Do we currently have a place, or places, amongst the (class) articles where Mastery for each Specialization is described? If not, anyone have suggestions where/how to do this consistently? --[[User:Eirik Ratcatcher|Eirik Ratcatcher]] ([[User talk:Eirik Ratcatcher|talk]]) 22:50, 11 January 2011 (UTC) |

Bleah, okay, so [[Strikes of Opportunity]], arms warrior mastery. Only linked to by mastery and specialization. Not the Warrior page. |

Do we currently have a place, or places, amongst the (class) articles where Mastery for each Specialization is described? If not, anyone have suggestions where/how to do this consistently? --Eirik Ratcatcher (talk) 22:50, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Mastery? --Pcj (T•C) 23:06, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- I am underwhelmed by how easy it is to look up what a particular specialization's mastery ability is. But perhaps this is part of a larger "specialization details are not reported distinctly" issue. For example, what are the signature abilities of the Shaman restoration talent tree choice? While it might actually BE in the description I linked here, it's not declared as such. And that is where I looked first, so maybe it should be? --Eirik Ratcatcher (talk) 21:17, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
- Those abilities aren't part of the Mastery stat, so they really don't belong on that page. They can be found at Primary spells, but maybe a larger overview page for talent specs would be useful to combine the information. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 20:28, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Indeed, Mastery is not part of the (class) articles (re my initial question). Nor is Primary Spells. Worse, Without you two mentioning those pages, I have no clue they exist. When I want to know details about (eg) the Shaman class specializations, the first place I go is the Shaman page. Where I do find talent tree descriptions, but I do not find summaries such as is found on the talent dialog box. If I read the text (eg of Elemental), I eventually find the bit on Thunderstorm, Elemental Fury, and Shamanism. Elemental Overload ... hmm... doesn't exist yet.
Bleah, okay, so 
[Strikes of Opportunity], arms warrior mastery. Only linked to by mastery and specialization. Not the Warrior page.
