Creating a New Crafted Armor Page
Welcome, Drifter! This guide will help you create new crafted armor pages.
Crafted armor pieces are created by players using recipes and materials. They often vary based on which materials are used.
Steps to Create a New Crafted Armor Page
1. Create the Page
Enter the name of the crafted armor piece exactly as it appears in-game.
Use the format: Item Name/Secondary Material Used
Examples:
- Newhaven Copper Helm/Rough Light Leather
- Highlands Copper Greaves/Fair Dense Leather
This makes sure that multiple versions of the same item are organized properly.
2. Use the CraftedArmor Template
On the new page, copy/paste the template found below.
If you use the Create Center, the template will automatically preload the following structure:
{{CraftedArmor | name = | tooltip_image = | equipment_type = | armor_weight = | armor_class = | durability = | stat1_name = | stat1_value = | stat2_name = | stat2_value = | stat3_name = | stat3_value = | stat4_name = | stat4_value = | stat5_name = | stat5_value = | stat6_name = | stat6_value = | level_requirement = | class_requirement1 = | class_requirement2 = | class_requirement3 = | crafting_profession = | recipe_page = | component1_name = | component1_material = | component1_material_category = | component2_name = | component2_material = | component2_material_category = | component3_name = | component3_material = | component3_material_category = | component4_name = | component4_material = | component4_material_category = | component5_name = | component5_material = | component5_material_category = | model_image1 = | model_image2 = | model_image3 = }}
