Description
For items, it would be cool if there was a "found it", "made it" button for sets/uniques and crafted items/runewords respectively. This would pop a simple form with additional optional fields for area, monster, monster rarity (unique, champion, minion, normal, superunique) that use the db search lookup, and a screenshot (optional), difficulty, and a checkbox for current ownership, (and if possible the character you found it with). On form submission, there are several db updates, one is for a new table with columns for item, source mob, difficulty, and drop-count, a second updates the item table (potentially adding a screenshot if none existed) as well as a total seen counter column, and the third writes to a table with user, item, found (grail checkoff), in_possession (bool for whether the user indicated they held onto it).
The first table can later be used to add drop rate data in a new module both on the item and the monster db entry pages (so the item would show which monsters have dropped it and how often, and the monster page would show possible item drops from that monster with incident rates). The third table would allow for features like a grail icon next to the item name if the user has found the given item, or a custom filter on the item db to just show items you've found or currently own, or (if they uploaded a screenshot) if they click trade from that item, it auto-populates all but the request part of the create trade UI. While all of the ways to render the data collected can be done later, I would prioritize the new form to collect the data asap. You want to start collecting that at launch on thursday (with the data stored as a line in a log file if needed).
The other idea I had was in letting folks have multiple characters linked in their profile (I'll be playing at least 4/5 in the next month) with each character having a name, class, and level (and later equipment and skills if desired).
If you need a hand quickly hacking either of these things together, I should be able to help out (though I don't normally work on the front-end).

Can be used to make Runewords:
