Welcome & Move Notice

Hi there! I moved your image to your user space since we don't keep user screenshots in the main space of the wiki. Also belated welcome to the wiki! Happy wiki-ing! o/ talk 17:30, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi there! I guess that's a beginner's mistake ;) MrLeopold (talk) 17:36, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

All good! Just wanted to let you know in case you went looking for the file! :) talk 17:40, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Itzel Masteries

Hi there, this is a bit of a long shot, but I noticed that you mentioned not having unlocked the Itzel Language mastery yet over on this comment on On Wiki of Gold, which means you don't have the Itzel Poison Lore mastery either. If it's possible, would you be willing to research what happens when you run into Poison Hazes or Mordrem Vines in the Heart of Maguuma, specifically to see if it grants an effect? Environmental hazard#Poison haze is currently missing this information because so few people have this mastery unlocked, and it'd be really helpful if you were willing to check it out for us. No worries if you can't, though. :) —Idris 11:40, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Well well, I'll try (if I find it :p ). I don't really come in the Heart of Maguuma very often, so this may take a while. MrLeopold (talk) 12:19, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! Take all the time you need. I notice that you haven't contributed to set 500 on On Wiki of Gold yet, and this research would count towards it, if that sweetens the deal. ;) —Idris 12:23, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Hmm I've been walking around in the Heart of Maguuma for a while now, and I still haven't found it. When I look up the page Mordrem Vine, it seems to be in a raid? And raids... well yeah... aren't really my thing. Is there another place where I can find them? MrLeopold (talk) 14:27, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

The mentioned mordrem vines can be found for example around the Ancient Tree. Sime (talk) 15:58, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

The raid object is misleadingly named; it has nothing to do with this mastery. Check out the Envrionmental hazards page I linked above: it has a list of all the locations of poison haze and mordrem vines in the game. :) —Idris 15:59, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Oh woow, how did I miss that? I knew I went on that page though, but appearently I did not see the locations (whoops). Well, I'll visit one of them now, and we'll see what effect you'll get. :) MrLeopold (talk) 07:53, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Okay I managed to find it. The Environmental hazard#Poison haze is updated and I've created the Poison Vines page although it still misses an id and icon. MrLeopold (talk) 08:39, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Okay, getting the icon was very hard, I really had to be very fast, but I got it! :) MrLeopold (talk) 09:09, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Nice job! Thank you so much for this! Did you only check vines, or did you check the hazes as well? The name of the effect makes me suspect that ANet made two separate effects for the two types of poison hazards, just to be difficult. By the way, an nice trick to get effect/skill ids is to shift-click on the effect to make it appear in your chat box, then add "/wiki " (note the space) in front of it and hit enter. This will open the wiki and display the id for you. :) —Idris 10:08, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Just a heads up, I'm also tagging your icon upload for deletion. Thank you for the effort you put in to capturing it, but unfortunately it wasn't necessary -- we already have this icon uploaded to the wiki! File:Noxious Gas.png. In future you can save yourself some effort by browsing Category:Effect icons or User:Darqam/Dat Icons for high-quality icons that have already been uploaded; 99 times out of a hundred, you'll find it on one of those two pages somewhere! Also note that we prefer icons to be uploaded as .png instead of .jpg, as it results in a higher image quality. —Idris 10:30, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

I was looking for a page like that. This will be helpful in the future! Thank you! MrLeopold (talk) 13:14, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

I also added the Poison Haze effect. Phew, glad that's over :) MrLeopold (talk) 13:53, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Great work. Thank you so much! —Idris 14:12, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
