  • Greater Arcane Lore
  • {{Spelllore|4|Arcane}}
  • Invalid Element Parameter or Update to Template:Spelllore Required

Healing Lore doesn't seem to be working[edit]

Item:Signet_of_the_Shining_Sun - Healing Lore VIIcon tooltip.pngHealing Lore VI: Passive: Your Positive Energy spells gain a 16% Equipment bonus to their chance to critical hit.- the "others will be passed on as is" may be at issue, because doing random words instead of "healing" also gave me that error. Although that wouldn't explain why stuff like Fire seems to be just fine...

Consistency pass pending[edit]

Before I embark on a crusade to correct a lot of pages that make wrong calls to this template (which I'm willing to do), this looks like a job for a bot. Do we have any handy? Aldyron (ContributionsMessage) 19:03, September 16, 2013 (EDT)

OK. Embarking. :-) Aldyron (ContributionsMessage) 18:16, September 19, 2013 (EDT)
Disembarking. :-(

Fortunately I realized my folly not too far into the process. I thought what I was looking at was the simple mistake of inverting the element and magnitude fields in the template (I was blaming the recent change in in-game Lore mechanics). The more I thought about that, though, the less sense it made, considering the amount of editors that made that "mistake".

I finally had a long look at the template's history and understood that previous versions of the template and the current one are simply not mappable one-to-one: we need to re-check and re-update every single affected item and list of items, don't we?

Sigh. I've undone my recent edits. Sorry for not thinking hard enough. Aldyron (ContributionsMessage) 18:16, September 19, 2013 (EDT)

Bladeedge fault for wanting to go a completly different path and not thinking about backwards compatibility, it probably makes more sense making this backwards compatible for the HUGE backlog of stuff that we already have→ Neouni (ContributionsMessage) 05:45, October 7, 2013 (EDT)

Recent changes that remove full compatibility to accept XI as well as 11[edit]

  • Umm. Why does this template no longer support roman numerals as input? It should be able to accept either X or 10 in my opinion. Also, what on earth does this have to do with time in Years -- it doesn't seem quite right to me like with is XIX reporting as +29 and XX reporting as +20? I like the xr trick for roman numerals, and would be happy to incorporate it into Template:Dec2Roman. ShoeMaker (Contributions Message) 08:31, October 7, 2013 (EDT)
    • While I disliked previous Bladedge's version for messing up old items and displaying red warnings EVERYWHERE, I am not sure if this version is better. E.g. Mindfury Symbiont --Cru121 (ContributionsMessage) 08:51, October 7, 2013 (EDT)
      • Arcane lore doesn't exist anymore, it's just spell lore now, so the item description details are outdated. With the new changes we are going to need to write a whole bunch of historic items by hand without linking to this template.
        Lightning XIX = +29% and (Arcane) Spelllore XX = +20% it doesn't get the extra +10 since it's an universal bonus.
        • Can't we just go through and subst: all of the historic items before we update the templates? ShoeMaker (Contributions Message) 08:20, October 8, 2013 (EDT)
          • The red warnings is to inform the reader or editor to fix the issue , instead of laying dormant with a blank empty space or some obscure message . If it caught you attention then it did what it suppose to do. Iam also reverting the template and protecting it. Bladedge (ContributionsMessage) 16:18, October 22, 2013 (EDT)
