Talk:List of missions

Prestige Missions

for some reason, the monstrous research in the prestige missions have different items needed as the ones shown on here. can anyone confirm that they are random for different players? --Death8338 01:47, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't think they're different per player, but they are different per rank; you get new prestige missions immediately when you rank up. --Antistone 01:54, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Prestige "Monstrous Research"

I have one for 3 shards, but different colors than the ones listed (blue, light, dark), but also for 35 prestige. Should I create a new section? I would think not - maybe say 3 of the following 5 materials and list all the shards?

Also, how should we order them? The rank missions are self-explanatory, but what about prestige? My thought would be (within the clockworks and material sections separately) first by prestige (lowest first?), then alphabetically. Jlh0605 18:32, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Comment - My "Monstrous Research" for tomorrow includes a Meteor Mote - 4*. Currently, the wiki says 3*, but am I the only one getting 4*? Jlh0605 00:21, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Mine is Trojan Horseshoe, 4*. The way it looks, there are about 3-5 different missions labelled "Monstrous Research" out of lack of creativity. I am currently keeping a text document containing all prestige missions day-to-day for all ranks I have access to(thanks to alts) and I'll eventually find out how Monstrous Research missions work, as well as whether or not missions cycle or are assigned randomly.

In short, the answer to your question is that the 4* MR mission hadn't been entered yet. Alphappyalt 05:01, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

rescue camp

someone please change the rescue camp missions.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Leafblader (talk • contribs) . Please sign your posts with ~~~~

a) I don't see what needs to be changed (I admit I'd need an alt to investigate this); and

b) if you can change a Talk page you can change the Wiki. Please don't make senseless requests, and remember to sign your comments. Beware of whitespace when using Wiki markup. --Scribo 07:15, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Adding a New Listing for Energy Cost

Do you think it would be a good idea to add a listing of the minimum energy costs to do that mission? I tried to join someone doing the Shadow of the Beast mission from the beginning, but then when it was boss time, I was short energy, so I ended up wasting my time and energy trying to do a mission that I wouldn't of been able to finish in the first place. I don't know about some people, but I want to be free-to-play as much as possible, and with 100 mist max you have to ration these things out, since I have yet to earn enough crowns to afford 100 CE yet. If I had known I would of needed 30 energy, I would of waited instead of trying to do it. --DefEdge 15:41, August 2 2012 (CST)

Enter the Ready Room of the mission, which does not require energy, click the options icon in the upper left, then click Gate Map. There you will see how many depths the mission has. Alphappyalt 21:22, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

Ok, but at the time I was playing, I did not know this, and was only referring to this wiki listing for the missions. Maybe it would help complete the wiki a bit more to include the minimum energy cost on the table? I'd think about doing it myself, but 1)I don't know how but could probably figure it out, and 2)It would probably be removed for being an unauthorized edit. I also don't have access to the later missions, my recent one being the Shadow of the Beast mission, so the list would be woefully incomplete. --DefEdge 16:33, August 2 2012 (CST)

Prodigious Missions

I won't have been the first to notice just how long and unwieldy this page is. However, I really think we can improve it. While I'm no great shakes at templates, I think if the Mission List template is modified, we could make it a great deal more readable. I'm proposing that we:

1. use showhide or collapsible tables to break down the Rank missions and default all Mission List tables to hidden/collapsed; and
2. remove any superfluous information. I know having a page full of lists and tables might seem boring, but there's really no room for extraneous text like strategy guides. I'm not against them, this just isn't the place to fit them - I'm all for having mission run-downs, if someone wants to start a separate page.

I'll be trying to work out a format that won't bork the page, and hopefully retain or improve readability. Any suggestions/technical assistance will always be appreciated! --Scribo 17:07, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Still a lot of editing needed, but I've used three main collapsible templates: showhide, SKWindowsmallcollapse and SKWindow2. The SKWindow options have trouble nesting the Missionslist template, ending up gappy and compressed in size (I can't even get SKWindow2 to sit correctly, as you can see).

Really, I think showhide is convenient, reliable, and looks fine. May put some stats lists into tables, and the Prestige Missions rotation table into a showhide table. Meanwhile, feel free to discuss, digest, dissect, et cetera, et cetaree! --Scribo 19:20, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

I think the danger missions should get their own page--Trying 19:29, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Sounds good, we could have Missions and List of missions link to...what do you think: "Missions Guide"? I've always wondered about something like that. If it's mainly a few Prestige Missions (and perhaps some details on Expansion missions), I think it would be a workable page. --Scribo 09:35, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
