Vampire isn't a passive skill.

[Krahhl]

Yes it is. A passive skill is any skill that doesn't require input to activate, whether it can be lobotomized or not. I would say something like devourer is more of an innate passive, since every devourer has it no matter what. Adrenaline is a status effect.

There was a whole discussion of this and because the game calls them active skills not passive skills they are active skills.

That's legitimately stupid. You don't activate it, therefore it should not be called an active skill. How about a passive active skill then, as opposed to an active active skill?

That was exactly what I proposed , Found the topic and linked it to post where discussion starts http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11691.msg154836#msg154836

this game have 3 type ability

active skill : skill that must pay a cost to use.  can be lobo

passive skill? : skill that don't want to pay a cost.  write under card (not in card text  but you can see it under creature when you play it,  like scaventure.).  still be lobo

innate skill (i'm call it innate for easy understand  but zanc still call it passive,  but that very different from first passive) : skill that don't want a cost to use.  don't write under card when it stay in arena, but still be in card text.  like swarm,  airborne,  drain(i can't remember that name but it's pest skill) .  this thing can't lobo

Actually the one you call passive is another kind of active skill, and the passives are the ones that can't be removed by lobo (innate sounds perfect, but it's not the way it is)

ah..  yes  i know it.   that why i'm put ? after passive   

btw...  that three type make me sick with how to call it...

[Ekki]

Err, don't understand

Actually they are actives (both the ones with costs and activation and the ones like vampire and scavenger) and passives (not affected by lobo)

He means he wants to call it passive but put a question mark because it's not called passive.

Anyways, the wiki called it Triggered Active (click), Non-triggered Active (automatic), and Passive (automatic and can't be lobo'd)
