Category talk:Remains

All the other collector item subcategories make perfect sense. Normally all the collector items from one species share a common name and often a common or similar icon. A very nice and easy way to identify species!

But the "remains" are different. ANet made a complete mess here:


 * Azure Remains and Shadowy Remnants share the same icon, despite their different name. On the other hand there are different icons used among the different types of "Remains".
 * Some Ghosts drop "Remains", other ghosts drop "Residues".
 * Some Nightmares drop "Remains", others drop "Remnants".
 * "Remnants" are dropped by Nightmares, but also by the Eidolon, although these two are clearly different species.
 * The Eidolon is obviously a Phantom, but it drops "remnants" whereas other phantoms drop "residues"
 * ... more discrepancies to be added ...

I'm lost here. It's damn hard to find out the species structure for undead / ghost / demon / phantom / ... creatures, and obviously their collector item drops don't help a bit to solve the puzzle. :( --Tetris L 07:05, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
