Coding[edit]
Infobox-ability | |
Feat | |
PrerequisitePermanent conditions that must be met before an ability can be acquired. For instance, the Dodge feat lists Dexterity 13+. Temporary conditions are listed under Conditions.: |
Perform: |
---|---|
Prerequisite ofAnother ability that requires this one as a prerequisite. For example, the Dodge feat lists Mobility.: |
|
TrainableA trainable feat can be trained using a standard feat slot, one of: Heroic, Epic, Epic Destiny, Legendary.: |
|
RepeatableA repeatable feat is a trainable feat that can be taken more than once, possibly with conditions. For example, Toughness indicates Unlimited, stacking, while Spell Focus indicates Once for each school of magic.: |
|
Class FeatA class feat is granted to all members of a class (who meet the prerequisites, if any) at a specified level. For example, Tower Shield Proficiency indicates Fighter 1, Uncanny Dodge indicates Barbarian 4 and Rogue 4, and Fists of Light indicates Monk 3 (Harmonious Path). A class feat may also be trainable to members of other classes, like Tower Shield Proficiency.: |
|
Bonus FeatA bonus feat may optionally be taken using a class-specific bonus slot. For example, Spell Focus indicates Wizard, Deflect Arrows indicates Monk, and Improved Critical indicates Artificer, Fighter. Rogue optional abilities are considered a type of bonus feat.: |
|
Racial FeatA racial feat is granted to all members of a race. For example, Shuriken Expertise indicates Drow, and Small Size Bonus indicates Gnome, Deep Gnome, Halfling.: |
|
Dragonmark: | |
Enhancement TreeWhen the ability is primarily granted through an enhancement, the tree is indicated here, as in Sacred Defender, Drow.: |
Unknown enhancement tree |
Epic DestinyUnrecognized term: Epic Destiny: |
Unknown epic destiny tree |
APThe number of Action Points (AP) needed to acquire each rank of the enhancement, usually 1 or 2. /RanksThe number of ranks of an enhancement that can be acquired,usually 1 to 3.: |
/ |
Spell LevelSpell level indicates the relative power of a spell, determining when it can normally be acquired by the relevant class(es) of caster. Not to be confused with character level. For example, Fireball lists Sorcerer 3, Wizard 3.: |

|
Spell SchoolEvery spell (optional for SLAs) belongs to one of eight schools of magic, such as Evocation or Necromancy. Optional descriptors, e.g. Fire, Compulsion, are also listed here.: |
|
UsageEvery ability has one or more usage modes. A passive ability functions continuously without any conscious effort. An active ability requires conscious effort to invoke. A toggled ability, such as a Stance, requires conscious effort to activate, but then remains active until consciously untoggled (or character dies, etc.). Note that an ability which enhances an active or toggled ability, but does not, itself, need to be independently activated, is passive. An ability may have both a passive component and an active or toggled component. The field is hidden when easily predictable, such as for a spell (which is always active).: |
Unknown feat usage |
ConditionsTemporary conditions that must be met in order for the ability to function. For example, many monk abilities require the monk to be centered. Permanent requirements are listed under Prerequisites.: |
|
ChargesUnrecognized term: Charges: |
|
RechargeUnrecognized term: Recharge: |
|
ComponentsEvery spell requires one or more types of components, either Verbal, Somatic, or Material. These are specified using the templates{{V}} , {{S}} , and {{M}} , respectively.:
|
|

|
MetamagicThe effects of spells and SLAs can often be enhanced using metamagic, a type of toggled feat, for example,{{Maximize}} and {{Heighten}} .:
|
|
TargetEvery ability has one or more targets, defined as Self, Friend, or Foe. The field may also contain additional information, such as Undead Foe or Breakables. The field is sometimes hidden, e.g., for a passive feat whose target is Self, such as Toughness.: |
Unknown feat target |
RangeThe distance at which an active ability can be activated, such as Melee for Cleave, or Double for Nimbus of Light. Typical values are Personal, Melee, Ranged, Touch, Standard (spell), or Double (ray), although any value can be specified. Not to be confused with area. /AreaThe coverage of a spell or effect, such as Single target, Standard AoE, or Conal AoE. Not to be confused with range. For example, both Finger of Death and Fireball have Standard range, but Finger of Death has a Single target area, while Fireball has a Large Spherical AOE. Note that, in contrast to PnP, DDO in-game descriptions often conflate range and area.: |
|
Saving ThrowThe type of saving throw, if any, that can be used to avert a spell or effect. Common values include Will, Fortitude, Reflex for half, or None.: |
|
DCThe Difficulty Class of the indicated saving throw. This field is omitted if the DC is predictable, such as for standard spells.: |

|
BuffA broad characterization of the type(s) of beneficial effects an ability imparts, not otherwise mentioned. The inventory of recognized effects is expected to undergo considerable refinement.: |
|
RestorationAll forms of resurrection and various lesser forms of restoration, such as removing ability damage and fatigue. Restoration of lost hit points is listed under Healing.: |
|
HealingAny effect that restores lost hit points to a player character or ally. Other types of restoration are listed other Restoration. Temporary hit points are listed under Buffs.: |
|
Instant DeathThis produces an Instant death effect on at least some types of target. Red-named bosses are immune, as is anyone with deathblock.: |
|
DebuffA harmful effect other than physical damage.: |
|
DamageThe amount and type of damage inflicted.: |
|
ScalingUnrecognized term: Scaling: |
|
ProficiencyItem(s) for which the ability imparts proficiency. For example, Master's Touch lists Simple or martial weapons, shields, tower shields.: |
