Talk:Skale

According to the Nightfall Ingame cinematic we will see skales yet again in some form in Chapter Three. Check out the video and fastforward to about 2:13-2:14 for a closeup of a skale.--The King Tarosian 15:14, 9 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Interesting. Still, Skales are found all throughout Tyria, so I wouldn't be too surprised if they could be found in other chapters. [[image:ordinsig.gif]] Ordin 17:01, 9 September 2006 (CDT)

Skale inspired by Shark?
I believe that Skale were inspired by sharks. Skale are fish-like. They may have legs and other features a shark doesn't have, but they wouldn't be the same. Just inspired by them. The names are similar: Skale Shark

Skales drop fins. Sharks can be farmed for their fins to make soup. These skale fins can be used to create skale fin soup. A coincidence? I think not. Of course they aren't the same creature but it is quite possible that skales were inspired by sharks. I know that you can see shark-like things in the water such as at Zaishen Elite, LA and the Nightfall login screen and there is the shark tooth shield, but that doesn't mean that skales can't be inspire by sharks. Maybe an evolution of them who can live on land as well as in water.

And the nightfall skales (skale lasher etc) are more like reptiles of course and are less like sharks. This stil doesn't mea that the otherskale are not inspired by sharks.

Not sure if it's relevant...
The Skale south of Doomlore Shrine seem to drop Lockpicks at an extremely high rate. Can anyone else test to see if this is true, or just lucky runs for me? -- Scar ~ 20:22, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
