Introduction

This template is used to denote talent parameters that scale by the combatTalentScale function.

The template accepts up to six parameters, corresponding to those in the LUA code: low, high, power, add, shift, raw. It is assumed that the first two parameters will be fed to the template in the order specified above.

The first two parameters are required, and the rest are optional.

Basic Example

If the LUA code calls for

self:combatTalentScale(t, 4, 15)

then one should invoke the template in wiki markup with

{{CTS|4|15}}

which will produce the following text

4–15cTS

Note that any percentage signs must be inserted manually with the parameters.

Adjusting the Scaling Power

If the LUA code calls for a different scaling power as follows

combatTalentScale(t, 4, 15, 0.75)

then enter the wiki markup

{{CTS|4|15|0.75}}

which will turn into

4–15cTS:0.75P

If logarithmic scaling is to be used instead, then simply enter

{{CTS|4|15|log}}

to obtain

4–15cTS:log

Additional Parameters

Parameters 3, 4, 5, 6 are all left open, so you can use them to enter anything you can for add, shift and raw. Here is an example where all parameters have some value

combatTalentScale(t, 4, 15, 0.75, 1, 2, true)

so we can use the wiki markup

{{CTS|4|15|0.75|1A|2S|raw}}

to produce

4–15cTS:0.75P,1A,2S,raw

If we only have some of the optional parameters such as

combatTalentScale(t, 4, 15, 0.5, 0, 0, true)

then we can should the wiki markup

{{CTS|4|15|raw}}

where we have ignored the power=0.5 since that is the default value anyway.

Many chronomancer talents also apply a Paradox modifier, which you can indicate with PM in any of the free parameters.
