Talk:Lunar spells

Added the Under Construction tag as I intend to be working on this article over the next few hours. Shadowdancer 02:43, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Under Construction tag removed. Shadowdancer 06:06, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Need confirmation as to whether cure poison actually needs accept aid on or not.

Why do we call these magicks? Is that what they call them in the game? Because in the knowledge base it just says "Lunar Spells" -- Couchpotato99 15:37, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I was following the precedent set by Ancient Magicks. Shadowdancer 16:04, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I thought that was just because they were ancient and mysterious, hence "magicks"... ooh spooky! Anyways, can someone who's done the quest tell if they were called "magicks" in the quest, and if not, what they were called? -- Couchpotato99 17:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

What is the point of "Compare Ancient Magicks" at the top of the article? Its in some others and I don't get the concept. -- Couchpotato99 17:30, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Because Ancient Magicks are also a set of spells? Shadowdancer 17:32, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Infobox/articles for each Lunar spell?
Should I proceed to write up the seperate articles for each spell now? Consensus? Shadowdancer 06:06, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I think we should have infoboxes for each spell because it shows you the important info about the spell at a glance. And since it doesnt really work to put a bunch of infoboxes in an article (I tried with teleportation), we would need individual articles for each spell. -- Couchpotato99 17:33, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I started on an alternative way of showing spell groups Strike spells and how to tame multiple infoboxes with a CLEAR BREAK... see what you think? Ace of Risk 22:31, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Looks awesome. Oddlyoko 23:07, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by a "clear break"? Shadowdancer 12:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

If you want, I'm not sure we need individual pages for spells, except possibly NPC contact --Eucarya 08:06, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I believe that we agreed on an VfD page that individual spells needed their own articles anyways? Shadowdancer 14:15, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * There's nothing wrong with having them, but bear in mind they will be extremely underused! --Eucarya 17:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Comments on Lunar Magicks
Whilst the Ancient Magicks was actually fairly rubbish in terms of teleports (the only truly useful one Kharyll can be put in your house now), the Lunar Magicks teleports seem excellently placed. The only problem for most people is that they require very high magic level to properly use them. However, I can see that having Lunar Magicks set will cut my farming run time significantly - Fishing Guild teleport is closer to farming patch than Ardougne teleport, as is Catherby teleport. Additionally, no need for compost if you do have it set!

The waterbirth teleport will be extremely useful for collecting snape grass. Maybe even using the furnace/anvil too because it's a short boat ride and then there's the only furnace and anvil that are together in the same place in the game.

By far the most useful spell I can see so far though, is NPC contact.

The 'Vengeance Other' looks very 'Dark Mark' from Harry Potter doesn't it? Some of the very high level spells may be used to great effect in Wilderness pk teams. --Eucarya 08:06, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You say there's no need for compost if you're using the "Fertile Soil" spell, but what you fail to realize is that you're swapping buckets for runes. >_> Shadowdancer 12:09, 26 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Runes stack, buckets don't. It's also slightly cheaper than using super-compost if you buy your astrals at the shop.

Image?
Looks like both me and Shadowdancer have uploaded almost identical images. We have Image:Lunar-spells.PNG and Image:Lunar_spells.png. Suggest using one and deleting the other? --Eucarya 08:08, 25 July 2006 (UTC) Oh, looks like we've done the same with the Astral rune too hehee --Eucarya 09:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I never uploaded an Astral rune picture.... Shadowdancer 14:14, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I did. Delete image:Astral rune.PNG as it does not follow naming conventions. [[image:Green party hat.PNG|14px]] Hyenaste talk 23:13, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Table??
I'm just putting together a Full Spell List table for the new magic guide, before I fold it in I'll stick it here in case it helps --Eucarya 08:38, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Magicks, Magics or Spells
Ancient Magicks are called Magicks because they are ancient; in Ye Olde Englishe (Like the Middle Ages or whatever; I'm not an expert on premodern dialects, but you get the idea), people really did spell it magick. Jagex called them Magicks to give them that ye olde feel. As such, they are not a basis for precedent in this case.

I don't remember them being called Magicks in the quest; if they are, I'm a fool and you should all laugh at me. But since they aren't, this article shouldn't be called that. Magics or spells would be better...? 82.6.71.98 20:26, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * What is the basis for your argument, aside from the fact that I created the article? Shadowdancer 20:29, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh shut up shadowdancer, not everyone is out to get you. I agree with Mr. I.P. I asked this same question a while time ago, and you said the only reason was because ancient magicks were called magicks. Now that I know I am not the only person with this opinion, I believe Lunar Magicks should be moved to Lunar Spells. Ancient Magicks are named thusly because of the reason Mr. I.P. gave, but I don't believe that carries over into the Lunar spells. In the knowledge base, they are referred to as "Lunar spells." -- Couchpotato99 23:40, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I think the table that you put out is gonna help a bit, cause its not real organized. I'm gonna try to finish the spell pages soon =) Dreadnought 23:18, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Runes required?
we need to update the spell table to tell readers what runes are required for each spell i think a mix of eucarya's table and the existing one,

experience????
How much xp do you get for each spell? 11:04, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Different title?
Perhaps this article should be renamed as "Lunar Magicks". "Lunar Spells" may imply that the article is just about the spells, and not about the whole lunar magick. 06:28, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
