Trait skills[edit]

I created this page mainly to have a default value for a SMW property type page (to get all the redirect stuff), but also to list remarkable skills that don't have a type, namely the two healing skills (also Mending used to be one until it got a type in 2018). For healing, utility and elite skills the type (or the inherited type from the parent for chain skills) is pretty much the defining categorization, like the weapon is it for weapon skills or the (elite) specialization for profession skills. Thus in my opinion it's remarkable for healing, utility and elite skills to be not related to a type, while for weapon skills and profession skills it's quite usual (as it's not the main categorization tool).

So my question: Is it remarkable for trait skills that they don't have a skill type? --Tolkyria (talk) 22:55, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

While I agree that generally trait skills don't have a skill type, I don't see why this page should be restricted to remarkable skills only. I think the trait skills should be included for completeness and they may be useful to someone in the future. --BuffsEverywhere (talk) 06:16, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
