signet of redundancy (couldnt thing of anything else)

While this skill is equipped, you can use two elite skills (in your bar), but they cost 5 more energy and take 20 seconds longer to recharge.

You slap target foe and silence (make it so he cant use shouts) him/her for 15-35 seconds.


havent figured out an attribute for this skill yet lol.
This is meant to be an IWAY killer by the way.
This one I like but with some modifications:

" Silence!"
Atrib: Strenght
Adrenaline: 8
Recharge: 30 seconds
casting time: 1/2 second


Target enemy and adjecent foes becomes silenced for 5-12 seconds(Condition)
Silenced enemies can't use any shouts and all spells has a 100% increased casting time due to missing the voice component for the incantations.

I also have another shout idea..

"Kiai!"
Atrib:Strenght
Adrenaline:7
{Elite}Shout

Target foe becomes stunned (Condition) for 1-8 seconds, Stunned enemies has all their skills disabled and do not gain adrenaline.

Fericous strike is a mixed skill basically, if it wasn't, then wtf does it give adrenaline? fericous strike was made for w/r or r/w.

Warrior

I think the warrior tactics line was missing some real TACTICS-based skills and thought a few up to try and give warriors a new place on the battlefield, other than smash-and-kill.

"For The Win!"
Elite Shout (Tactics)
5 energy 30s recast
For 8...20 seconds, nearby allies deal 1...10 more damage in combat. For The Win ends for each ally if their health drops below 90%...80% health.

"For The Lose!"
Elite Shout (Tactics)
5 energy 30s recast
For 8...20 seconds, nearbly allies gain 1...3 health regeneration, 10...24 armor, and 10...25% chance to "block" attacks. For The Lose ends for each ally if their health rises above 20...40%

Phalanx Signet

If you are holding a shield, target touched ally recieves 24...40 armor against physical damage, 25...50% chance to "block" missile attacks, 10...25% chance to "block" melee attacks, so long as you are near him/her. While Phalanx Signet is active you move 50...25% slower and deal 50...25% less damage in combat.

Envelop
Skill (Tactics)
4 Adrenaline
If you are wielding a sword, target touched ally will "block" the next attack against him or her, and you will deal 20...40 damage to the assailant if it was a melee attack.

Intercept
Skill (Tactics)
5 energy, 0s cast time, 2s recast
The next time target touched ally would recieve damage, you take the damage instead. For damage you recieve this way, you have -40...10 armor.

----------

Elementalist

I think the elementalist water line could use some love, most of their skills are, in my opinion, over-cost, and low effect, with maelstrom not even needing any water magic to have its full effect. I'm not adding elites, since water has 4 already, but some more useful normal skills.

Frigid Joints
Hex Spell (Water)
5 energy, 1s cast, 5s recast
For 8...18 seconds, target foe moves and attacks 5...10% slower and has a 5...10% chance to miss attacks. Frigid Joints ends when foe suffers fire damage.

Ward Against Missiles
Spell (Air)
10 energy, 1s cast, 20s recast

You and target foe both suffer from exhaustion.

Tremor
Elite Spell (Earth)
10 energy, 3/4s cast, 10s recast
All nearby foes suffer 10...50 earth damage. Foes suffering from weakness are knocked down.

Massive Boulder
Elite Spell (Earth)
25 energy, 3/4 cast, 30s recast
You drop a massive boulder at target foe's location. All foes near that location suffer 30...110 earth damage. Foes that were knocked down are dazed for 5...10 seconds.

Embody Flame
Elite Enchantment Spell (Fire)
15 energy, 1/4s cast, 30s recast

Explode
Elite Spell (Fire)

For 10...30 seconds, for every foe near you suffering from bleeding, you experience health regeneration of 3 and energy regeneration of 1.

Contemplation of Corruption
Elite Spell (Curses)

Mantra of Masochism
Elite Enchantment (Death)
15 energy 2s cast, 60s recast
For 20 seconds, Mantra of Masochism does nothing. When Mantra of Masochism ends, 25...50% of all the damage that was done to you during Mantra of Masochism is dealt to all adjacent foes.

----------

Mesmer

Ether Leash
Elite Hex Spell (Domination)
10 energy, 3s cast, 25s recast
For 10 seconds, whenever target foe attacks or uses a skill, you steal 1...5 energy from him or her.

Illusion of Strength
Enchantment Spell (Illusion)
5 energy, 3/4s cast, 8s recast
You are no longer weakened. For 3...7 seconds, you deal 8...18 more damage in combat. When Illusion of Strength ends, you suffer from weakness for 15...10 seconds.

Ether Shield
Elite Stance (Inspiration)
5 energy, 0s cast, 5s recast
For 10...90 seconds, the next time someone would steal energy from you, that spell fails, you steal 1...7 energy from that foe, and Ether Shield ends.

----------

Ranger

Melandru's Fury
Elite Pet Attack (Beast Mastery)
5 energy, 0s cast, 10s recast
Your animal companion attempts a Melandru's Fury attack. It deals +10...30 damage, +5...20 damage for each enchantment on target foe, and for every enchantment on target foe, he or she suffers a random condition (Crippled, Bleeding, Deep Wound, or Weakness).

----------

Monk

for 10 seconds the next monk spell you cast recharges 25...50% faster and Zealot's Vigor ends.

Font of Healing
Elite Spell (Healing Prayers)
15 energy 1s cast 25s recast
Create a Font of Healing at your location. Allies within a 17' radius experience health regeneration of 1...5, and 1 additional health regeneration for every enchantment they have.

5 energy 1/4s cast 2s recast
Target ally experiences health regeneration of 1...4. Times of Peace ends if that ally recieves any direct damage of any sort.

Balthazar's Glare
Elite Hex Spell (Smiting Prayers)
15 energy 2s cast 25s recast
For 8...18 seconds, target foe recieves 50% of the damage he deals in holy damage, and cannot gain adrenaline.

I think some of the skills listed above have potential:

mana cost: 20

Arm Cripple
Ranger skill
Arrow that cripple the arm of an attacker for 3-11 seconds. During this time the attack cannot use his arm.
mana cost:5

Demonic Poison
Necro/Ranger skill
Preperation. For 24 seconds all sommon allies are imbued with poisonuos attacks. At the cost of 20% max health for the same duration.
Mana cost: 15
Well of Depredation
Necromancer, Curses, Well, Cost: 25, Cast Time: 3, Recharge: 30.
Whenever any non-summoned creature dies in the area of this well, a lvl 2...12 masterless bone horror is sommoned.

Only curses well, has normal cost and such for a well, lower level horrors is the drawback, and you don't want it to trigger for each minion that dies in the well.

Paralyzing Shot
Ranger, Marksmanship, Arrow Attack, Cost: 15, Cast Time: 3/4, Recharge: 15.
If this arrow hits, the targets attack speed is decreased by 33% for 5...15 seconds.

Contagion
Necromancer, Death Magic, Enchantment, Cost: 10, Cast Time: 1, Recharge: 30.
For 3...15 seconds all summoned allies are diseased.

This will cause all of your minions to be diseased, which will increase their degen. As we should all know, disease is contagious, and will be spread to whoever is in contact to the minions. This will also work good on Death Nova bombs, as they will die faster.

for each hex you suffer you gain energy regeneration 1-3

Deflect spell
enchantment spelldomination

for 8-18 seconds the next time target ally would have been the target of an offensive spell or hex, random nearby foe is affected by the spell instead. and deflect spell ends.
Vindictive Hex
Mesmer, Inspiration, [ELITE] Enchantment, Cost: 10, Cast Time: 1/4, Recharge: 15.
For each hex you are currently suffering, the caster of each hex recieves 1...3 energy degeneration, which you recieve as energy regeneration. This Enchantment's duration is the same as the longest duration hex currently on you.

Mantra of Deflection
Mesmer, Inspiration, [ELITE] Stance, Cost: 15, Cast Time: N/A, Recharge: 20.
for 10...30 seconds the next time you would have been the target of an offensive spell or hex, the spell is deflected back onto the caster and deflect spell ends.



And here is a couple of my own suggestions:

Stasis
Mesmer, Domination, [ELITE] Skill, Cost: 15, Cast Time: 1, Recharge 20.
Disable the last enchantment currently on target enemy for 10...30 seconds. The target gains no benefit from the disabled enchantment, and cannot be the target of that enchantment until this skill ends. When stasis ends, the disabled enchantment continues its duration as normal.

Ominous Evocation
Necromancer, Curses, [ELITE] Spell, Cost: 10, Cast Time: 1, Recharge 25.
Disable target enemy's last used skill for 5...25 seconds.

Some of these skills are just alternate versions of skills already exsisting.
I didnt come up with all of these skills myself.
Some of them are a collection of skills from other people in skill making threads.


Warrior

Strength

Warriors Sacrifice: Skill. You exchange your health and all of your conditions and hexes for adjacent target allies health, conditions and hexes.
Cost: 8A | Cast - | Recast:20


Tactics

Balanced Stance: Shout. For 8-20 seconds, you or target ally cannot be knocked down and will not suffer extra damage from a critical attack.
Cost: 10E | Cast: - | Recast: 30

Deflection: Stance. For 4-10 seconds your receive half the damage after armor of target other ally as long as he is taking damage from in front of you.
Cost: 5E | Cast: - | Recast: 20

Mirror Shield: Stance. For 6-18 seconds, while wielding a shield, all damage that ignores armor is directed back to foe.
Energy: 10 | Cast: - | Recharge: 30

"Prepare for Battle": Shout. Party members absorb 6-28 damage for 6-14 seconds
Cost: 10E | Cast: - | Recast: 28


Ranger

Expertise

Advice: Shout. For 20 seconds when advice is used on an ally it increases their critical hit rate by 10-60%
Energy: 15 | Cost: - | Recharge: 30

Rogues Cover: (enchantment or stance) For 8-16 seconds any trap, preparation or attack you use will be unseen by your foes.
Energy: 15 | Cast: - | Recast: 30

(The skills you use that show up under your name will all look like rogues cover.
Your trap and preparation animations would turn into a basic attack stance.)


Sniper positioning: Stance. Character becomes invisible for 3-9 seconds. Stance ends if character attacks or uses a skill or comes with 10 feet of an enemy. You can not be targetted by enemies or allies while in this stance.
Energy: 15 | Cast: 1 | Recharge: 45

(You will still not show up on the radar while in this stance. This would also make your agro circle decrease to a 10 foot radius. Once a foe is within that circle this skill ends.)


No Attribute

Antidote Signet: Signet. Cleanse yourself or your animal companion of Poison, Disease, and Blindness.
Energy: - | Cast: 2 | Recast: 8

Called Shot: Attack. Shoot an arrow that moves 3 times faster than normal and cannot be blocked or evaded. If Called Shot hits a foe in a Stance they are Crippled and Bleeding for 6 seconds.
Energy: 10 | Cast: - | Recast: 4

Fight or Flight Shot: Attack. This arrow can be shot while moving for +5 damage and causes crippling for 1-5 seconds.
Adrenaline: 3 | Cast: - | Recharge: 10

(The idea for Fight of Flight Shot was to have a skill that conserved energy. With a short bow this skill is kind of spammable.)

Trick Shot: Attack. Shoot an arrow that ignores obstacles.
Energy: 5 | Cast: - | Recharge: 3


Marksmanship

Disarming Shot: Attack. If Disarming Shot hits, you strike for +3-18 damage. If this attack hits an attacking foe he suffers from Weakness for 4-18 seconds.
Energy: 10 | Cast - | Recast: 15

Precision Shot: Attack. If Precision Shot hits a foe in a stance it stikes for +13-26 damage. Precision Shot cannot be blocked or evaded.
Energy: 5 | Cast: - | Recharge: 5

(This doesn’t include dodging this shot. Its only effective as a stance killer)

Rain of Arrows (elite): Attack. Rapidly shoot 3 arrows into the air towards the target.
Energy: 15 | Cast: - | Recharge: 10

(This skill would fire 3 arrows at high arc and slightly decreased range adjusted accordingly with whatever bow you are using. These shots can be dodged easier like all high arc shots are. But it can shot over a lot of obstacles too, also like high arc shots do.)

Sniper Shot (elite): Attack. All your Preparations are removed. Shoot an arrow for double your bow range and x3 damage with a 25% - 90% chance hit.
Energy: 25 | Cast: 3 | Recharge 20

(Sniper shot works with expertise and marksmanship near maxed out. Add a conjure or judges insight and you could smack a stationary target with hella damage long before they can get to you.)


Wilderness Survival

Delayed Healing Spring: Trap. For 10 seconds, all allies in the area are healed for 15-60 every 2 seconds. This trap is triggered if an ally’s health is below 50% or after 90 seconds. While activating this skill, you are easily interrupted.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 30

(If possible this would replace the standard Healing Spring altogether)

First Aid: Skill Cleanse yourself or touched ally of Poison, Disease or Bleeding
Energy: 10 | Cast: 1 ½ | Recast: 6

Sharpen Arrows: Preparation. For 15 seconds, your arrows have 2 - 18% armor penetration.
Energy: 15 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 30


Troll Unguent: Skill. For 10 seconds, you or touched ally gain Health regeneration +3-10
Energy: 5 | Cast: 3 | Recast: 10

Vaccine Dart (elite): Skill. Shoot a dart at target ally for 10 damage at half your normal range. If Vaccine Dart hits, your targeted ally receives a Health regeration of +3 and immunity to poison and disease for 6-18 seconds.
Energy: 10 | Cast: - | Recast: 10


Beast Mastery

Call of the Wild: Call. For 10 seconds if your health reaches zero your pet will attempt to touch your corpse and revive you for 60% health. All your skills will be disabled for 10-5 seconds.
Energy: 10 | Cast - | Recharge: 60

Companions Fury: Call. For 20 seconds if your health reaches zero your pet receives +30-90 health and attacks the last person that inflected damage on you for +10 damage for 20 seconds or until his target is dead.
Energy: 10 | Cast: - | Recharge: 35

Desperate Sacrifice: Call. For 10-30 seconds if your health reaches zero you receive full health and your pets conditions while your pet dies instead.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 30


With this readjustment in some skills, we have only one necessary skill for beast masters - Charm Animal.

Charm Animal
Charm target animal. Once charmed, your animal companion will travel with you whenever you have Charmed Animal equipped. If your companion is dead, this skill will resurrected your animal with 10-58% Health and all your skills are disabled for 8-0 seconds.

Cast time for animal charming is 10 sec as usual.
Cast time for animal resurrection is 2 sec.
Cost for charming or resurrecting would be 10 energy.
Charm Animal is locked for 8 seconds when your pet dies.
Your other skills are locked for 8-0 seconds when your pet dies - reduced by 0.5 seconds with each point in beast mastery.
Each point in beast mastery reduces the skill disable penalty for pet resurrection by 0.5 seconds.
Pets suffer from DP, which is visible to the pet owner.
Pets health is visible to owner. (Health by numbers, not just health bar)
Enchantments, buffs, conditions and hexes used on pets are visible to pets owner.


Comfort Animal
You heal yourself for 10-70 points or your animal companion for 20-104 points.

To select Comfort Animal by itself would heal you.
So basically, what we have is a more expensive Orison of Healing that works for you only.
It’s less spammable with 2sec recharge, than the previous 1sec recharge. and...
-Price is reduced by expertise users.
-Providing healing for Rangers that don’t even carry pets. (Probably have to give a different name then)
Selecting Charm Animal first and then Comfort Animal would heal your pet.


Also, and this is important, if no other monk resurrection skill can work on animals, perhaps Rebirth can.
Its a primarily PvE skill and is weak enough/balanced enough to be able to help get pets back in action.
And mostly because it would be much safer to resurrect a pet to your location, than to rez him in a mob just pull agro and/or possibly die again.



Elementalist

Energy Storage

Glyph of Doublecast (Elite): Glyph. The next spell you cast will consecutively be cast again for half its cost and then takes an additional 120-30 seconds to recharge.

Energy: 15 | Cast: 3 | Recharge 25

(This pretty much leaves you open for ranged attacks, while protecting you from melee attacks. If used improperly you can hurt your teammates. If used right, you can get a wonderful advantage. This in conjunction with something like meteor shower could overpower it though.)

Jagged Rocks: Enchantment. For 10-30 seconds, all moving foes near you take 8-20 earth damage per second. No effect if stationary
Energy: 15 | Cast: 1 | Recharge: 50


Fire Magic

For 10 seconds, the area around target foe is bombarded with a rain of fire that strikes for 5-29 Fire damage each second.

Holy Wrath: Enchantment. Whenever target ally takes damage over 15 - 5% of his max health, the
remaining damage is redirected back to the source and you lose 5 energy.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 1 | Recast: 1

Supersede: Hex. For 4-12 seconds the next time a foe would heal an ally he heals a nearby foe instead and Supersede ends.
Energy: 5 | Cast: 2 | Recast: 20

Zealots Fire: Enchantment. For 60 seconds, whenever an ally is healed from a spell all foes adjacent to your target are struck for 5-45 fire damage.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 1 | Recast: 30

(Any monk with 1 point in Divine Favor can still spam Zealots Fire like crazy. Other classes can still get some good mileage out of it too.)

Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recast: 30

Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recast: 10

Energy: 15 | Cast: 3 | Recharge: 25


Death Magic

Grave Digger: Spell. Summon 1-2 exploitable corpses near you.
Energy 10 | Cast 2 | Recast 28

(With death magic at 14 you can get 2 corpses near you.)

Grave Digger 2: Spell. (generic, I know) Summon 1 exploitable corpses in your area. 50% chance failer with Death Magic 4 or less.
Energy 10 | Cast 1 1/2 | Recast 25

Energy: 15 | Cast: - | Recharge: 48

(This skill is in Fast Casting so Mesmers only will use it.)

Mantra of Insight: Spell. For 30-90 seconds Mantra of Insight is replaced with any skill the target is using as he uses them. If activated during this time you will interrupt this skill and Mantra of Insight will end.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 60

(This one is for those interrupting mesmers that find themselves babysitting a target. With this skill they can choose to monitor another player so they can baby-sit 2 players at once. So for some amount of time they double their efficiency.)


Domination Magic

Counter Spell: Spell. If target foe is casting a spell, that spell is interrupted and Counter spell is replaced with the interrupted spell in likeness of its foes attributes for 5-21 seconds.
Energy: 10 | Cast: ¼ | Recharge: 20

Invoke Rage: Spell. Targeted foe is forced to attack his current target and can not use a skill for 2-12 seconds. If the target he is attacking dies Invoke Rage ends.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 20

Spirit Break: Enchantment. For 5-21 seconds, any Nature Ritual spirit laid down in your area fails and an you take 50 damage.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 60


Illusion Magic

Confusion: Spell. Targeted foe targets nearest ally for 4-16 seconds and will be able to cause them damage during this time. Allies can damage you in turn. Confusion ends if you take 10-60 damage.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 3 | Recharge: 30

(Invoke Rage is basically a skill lock up, and both it and Confusion is sort of like Pacifism. Used together and you have an enemy turned against his friends.)

Illusion of Self: Enchantment. For the next 8-56 seconds if your health falls below 50% the next attack against you will fail and you will teleport to the place you cast this spell. This enchantment ends if you move over 130 feet outside your cast point.
Energy: 10 | Cast: 2 | Recharge: 20

Low Esteem: Hex. For 8-20 seconds target foe takes 5-34 damage for each time that foe recieves and recovers from an enchantment.
Energy: 15 | Cast: 1| Recast: 15


Inspiration

Empowerment: Enchantment. For 4-10 seconds the next skill a target ally uses cast twice as fast if that skill has a cast time of 3 seconds or more.
Energy: 5 | Cast 1 | Recast 10

Rejuvenation: Enchantment. For 4-10 seconds the next skill a target ally uses recharges 50% faster if that skill has a recharge time of 8 seconds or more.
Energy: 5 | Cast 2 | Recast 15

alright now we're getting somewhere. I must say that those elemental ideas are superb. I would love to conjure my own pwnage machines. That would be the funnest thing ever but I do think its overpowered even after looking at the pros-cons comparisons. They should decrease your attribute points in that certain area (after they're cast of course) by 2 or 3 so that all your other skills are weaker while they're on the map.

You steal 5-15 energy from target foe and target becomes exhausted.
This is incredibly unbalanced. You gain energy and target loses energy. Energy denial builds are already crazy if you check pvp. No offense to the OP.

Asplode's Nimblefeet, I like very much. Makes sense that a nature ranger could avoid traps, no?

i had a R/Mo and i just gave up my hopes on him .erased hi mand strated from ground 0 .... Rangers are waaaayyyy undeerpowered compared to all oher profesions ... true the new sorrows furnace pdate has helped a lil bit ... but in all other MMRPG's Rangers are alloweed to use Bows AND DAGGERS!!!! i proposse the introduction of daggers for rangers with minimal swing time and a not so bad dramage ... im proposing somenthing like 1/2 second per hit and a max dramage of 15 or something like that but with bonus of armor entetration!! .. it really would help ... since this way .. rangers could also tank. we could figth casters beter (u could interupt better with that fast atacking) and also u could selective atack with bow .. then finish the mosters u separated form the group with the dagge r... it would realy be an improvment .. thanks for reading ....

Alot of skills in the game could be recreated into new skills. For example, some spells could be made into maintainable enchantments.

Mending is a weak and maintainable form of healing breeze but has anyone considered a maintainable orison of healing? (target ally gains X health every X seconds while this enchantment is maintained)
How about a maintainable heal party? Obviously it would be much weaker but it's an option that may find some uses. (such as poison swamps)

Some skills could basically be copied but reversed. Let's take watchful spirit as an example here.
Instead of healing for X points when watchful spirit "ends" ...why not create a skill that heals for X "when cast" and gives a health regen of 2?

How about a temporary version of holy wrath but without the energy loss?

Most areas of skills have been covered either in the game or with previous suggestions but working around the current skills, we can create seemingly hundreds of new skills and lots of fun.

Here's a few new monk skills, while i'm posting...

Balthazars kiss.

Target ally loses X health but gains double that health after 5 seconds.

Dwaynas Promise.

Target ally gains no benefit for 10 seconds. Target ally is then healed for X points when Dwaynas promise ends.

Energetic shield.

Lose all your energy. All party members gain immunity from damage. Energetic shield ends if your energy reaches 5 or if you have 4 or more maintained enchantments.

Hmm, first of all let me just second the idea of this spell:

Jagged Rocks: Enchantment. For 10-30 seconds, all moving foes near you take 8-20 earth damage per second. No effect if stationary
Energy: 15 | Cast: 1 | Recharge: 50

However, this can be a problem if used in conjunction with any of the AE Rain spells in the game, such as Maelstrom or Fire Storm...and it would especially hurt with Lava Font. It would be overpowered. I'd like to see it as:

Jagged Rocks: Spell. You cause Jagged Rocks to rise at target foe's location. For 10 seconds, foes moving in this area take 4-28 earth damage per second and move 33% slower.
Energy: 15 | Cast: 3 | Recharge: 30

That puts it more in line with the rain spells you tend to see, and the 33% moverate reduction should make up for the damage only being dealt to moving foes. Otherwise it's very similar to fire storm.

I'd also like to see Elementalists get the ability to summon temporary creatures, walls, or "obelisks". Something along the lines of:

Water Elemental: Spell. Animate a Water Elemental at your location. For 12-60 seconds, Water Elemental attacks enemies and slows their movement. You may control only one elemental at a time.
Energy: 25 | Cast: 5 | Recharge: 60

The elementals ought to behave just like pets, except that each elemental would apply a different affect to its target. On a successful hit, Fire could cause 1 second of burning, Water could cause a 66% movement reduction for a couple seconds, Air could cause a couple seconds of Blindness, and Earth should simply deal more melee damage than the other elementals, with no added effect (since the Earth line lacks such an effect). I would suggest that the damage dealt by the elementals scales with the skill level in that attribute, exactly as it does in Beast Mastery with a Ranger's pet. However, due to the rather powerful effects these elementals cause, and balance issues, I think the attack rate should be extremely slow. Every 3-4 seconds perhaps.

Lightning Obelisk: Spell. Summon a Lightning Obelisk at your location. Lightning Obelisk will periodically cast Lightning Strike on nearby foes. If no foe is in range, Lightning Obelisk ends. Lightning Obelisk ends after 30-126 seconds.
Energy: 15 | Cast: 5 | Recharge: 60

The lightning obelisk would be the equivalent of the necromancer's ranged-attack minion, but with a MUCH slower attack rate (I'm thinking it would attack the closest enemy every 10 seconds), no movement capabilities, and much higher damage output. The Lightning Strike damage would be the same as it would for the elementalist at his/her attribute level. Just like any skill in the game, it would have its situational uses

Lyssa's Laughter - Elite Mesmer Enchantment - Inspiration

For 5-15 seconds, all energy stolen from party is redirected to you. This is a self enchantment.

-- Essentially, it doesn't help your team, but it annoys other mesmers, and helps you. The associated effects of energy-stealing spells still occurs, but the enemy caster gains no energy. This is well within the domain of the Mesmer, and has the same feel - counter/get energy/don't help allies

For a Monk, I thought of a skill that will be unusual in this game.

Power of Chi:
Blocks from attacks
Knocks down and injures enemy

Very unusal smiting skill for a Monk, close range, and it gives your hands and feet a glowing aura when this skill is use. It's like a Kung-Fu attack. Yeah....I just wanted to make up something weird for a Monk and out of the box.

Or...

It could just be a Protection skill.

Hello, i think there are a lot of overpowered skills in this thread. I tried to make some of the "worser", more conditional skills.

Scourge Ether (hex,smiting) (10 mana, 2 casttime, 5 recharge ) :
Whenever target foe gains mana from a spell, that foe loses life equal to 1-7 x the amount of mana gained.

Isolation (skill,Domination) (5 mana, 0 casttime, 5 recharge) :
For 15 seconds, the next time you are (negativly) effected or take damage from a spell that didnt target you, the effect or damage is negated and all nearby foes take 10-50 damage. (against AoE-Spells).

Spiritual Welfare (enchentment,Soulreaping) (5 mana, 1 casttime, 10 recharge)
If target ally dies in the next 5-30 seconds, that allies corpse can be targeted only by partymembers for 5-30 seconds.

Artillery String (Bowattack,Marksmanship) (10 mana, 4 recharge ) :
Shot an Arrow that moves at half speed and your bows arc is 5x higher than normal. If Artillery String hits, you arrows explode for +20-80 damage. Bonus for higher terrain is doubled for this attack. This attack isnt affected by spirits and you cannot attack nearby or adjaced foes.

Obligation Shot (Bowattack,Beast Mastery) (5 mana, 3 recharge) :
If Obligation Shot hits, you strike for +2-10 damage. If this attack hits a foe that is attacking or targeting your pet, you strike for an aditional 10-35 damage and that foe is interrupted and becomes blinded for 8 seconds.

Wear and Tear (Hex,courses) (15 mana, 2 casttime, 20 recharge) :
For 5-20 seconds target foe loses any boni from equiped weapons, shields or staffs.

Superiority of Mind (spell,Energy Storage) (10 Mana, 3 casttime, 20 recharge) :

Restlessness (hex,Illusion) (10 Mana, 2 casttime, 10 recharge) :
For the next 15 seconds, if target foe does not keep moving for longer than 7-3 seconds, that foe takes 15-95 damage and Restlessness ends.

Provisions (enchantment,Divine Favor) (5 Mana, 1 casttime , 5 recharge)
After 3 seconds target other ally is healed for 50-150 life. Provisions can not be stacked.

Side by Side (stance, healing) (10 mana, 0 casttime, 20 recharge) :

Ressurection Aura: Cast 4, Energy 15, Recharge 60.
For 30-90 seconds, Allies inside Ressurection Aura are ressurected every 8 seconds. When Ressurection Aura ends or if ressurected Ally leaves its radius, Allies ressurected by this skill are killed. Deaths occuring from Ressurection Aura do not incur a Death Penalty. (Divine Favour?)

I know, I know, another Ressurect skill. This though can be used with some strategy. Like a ward or a well, it isn't cast on anyone so it can't be stripped. It could me somewhat powerful to use though interrupts could prevent it as it has a longer casting time. Allies ressurected by this skill must stay in it or they die. Much like Vengance, but a little twist.

What about....

Glyph of Distance
Your next spell can be cast at twice the distance, and has a 50% recast time.
10 Mana, 1 sec cast time, 20 second recharge.

Elite for elem, not overpowered.

I beleive elems need some kind of help as their elemental skills are seeming a bit less used and a bit less powerful as new builds are evolving... Here is an overpowered one...

Djinns Destruction
If target enemy has any enchantment, this deals 400 unconditional damage, and enchantments are removed.
..... Yeah, thanks ANet....


anybody see what im getting at? haha

Another, slightly overpowered, however not really? as elems need some help...

Glyph of Ultimate Power
Your next spell cast deals double damage, and causes double exhaustion if applicable
cost, 10 energy, cast time 2 seconds, recharge 30 seconds

Maybe something to spice up a rangers life...

Boom Headshot
Your next arrow will be treated as a bullet hitting the person in the head causing an instant kill.
cost, 1 bullet, preperation time, click, recharge, depends how much of a pro you are if you can reload fast, good... if not, learn how...


I'm really leaning towards a new profession... like, ninja or shogun, using a katana, or two handed sword as a weapon, or maybe throwing stars... or something atleast, ninjas and shoguns own... that would be an awesome new profession.... anyway a couple of those are pretty cool skills... others mock a few things, lol
