Burning may stack intensity![edit]

As the guardian "spec" Radiance suggests. :o – Valento msg 12:37, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Removing parameters from infoboxes[edit]

What about historical stuff? Is it safe to just discard certain legacy information from infoboxes? – Valento msg 13:05, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

We don't keep historical traits. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 13:38, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
Ah, I see. Now that I think about it, it's going to be a hell of changes anyways. o.o – Valento msg 14:08, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
List of historical traits. But since the changes appear to be so large, I think it will probably be better to just manually enter the historical stuff. Mora 15:37, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
That's cool. The +5% damage while moving for elementalists is awesome hahah. We could add the wiped out traits to this list, and add trivia sections for merged/reworked ones. – Valento msg 17:32, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
Exactly, Mora - the changes here are much more complex than anything they've done before, even when they did their profession overhauls. Perhaps the best thing to do this time would be to make a subpage at List of historical traits/Specialization conversion where we make static copies of all the current trait tables (from i.e. List of guardian traits etc.) and append a column to describe what happened to that trait (made baseline, merged into trait X, promoted/demoted, renamed, culled, or no change). I made a table like that for Water Magic based on the blog post, I suppose I could expand that for everything else based on the Twitch AMA. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 21:37, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

Additional passes for traits stuff[edit]

Relyk and I have been discussing here about categorizations, I went and created those since they look very fitting. One thing that should also be changed are the navigations templates such as trait lists nav (rename to specializations nav). Just a heads-up in case you can improve any changes I (or someone else) may make in the meantime! – Valento msg 12:25, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
