name[edit]

Shouldn't we add this to Category:Official terms? As scroll effects and, as mentioned, the effect from Party Time! uses this in their skill descriptions. (Well, otherwise it would also be written with a minorcase B anyways) —ZerphatalkThe Improver 17:53, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

These skills have no other traits and effects from them cannot be removed.[edit]

maybe somebody should reword this. If I was sure what the original author meant, maybe I'd do it myself - but I don't.

Mixing the terms[edit]

I see (at least, suspect) a problems in current usage of the term Party Bonus. Most skills in the table are the party-wide experience bonuses which are applied to whole party when it fights against the foes. In this case, party means the group of commonly acting characters. However, Party Mode and Party Time! are not the same types of skill in mechanics, there provide a bonus for Party Animal title or visial effect for its user rather than a group-wide experience. So, the word party means here a festivity, not a group. Whether it's an intentional play of words in the skill description or not, I don't know, but placing them in a single table because of common expression Party Bonus in the skill definition is not good. Maybe the table should be split, or some explanation added, or another article about party skills in festivity meaning created. --Slavic 10:01, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
