Guild Wars Wiki:Requests for research/DPL List

Dynamic list of pages that are tagged with {{Research needed|<reason>}}, and shows the reason for being listed.

Research topic	Description
Expert Salvage Kit	Does the salvage bonus apply to chances of getting rare materials? e.g. if you have less chance to break something, will you salvage steel more often than iron?
Heal	needs to be tested with the skills listed in the "Which kinds of healing are affected by which modifiers?" section below
Weapon of Remedy	Lots more skills to test, if it's worth doing so. See talk page
Uhiwi's Shortbow	Despite being called a "Shortbow", it uses the Bramble Longbow skin. Check if this bow is really a shortbow.
Stygian Spear	Which types of Stygian lord drop this item? Mesmer does. Any others?
Corrosive Spider Leg	Maximum and Minimum values of salvage for Chitin currently unconfirmed
Huge Jawbone	What is the maximum/minimum number of bones to salvage?

Rinkhal Talon	Can this item raresalvage into a Monstrous Claw similar to Rot Wallow Tusks
Skale Claw	Does this item raresalvage into Monstrous Fangs? or claws even?
Water Djinn Essence	Do they really salvage into Sapphires? Need screenshot proof on talk page.
Lornar's Pass	Notes section:"unable to enter with henchmen". Needs clarification: are the henchmen and non-Ascended players kicked out of the party and left in Lornar's Pass when you enter UW or are you not allowed to enter if you have henchmen or non-Ascended players in your party?
Holding the Line	Do the surviving Cursebearers, Illusionists and Arcanists follow the party after the first location is completed? the Sages follow to heal minions but that might be due to healing nature of AI and not quest npc movement.
Stygian Defender	Does this item also drop from the Necromancer and Mesmer stygian lords?

Shivers of Dread	Is the concise description incorrect or can this skill interrupt actions?
Dajkah Inlet	what is the drop rate for armor pieces; what is the minimum score needed to trigger them

Inscribed Chakram (diamond)	Confirm what materials this focus salvages into. Main query is does it salvage into Chitin Fragments?
Order of damage modifiers	Shelter/Union interaction is commonly held to depend on order cast, other positions may be outdated as well. Shadow Form (and possibly other damage-reduction skills) not present in list.
Gunther's Gaze
Spirit Form (disguise)	Someone should make a screen capture. I suspect it's just a water djinn, and the illumination there makes it look like it has a different color.

Sagren	At what point during the War in Kryta does his dialogue change and he becomes a collector?
