Re: Outfitter Recipes

When I started the Outfitter page, I intended it to be listed by recipe level; however, I could go with either one (with the alternate level being part of the recipe page). Both have their pluses and minuses (and I can probably see strong arguments for purchase level).

I probably won't be coming back to play VG for a while; so I will kibbitz, but not try to push this kind of decision one way or the other.

I would have no problem splitting the artificer page into two tree column pages if the 4 column tables really don't look sane. However, from what I see, they seem workable.

As far as a tree structure, I have seen some of the newest wikia using a tree form; however, I am pretty sure this version doesn't support it yet.

Even if we did have it, I don't think the tree format is particularly suitable for the recipe lists since for each specialty needs 3 of the 4 columns anyway. The tree would stretch things out down the page significantly. As long as the 4 columns fit pretty well on the page, I think they are the clearest way to organize this data (I would actually suggest going to per-specialty, 3 column tables before the tree).
