not too good with wikicode, but i can confirm that a mesmer in the costume brawl area has the following skills (in this order):overload,wastrel's worry,cry of frustration,power spike,energy burn,ether feast,lyssa's aura and empathy. hope this helps ;)90.209.236.206 20:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Looks like ANet taking full advantage of some skill functionality updates for this year's costume brawl. :] (T/C) 20:22, 24 October 2008 (UTC) yeah from personal experience i have found that most of the build were some of the most popular(excluding the smiter)builds for pvp =P90.209.236.206 20:32, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * also, i have found that mesmers get the enorcelling staff weapon,warriors get a shield of the lion,and i think assassins get bronze daggers with the stygian daggers skin.....that one im not too sure about, but the staff and the shield i have definately seen and gotten.90.209.236.206 20:35, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * adding to list =P rangers get a sturdy bow, paragons get a suntouched spear and a heraldic shield,monks get a smiting staff,thats all i can find atm90.209.236.206
 * Ritualists so pwn in here, they've got good self survival, damage, and support spells for the party. But I really didn't want a smiting monk, you know, they're not really made for that, if only they added PvE Smiter's Boon or Divine Boon... -[[Image:Flameseeker_sig.JPG]] talkpage 20:45, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * i agree, but i see the reasoning behind not adding a healing/prot monk as this would greatly hinder the enemy team if they didnt have a monk =P90.209.236.206 20:49, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Gamer Points
I believe the Gamer Points rewards have been changed, compared to last year. Not sure, but I think it starts with 10 for the first win, and increases with 1 for every consecutive win. Could anyone confirm and edit this in the article?

(EC)I'm definitely getting more than seven per fight, and not the same number per fight. I went from 1989 -> 2000 -> 2012.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 21:59, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * And after two more wins, I'm at 2039, which would be 2012 -> 2025 -> 2039, so I think it is 10 + 1 for each previous win.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 22:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

PvP skills?
Signet of Judgment functions as a PvE skill in PvP during the Costume Brawl (No half range). Is this the same with other skill like SoJ?Thomahawk 10:56, 25 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Weapon of Warding on the ritualists bar is in PvE mode (5 second recharge.) But Ancestors Rage is PvP style. I don't know if they were making all the skills PvE and it's just an oversight or something else.72.20.237.153 11:24, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I noticed Paragons use "Never surrender! (PvP)". I suppose it's random Thomahawk 13:26, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Dervs use the PvP version of Chilling Victory. 70.126.107.48 20:03, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Thing to note
You can't take on the other team by yourself--Relyk 11:46, 25 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Not unless you're an Assassin, and the other group contains at least four people in it. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jïörüjï Ðērākō.> .cнаt^  14:44, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Crit Rates
I wonder if crit rates are still being affected by difference in level for sub-level 20's :P If so, talk about yummy food for sins/rangers

Balth Faction
I am getting Balth faction while playing,a s well. 100 points, isn't it? 74.138.224.157 21:14, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Same as with all PvP, you should get balth faction per kills. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 21:20, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * From my observation, it's 20 faction per point (be it by morale or kill) plus an additional 5 faction/point scored for the winning team at the end of the game. - [[Image:AdVictoriam1.PNG|19px]] Ad Victoriam  23:57, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Same as Hero Battles, then. Which makes sense, since it's the same style of battle.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 01:16, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Improved Bars
I like the improvements they've made to this years skill bars, especially in terms of the mesmer bar..Dropping complicate, and E-surge for LA and wastrel's worry, along with overload, power spike and empathy combine for a pretty good bar..only skill I miss from last year's bar over this one is shatter enchantment.Mesmerizer101 00:31, 27 October 2008 (UTC)Mesmerizer101
