Talk:Wilderness Golem
EXP Clarifications Repeatedly Blocked?
I've noticed there seems to be something of an edit-war going on with this page and wanted to see if it could be cleared up via a discussion.
The purpose of a game wiki is to document information about a game, which might then be used to improve the experience for players and fans in general. But challenges can sometimes arise over disputes of formatting, clarity, and factually. In this case, the dispute is over how best to present the EXP granted by defeating a Wilderness Golem.
From a player's perspective, a Wilderness Golem gives 1 EXP. This is because, at least as of time of writing this, they only spawn on farms, and all EXP gained on farms is reduced by 1/3. So even though they 'technically' give 5 EXP from a datamining perspective, they will, in practice, never give this amount. This makes the current presentation of the information highly misleading, as players browsing the page will see "XP: 5" and go "Ah, golems are five times better for grinding than bats!" And thus make decisions based on inaccurate information, which can lead to much frustration. In the case of a challenge run, this frustration can be elevated even further.
