 * done. -- VVong | BA 18:29, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Unkillable
Did 8 minions with death nova on and resigned, no death. They didnt even attempt to attack it yet it still gazed the minions. Did i expect it to be killable? nah. But it can be affected by indirect skills like life will heal it.--Justice 09:20, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Singular vs plural
Regarding the revert war around this, it really isn't significantly different to the previous version. Both explain the same thing, with little or no ambiguity. -- pling 21:23, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * the eye only follows ONE character at a time. it should be singular. "it can only follow a character that has been..." it does not imply ONE player as ariyen suggests. player is not equal to character. --194.44.18.83 21:27, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * (Edit conflict) Can only follow one character at a time, but not one character only. The eye can follow different characters--thus plural. – User Balistic Pve B d-dark.jpgalistic 21:29, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * It doesn't really matter really. Both are correct. – User Balistic Pve B d-dark.jpgalistic 21:29, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Might this resolve your issues? -- pling User Pling sig.png 21:32, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * different does not mean plural. different is implied by the "a", indefinite article. --194.44.18.83 21:35, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * a different characters? – User Balistic Pve B d-dark.jpgalistic 21:37, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Isn't the Eye's distance equally distributed to all cleansed characters in range? poke | talk 21:42, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * only if they're close to each other. 194.44.18.83 21:44, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually I thought it sticks to one player always, but it has been a while since I played this mission, admittedly. --Kyoshi (Talk) [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] 21:47, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I seem to remember the eye moving around, not one player always. – User Balistic Pve B d-dark.jpgalistic 21:51, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * "It is a floating pyramid-shaped object with an eye in it that follows a character around that's been cleansed in the Fountain of Truth. It selects the Chosen from various NPCs it passes and occasionally uses Janthir's Gaze, causing an AoE knockdown if any enemies are nearby."

And actually, looking at the current version again, it does need shortening, even ignoring runons. Half that information is stated on the rest of the page. Guess your version is fine, just remember to add links. --Kyoshi (Talk) 22:08, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * how about this? it've put on the cleanse req. onto the main sentence, and chop up the "getting real long" sentence to boot. 194.44.18.83 21:51, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * A bit awkwardly phrased. I think it's fine as is, pluralization aside. Nobody's complained about the length, and I don't think shortening it would necessarily make it any better. --Kyoshi (Talk) [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] 21:55, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * what part? i only tacked on that's been cleansed in the Fountain of Truth at the end. run on sentences are bad. 194.44.18.83 21:59, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Dangling modifiers are bad too. "...follows a character around that's been cleansed..."
 * ok, if there's no other objections ill just go ahead and change it. 194.44.18.83 22:58, 30 December 2009 (UTC)


 * done. i also removed the part about the chosen, since like you said is already mentioned in the notes. 194.44.18.83 23:02, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Note part should be removed, not the description part. Already taken care of. As per other pages that I've seen this happen on. -- [[File:User Ariyen sig icon.gif]] riyen ♥ 23:13, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks just fine to me now. --Kyoshi (Talk) [[File:User Kyoshi sig.png]] 01:58, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Possibly belongs to the "gods?"
Ariyen removed that note and put the simplified statement without the reference to the gods into the description. I disagree with the changes, as it now completely fails to mention the possibility of belonging to the "unseen ones." I found that note interesting, as I never though about it that way before, but it makes sense as an observation. So I would like it put back. Rose Of Kali 23:40, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

 * It's also possible that it was created by someone else and discovered or stolen by the White Mantle or the Unseen Ones. It would be useful for anyone who needs a way to detect the Chosen. Furthermore, the artifact itself is stated to possess limited True Sight, which could have other uses. -- [[Image:User Gordon Ecker sig.png]] Gordon Ecker (talk) 03:52, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Note
"Monsters may also be "tested", however they are all unworthy and will not react." Who told you this? ~ MarcoDzi 16:29, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, they get knocked down by the Eye, same as the local guards and other non-Chosen. But that note is more confusing than useful. [[Image:User Rose Of Kali SIG.jpg]]Rose Of Kali 21:22, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

the eye is obviously blind
How is it this thing fails to recognize the real chosen, namely the player characters that are taking it around. Ramei Arashi 06:07, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Who says? When was the last time it knocked you down? Your character is just too stupid to put two and two together and go "owait, I must be chosen too! :O" [[Image:User Rose Of Kali SIG.jpg]]Rose Of Kali 12:56, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Freemasonry reference?
Possible freemason reference? Someone brought up the Eye of Providence, and I wouldn't doubt that one of the members of the Prophecies team was a Mason. Taka Ragranok 02:30, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Belonging to a group and jumping to the conclusion that there must be a reference to said group is kind of... paranoid, no? 02:41, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
