Talk:Item suffix

(Forgive me if I mess up an edit of this page -- it's my first time fiddling with the content of WoWWiki in any way.)

There are a few new suffixes now, I think as of 2.1. I know I've seen "of the Knight", on the Deathwing Brood Cloaks you can get from the Blade's Edge Skyguard content hub. I know that it has stamina, defense, and damage-and-healing. The WoWHead page for those cloaks shows the stats:

Someone wrote an NB failing to believe that "of the Sorcerer", "of the Sun" & "of the Vision" have identical stats. I can confirm they have, the sources these suffixes come from are different however. "Of the Sorcerer" can be found on random greens from outland like the other suffixes. "Of the Sun" can only be found on items dropped by Fenissa the Assassin. "of the Vision" can only be found on items inside Outcast's Cache. Ithilian 19:43, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Just thinking that the rant at the bottom of the page about warlocks drain spells and +healing should be removed and people re-directed to the warlock page or something. The Retard

Complete Suffix List
Here is a complete (to my knowledge) list of the suffixes as of patch 3.3, many of which are not represented on the suffix page. I'm not really sure of the best way to organize them. Wkrick (talk) 21:33, February 15, 2010 (UTC)

I've accounted for every one of these in the current revision of the page (to the best of my knowledge!) I think we're pretty set here. --Drolfeir (talk) 12:15, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Section Ordering
Should we put sections talking about the current content first, (e.g. Cata then Wrath then BC then Classic)?

Also, when doing random classic instance, one gets a bag in which there is a blue item. Even if the content is from classic, sometimes the suffix is from the list of BC-suffix. Might it be better to merge all the sections together? or maybe put section according to the number of stats on the items (e.g. single stat suffix, two stat suffix, ...)? and ending with deprecated suffixes (e.g. defense, blocking, ...)?

 * I think this is a good idea, this page could stand to be thoroughly reorganized, especially since everything is revamped since the Shattering/Cataclysm changes.
 * I have thoroughly organized the new four-stat item suffixes with high lvl cata gear, but I haven't gone through the three-or-less stat changes and additions. I hope what I have put in helps though, especially since current databases are showing incorrect three-stat info.

Related to this, I think it wouldn't hurt to break out the class preference section into it's own table. That's something I could get on. Put it at the top where it's accessible to newer players? or at the bottom?

Class preferences
With a little more polish, links, and perhaps suffixes roughly in order of power, etc. --Drolfeir (talk) 09:06, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
