For All Pages:
All non-talk pages should have included somewhere, preferably at the bottom of the page.

Skill Balance Suggestion Formatting
Formatting for content on the Skill Balance Suggestion pages is to follow the following format: =Attribute=

Current:

 * __ __% __ __ __      

_______'s Proposal

 * __ __% __ __ __      
 * 

_______'s Proposal

 * __ __% __ __ __      
 *  ~

For example,

=Tactics=

Current:

 * 5 30 Skill. ( seconds.) Adjacent allies have 75% chance to block. Ends if you move.

Raine's Proposal:

 * 5 10 Skill.  ( seconds.) Target ally and all adjacent allies have 75% chance to block attacks.  Ends for each ally if that ally is not near you.  Block effect: you take  damage.  Cannot self-target. 
 * This skill previously had the debilitating drawbacks of ending on movement and a having a terribly long recharge. The new function allows movement, so long as the user maintains a "nearby" proximity to those he or she is attempting to protect, and has a maintainable uptime.  The damage clause has been added both for flavor (it goes with the theme of self-sacrifice in the act of protecting others) and for balance reasons.

generates my suggestion for Protector's Defense, as seen on that page. All skill balance suggestions should be listed under the corresponding attribute (or "/Unlinked") in alphabetical order. Any suggestions not adhering to these standards will be reworked or deleted.
