Hello there
After getting some response in the Advanced Player Discussion i was told i should post this here.
Link to the old thread: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=24781
I've been working, the last half year or so, on a new WS Chart.
--> http://psymia.mine.nu
About 3 Years ago when i first started to get interrested in WS's i found a file called wse.pdf
I've used that one ever since.
But over the time and with new expansions comming out this chart is a bit outdated.
So i made a new one.
One thing i ever wanted to be in a WS-Chart is to be able to "see" how "good" a WS is. Not "good" in the sense of "this WS gives this and this effect" but more the "RAW-dmg-good". I'm still missing BLU-Magic DMG and Staff-DMG.
SMN is in the works (doing lots of tests with a friend)
I'd be happy about every feedback i can get.

Some preventive explanations about feedback i already got:
------------------------------------------------
About the size.
I know it's big, but i dont think it's too big to be impractical.
The size is so that it fits well on an A3.
You can print it on an A4 and still can read it. (But your printer need's to be good enought)
For those who dont have a Color-printer.
A black/white version will come as soon as the dmg-stuff is finished.
------------------------------------------------
About the layout.
Upperside --> DD / Advanced Class Weapons.
Middle Part --> SMN / PUP / BLU
Lower Part --> Weapons everyone starts with (Club, Staff, Sword, Dagger)
The rest i just fitted in where i could (like archery/markmanship)
I also had some problems with arranging the WS's that have 3 elements (now all in the left column)
------------------------------------------------
The DMG-part is purely the RAW-DMG a WS does. Not how well it performs within a SC or how good it is if you stack it with SA.
I know that with different TP multis differnt WS's are differntly "good".
I just didnt know how i could put them so you can see it.
In the first beta i had every MOD and every TP-multiplier in the chart (you can think it was BIG....)
I hope someday i find a solution to how i can display it without wasting too much space.
I thought about leaving the dmg part out.
But if you're planning a SC and dont really know how "good" a WS is, it helps to have a "vague" pointer.
Maybe i have to put in a note that the dmg-indicator is not to be seen too serious.
-----------------------------------------------------
I know there are SC-calculators (i use the firefox extension myself).
I just dont like them :D
I just think i can display more information in a more readable way than with a calculator.
(And a chart does not need... you know.. power to run )
