Wiki Editing for class Skills Basics

Each page for class skills includes an overall page with "sections" for each skill. Sections are divided by creating headers using equals signs:

== Section Name ==

Gives us:

Section Name

Beneath that, we'll have 4 effective sections in a skill:

• The skill description, which includes the icon/picture, description, lvl required, and any prerequisites
• The "odd one", tables for synergies and static values (like "does 100% weapon damage" or "mana cost of 10")
• The skil damage table
• Patch notes tables

Using Jab as an example we see:

Jab

Let's parse through this code one section at a time. For the description section, this will be pretty standard/constant in layout, thought the values will change.

Description layout code:

<!-- If skill doesnt exist in original Diablo 2 remove comment marks below -->

<!-- <span style="color:green">'''New skill'''</span> -->

{|

|-

{| <!-- Description table -->

|rowspan="3" style="vertical-align:top; padding:0.5em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em; width:5%"
