Inaccurate power icons

[Vanden]

I've compiled a list of every inaccurate or misleading power icon I could find in the game; it's several hundred entries long. The list is split into 3 major categories:

 

• Objectively Wrong Icons, where the border or symbol of the power simply gives an incorrect description of the power, or the icon colors don't match the rest of the set.
• Subjectively Wrong Icons, where the info on the icon is not necessarily inaccurate, but could be misleading, such as making the power look stronger than it is, or focusing on a minor aspect of the power's effects over the primary purpose
• Vanden Wants To Change Them, where my personal preferences for power icons are on full display, and I put things like wanting to recolor sets, or redefine the meaning of certain symbols, in order to make them clearer.

 

Every inaccurate icon entry also contains a "fixed" version, which shows what I believe the icon should be. In many cases I believe the mockups for fixed versions are good enough to drop in-game as-is, but there are cases where the colors don't exactly match if you look closely enough.

 

There is also a fourth category containing mockups for proc icons. These icons are an entirely new design scheme I came up with, since procs invariably use placeholder icons from seemingly random spots, like Chance for Build Up procs using the Quickness icon from Super Reflexes, or the Force Feedback proc using the Soul Transfer icon from Dark Armor. They're meant to be eye-catching and stand out when they appear on your buff bar.
