Tree removal does not establish that an ability disappeared. Check baseline ability changes before treating it as a lost tool.
New means no Classic equivalent is recorded. Changed can refer to an effect or rank cap; moved means its position changed. An effect and its position can change together, so inspect both sides before rebuilding your allocation.
Not necessarily. Some abilities become trainable or baseline. Check the Forever ability notes rather than treating absence from a tree as evidence of removal.
Check baseline abilities →Only when the compared ranks and conditions are equivalent. This page can show recorded text from different ranks, so it is not a numerical damage comparison. Open the complete reference to inspect the available values.
