Skill icons[edit]

What do you think about using the skill icon template on these skills and then align the skills to the left of the tables? —ZerphatalkThe Improver 21:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

I recently added icons to the Disguise page. Dunno how it would look on this though, especially considering the varied length in skill names. Here's a test:



Prophecies Factions
Desperation Blow Desperation Blow Drunken Blow Drunken Blow
Galrath Slash Galrath Slash Silverwing Slash Silverwing Slash
Griffon's Sweep Griffon's Sweep Leviathan's Sweep Leviathan's Sweep
Penetrating Blow Penetrating Blow Penetrating Chop Penetrating Chop
Pure Strike Pure Strike Jaizhenju Strike Jaizhenju Strike
I'd say it's pretty good (skills aligned to the left, with centering it's HORRIBLE!). So, think we should add the icons? User eldin sig.jpg Eldin 01:50, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
We should at best simply use the skill icon template, without centering them of course^^ —ZerphatalkThe Improver 20:30, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

"Near-Duplicates"[edit]

"A player cannot have both versions on their skillbar at the same time (excepting skill-stealing abilities such as Arcane Larceny)." What is the point of having this? These are pve only skills, so I would be very surprised to steal find a monster using one of these. The Nenth 04:35, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree. There is no way to duplicate them, unless someone can give me a skill the steals from your allies. 68.78.65.84 22:45, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

PvP-only / PvE-only[edit]

See Block.

How does that relate to duplicate skills? those are skills that are similar, but changed for PvP. They aren't duplicates. --JonTheMon 02:00, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
Are you saying you'd like to see an article identifying split skills? I think that could be done now via DPL. But, please don't create that article unless a couple of other people agree that it would be useful (also: please use your sandbox until any putative article is ready for prime time and supported by others).
In the meantime, I'm removing the {{split}} tag: the {{duplicate skill icon}} doesn't add categories, so there's nothing to split here. – Tennessee Ernie Ford (TEF) 02:40, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
List of PvE versions of skills, List of PvP versions of skills, and List of PvE and PvP versions of skills already exists. --Silver Edge 09:07, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
