Party plurality[edit source]

Hi there! No problem about the plurality of "party" -- I'm just stopping by to note that the same article had various other instances of party in the singular (e.g. "party is"). At the time I was just (theoretically) cleaning up a couple other ones to be consistent through the article. Cheers, Cattlesquat (talk) 20:55, 1 May 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]

You're welcome. Thanks for the info. I think, now the last "party is" in that particular article is gone. Hawkeye (talk) 23:19, 1 May 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]

Everburn Blade magical?[edit source]

Does Everburn Blade actually ignore the non-magical Slashing resistance that Cambions possess? I thought a weapon required at least a +1 enchantment to be considered a magical source of damage. Rydiak (talk) 23:09, 6 October 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]

I changed this, because the users "Legios against all odds!" and "Natanielxxl5000" found that out. The Evernburn Blade seems to be magical and ignore the slashing resistance even without having a +1 enchantment Hawkeye (talk) 09:38, 7 October 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]
Good call! I just checked the game files and MAG_Fire_AlwaysDippedInFire_Greatsword indeed possesses the WeaponProperty(Magical) tag. Rydiak (talk) 10:12, 7 October 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]
Upon further review in the game files, it appears that EVERY weapon that is Uncommon or rarer (e.g. not common) has the WeaponProperty(Magical) tag, so this feature is not unique to Everburn Blade. Rydiak (talk) 10:29, 7 October 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]
Ah thanks, good to know. Hawkeye (talk) 10:41, 7 October 2024 (CEST)Reply[reply]

"Dead Toll Collector" in article name[edit source]

Is it really necessary for articles to be named Vance (Dead Toll Collector) and Marten (Dead Toll Collector)? It seems redundant, especially since we already have a disambiguation page Dead Toll Collector towards which both articles link and from which both are linked to. I think simply Vance and Marten were well enough.

Also, I hope you don't mind I edited the two articles to make them more compact while linking to the relevant disambiguation page in what I hope is a more organic manner. --Lurker (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2024 (CET)Reply[reply]

The names of the articles are appropriate as they are now according to the naming convention of this wiki, because in-Game they are both labelled the same as "Dead Toll Collector", and and in case of Marten, there's another NPC with this name, Marten (Iron Consul).

That makes sense, thanks for the clarification. --Lurker (talk) 18:03, 17 December 2024 (CET)Reply[reply]
