Category talk:Celestial weapons

Drop locations
I just got a set of rare Celestial Daggers from a Mantid Drone just outside of Nahpui Quarter, in Wajjun Bazaar. Screenshot available on request. I don't know where all they can drop (that was the first celestial item I've gotten at all), but it's not true that they can only drop in Nahpui Quarter. --adeyke 23:48, 5 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I got one in the undercity ages ago &mdash; Skuld  02:46, 6 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I got a celestial longbow from the vermins near Senji's corner.
 * So far I've got from a Scepter from a Vermin and a Sword from a Canthan Chests in Xaquang Skyway. Well... it makes sense to me that celestial items drop in the 'skyway'. Mithran 05:37, 21 October 2006 (CDT)

Essence
I don't know how to add it to the article properly, but Celestial Essence should be in there too.


 * They aren't blue with white stars around them as the category description states. This category is just for the weapons with "Celestial" in their name. - [[Image:Savio_3_mini.gif]] Savio  05:39, 21 October 2006 (CDT)

Looks
Is it just me, or are all of these rediculously ugly? I dunno, maybe I'm warped, but I'd take a Zodiac item anyday. --Mgrinshpon 12:45, 22 October 2006 (CDT)


 * Meh, the zodiacs are too shiny and golden, too much bling. I prefer these in terms of the staff and bow, their appearances > zodiac in my opinion. Kamahl the Fist 20:28, 3 December 2006 (CST)

Celestial Offhand Item
There are no items for casters with this skin, only warrior shilds, right? thats weird, why are there scepters but no idols or sth. like that? -- Zerpha The Improver 09:55, 17 April 2007 (CDT)
 * aparently, there is none, quite a shame. Grima.worm@seznam.cz 11:40, 1 May 2007 (CDT)

Historical note template
&larr; Moved from Template talk:Historical celestial item drops (deleted)

What's the point of this? Just subst/paste it into all the articles, no need to keep this template around. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 00:25, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * I figured there would be some quibbling about the wording of the text. There's been a couple of cases when someone has updated the text of an article ...and not realized there were 10 other pages with an identical note. I figured that it's easier to start with a template and decide to subst than the other way 'round.  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 01:32, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, so you were planning on doing that eventually. Never mind me, then.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 01:56, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it was good that you said something...at the very least, I should have mentioned (talk or comment) ...to avoid the need for a nvm &mdash; my apologies for leaving room for doubt.  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 03:00, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * I just thought of a simpler method - use dpl section inclusion like we do for Nick the Traveler or login announcements on the Main Page. Put the note itself on Celestial Axe (alphabetical superiority) and dpl-include it across the others.  Eliminates need for a template at all, and allows for consistency ad perpetuum.  [edit] I just realized it's on the category page, too.  That would make a better choice of "source" for all the weapon pages include from.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 16:34, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Awesome idea! That will also work well for other situations in which we try to keep similar/identical text (some skill synergies, other items with similar rarity/properties, some monster notes, etc.).  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 18:48, December 11, 2009 (UTC)
