===1===
This parameter selects a preset method of degradation, options for which can be overridden or tweaked. The generic and specific presets are detailed below.
==Named==
The following named parameters are broken down into groups by their purpose.
===Behaviour===
===expenditure===
Details the start of the blurb for how the item expends charges. By default, this is "Once depleted", unless the item's type is "break", in which case it changes to "Once completely degraded"
====type====
Valid inputs are ''break'', ''revert'', ''dust'', ''bonus'', corresponding to the four main types of degradation behaviour, with the addition of ''bonusCharges'' detailed below.
* '''break:''' The equipment breaks and requires repair.
* '''revert:''' The equipment reverts to a component when it loses all charge.
* '''dust:''' The equipment turns to dust or vanishes when all charges are expended.
* '''charges:''' The equipment requires charges to be used.
* '''bonus:''' The equipment acts as a charged item but some functionality remains in its depleted state, such as the [[Amulet of glory]] and [[Craw's bow]]
====tradeability====
Input options are ''empty'', ''full'', ''fullEmpty'', ''notCombined'', ''none'', corresponding to the four main types of degradation behaviour.
* '''empty:''' The equipment can only be traded when completely depleted.
* '''full:''' The equipment can only be traded when fully repaired/charged.
* '''fullEmpty:''' The equipment can only be traded when either fully repaired/charged or completely depleted.
* '''notCombined:''' The equipment cannot be traded whilst it is combined.
* '''none:''' Doesn't display anything about tradeability, and overrides any preset attempting to.
Tradeability descriptions aren't given for items where degradation doesn't affect their charge such as Rings of Recoil (is tradeable regardless of charge), and items such as Arclight (isn't tradeable in any capacity), as these behaviours fall within the normal game mechanics.

===Revert-specific===
====component====
Only relevant if type is ''revert'', describes the component that the item reverts into, and links to that item.
====componentText====
When using a component, componentText can be used to override the text displayed for the component link.
===Display===
====text====
Completely overrides the text for the details.
====textAppend====
Appends a new line containing the given text at the end of the details.
====pic====
Overrides the picture to the left, will still link to the [[Degradation]] page regardless.
====plural====
When value is yes, changes text in the text box to be applicable to be plural, allowing you to place it on a page discussing a group of items that behave identically.

==Demonstrations==
===Presets===
Generic presets cover the four primary outlines of degradation.
<pre>break, dust, revert, charges</pre>
{{Degrades|break}}
{{Degrades|dust}}
{{Degrades|revert}}
{{Degrades|charges}}

===Specific Presets===
Generally, specific instances are added for items which share a common source or item type and method of degradation.
====Crystal====
<pre>crystalWeapon, crystalArmour, crystalTool, crystalWeapon|expenditure=Once attacks against you deplete its charges</pre>
{{Degrades|crystalWeapon}}
{{Degrades|crystalArmour}}
{{Degrades|crystalTool}}
''A special case must be made for the crystal shield.''
{{Degrades|crystalWeapon|expenditure=Once attacks against you deplete its charges}}
====Barrows, Wilderness, Toxic, ToxicHelm====
<pre>barrows, wilderness, toxic, toxicHelm</pre>
{{Degrades|barrows}}
{{Degrades|wilderness}}
{{Degrades|toxic}}
{{Degrades|toxicHelm}}
====Jewellery====
<pre>jewelleryDust, jewelleryCharges</pre>
{{Degrades|jewelleryDust}}
{{Degrades|jewelleryCharges}}
====Powered Weapon====
<pre>poweredWeapon</pre>
{{Degrades|poweredWeapon}}

==Manual Examples==
===Tentacle Whip===
Use "revert" as a base and describe the item's behaviour in more detail.
<pre>{{Degrades|revert|expenditure=After 10,000 attacks|tradeability=notCombined|component=Kraken tentacle|pic=Kraken tentacle}}</pre>
{{Degrades|revert|expenditure=After 10,000 attacks|tradeability=notCombined|component=Kraken tentacle|pic=Kraken tentacle}}
