ANet calls them abilities 5 times in the ranger page. That's enough for me to call it "official name". Why would we change that? Chriskang 10:04, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- It calls them skills multiple times in the Q&A about rangers. It also sounds better and more accurately describes the mechanic, imo. -~=Ϛρѧякγ

- I agree with Sparky here. There are conflicting messages about what they're "officially" called, but calling them "skills" sound more appropriate and accurate to the game mechanics than "abilities". IMO, "abilities" implies more in the way of characteristics rather than actions. "Skills" to me implies actions that the pet can carry out, especially because this is the wording ANet used in both GW1 and GW2 with players. Therefore, is it alright if I move it to Pet Skills? - ThatOneGuy
