Is it just me that sees this skill as a joke? Its like they're playing on the year-old echo-mending joke.

[Edit: Sorry if this was meant to go in the Arcan Repositary or Off-Topic section.]

"Go For The Eyes!", Boo, "Go For The Eyes!".

I was dissapointed there was no skill called "Butt-Kicking For Goodness!", though.

Also, there definitely NEED to exist an exhaustion-causing skill called "Tiax' Reduction".

yeah, obviously some people in design really can't get enough of Monty Python...

"None Shall Pass"

at least it's monty python and not like...american idol or some idiotic crap like that

there's others, not sure if there's people that still haven't realized the Homestar Runner reference in Rodgort's Invocation or Mark of Trogdor...I mean Rodgort.

of course, we also have:

Kilrooooooooooy Stoneskin!

or whatever that little wannabe Leroy's name is. People with senses of humor. good stuff. keep it up Anet.

Look closely at the skill icon, and then try to remember NBA Jam.
