# Using archeagechroniclesdata.com in guides, blogs, forums and videos

archeagechroniclesdata.com is a free ArcheAge Chronicles database (Early Access · build 26495283) read from the game's own files: items with their stats, where to get them and what they go into, and the other sections listed in https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/llms.txt. Every card, table and embed below shows the data of the current game build and updates itself after each patch. Free to use in guides, videos, blogs, wikis and forums — keep the visible link to archeagechroniclesdata.com that every format carries. Unofficial fan site, not affiliated with XLGAMES; game data and art belong to XLGAMES.

## 1. Find the thing you want

Every item has its own page: `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/<id>-<name>` (the game's item ID, then the English name in lower case with hyphens). Example: https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale. Take the address from the page or from the site search (its index is https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/search.json, an array of `{"label","sub","href","words","rank","icon"}`; `href` is the page path).

- By section and slug, a link that never breaks: `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/<section>.<slug>`, for example https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/items.13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale (permanent redirect to the page). By name: `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/<Name>` opens the page with exactly that name (spaces as `%20`), else the closest match.
- Card data as JSON: `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/tooltip/<section>/<slug>` (CORS open), for example https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/tooltip/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale. Fields: `name`, `kind` and `sub` ("Legendary Elemental Staff"), `color` (the grade's colour), `icon` (a path under the site), `chips`, `groups` (the card's lines: `p` label and value, `d` the game's text, `h` a heading, `n` a note, `c` chips), `foot`, `key` (3–6 key lines), `version` (the game build), `section`, `slug`, `url` (the page address).
- Names to cards: https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/tooltip/names.json = `{"version":"Early Access · build 26495283","names":{"Exact Name":"<section>/<slug>", …}}` (names of 4 or more characters; plain words like "Glider" left out; a name shared by an item in the Early Access game and one not in it yet goes to the first).
- Datasets (JSON, same numbers as the pages): https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/raw/index.json lists them all; each is `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/raw/<name>.json`.

## 2. Reddit, Discord, Steam guide, forum post, YouTube description (no code)

On any item page press **Copy ▾** next to the name. The menu gives the same card in every format below — the examples are the real output for Wrathful Tyrant's Scale.

**Link** — https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale. Discord, Reddit, Telegram and Notion show a preview with the card's stats.

**Reddit (Markdown)** — paste into a post or comment (limit 10,000 characters):

```markdown

```

**Discord** — the masked link keeps its preview; the `-#` line is Discord's small print:

```markdown
**[Wrathful Tyrant's Scale](https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale)** — Item level 80, Physical ATK 8, Magic ATK 72, Fire ATK 10

```

**HTML** — a plain link; with our script (section 4) it shows the card on hover:

```html
<a href="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale">Wrathful Tyrant&#39;s Scale</a>
```

**Picture** — the card in the game's look as a PNG (copied to the clipboard, or downloaded), and a 1200×630 picture for a post. Drawn in your browser.

## 3. Lists: many things at once

**+ List** next to Copy collects cards while you browse (kept in your browser, up to 100). The **List** button at the bottom right reorders them and exports all at once; a list also has its own address: https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/list?i=items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale,items/14103102-wrathful-tyrants-fang

Reddit table:

```markdown

## 4. Hover cards on a blog or site (one script)

Add once, before `</body>`: `<script src="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/tooltips.js" async></script>`. Every link to an item page of archeagechroniclesdata.com then shows the game's tooltip on hover (first tap on phones), and the link gets the item's icon and grade colour. The script loads only the cards; it sends nothing anywhere.

Options: `<script>window.archeageDataTooltips = { autolink: true, theme: "dark" }</script>` before the script, or attributes on the script tag (`data-theme="light"`, `data-icon-links="false"`).

| Option | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| `colorLinks` | `true` | colour our links by grade |
| `iconLinks` | `true` | a small icon before each link; `iconSize` is `"small"` or `"medium"` |
| `renameLinks` | `true` | a link whose text is the bare address gets the thing's name |
| `theme` | `"auto"` | `"auto"`, `"dark"` or `"light"`; auto follows the reader's dark mode and your page background |
| `touch` | `true` | phones: first tap shows the card, a second tap on the same link opens it, a tap elsewhere closes it |
| `autolink` | `false` | link item names found in `article, .entry-content, .post` (or in any block marked `data-archeagedata-autolink`) |
| `brand` | `true` | the line under a card with our site's name and a link to it |

What the script looks for:

- any link to `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/…` and `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/…`;
- `data-archeagedata="items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale"` on any element: a card for that thing (any card section); `data-no-tip` or `data-archeagedata="none"` turns it off;
- `<a href="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale" data-archeagedata-card>Wrathful Tyrant's Scale</a>`: the full card in place (the link stays inside it);
- `<div data-archeagedata-list="items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale,items/14103102-wrathful-tyrants-fang"></div>`: a table of cards (icon, name, type, key stats), each row linking to its page;
- `data-archeagedata-autolink` on a block: item names in its text become links (the first time each appears; never in headings, links or code).

## 5. Embeds without a script

- oEmbed: `https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/oembed?url=<page address>&format=json` answers a rich embed (an iframe) for every card page, so editors with oEmbed (WordPress, Notion, Ghost, Discourse) show the card when you paste the link.
- The iframe itself: `<iframe src="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/embed?r=items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale" width="360" height="540" style="border:0;max-width:100%" loading="lazy"></iframe>` (a card — the height /oembed gives for a card fits it; `/embed?l=items/13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale,items/14103102-wrathful-tyrants-fang` a table).

## 6. Forums: one BBCode tag

phpBB 3.3 (ACP → Posting → BBCodes): usage `[aac={SIMPLETEXT}]{TEXT}[/aac]`, HTML replacement `<a href="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/{SIMPLETEXT}">{TEXT}</a>`; members write `[aac=items.13104102-wrathful-tyrants-scale]Wrathful Tyrant's Scale[/aac]`. XenForo 2: a BB code `aac` with option, HTML replacement `<a href="https://archeagechroniclesdata.com/go/{option}">{text}</a>`.
