Crowbow ArticleEdit

The article crossbow is not about crossbows, but about the weapon named "crossbow". If you want an article about all crossbows, start one at crossbows. -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 23:56, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Are you even reading these talk pages? -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 00:05, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
A Crossbow is a weapon. "Crossbows" is redundant. Shadowdancer 00:15, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Did you look at the Crossbow article? It will take 5 seconds of your time, and maybe then you will see that linking to that article is incorrect as more than just that weapon use bolts. -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 00:18, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
What the hell uses bolts besides a crossbow you imbecile!? Shadowdancer 00:19, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Bronze crossbow, Blurite crossbow, Iron crossbow, Steel crossbow, Mithril crossbow, Adamant crossbow, Rune crossbow. -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 00:21, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Oh forgot the Phoenix crossbow. -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 00:21, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
And those are seperate articles linked to from Crossbow are they not? Shadowdancer 00:28, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
Umm, they aren't. Thats why I asked you to look at the article. -- Couchpotato99 (talk) (contribs) 00:47, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Bolt Specials Edit

Would it be possible to add a chart maybe that includes the bolt and its special ability? Thanks

I just did that now, see "Redid page", below - so enjoy! But pls sign too, thanks ;) . Yours, Void Knight banner . AddictEnkidu Talk . Quest Icon Crest 23:32, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

Redid pageEdit

I 'summarized' all the different (mostly overlapping, repetative and nonsensical) chapters into a single comprehensive table. To this table I also added the special effect of the gem bolt enchantment. Take note that this was completely missing from the intire page, while (at least in my eyes) is rather necessary. By adding it in the conventional way, I would have to add a whole new 'chapter' (like: Heading 2 and/or Heading 3, etc.) to the page. In my opinion this would result it making it even more repetative and complicated to read and find what you're looking for. That's why I added the table, that seemed being a much better alternative. . Yours, Void Knight banner . AddictEnkidu Talk . Quest Icon Crest 23:31, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

The chapter titles might need some rephrasing, I'm not very convident about it. . Yours, Void Knight banner . AddictEnkidu Talk . Quest Icon Crest 23:33, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

Dropping monsters?Edit

Since I redid the page... I noticed that the only dropping monster is a Goblin. I think this page is about Bolts (in general) not the f2p Bronze bolts. So, that has to be changed too, imo. Either removed, or it needs to be severely expanded.

And tbh: I think just completely removed, because else the list of dropping monster would be simply lost. It would become sooo long with all possible blots and dropping monsters, that you wouldn't be able to find it useful. . Yours, Void Knight banner . AddictEnkidu Talk .

I believe that's OK. The more specific bolts can have their dropping monsters list, since it'll be shorter, but Bolts shouldn't really have it.
Bolts should have the role of a general information page with disambiguation for the various types of bolts. If they're wikilinked, the reader can then click on the bolt s/he wants to know more about, e.g. adamant bolts.  a proofreader ▸  00:31, November 18, 2011 (UTC)

Breaking chance of bolts should be added to bolt page as it would be VERY useful. Edit

Breaking Chances

Can someone include the chances of metal bolts breaking?

For example, rune arrows have a 20% chance of breaking. It would be VERY useful to find out the breaking chances of metal bolts as it will give players a good idea of the value of the bolts in terms of costs.
