Talk:Skill

/Archive. Much of the discussion really belonged to GuildWiki talk:Style and formatting/Skills anyways, and are no longer relavent.

Tear down the Article!
I would like to suggest that we break apart this article into it's proper pieces. I really don't like it and have developed a personal grudge with it. :) I believe Activation Time, Recharge and so forth should be their own articles and not sections in an uber article about everything skill-related. Instead of deleting Skill type we should be breaking this into articles dealing with the appropriate aspects of each. In this article we can just include links to those articles and a brief explanation of each if we need to. --Karlos 15:57, 2 November 2005 (EST)

Dupe TOCs
Is there any way to deal with this? 69.124.143.230 10:26, 20 February 2006 (CST)
 * ?? I don't follow, I see only one TOC on the article's page.  --Rainith 10:35, 20 February 2006 (CST)


 * For some reason at the Skill Anatomy section I see a duplicate TOC. Does anybody else?  69.124.143.230 10:37, 20 February 2006 (CST)
 * That's odd, it seems to be gone now. 69.124.143.230 10:23, 22 February 2006 (CST)
 * The dupe TOC is caused by the float-right TOC in the skill details article, which is included in this article. It's back now, but I'll go fix it. -PanSola 12:48, 22 February 2006 (CST)


 * Ahhh, I finally get what all the noinclude tags were for. Oi vey, I've been using wikis for like eight months now and I never fully got that bit.  Oi.  69.124.143.230 06:17, 24 February 2006 (CST)
 * Go register an account evan... even if it's a numeric one like 180.58... -PanSola 17:04, 24 February 2006 (CST)

Cost - Sacrifice & Exhaustion
I would classify both Sacrifice and Exhaustion as spell costs, like Adrenaline and Energy. Whether or not the spell is successful, both are deducted at casting time in addition to the Energy cost. - Evil_Greven 15:20, 6 March 2006 (CST)


 * Just a tiny note &mdash; sacrifice is not deducted at casting time, but rather only when the spell or skill activates successfully. 15:24, 6 March 2006 (CST)
 * Such as when a spell is interrupted by Shame? I stand corrected. - User:Evil_Greven - 15:26, 6 March 2006 (CST)


 * Another difference between sacrifice and the rest that just occured to me &mdash; sacrifice never prevents a skill from being used. I think sacrifice is more like a penalty than a cost. 15:44, 6 March 2006 (CST)
 * That's probably the most accurate description. A Necromancer can kill himself pretty easily with Sacrifice skills (although, sometimes it's a tactic rather than penalty) - Evil_Greven 16:04, 6 March 2006 (CST)
