Functionality

From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Functionality in Guild Wars refers to the effects unleashed by a skill, the prerequisites for those effects to be triggered, and the order in which those effects take place. In contrast, resource costs are not considered part of functionality.

This wiki labels a skill as having changed in functionality if any of the following is altered as a result of a game update: the order in which the effects triggered by the skill take place; damage types; changes in conditions dealt or effects triggered; target (types, amount, or area of effect); and frequency (e.g. whether effects are triggered once or several times).

This list only includes skills that have had major functional changes, to improve readability and reduce article length. To see a list of all skills with changes, please see this category.

Notes[edit]

  • ArenaNet sometimes decides to change skill functionality if their effects are considered too weak or strong, even with a change in numbers. This can include skills that are usually only used in specialized farming builds in PvE, or skills that are usually only used in a single PvP format.
