Template:Quest v2/doc

Special thanks to User:Fairingrey author of the original Template:Quest. His template was the foundation for this one. The notes on this documentation are mostly copied and pasted from the original. I hope v2 is as useful as the original.

The following text is the entire template, which can be copied/pasted into the source editor when creating new pages. Note that every parameter name is case sensitive, but the spacing and order do not matter.

Some quests/trials may not use all parameters. In such cases, it is recommended to delete the unnecessary parameters instead of leaving them blank.

Parameters
Banner image to use for the quest, simply type in the map name as you see it. For example when you type The Lair of Fire for the image parameter the template will locate the image if there is one and post it when you publish.
 * image

In an attempt to be efficient all quests for a map are able to be modified through this one template. Q1 is the first quest that you encounter on a given map while Q4 is the last quest. You need only enter a quest name once, the template will utilize the name where needed.
 * Q1, 2, 3, 4, and Bonus Name

AP cost of the quest.
 * Qx-x and Bonus AP Cost

The number of battles to fight in the quest.
 * Qx-x and Bonus # of Battles

The number of sacred stones rewarded for the completion of the quest. This value does not fluctuate - a quest will always give the same number of sacred stones per BP used. That is, a Normal attack using 1 BP may give 100 stones but if you go All Out with 5 BP the reward will be 500 stones.
 * Qx-x Sacred Stones

The estimated EXP this quest gives. This value fluctuates - give an estimate to the best of your ability. The template has been designed to take ranges of numbers. While it will not make any calculations you may enter the ranges manually. For example, if you receive 400 Exp when completing a quest and 500 during another run through you may enter 400-500 in the Exp parameter.
 * Qx-x and Bonus Exp

The estimated gimmel the quest gives. This value fluctuates - give an estimate to the best of your ability. As with Exp a range may be entered in the parameter.
 * Qx-x and Bonus Gimmel

Describe the enemies at each battle stage here. When linking enemies, link to the parent family of the enemy. Keep all enemies on one line, the template will wrap the text as necessary. Do NOT use line breaks,, or indent colons.
 * Qx-x and Bonus Battle 1 through Battle 10

Fill the parameters out to the best of your knowledge. The format currently being implemented is: Using this format you may list each of the different kinds of mobs (monsters) for a given battle. Often times there are two of one monster and one of two others while the same battle on the next run will have three of one and one of another. By listing the number of mobs and the ones known to have appeared anyone reading would know which ones to expect.
 * battle 5 = 4 Mobs: Scale Knight / Ogre / Great Horn

When all enemies on a particular battle stage are known to vary, list the number count for all of the mobs, followed by all the possible enemies with / in between. The / saves space, once battle details are populated with information it can be a little cluttered.

If the monsters do not vary for a given battle then you may list them as they appear. For example:
 * battle 4 = 3 Mobs: Blue Garm, Aqua Angel, and Blue Ogre
 * battle 5 = 3 Mobs: Scale Knight, Ogre, and Great Horn
 * battle 6 = 3 Mobs: 2x Warlock and Ogre

You may enter commonly rewarded items or units here. No need to report gimmel here. For example:
 * Qx-x and Bonus Rewards

Units have their own pages so all you need do is put brackets around their name and it should bring up a link to their page. Items can be a little trickier as they often do not have their own pages, you may use a format similar to mobs as shown above. If all else fails list the name of the reward and someone may add the link later.
 * Q4-3 Rewards = Shotel - Bronze Ticket
