Paragon Suggestion

Leadership: You gain 1 Energy for each non-Paragon party member affected by one of your Shouts or Chants (maximum 1 Energy for every 2 ranks). The count of party members includes the caster.

I believe that this would be a great change. Anet can then stop nerfing Paragons so badly. Paragons are only nerfed because, in large groups, they are deadly in HA. This change would essentially make every energy-requiring shout cost 5 energy more to a paragon in a group of paragons than it would cost a paragon in a group of various professions. See, Incoming would cost 9 energy if you used it in an HA group of 6 paragons under this suggestion, making it pretty costly for a class with 2 e regen. However, it would only cost 4 energy in a group of 1 paragon 5 other professions. This would keep the Paragon balanced (because it would be a direct blow to multiple paragons... it doesnt make sense, either, that leaders go around giving orders to other leaders) so that they are not overpowered when in large groups but not underpowered when in balanced groups.

love the idea, hopefully they will do something like this to balance the HA build w/o completey destroying the pve paragon anymore than they already have.

I will stick with supporting effective counters, I'm tired of everyone trying to nerf something that works fine and ignore underdeveloped counters which should be better already but arn't because they were previously nerfed as well.

The paragon was just a powerful class to begin with.

All the other classes just suck.

My opinion. Stop nerfing the paragon and buff everyone else :P

Obviously I agree.

great idea, i think Anet needs to consider this so all the paragon shouts quit getting nerfed. If it's only 1 energy per person then all the 10 energy shouts can go to 5 energy and they would accually beable to be used by other professions.

im not fully sure bout this but i thought that they used e management shouts to help
