What do people think of this? I can see three possible advantages to it:

  • It seems more bot-friendly, though it may have to be made to include HD if we want to derive spell damages for it (I'm not sure there).
  • It better shows the relative frequency of spells, i.e. that ice fiends can be expected to spam their bolts of cold at you, or that hell sentinels have a reasonable probability to use their melee spell.
  • It's a little neater.

Anyway, do people think it's worth putting this in articles? If not, I can gladly delete this page. -Ion frigate 18:48, 23 January 2013 (CET)
