EOTN Title Specific Skills
The 50 EOTN PvE Title Track based skills don't work when trying to create a build. Currently, I have left them as optional and inserted a comment underneath which says about the skills. ---Andyhhp

Pious Assault
This skill needs to be updated. Greevar 12:29, 21 January 2008 (EST)
 * A lot of skills need updating due to the recent update. But its a temporary testing update, so I assume the admins are waiting to update them before a-net says its final. --- [[Image:Monk-icon-Ressmonkey.JPG|15px]]  Ressmonkey (talk)  12:48, 21 January 2008 (EST)

Extend Conditions
[Extend Conditions]

It's missing its end parenthese. -- Guild of  Deals  15:41, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * Yeah, and half the skills have incorrect descriptions because of updates. I don't know if anyone is actually updating that anymore. Lord Belar 17:34, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * Well updates are brand new, and there's tons of them this time. Gc is gonna have assloads of fun. --[[image:GoD Sig3.jpg|20px]] Guild of  Deals  17:36, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * Gcard doesn't do those updates. That's why they're 3-4 updates behind. Lord Belar 17:41, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * who does then? Antiarchangel 21:06, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * Pretty sure it's gwshack &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( sysop ) 21:08, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * And they happen to suck at it. :/ Lord Belar 21:37, 6 March 2008 (EST)
 * So anyway we could do it ourselves? Or is it too much code or something? Antiarchangel 17:39, 7 March 2008 (EST)
 * We just can't. [[Image:User Frvwfr2 signature.jpg|User:Frvwfr2]] frvwfr2  (T/C/Sysop) 17:41, 7 March 2008 (EST)
 * Isn't the issue that Extend Conditions is missing a paranthese? --[[image:GoD Sig3.jpg|20px]] Guild of  Deals  17:48, 7 March 2008 (EST)
 * And that half the other skills descriptions are outdated. Antiarchangel 18:06, 7 March 2008 (EST)
 * I believe somewhere that there was mention of developing our own skill database so the community could keep the skill descriptions up to date(though it'd probably be only admins who could edit for various reasons)....

Hex Breaker
Archive:Team - HB Blackout Spike, in the optional list it says it lasts 65s@10. However, it is actually 55 in game. 10:26, 19 June 2008 (EDT)
 * A lot of skills haven't been updated on PvX since the split between PvP and PvE skills, I'm not sure what PvX is going to do to show the difference between the skills in PvP and PvE. Byakko 02:59, 21 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Hex breaker isn't a split pve/pvp skill, nor has its duration been changed recently.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( sysop ) 03:34, 21 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Well this Wiki uses historic Skill Data (Back from March 2008) which was way before the Splitting and therefore a skill doesnt need to have been changed recently in order to be displayed wrong here. And thats not the only issue here 87.183.41.200 07:58, 29 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Ah, you're right (/doh) I also saw the note about asking about updates above so I guess is best to manually crosscheck wiki's to be sure sorry WB ^^ Byakko 19:20, 22 June 2008 (EDT)

Chilling Victory
Just to bring to attention, the Chilling Victory now has 2 different attribute lines based on PvE and PvP. So it might be something you guys should be able to handle or not. <font face="Staccato222 BT" color="black">Huynh Sanity 00:05, 11 July 2008 (EDT)
 * We haven't gotten any split PvE/PvP skills working yet :( We'll figure it out (eventually)  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( sysop ) 00:52, 11 July 2008 (EDT)
 * I'm wondering if it's time to start to put some restrictions on builds being tagged for both PvE and PvP. Maybe adding a type=pve or type=pvp option to PvX code would be the solution? --CJNyfalt 01:34, 11 July 2008 (EDT)
 * I think the cleanest solution lies in the creation of a skill database on PvX. Last I checked, it was ~80% done; we're waiting on a new test server.  [[Image:Defiant Elements Sig Test 2.JPG|50x19px]]  *Defiant Elements*   +talk  01:36, 11 July 2008 (EDT)
 * For the time being, can't we just use a [Chilling Victory@<insert rank in wind prayers>] for CV? Ace   (LVPoW) 00:39, 12 July 2008 (EDT)
 * Yes, you can, but that only works in this case. Most other split skills didn't just have their attribute changed :(  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( sysop ) 00:39, 13 July 2008 (EDT)
 * Aww beat me to itPuneY 00:37, 18 July 2008 (EDT)
 * PvP/PvE changes are fixed now? for proof. Look at Watch yourself and look at PvP version of it.  <font color="41 69 E1">Ace <font color ="#0099FF">(LVPoW)  19:52, 8 August 2008 (EDT)

Skills With "(PvP)"
Not sure if this is the right place...but for the standard build template, if I try to write a skill with a PvP variant (for instance, if I were to write [Aegis (PvP]) the skill doesn't appear. I was wondering if you could change that so that build readers understand the function of the skills in their location.  Because a PvP version of a skill cannot be written directly into the build, Aegis in an HA build would still appear to cost 10 energy.

Example: [build prof=monk/any healin=12+1+1 protec=10+1 divin=8+1][patient spirit][word of healing][dismiss condition][Aegis (PvP)][optional][optional][optional][holy veil][/build] Moonlight 14:59, 29 July 2008 (EDT)
 * This is being discussed on Gcardinal's talk page. PvP variations aren't yet supported by PvX's server. I'm not sure about the specifics, but if I remember correctly, none of the skills have been updated since March 6th, or something close to that. Anyone's welcome to correct me if I'm wrong about that.

Typo
Not that important, but:

It's Assassin, not Assasin. Drag nmn   talk cont  11:26, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

FC on signets
This barely even matters at all (if at all) but:

[build prof=Me FastCasting=100][Healing Signet][Antidote Signet][Signet of Lost Souls][Signet of Humility][Signet of Return][RoJ][/build]

you can see here when fast casting is high on signets the cast time goes onto negative numbers whereas with spells the number stays at 0.0. It really doesn't make a difference to anything but you know :P Mr  Metal  FLower  -...<font size=0.5> tlk  15:42, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * it also scales kinda awkwardly, like you can see here the longest casting signets have the lowest number (i.e. furthest into negative number) casting times... Mr  Metal  FLower  -...<font size=0.5> tlk  15:44, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Fast casting scales linearly for signets and follows an exponential model for spells. The behaviour is correct. [[Image:Misery_Cow.png|19x19px]] <font color="#00dd00">Misery <font color="#00ee00">Says <font color="#00ff00">Moo   15:48, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It's just the whole idea that it's not possible to do something 10 seconds before you've cast it :P OK so it's not possible to get a high enough level for it either but it's just not mathematically sound :P Mr  Metal  FLower  -...<font size=0.5> tlk  15:51, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * If signets scale linearly and spells scale exponentially it is mathematically sound. With linear scaling you can get under 0, with exponential you cannot. It is expected behavior. Drag  nmn   talk cont  14:29, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Don't put in gigantic numbers - problem solved. Though, I would be interested in what would happen if you managed to get 34+ FC. It would either assume 0 and be instant cast, or crash the server, I'd imagine. ··· Danny   Does   Drugs  19:15, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Right now, the fastest skill activation possible for a signet is just about .11 (.107625) seconds (including cons). The fastest for a spell is .0133875 seconds. ··· Danny   Does   Drugs  19:29, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Excluding things like Asuran Scan and Dolyak Signet ofc <font face="Courier New">C:\PvX>Abort, Retry, Panic?[[Image:Panic_Sig_Cursor.gif]] 09:20, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, excluding instant cast things, obv. ··· Danny   Does   Drugs  14:21, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Defy Pain
[Defy Pain@10]

scaling is borked. there are probably others like it. who has access to the skill database now, anyways? last I knew gcard tried to host it at wikipedia, then it got removed. --Mafaraxas 05:38, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * wikia do.I believe TOR made it so the skills rip descriptions from either GWiki or GWWiki, so some skill descirptions are the PvE version, others are PvP version, and others are a mix. <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   09:24, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I meant that the green number ought to be changing depending on specified strength; instead it stays in general form (90...258...300) regardless. And is not green.  Which leads me to believe that it just has to do with how the numbers were put in; the system is probably recognizing the numbers as a static part of the skill description, rather than a variable part. --Mafaraxas 09:54, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

becasue people keep adding different skill issues, make a list and whats wrong with it here <font color="#4F94CD"> ~ PheNaxKian <font color="#9400D3">Sysop   14:15, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Spawning power Bugged amount
For the builds involving a ritualist with spawning power you seem to be at a fault, spawning power adds 4% duration to weapon spells per point. As an example at level 10 it will add 40% duration if you add this to a weapon spell that has 20 seconds base it will go to 28 not 24. I figure one of your coders has either set it to 2% or somthing.
 * Yes, it used to be 2%, but the rit buff update changed it to 4%. PvXcode hasn't updated yet, and this problem is noted here. <font face="Courier New" color="Black">Toraen <font face="Courier New" color="DarkGoldenrod">TheJanitor [[image:ToraenSig2.png]] 23:27, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Signet of Agony / Shield of Absorption pvxbig code
The following: [soa][Shield of Absorption] Displays: [soa][Shield of Absorption]

Is it possible to change SoA to show Shield of Absorption since Shield of Absorption is used much more than Signet of Agony? 23:27, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

PvP Icons
Many of the hover over sections for PvP version of skills (such as on this page: Build:Rt/any HA Spirit Channeling) have crosses where the icons should be, but the images exist on the wiki e.g. . Is it possible to correct this? -- <font face="Calibri" color="Black" size="2.5">Chieftain  <font face="Calibri" color=CC6633 size="2.5"> Alex  08:39, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * PvXbig does not use the images uploaded to the wiki. It uses a set of images uploaded to the server with the extension. I've already prepared all the skill icons that need to be uploaded. --  Toraen   talk  12:58, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Aura of Restoration (PvP)
When included in skill templates, creates an invalid template (not recognized by guild wars). In-game, the entire skillbar previewed by the template code will be blank. -Toraen (talk) 06:24, 13 April 2020 (UTC) [build prof=E/any][Aura of Restoration (PvP)][Fire Attunement][Flare][Glyph of Elemental Power][Optional][Optional][Optional][Optional][/build] [build prof=E/any][Aura of Restoration][Fire Attunement][Flare][Glyph of Elemental Power][Optional][Optional][Optional][Optional][/build]

Found a few more + added to the patch: Mind Wrack, Mind Freeze, Mind Shock, Mist Form, Ward Against Harm, Ride the Lightning, Enraged Smash, Obsidian Flame, Illusion of Haste, Illusion of Pain, Web of Disruption, Lightning Hammer, Elemental Flame, and Slippery Ground - Chieftain Alex (talk) 11:51, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Soul Reaping description
Uses an old description of this attribute - Soul Reaping no longer affects spirits. [build prof=N soulreaping=12+1+3 nosave][/build]
 * Oh right. Yeah the primary attribute descriptions were always there in pvxcode, just hidden before, and incomplete. Prior to 2007 November this description was correct :D
 * Editcopy updated to:

$desc .= ' Gain . $attr_list['Soul Reaping'].  Energy whenever a non-Spirit creature near you dies, up to 3 times every 15 seconds. ';
 * - Chieftain Alex (talk) 22:18, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Spawning Power description
Inaccurate spawning power description. Also affects most other summoned creatures, including asura summons, excluding ebon vanguard assassin. [build prof=Rt spawningpower=12 nosave][/build]


 * Editcopy updated to "Spirits and minions" to "Creatures".

$desc .= ' Creatures you create have . (4 * $attr_list['Spawning Power']). '% more Health, and weapon spells you cast last '. (4 * $attr_list['Spawning Power']). '%''' longer. ';
 * - Chieftain Alex (talk) 22:18, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Fast Casting description
Wrong fast casting formula. Signets cast as quickly as spells. [build prof=Me fastcasting=12+1+3 nosave][/build]
 * This formula is based on gww:Fast Casting per below:

$desc .= ' You activate Spells . (100 - floor(pow(0.955, $attr_list['Fast Casting'])*100)). '% and Signets '. (3 * $attr_list['Fast Casting']). '%''' faster. (No effect for non-Mesmer skills with a cast time less than 2 seconds.) '; $desc .= ' In PvE, the recharge time of your Mesmer Spells is reduced by . (3 * $attr_list['Fast Casting']). '%'''. ';
 * The values are afaik identical to the table. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 19:46, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * We've tested this in december and found identical casting times of spells and signets. For ease of comparison we used spells and signets with the same casting time (resurrection signet vs. minions, signet of return vs. resurrect) and checked the casting time via slowed down video to make sure we're not falling trap to our gut feeling. --Krschkr (talk) 22:12, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh nice. Might be a good idea to update GWW then. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 23:32, 2 April 2020 (UTC)


 * I take it your proposed revised code would therefore be:

$desc .= ' You activate Spells and Signets . (100 - floor(pow(0.955, $attr_list['Fast Casting'])*100)). '%''' faster. (No effect for non-Mesmer skills with a cast time less than 2 seconds.) '; $desc .= ' In PvE, the recharge time of your Mesmer Spells is reduced by . (3 * $attr_list['Fast Casting']). '%'''. ';
 * mathwise the first % uses the same numbers on EN as DE. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 22:18, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Anniversary Update
Evidently we've got 10 new elites now. skillname_db.php and skill_db.php will both need updating. There were some dodgy looking concise description vs full descriptions on GWW so I haven't yet proposed a patch for these. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 06:26, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Also we'll need both the img_skills (64x64px) and img_thumb (40x40px) folders updated with the new icons, preferably with gold borders in higher res than the garbage ones I've uploaded on GWW. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 06:30, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Looks like someone already started a merge request but it's missing quite a bit. I've submitted my own merge request to them to get all the skill data sorted but I don't have images. It occurs to me that we should probably link your Gitlabs for PvXRate and PvXCode on this page somewhere so we don't end up with a bunch of different forks and let people request access. -Toraen (talk) 06:45, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Well after the merge is accepted (which it has been), it's usually like a day or two before it hits the live wiki.
 * Bad sign though, the test pvxwiki is appearing blank. For comparison here is the test guildwiki. Probably indicates there's an error somewhere in the submission. - Chieftain Alex (talk) 21:40, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Yes, I can confirm this works to add percentage signs. If you're not bothered by the "%" sign being slightly clipped by the background div image, everything is fine.
 * If you want to avoid the clipping there are two solutions: (1) Adjust the div size, make skillbg.jpg bigger, change the box sizes and padding, and then upload a new thumbnail image for every single file because it's no longer 40px wide.
 * OR, (2) set  (line 146 in css/pvxcode.css) from 7px to 1px padding-left. Suggest we do this second option as its easier. - Chieftain Alex  (talk) 19:50, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
