Talk:Bosses

I suggest that only summary information and lore appears in this article for each boss, which a link to the appropriate walkthrough article(s) that contain detailed mechanical information. AlexiStukov 15:15, 29 January 2011 (PST)

It would look cool if you just put the name of the boss in the chapter leading to an individual page completely about them.--Dethklok52 17:55, 29 January 2011 (PST)

Also, when writing about the bosses, you shouldn't address yourself, its impolite.

I apologize for just posting this on your talk, but arent you missing some info? Chapter 1's boss might be the Beholder for the tutorial, but at the end of the level is a Cave Troll acting as boss. And Chapter 4's boss may be The Machine but even if it's gone the warlock becomes the real fight. Shouldn't they be included as well?

I'm pretty sure the Warlocks aren't unique in any way, other than more HP for the 'boss'. No special strategy needed. Xaxor 19:43, 8 February 2011 (PST)

Original Author of the work here. I posted this topic on Reddit a couple of days ago and suggested that it would make a good addition to the wiki. Apologies for the improper usage of pronouns, but I didn't think the thread would grow as much as it did. That said, I'm not particularly in the mood to go back through it all and edit it. However, anyone else is welcome to. Link to the reddit thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/magicka/comments/fav6b/magicka_boss_and_general_strategies/

• I'm OP, skodr aka Kyle.

One person should standardize the entries. I understand it's a wiki, but the writing styles are all over the place. All of the Spells should be turned into icons probably (QFASSS for example). Somewhat unrelated to this page, we may want to write a Standard Spell Template, as in, how a Spell should be organized (order of elements), how it should be cast (even if we all know what AoE means, it should be clearer, perhaps the full button press), and whatever else may be helpful.

Today i made some cleanup for this page(IMO it's a cleanup as i made some wikification and stuff, asked by admins on top of the page). To finish it i need firstly someones opinion about how modified parts look now. Also, such things like [Edit] buttons are annoying when they appear after each subsection. That's for the view. To the content - yes, i'm removing that FPPOV entries or remaking them to look better. And ye, for newcomers it's probably strange and unknown seeing things like 'AOE' - would be better to have something like 'See also' in the end of each page. So, for now - need your opinion, gentlemen -- [Aeon Industries] 14:51, 4 June 2011 (PDT)

The main problem is that the boss strategies on this page (Bosses) isn't necessarily accurate or effective, or that multiple listed strategies are really the same strategy using a slightly different spell - I would suggest that that the strategies and statistical data of all the bosses found on the chapter walkthroughs (http://www.magickapedia.net/wiki/Chapter_One onwards) be brought over or linked. The data in the entire walkthrough are verified by Ket and me via both playing against the bosses countless hours, as well as looking through the disassembled Magicka source code. (Also see suggestion by AlexiStukov at the very top of this talk page.) - Xinhuan 21:19, 4 June 2011 (PDT)
