Feedback 2019/06/04[edit]
Okay, this as far as my Wiki-fu goes. Based on Stephane's list of contents in Bonus Box of Goods (Meta-Event Rush), some drops seem to appear in set multiples. I have absolutely no idea how to factor this into the research summary table. --Ojimaru (talk) 14:22, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- I have created the required templates:
[[Template:Bonus Box of Goods (Meta-Event Rush) research header]], [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods (Meta-Event Rush) research line]] and [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods (Meta-Event Rush) research summary table]]Edit: [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods Meta-Event Rush research header]], [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods Meta-Event Rush research line]] and [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods Meta-Event Rush research summary]] . - Can you check if there is any error?--Tolkyria (talk) 14:40, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- None of my entries from the Data Entry page are translating into the research page. Not sure what I'm missing. — Ojimaru (talk) 14:56, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- It's working now. It seems like that the widget doesn't like parentheses in the template names. --Tolkyria (talk) 15:21, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Good to know! Thanks for the hard work! - Ojimaru (talk) 16:14, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Did I forget to add Bead of Liquid Karma? Or is it actually okay, since it's an guaranteed drop? Also "Bonetti's Rapier dropped from a bonus box" and "drop me razah's nightmare" should be treated somehow, maybe as Exotic weapon. --Tolkyria (talk) 21:24, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Good to know! Thanks for the hard work! - Ojimaru (talk) 16:14, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Bead of Liquid Karma is a guaranteed drop, and does not replace any other drops. I'm not keen on including a 100% drop rate item into a table researching other random drops. And yes, I've seen some sporadic map chat reports of named exotic drops, too. Exotic Weapon sounds workable. - Ojimaru (talk) 21:37, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Also, is there anyway to manipulate the summary table to account for the fixed quantity of each drop? E.g. Iron Ore, when it drops, will appear in stacks of 13. - Ojimaru (talk) 21:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, can you include some text about Bead of Liquid Karma to [[Template:Bonus Box of Goods Meta-Event Rush research header]], so that the users are aware of it?
- Well, the Template:Container research summary table row, creating the displayed rows, has a quantity parameter:
qty
. However, the two templates before this template is used, doesn't, namely Template:Bonus Box of Goods research summary and Template:Container research summary table. I'm currently checking Widget:Container drop research form if it allows adding the quantity. --Tolkyria (talk) 21:46, 4 June 2019 (UTC) - Edit: I checked it, and it's not possible. However adding a fixed quantity isn't even correct, I opened some boxes and didn't received the stated quantity. The stated quantity seems to be the mean, for example: I got 15 iron ore, checking the drop rates also yields this result. This definitely needs further investigations.
- Furthermore, I didn't received a Bead of Liquid Karma once. Hence, no guaranteed drop. --Tolkyria (talk) 22:11, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

- Done - Ojimaru (talk) 02:25, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
- You were partially right, Ojimaru. Bead of Liquid Karma is a guaranteed drop, unless one drops an exotic weapon instead, which was the case for me. See also drop table: 367 total, 366 beans, 1 exotic weapon.
- However, this might be an oversight and was copy/pasted internally by a dev from the Bonus Box of Goods (World Boss Rush) loot table, where the exotic weapon dropped instead of Piece of Rare Unidentified Gear. --Tolkyria (talk) 15:31, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
think it drop exotic rare weapon too[edit]
