best info is not necessarily the wiki with the most pages. Just my two cents though.

213.73.120.161 23:22, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * The pages already have the info. It was not needed. I don't give a damn about the wikia's number of pages, I give a damn about its quality of work and I don't think we need the same exact info on two pages. Particularly on pages that they don't belong. Netherith (talk) 23:33, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * You deleted the info on the investigations and briefings although it just would have had to be copied over. 213.73.121.110 21:27, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

Arcane Edict
Again you deleted valid information here and again information I added in the first place. This time there are no extra pages required for it as it seems. I have nothing against restructuring and I mean it, but if you keep treating stuff I add like weed needing a lawnmower and deleting what you personally do not deem necessary you can add all stuff yourself here and I will avoid this web location in the future. 213.73.120.161 23:41, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * What valid stuff did I delete? If you fail to follow the layout of similar pages of its type you should expect it to be altered by someone to better fit the other pages. Netherith (talk) 23:43, March 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Again I have nothing against restructuring, but you deleted a) the locations given by the game, b) the heroic tag I added because I am not sure villains and heros all have the same missions throughout - that tag would be superfluous if - and c) the tags in which those mini-missions drop. 213.73.121.110 21:27, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hey I noticed this cool style that was uploaded by you and i searched the internet but i couldnt find it. How do you recieve this style from DCUO?

Disappearing images
Any idea why is that happening? For example this one: http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/File:ShieldDraconicPlate.png - was working fine but now it is gone for some reason. Pingvinozavr (talk) 22:39, March 23, 2013 (UTC)

Try re-uploading it. Otherwise its probably a problem with the wikia (the corporation) database trying to catch up. It should reappear in a few days if that is the case. Netherith (talk) 03:20, March 24, 2013 (UTC)

models that are not in the game.
Where did you get all of the character models like this one? http://images.wikia.com/dcuo/images/d/d4/CharModelSteel.png

Also there are some models that are not presented in the game like amazo, mad hatter, metamorpho and armor sets like omac and quickstrike m, so maybe there should be some kind of special section for all that unreleased stuff?


 * Before the game was released, DCUO had an online quize that tested you on DC knowledge. These models were from that quiz game. As for the unreleased armor sets they do appear in some form or other (the OMAC head) and we have no garuantee that they have survived ingame in that form or have even been included so we just keep them in related pages instead (eg the OMAC style is in the OMAC page). Netherith (talk) 21:50, April 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * OMAC head style looks a lot different from the one on the OMAC set picture. Also there are screenshots from game update 3 that got some of quickstrike style parts, so I gues some of them are in the game, there is just no way to get them. Pingvinozavr (talk) 22:58, April 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, as I said. These are concepts so the final product that is in the game might be way different. Netherith (talk) 23:01, April 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * They look more like finished 3D models rather than concept like this one http://images.wikia.com/dcuo/images/0/07/Dc_universe_online_conceptart_VP3dr.jpg Pingvinozavr (talk) 23:09, April 3, 2013 (UTC)

We need to block some people who are making meaningless edits on pages just to earn badges.

=Game Credits= Hi there, I noticed that one of the few links off the home page still missing is the one for the game credits. While I don't intend to transcribe those, I have made a video of the credits as they run in-game. It's 145 mb. Would that be too big to upload here? What would you suggest in that matter? Thanks - Datasentinel (talk) 18:49, May 13, 2013 (UTC)

Almost 20,000 edits?!

Geez man. Information Guru this one is.

Game credits again
Hi there, would appreciate an answer to my previous question. Even if you are not able to make a suggestion, that information would be better than waiting for an answer for 3 weeks. Thanks. Datasentinel (talk) 21:18, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

Its pretty obvious we prefer text over video. Netherith (talk) 23:31, June 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the answer, would not have asked if it had been obvious to me btw. Well, the credits slot has to stay empty then, at least as far as my contributions are concerned. Datasentinel (talk) 08:54, June 5, 2013 (UTC)

RE:Lora
Oh. Well the devs must've mistaken her name then :S (I'm not yet T5, so I didn't go to that operation yet)

And since all the official sites still call her by her full name, I thought we could put her full name too..

Badge Designing Tip
Hi there, I am known as Wuher MosEisley in many games. I am an admin on the Free Realms wiki and I would like to share a tip on badge designing. You can customize a badge to the full by going to the badges' file locations and uploading new versions of them. I have done so on the free realms wiki as seen here. Good luck!

Example:, Note no image will show if there had been no customized badge prior. The dimension are 128px by 128px.

For a closer examination of the fr wiki badges: Here --Wuher MosEisley 16:14, June 29, 2013 (UTC)

A wiki contributor made a new page and wrote random stuff, please delete it, it's called mogo

Queuing raids
For some time I've noticed that tier 3 raids take forever to start. I could literally queue for an entire day without getting a single team. Is there anything I could be doing wrong? --User:Atheist723 07:26, September 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * I think most players are using pre-built groups instead of just queueing up for t3+ raids. So my recommendation would be to build a group up front via the LFG chat channel and then to queue up as a party of 8. Building a group may take a while, but certainly not the entire day. Additionally it has the advantage that you can see through that you don't have 4 tanks and 4 trollers which may happen with a random group if queued up solo. Datasentinel (talk) 09:24, September 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I do that as well, but it often still takes hours even when I'm lucky. At least 90% of the advertising in the LFG channel is for tier 4 and 5 instances, none of which I have access to (except the Batcave alert, which I haven't seen in about a month). Where on earth are all the free players? --User:Atheist723 10:37, September 8, 2013 (UTC)

Questinfo vs. Alert
Hi there,

saw your edits on Trigon's Prison. You have deleted the Template:QuestInfobox. Is it only for solo missions? Not to be used for duos or alerts?

Datasentinel (talk) 11:25, September 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Have you seen the other Alert pages? Location layout. Netherith (talk) 15:04, September 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Ahh, I see now. Thanks. I'll put a note on the template only to use it for solo missions. Datasentinel (talk) 12:22, September 18, 2013 (UTC)

Unknown Emblems
Hi there,

just saw the two images you uploaded.



This is actually a known emblem, it's called Comedy and Tragedy and you get it for doing a race in Little Bohemia - don't know which though. I have updated the list at Emblem Styles.



This I never saw and I think I have all but one emblem since free2play. Perhaps it's an old server emblem? Or it's the one I miss, the Feline Emblem for the Tail Catwoman race, but the image does not look like anything feline.

Datasentinel (talk) 12:43, October 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Good catch. That was my theory as well on the mystical swirl symbol. I should probably start up a thread on the DCUO forums to request images of those symbols. Netherith (talk) 12:44, October 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Have you asked on the forums before? Was it fruitful? I can think of some consumables some of which are even phased out now, I cannot get hold of anytime soon. So asking on the forum would be an option. Datasentinel (talk) 18:43, October 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * I have to admit it wasn't very fruitful, but it is the best bet that I can think of. Unless you know some groups in the actual game. Netherith (talk) 00:28, October 2, 2013 (UTC)

Conditional Gender Formatting
Hi there, now that the categories Male and Female are widely set, it makes sense to link to them from gender data in info boxes. I have added conditional formatting to the templates Template:Npc and Template:Mob. If a valid gender is found, the according category page is linked to, otherwise, e.g. 'n/a', the data stays unlinked.

However I cannot edit Template:CharacterInfobox since it's admin locked. If you have a minute left, would you please be so kind to copy the code from one of the above templates to CharacterInfobox? Everything between the two |- needs to be copied.

Thanks. Datasentinel (talk) 09:51, October 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * That was fast, thanks again. Datasentinel (talk) 12:37, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Seasonal teaser
Hi there,

I have put a seasonal Halloween teaser on the front page. It's commented out. Can you check whether you are okay with it please? Just uncomment and preview. If okay, I would like to suggest that we run it for one week until Halloween.

If this works out we could also think of other seasonal teasers on the front page, either as long as the events run ingame or just for a week's worth  around the real world date.

Datasentinel (talk) 02:06, October 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm a bit busy to handle that stuff but if you want to do it, go for it. Netherith (talk) 08:39, October 25, 2013 (UTC)


 * Sure, I just did not want to do it without asking first. I see you uncommented the images. Datasentinel (talk) 11:14, October 25, 2013 (UTC)

where can i get it
how you get this sword what mission you do or where can i get this sword

Template:Obsolete
Hi Netherith,

concerning the new obsolete template I have toned down the colors a bit. That box was so bright that it was hard to move the eyes away from it onto the actual information on the page. I have also changed the font color for better contrast and readability.

Feel free to revert my changes, but I think it's less obtrusive and thus better now. Datasentinel (talk) 11:20, November 7, 2013 (UTC)

Precision Based Power
Hello. I am a contributor to this wiki. I want to discuss with you something I have come across on this site. Pages such as Precision based Power, Dominance based Power, and Might based Power. I admit that my actions of removal are wrong, and for that you have my apologies but they were not without cause. If you refer to these pages you will find information that is not accurate. When I did remove I was met by Datasentinel here is the talk page conversation thus far. I would like to hear your judgement on it.

'''This page is uneccessary, this is user opinion not actual information on the game. Visitors to the wiki will get the wrong idea. I ask that this page be removed.'''

'''This page is biased. Is there any relevant information that proves otherwise?'''
 * Hello. Please feel free to correct what is said in the page. However I don't understand the removal request and that's why I reverted your previous edit. You cannot just delete something you do not agree with. Why is this page unnecessary? Why is it biased? If you think this is a user opinion, then please correct with more objective information.
 * And please try not to worry what others may or may not think. That's not a good approach since you cannot know.

'''Hello. I agree that I cannot delete something that I do not agree with, however please refer to the information on the page itself: Precisionbased Powers do the fastest damage and also the best damage with theirweaponsand play at their best with higher stats of Precision when in DPS role. An advantage of Precision based powers is that if the player runs out of power to use their power abilities, they can revert to their weapon to do massive damage instead unlike Might based players who require their powers to do the massive damage.'''

List of Precision based Powers: '''The original author is stating that these powers are the best at a physical DPS role. Firstly, to say that something is the best means that it is accepted by everyone.An opinion as he does not know this for a fact.'''
 * Earth (Power) - Only 3 power abilities do Precision based Damage
 * Light
 * Celestial

'''I find this hard to believe. While the requirements for two of these powers does in fact utilize a weapon it is by no means the best (nor should it be referred as such). There has been fire DPS' that does fast damage as well (while using a weapon mind you). I also find it hard to believe that only 3 powers in the game are "Precision Based." That is also user opinion. There is no information to back it up. Just because a player can combo with their powers does not mean that they are the best at being a physical dps. I am certain you have played this game for a long time so you tell me, are these three the best at a physical DPS or is that user opinion? The user states even on his page he uses one of these powers, so a possibility of opinion and not fact is possible. Can a person with any power and a high precision, with or without clipping their powers an effective DPS or do they pale in comparison to 3 powers this user has brought up? The ingame defininition of Precision is that it adds damage to weapon attacks, not speed. '''

'''Also please look at the other pages AnonymouslyDark has made like Dominance Based Power, and Might based Power. The former only involves two of the original six powers, effectively stating that other tanking powers does not fit into this, though any tank must have high dominance for their role, even their equipment gives bonuses for this. In the latter the user is stating that every other power in the game fits into that category. All of this has no actual evidence to back it up. '''

'''And lastly with all due respect, I do not worry about what others think. This is a wiki, we the users and contributors are to provide accurate information for those who visit the wiki. To create a page on here I believe we are to be objective as possible, otherwise who will actually refer to this wiki? More or less we are archiving information that has already been given on the official DCUO forums. To say that I worry about what others think gives me the impression that you do not check new pages for relevance and accuracy. Or that this user is someone you are familiar with.'''

 * Thank you for the notification and your editing of the other pages as well. It is a good job you did and I thank you for keeping us honest in delivering factually helpful and unbiased information to the community. Netherith (talk) 04:15, November 25, 2013 (UTC)

Hey mate, just wondering where you found the following style??

http://dcuniverseonline.wikia.com/wiki/File:Ba0kY35CcAAmxk4.jpg

Front Page
Hi,

your last edit seems to have broken the front page. The DCUO Livestream box goes quite a bit out of the page boundaries, al least if the War of the Light Part I teaser is shown.

Datasentinel (talk) 23:38, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Just wondering how you got the detective look. I love it and am trying to find it but don't see it anywhere. If you can help that would be great. Right now I have a Hero created with a suite and cape but the Trench with shirt and tie is what I really want. (I'm going for the Question The Shadow type look.)

Wildstar Online Opportunity?
Hey Netherith,

I'm contacting folks I think could be interested in an opportunity with Carbine studios, the creators of the upcoming Wildstar Online MMO. You can check out their official site if you're curious to learn more about the game: http://www.wildstar-online.com/en/.

To give some background, this is one of the occasional Wikia partnership opportunities where we connect users directly with developers in hopes of forging an ongoing relationship. Participants will be about to check out the game early, provide feedback, get some swag, and participate in various events around the game. More importantly, it's a cool opportunity to get a more hands-on relationship with the game creators.

Later this month, we'll be hosting an chat, perhaps with some Carbine folk, to chat about Wildstar Online and brief folks on the opportunity. This is just a first round of outreach, but I always like to reach out to folks we're familiar with first. That being said, if you know any MMO fans out there would might find this interesting, please feel free to put them in touch with me.

If you're interested, let me know via email (jorge@wikia-inc.com) and I'll get you more details as soon as I can!

All the best,

Jorge (profile)•(talk) 21:32, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

would it be possible to get permission to remove pages? i created some pages with an incorrect date format

Sorry I managed to sort things out with the pages. No need to remove. Thanks

User talk:76.107.205.2
Hi there,

may I ask why you felt tempted to delete the talk on that page? There was no swearing or profanity on it and I don't understand the reasoning.

This is a unregistered but regular user and there was a bit about adding categories that was fairly interesting enough to be of value for other readers too. The anonymous user tried two times to delete the content on that page and I restored it two times because as anonymous user he or she does not own that talk page. Thus your decision to delete the page was a little bit counterproductive IMHO. Just my two cents though.

Lots of questions
I stopped playing for a few months and came back a while ago.
 * One of the first things I have noticed is that exobits are completely gone. I used to pick up a few every day but I haven't seen a single exobit in about two weeks.
 * I am considering picking up Hand of Fate and/or The Battle for Earth. Technically it is possible to skip them and go straight for tier 5, only using marks from free-to-play content (according to the combat rating formula, full tier 4 equipment results in 82 CR), but I estimated that'd take about six months and I am not looking forward to that. Thematically the latter sounds cooler but the former has 1 extra alert and the arcane missive things. What would you recommend?
 * Speaking of which, the marks rewarded from high level raids and alerts are rather confusing (some of which still uses marks of war). For example, A Black Dawn states 6 marks of war (i.e. 750 marks of triumph) is awarded, which is even less than the Inner Sanctum alert. Maybe they neglected to mention the monthly bonus?
 * Now that I mainly play on my nature healer, I wonder if you can comment on my current loadout:
 * 1) Bloom
 * 2) Harvest/Blossom
 * 3) Savage Growth
 * 4) Cross Pollination
 * 5) Swarm Shield
 * 6) Regeneration
 * It is hard to choose between Harvest and Blossom because Harvest doesn't remove pheromones, but Blossom has an extra heal to myself and the most injured teammate (and usually there is someone who is significantly lower in health than everyone else, and sometimes me if the tank isn't good).
 * What is the difference between the heals of Metabolism and Savage Growth? I get the latter just for the knock-up - which for some strange reason, sometimes affects targets that I don't have the dominance to affect, but it is a bit inconsistent.
