Combo Tables

I used class="wikitable" to get the general table formatting (thin borders, grey backgrounds on headers). Comments? Suggestions? --Konoko 02:00, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Looks much better like this. I'm still questioning my use of colors in the tables. At the very least they ought to be changed to a paler hue, like the blue in the nav bar. Now to add a little more detail to the combo effects! -Pythe 14:42, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

I'm thinking about combining the combo attack tables... I'll throw an idea at the bottom here, after I sketch it out here... -Pythe 15:13, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

Stalker

Combined Combo Table

This seems reasonable, if hard to read. Perhaps seperate each combo into its own table? Or color each main rows alternately? -Pythe

Still hard to read with colors. Comments? -Pythe

This is a tricky concept to get across. Personally, I find the Power Name/Icon confusing, in isolation. They only way I really get a sense of a power is seeing it in the context of the whole powerset. So, an ideal chart for me would look something like this...
Powers Weaken Empower Attack Vitals Sweep
DualBlades LightOpening.png Nimble Slash 1 1
DualBlades ModerateOpening.png Power Slice 2
DualBlades ModerateBridge.png Ablating Strike 2 2 1
DualBlades AoEBridge.png Typhoon's Edge 3 3
DualBlades FollowUp.png Blinding Feint 3
Confront
DualBlades Special1.png Vengeful Slice 2
DualBlades Special2.png Sweeping Strike 3
DualBlades HighLow.png One Thousand Cuts 1
