TOPIC: Token Database 2.0

I'm not sure exactly what is intended by the "Classification: Equippable" designation - however I wonder if the following tokens (mostly Musical Instruments, Wands, Weapons, and some bric-a-brac) should have Classification: Equippable?

Some of them certainly seem like they should to me like Shaman's Arcane Hat, +1 Fae Blowgun Flute and various thrown weapons.

Avernon's +3 Cherry Bomb should have Classification: Food?

Also, either it shouldn't have Classification: Weapon, or the Potion Green/Black Dragon's Breath and Potion Thor's Retort should?

Should this have Classification: Affects Class Talent?

+4 to hit with Spell or Scroll slides for room

Matthew Hayward wrote: The following tokens do not have a "Usable By:" class information field:
{a bunch of artifacts}

There are roughly half a dozen living, active players on the entire planet Earth that can use an Artifact. The decision to not have a Usable By tag for Artifacts was deliberate.

Rule of Thumb: If something looks weird on an artifact's info on the TDb, it's probably by design. I tend to leave artifacts alone because their use is between their respective owners and Jeff.

Note sure about Damage Bonus : Missile vs. Damage Bonus : Ranged.

It seems like "missile" should only apply to physical projectiles, and "ranged" should apply to spells?

These tokens have Damage Bonus : Missile:

Matthew Hayward wrote: The following tokens do not have a "Classification:" in TokenDB:
{mostly monster trophies and artifacts}

As I have mentioned previously, not everything fits neatly into an existing Classification. Artifacts most definitely fall under that umbrella.
Rule of Thumb: If someone sees something in an artifact description that's flat out wrong, by all means let me know. But if it's just weird, it's probably best to let it go because artifacts are just plain weird.

It's my general opinion that creating a "category" that only one or two tokens will fit into is kind of silly. I'm also not fond of creating redundant information. E.g., I see no reason to add a "monster trophy" value under Classification because that information already exists under Rarity. The lists for Rarity:Monster Trophy and Classification:Monster Trophy would be identical.

Since dust seems like it might have legs, I made a Classification value for it.

Ioun Stone Glass Sphere is now equippable

None of the Orbs of Dragonkind have a Classification. Without knowing what they do, discussing a Classification value for them seems like a waste of time.

These are the current Classification values:

• Affects Class Talent
• Ammunition
• Dust
• Equippable
• Food
• Gear
• GP Value
• Holy Symbol
• Liquid
• Musical Instrument
• Rumor
• Scroll
• Shield
• Trade 1
• Trade 2
• Trade 3
• Trade 4
• Truecraft
• Wand
• Weapon

Admittedly, it is a little nebulous. As a sorta-kinda-rule-but-don't-quote-me-on-this-because-it's-not-always-the-case, "Equipable" is something worn/placed in a recognized slot and/or recorded on the party card.

Thrown-only (including alchemical) weapons and single-use items are not defined as Equippable.
Holy Symbols are not defined as Equippable.
Wands are not defined as Equippable.

It was decided that bard instruments are not equippable, but since +1 Fae Blowgun Flute is also a weapon, it's (now) equippable.

Shaman's Arcane Hat is now equippable.

A Classification for Averon’s +3 Cherry Bomb is hard to pin down, but food seems reasonable.

I think Potion Green/Black Dragon's Breath and Potion Thor's Retort are best left as potions.

Dust of the Elders now affects casters' class talents

You are going to eat a lit Cherry Bomb?
