Now that the new ranking system is running, how about a head-to-head player comparison by stat?
I see its utility for people looking for gear upgrades and have a pinnacle player they want to compare to.


--Edit, my example jacked up when all the spaces were ganked by the forum software so I took it out

Thanks Bandeko for your suggestion.

Sorry you could not add your example. Can you give us a little more details?
Do you have in mind a way to see a quick table with the characters respective statistics? Would you like to compare more than 2 characters?

Thanks for your help!

Pick Characters by profile IDs, or by lookup (but why make it hard on yourself, we can look up the IDs)
I was only thinking about comparing 2 characters at a time, one stat at a time. Didn't want something that would get unwieldy to write, or to read.

Was thinking something along the lines of:

<Stat Select Drop Down Box>

Bandeko +870 Spell DamageUberWizardNameToCompare +1024Spell Damage
[ - ]Ear #1 Tarnished Garnet Earring+37 [ - ]Boneshard Earstud +30
Tarnished Garnet Earring +37 Boneshard Earstud +30

[ - ]Ear #2 Tarnished Garnet Earring +67 [ - ]Twisted Beryl Earring+19
Tarnished Garnet Earring +37 Twisted Beryl Earring +19
Polished Stone of the Eleventh Hour +10Bloodied Stone of Might+0
The Tears of Alaris +20None+0
[ + ] Neck Light Touched Necklace +51[ + ] Polished Platinum Links +19

Or with the slots on a line with the total stats and the drill downs for the specifics might be cleaner.

Thanks Bandeko! We think this kind of tool would be indeed a great addition to the website. Our hands are a little full at the moment but we will keep you posted on our progress.

Go Back to your old system, the new 1 blows, to much of a time sink IMO for me. Dont think I will bother renewing as it has become to time intensive...my 2 cents worth.

Agreed, the old system was much better.
