Notes:
Cost and damage values vary based on character level.
All Ultimate, Active and Passive skill data was collected from level 1 characters with the following exceptions:
  • Mages' Guild, Fighters' Guild and The Undaunted skill line data was collected from level 3 characters.
  • Alliance War, Lycanthropy and Vampirism skill line data was collected from characters of various levels.

Morphs:
Morph data is difficult to collect because it's not shown until the morphs become available. Since there are many variables that affect morph specs like range, duration, cost, etc. and because they can be unlocked at different times ... those numbers are hard to compare across skill lines. Because of all this, I have not filled in any of the spec data on morphs, only the name and the new effect.

Legend:
Ability Types: {U} = ultimate; [A] = active; [M] = morph; (P) = passive
Stats: RANK = skill rank required; LVLS = ability levels; CAST = cast time (inst=instant, s=seconds, pass=passive, chan=channel); TGT = target; RG/RAD = range/radius (m=meters, rg=range, rd=radius); DUR = duration in seconds; COST = ability cost (ult=ultimate, mag=magicka, stam=stamina)
