Talk:Well of Silence

Wait wait wait is it just me or does that say target corpse. So I can send out a weak flesh golem to die were I want and raise this without worring about other corpses laying around. Sounds good to me i'll definatly be giving this one a try.NovaTalon 15:55, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Is "target corpse" a mistake or can you, in fact, specify the corpse you want to cast this well on? I suspect that its a mistake if only because it would not work in PvE since enemy corpse selection is usually impossible. Seva 14:52, 26 September 2006 (CDT)
 * A similar "target creature" mistake was made in the description for Feast for the Dead, so if we have confirmation, we should add a similar note. Seva 15:17, 26 September 2006 (CDT)

After doing some testing myself, I found that Well of Silence actually targets the nearest available corpse. I supect that this means Well of Weariness and Well of Darkness also target the nearest available corpse too. The skill descriptions on GuildWiki may therefore need to have that |sic| addition next to them. Dante Fox 08:00, 9 June 2007 (CDT)
 * No. That's not what sic means.  Sic is used in the context of grammar and spelling.  It's not used to denote a functional error or inconsistency.-Ninjatek 08:28, 9 June 2007 (CDT)
 * No, it basically means "that's how it is in the text (so don't change it)." The reason for it can be anything.  The Latin means "thus."  --Fyren 18:09, 9 June 2007 (CDT)

If the skill descriptions are left alone, might it be useful to add a note at the bottom of each of the articles mentioned to avoid further confusion on how this spell works? Dante Fox 09:42, 22 June 2007 (CDT)
 * If you can add it if you want, but all corpse spells work that way, so others may end up removing it. --Fyren 10:33, 22 June 2007 (CDT)

Replacement for well of suffering
I guess this will replace well of suffering, since it is 2 less degen but with more devastating effects given there will be more shout users in Nightfall.-- &middot;&middot;&middot;&raquo; Life Infusion &middot;&middot;&middot; 23:05, 25 October 2006 (CDT)


 * and yet, despite playing both paragons and warriors, the first time I have found this skill annoying was on my ranger. Beast Master builds need those shouts... not all paragons or warriors use shouts or chants (all the time), but a beast master needs his (or hers). &mdash; ~ Soqed Hozi ~  16:45, 24 May 2007 (CDT)


 * The ratio of shout-using warriors and paragons to other warriors and paragons is much higher than beast masters to other rangers. M s4 20:21, 9 June 2007 (CDT)


 * You forget, well of suffering is death magic, whereas well of silence is a curse. generally you'd pick whatever well you're already investing attribute points into. --Ckal Ktak 16:07, 28 June 2007 (CDT)
