Warrior Stance Skill

Can't Touch This
For 5..20 seconds, you cannot be touched. Any touch skills by either ally or foe used on you will be interrupted and they will be knocked down. You will shuffle right and left for 3 seconds each time you interrupt any action in this way.

8<----

I think the key part is the shuffle.

I think a elite Paragon should of this skill would be more intresting and more useful for a 'shout protector' class. It would also be hilarious with warriors shouting "Stop hammer time" .

LOL! Yah a Paragon shout would be even better.

Recharge 45 seconds.

For 5..20 seconds, all party members within ear shot cannot be the target of touch skills by both allies and foes. Any touch skills used on party members affected by this shout will be interrupted and cause the toucher to be knocked down. All party members will shuffle left to right for 3 seconds any time a touch skill is interrupted in this way.

This shout can be cancelled with the Warrior Shout "Stop, Hammer Time (TM)"

It would go with the much wanted ele move "electric Slide"

5e 0c 10r

Slide tack the nearest foe to deal 20-80 lightning damage, If dancing when activated foe is knocked down

why don't you just have this shout "I'm affraid of touch rangers and hopefully my mom will save me"

for 9-20 seconds, your mother will come to the ring and hit the touch ranger with the wooden spoon she was using to bake cookies with.

^ uh-oh i sense a bandwagon touch ranger, the sort that saw then and simply copied the build to the letter - and belives there the greatest for it

these people need to be obliterated, no build should be copied to the letter, not ven classics like the 55.....sigh - also you avatar...WTF?

another point what ring?

and why are you so obsessed with our mothers?

This would be rather hilarious to keep seeing a Paragon shouting "Can't Touch This!" I think this would be best (taken from some examples I saw),

"Can't Touch This"

For 10 seconds, the next time each ally within earshot is affected by a touch skill, their attacker is interupted and that skill is disabled for 5...20 seconds.

Thats hammer time, but no stopping. Needs to have a 90% slower walking speed.

Cant touch this idea is horrible, I think thats just pent up touch ranger hate.

The Hammer Time idea is actually pretty good, disagree with the 90% slower thing though that makes it useless. I'm thinking 10 energy, 30 recharge, 5-10 length, and in the strength attribute.

I don't think you realize that this is a joke.

either that or it's a joke/suggestion for another one of the countless useless skills ANET has given us.

As written I can't agree with "Can't Touch This". 5...20 is a loooong time, almost worthy of being an elite skill. Add in a kd or energy drain or disable and it's really overpowered.

If it were for 3...10 seconds all touch skills used against caster fails, it would be much more reasonable. As far as it being a shout, I'd say the duration would have to be a little less even, and the recharge time around 45.

But even then, the most dangerous touch enemy you'll face is likely to be a ranger/necro, and 3...10 seconds is still quite a bit much. It's like killing a cockroach with a bazooka.

But that's the only way to get rid of those little buggers.

I think also you missed my sugestion.


"Can't Touch This"

Shout. For 10 seconds, the next time each ally within earshot is effected by a touch skill, that skill is disabled for 5...20 seconds. (altered to make better)

I think people are forgetting the most important part of this skill... which is that it causes you to shuffle left to right for 3 seconds side to side.

Ideally it would be an e-lite and would only work if you were wearing parachute pants - which would be a max of 60 AL of course.

For added balance, maybe it could disable your skills for 10 years - kind of like MC Hammer and his rap skills. Either that or it resets your fame to 0.

There's a typo in the quote I used earlier, the song lyrics go "Stop. Hammer time!" not "stop hammer time." I can see how it's confusing if you don't know the song, but I don't think any posts in this thread should be taken seriously anyway.

I actually like this idea, even though I think touch rangers incredibly easy to counter/out heal. At least even poor players can counter against touch rangers, which will discourage usage of the lame build.

The name is awesome, btw.

Oh, this is a great idea! I love it!

My contribution:

"Stop. Hammer Time!": attribute: Strength E:5 C:0 R:30

Elite Shout. For 5...17 seconds, your hammer attacks do +5 damage, and any foe struck by your hammer moves 90% slower for 1...6 seconds. Hammer Time ends if you use an attack skill.

I find the idea original, but i have to dissagree.. I myself have been killed atleast 10 times by a toucher, and I do NOT find it annoying, since I kill plenty of touchers 2.

I think its kinda unfair to make a skill to counter a good build.. We would need the following shouts if u would have it your way: "Go degen yourself!" , "Keep your SS!" , " Loose 55hp mofo!" ,etc, etc.

Toucher is just a great solid build, and because it is so easy and good, noobs use it... Noobs who forget to bring troll unguent... And I either poison and bleed em or I degen them. (note, when poison bleeding em, run like hell after putting it on, plague touch:P)just keep running till they die from the degen, they are nothing when there is nobody they can touch.

I'm not saying this because I have a toucher, because i don't, I'm saying this because i think skills like that unbalance the game.

"STOP! Hammer Time!" [Elite] (Hammer Mastery)

5 energy, 20 second recharge.

Elite stance: Move 90%..60% slower for 12..5 seconds. For 5..12 seconds, all your hammer attacks deal 50% more damage and every time you knock down your target, your target is knocked down for an additional second.

"Can't touch this" (tactics)

10 energy 60 second recharge

All enemy in the area are slowed by 20% for 2..9 seconds and you run 33% faster for 2..9 seconds.

In all seriousness, this skill is not just to counter Vamp Bite and Vamp touch. It'd be really hand against Shock, Gale, Vile Touch, and Healing Touch!

That's right! I don't want nobody touching me, even my own monk! When your ally monk tries to touch you and gets KD'd that'll show them! Those monks and their celibacy always leading them to touching people. *raises fist*

"can't touch me" should be a warrior or assassin shout that works on themselves only. it could cause them to evade 75% of incoming attacks and all spells coming from an adjacent foe that target you only fail.

Can't Touch This

Warrior stance

For 3-10 seconds you evade 90% of all incoming attacks. You also don sunglasses and glittery silver parachute pants and shuffle back and forth while wiggling your shoulders. All enemies in the area are attracted to you and try to attack you for looking so stupid.

Stop! Hammer Time

Skill

When used while in "Can't Touch This" stance, you whip out a hammer and bash yourself over the head immediately killing you. All enemies in the area stop to point and laugh - not able to attack for the next 15-30 seconds.

They actually used this idea! It's a Paragon shout, and all touch skills on allies within earshot range fail.

I wonder where exactly they got the idea for how the skill should work?

From what I can tell, they just took my sugestion, removed the disabling part, and made it a skill.
