This is a template created for use anytime you want to produce a pop-up mouseover tooltip. The tooltip automatically provides CSS styling and border similar to the in-game windows. Tooltip can display anything you write into the template, but the most common usage is to provide another template filled with data.

Usage: Create a new page with the name <something>/Tooltip. For example Templar Sword/Tooltip. Copy this code to the created page and fill in the parameters (or delete if you don't need both):

{{ {{{1|Tooltip hover box}}}
|title=
|body=
}}

For example, filling it like so

{{ {{{1|Tooltip hover box}}}
|title= My page
|body= <br>Lorem ipsum dolor sit..
}}

will produce this result:

My page
Lorem ipsum dolor sit..


If you already have a page with data, you can load that data into the tooltip. For example, if I want to see the weapon description from the Templar Sword page, then I can call for this page's data by using the page name (and appropriate parameter if needed). In this case, Templar Sword page uses parameters, so we can simply call for Description.

{{ {{{1|Tooltip hover box}}}
|title= {{:Templar Sword|Description}}
}}


Another option is to fill the tooltip box with another template. In this example, we will use the Template:Quote and fill in the values Quote and Author:

{{ {{{1|Tooltip hover box}}}
|title={{Quote|Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.|Oscar Wilde}}
}}
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
~ Oscar Wilde
