Disambiguation : Skill/Spell

I'm in the process of changing all the active skills to spell to avoid the confusion with passive skill, but should we use abilities to refer to passive skill instead, or never use the word skill? Ibete (talk) 10:44, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

During character creation if you go to the "Abilities" panel, open the "Skills" section and mouse hover every line, you'll see that the game considers Aero, Geo, Hydro, Pyro and Witch items as "spells" (all of them), while Marksman, M@A and Scoundrel are referred as "skills". If we want to be perfectly consistent with the game, this is probably the way to go. I don't like that though. I'd prefer a category that contains all skills, whatever their ability.
Would you please explain me what you call "passive skill"? Are we talking about stances or status effects like fortified? Chriskang (talk) 12:13, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
