I have changed all icons to the black-border-PNGs that are now the GW2wiki's standard icons and added an additional table with Combo Fields and Combo Finishers that come from Conjures and Arcane skills.
I have also added durations and stacks of conditions. With conditions that don't stack it is no problem (like Blind) as it simply shows the time before they run out. With stacking conditions there is a problem: Durations are not the same with the skills as well as how many stacks a skill can apply, as some apply more than one. I really wonder if adding "numbers" to the conditions is a good idea and will not confuse more than giving precise information.

Anyway, this is the current GW2wiki status quo.
