As you know from other posts, my skills look like this:
Name           Mastery   Name           Mastery   Name           Mastery
Advanced polea sliver    Advanced sword advanced  Polearm        sliver    
Kick           average   Expert polearm sliver    Sword          expert    
Expert sword   advanced  Sneak          sliver    Trip           sliver

Now I have regexp triggers to colour the mastery parts of the skills various colours. red, blue, green, yellow, etc, etc.

Anyways, I had a problem with Advanced sword, it would colourize the Advanced, I fixed that by making it case sensitive. However, Blademaster is a problem.

How would I make it so that it would only colour the mastery if it was by itself, and not linked with any other words. Like Blademaster

Read the regexp docs, they have heaps of interesting stuff in them. In your case you want a "word boundary" assertion, like this:

\bmaster\b

The \b says "assert that this is a word boundary". That works for me on Blademaster.
