This policy suggestion has failed. It is retained primarily for archival purposes, although if need be it can be resubmitted for reevaluation. Reason - being considered unneeded - was added to PvX:FORMAT for a time and then removed |
When writing builds, especially for PvE, authors have a tendency to assign the build a hard resurrection skill from a secondary profession. This can create some problems. Users new to Guild Wars may not realize that it is possible to change the secondary profession of a PvE character and thus may disregard builds tagged with a different secondary profession. Even if they are aware that they can change secondary professions, they may not have that specific secondary profession unlocked yet for their character and will still ignore perfectly viable builds.
Proposal[]
Builds that have nothing except for a resurrection skill from their secondary class should have "any" listed as their secondary profession and have a resurrection signet in the rez slot, with two exceptions:
- The particular resurrection skill used in the build is critical for the build to perform well, in which case it would be acceptable for the build to base its secondary profession solely off the resurrection skill.
- The build needs a hard resurrect to work properly, but it doesn't really matter which one. In this case, make it /any, but leave the resurrection slot as an optional and post a note saying that it must be a hard resurrect under the skill bar. It would also be appropriate to post recommended resurrection skills here.
