Nothing is clear, but very interesting

On Fandom, infoboxes are much simpler. It's very difficult here. Will there be some kind of /doc file with description and syntax of use? Do not understand why the default infobox with Gorgar the Ruthless is used? This is not written inside.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Belov7 (Contribs • User Talk) at May 2021‎.

I have never done any editing on Fandom so cant compare.
This template is based on Template:Creature and the intend is to make the change there.
The /doc is pretty much the same, with the addition of 'tiers' parameter that specify how many tiers the creature has.
Example here currently use |tiers = 3. It supports any number of tiers.
The ifobox with Gorgar is just an example that i quickly copypasted, to show how it works, its not part of the template. --Drono (talk) 18:04, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
In some instances, there is also a tier solo/duo. This is before the first one tier. Is it possible to use letters to denote tier in the template instead of a number? Belov7 (talk) 04:04, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
This is a template for the mob tiers, the mobs in solo/duo instances are tier 1. --Drono (talk) 06:23, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
Look, this mob - Khurthak has the following tiers:
solo/duo tier 1 LVL 121-130
3 man tier 1 LVL130 (has more moral than solo/duo tier 1 LVL 130)
3 man tier 2 LVL130
3 man tier 3 LVL130
3 man tier 4 LVL130
3 man tier 5 LVL130
And this is the same mob. Belov7 (talk) 06:34, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
Yes, thats right, however the goal of this change was adding the possibility to specify the tier, especially the higher ones - which is just a number.
I'm not familiar with editing creatures on the wiki, will try look around and maybe come up with something for the fellowship size also. --Drono (talk) 07:18, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
Everything is logical there. There is no solo/duo tier 2. And the following tiers are obtained:
solo/duo
tier 1
tier 2
tier 3
tier 4
tier 5
Is it possible to use letters in tier indication? Belov7 (talk) 07:25, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
Yes, usually only the highest group size have tiers. But for example skirmishes have tiers for all group sizes. It is possible to use anything as tier indicator.--Drono (talk) 07:52, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
