Shall we stub this? [Dr Titan|Dr Titan]

Move
Can we get a few examples how the term is capitalized ingame? In the Oct 27 update they are referred to as "Hero Trainers". Unless we find an ingame example showing otherwise I'd say we move the article to Hero skill trainer. To capitalize Skill, but not trainer, makes little sense to me. -- 02:31, 8 November 2006 (CST)
 * "Hero skill trainer" is fine with me. I suggested "Hero Skill trainer"... because of Skill trainer I guess. Yea, you're right. Capitalizing the "S" and not the "T" looks weird. The in-game tag to these npcs are "Hero Skills". -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 03:24, 8 November 2006 (CST)
 * We all know that ANet's capitalization is very inconsistent, both ingame as well as in game update descriptions. We may find that they are spelled "Hero Trainer" in one place, "Hero trainer", "Hero Skill trainer" or "Hero skill trainer" elsewhere. I'd suggest that we move to hero skill trainer and allow for redirects from other variations of capitalization. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 04:07, 8 November 2006 (CST)
 * If the ones who provide the training are called a "Hero Trainer" in-game, why not make that the article name, and this be a redirect to that article? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:24, 30 November 2006 (CST)

Unlocked Skills
Dont you find annoying that already unlocked skills are shown without a tag, and actually you can waist your points "unlocking" them. I suggest to put a "bug" tag about that. - Coran Ironclaw 02:45, 5 December 2006 (CST)
 * It's "waste" :P and it's not really a bug. It's just something they didn't put in. I remember reading about this in GWGuru about them planning to put it in later. I'll add the note (you could've just added the note instead putting here ya know...). -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 03:00, 5 December 2006 (CST)
 * sorry for my english. I think it is a bug since you give a hero point away and you receive nothing in change. Or maybe i have not clear what is a bug. - Coran Ironclaw 06:42, 5 December 2006 (CST)
 * This is intended as your character learns the skills aswell. Xioden 07:56, 5 December 2006 (CST)
 * I missed that part. Ty - Coran Ironclaw 02:15, 6 December 2006 (CST)
 * This appears to be fixed. I don't see skills I've already unlocked in the trainers now. BlueNovember 17:46, 6 December 2006 (CST)
 * Yes and No, seems you don't see the skill offered if your PvE character has already learn the skill, but otherwise does show. For example, if "My Character A" is a W/Me that has already learnt Hammer Bash (say during a Prophecies quest), then Pikin in Kamadan won't show it, however if I then switch over the "My Character B" (same account) who is a R/Mo and never learnt Hammer Bash, then still shows the skill (even though all heros with Warrior profession would already have access to Hammer Bash since was unlocked by "My Character A"). So there appears to still be some confusion over heros and their "global" access to unlocked skills. --Wolfie 04:04, 8 December 2006 (CST)

Question
If you spend hero skill points on unlocking a skill for a hero. Will it then also unlock it for your PvP only characters? Or will it only unlock the skill for your heroes? -- DamadmOO 05:22, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * If the character you are spending the points with has the same profession (Either primary or secondary) as the skill you are unlocking, it will unlock it for use on your PvP characters - GregPalo 05:28, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * You can also use it on the pve character you unlocked it with. Randomtime 14:43, 8 January 2007 (CST)
 * This page says "unlocks the skill for the game account and gives the skill to the character using the hero skill point". The latter should be clarified to be either "to the hero using the skill point" or "to the character and hero using the skill point" (I thought it was the former, but if not, Hero skill point needs clarification as well). Basically just due to that tricky distinction between "unlocked for PvE character" and "available to PvE character" (your main character still has to buy/quest/capture unlocked skills, while heroes have all unlocked skills available to them). -- Peej 09:21, 23 January 2007 (CST)
 * Umm... that page is correct... when you unlock a skill using a hero skill point, the skill gets unlocked for your account (meaning all your heroes will have access) and additionally the character performing the unlock learns that skill. -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 19:40, 23 January 2007 (CST)
