Forum:Mission Articles

The levels of the enemies, their stats and drops, can basically be handled by the enemy's own page, so it's not so necessary to handle here.

I would suggest:


 * Mission number
 * Mission name
 * Applicable days
 * World
 * Heart factor
 * Munny factor
 * EXP
 * Emblems
 * Treasures
 * Clear Bonuses
 * Random Bonuses
 * Enemies
 * Mission Summary
 * Mission Intel

And then a brief walkthrough for the mission on normal, for 100% completion

Then, for the Challenges
 * Objective
 * Restrictions
 * Sigil requirements

And another brief walkthrough.


 * Possibly video walkthroughs as well.

It might also be a good idea to amass plot summary for these, at least on the talk page - the total plot should be accumulated on the world and character pages, I guess. (For example, Agrabah has been hit by massive sandstorms, and Aladdin is leading the rebuilding.)

That should be easy enough to do. If you want to handle this as an infobox, I can try to make one Saturday, but this week is going to be hell for me. Glorious  CHAOS!  21:33, October 4, 2009 (UTC)
 * There should probably also be a see also, directory template, or category for missions of the same type - i.e., tests, recon, assassination, and heart-collection. Glorious  CHAOS!  22:17, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

Unneeded Sections

 * I think that anything that requires special instructions, like the Organization Emblem missions, Halloween Heartless, or boss fights, needs a video walkthrough. We don't have to actually upload it, though. I think those are the only things that are truly "hard" about the game - the rest of it is just timing and perseverance.

 * Mission such as "Collect hearts" need no such video walkthrough. -- Door To  Nothing Kupo! 03:37, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

True, they're mostly the same things. What about the recon missions? I actually think they are needed, but hey, that's my opinion.-- Ninja Sheik  03:39, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * Demyx gives special missions for finding all the Heartless within certain Halloween missions, and not all of them are required to MG the mission; I know I never found them until I went through walkthroughs, and I still had some trouble because the location was vague.
 * I've been trying to start a page for the tasks that Organization members give you, for item purposes. However, it might be a good idea to have it as an actual article (some kind of Mission EX), though we would need to agree on a name, and we could give descriptions of the rewards, and possibly a short walkthrough for when it's something beyond "Finish a mission".

 * Unfortunately, we have no official name. Perhaps each opportunity given by the members of Organization XIII for extra mission goals can be put in a sub-page of the corresponding mission's? However, that still leaves the Limit Break-related and synthesis-related information with no place. -- Door To  Nothing Kupo! 03:50, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * I meant all of those things in general; Xaldin's synthesis requests, Xigbar's trials, Axel's treasure hunts, etc. Plus, all of these operate based on what day-set it is, not what mission you're on, so doing it as Mission addendum's would be awkward. Glorious  CHAOS!  04:10, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * I meant to put the request that require the replaying of a specific mission in sub-pages, and put the others somewhere else. Or, we can put it all on one article, like you suggested. Makes sense, but won't it be a crowded article? -- Door To  Nothing Kupo! 04:13, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it would have a lot of entries, but most of them will be very short. Well, it would need to be made first anyway, so I'll keep working on my sandbox and we can decide when it's done. Glorious  CHAOS!  06:13, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

I think missions that have the player looking for something (Emblems, scouting, Demyx's extra goals and so on) would be nice to accompany with a video walkthough, since some people (especially younger visitors) might have trouble with written directions. Boss videos should probably be on their respective pages. I do agree in the long run, though...most of the Mission pages probably don't need one; I was mostly putting the heading in as a placeholder until something was done about it.

As for the extras, there are quite a few, but they're not terribly complicated or demanding. Would a simple list of "extra goals" for 358/2 Days perhaps work? Bebop Kate  06:20, November 14, 2009 (UTC)
