We have a few joke skills in the game such as the paragon's "It's just a flesh wound!" and the warrior's "Headbutt" skill inspired by Zidane at the world cup. Well what about a new warrior skill called "This! Is! KRYTA!"

I have no idea what it could do. I haven't really thought of something that'd make this skill worth having. Maybe it could improve your armour slightly or heal you for each condition on you. I just thought that the community would enjoy a new joke name for a skill.

Please let the hype wear off, we don't need to cater 300 nerds any more.

I think it would be a shout that knocks down your target opponent.

Make it a Paragon skill.

Give the Paragons some sort of nude armor, just boot's and your Guild's cape showing.

Make a Corinth helmet.

Then all 12 million 13 year olds who made Paragons with "Leonidas" somehow worked into the the name, but only played them 2 weeks, may return in droves. Could be the biggest thing to hit Para's since TntF ;-)

Look, I enjoyed watching 300. Perhaps even more so than Sin City. But I've had enough of seeing the hundreds of "Leonidas" characters roaming the worlds of Guild Wars. It's either Spartan this or Leonidas that or blah blah blah...

I'd prefer more obscure pop culture references, but to be honest, an RPG that is riddled with too many skills named after famous quotes, songs or actors...starts to make the game just feel silly.

It would be bad idea. Too much jokes are not good.

Monty Phyton, the seventh god of Tyria, hates you.

There are NEVER enough jokes.

But the truth is that the 'This is Hard Mode' is the reference for this. So no need to add more.

Let's look for another different joke...

...Like a ritualist skill that makes a loud farting noise. That would be rather amusing.

Anyone who has ever seen Airplane! will realize that more (good) jokes = more fun.

Yes, but then you see Airplane! 2, and you realize that too many "good" jokes can cluster into a steaming pile of trash that's been left out to rot for too long. So while we have lots of neat pop culture references in the game, we should also realize that this RPG isn't a satire nor a parody of another adventure.

Guys, let's face it. When GW:EN comes out, we'll get plenty of new skills with interesting references to movies and famous quotes, so let's be patient. Anyway, that's my final opinion on the matter.

Or if perhaps people were actually RELIABLE in hard mode, we'd not have to do the whole "Let's solo the game, yet again!" and maybe actually enjoy hard mode. Maybe. Not that I have my hopes up on that because it's far faster for me to hench a mission than it is to get lucky finding at least one other skilled person on hard mode OR normal mode. But yeah! You're right! I'll go play hard mode. I could do with the laugh.

i think what would be a better is a paragon shout

"Use the force!"
5E, 2 sec cast, 30 second recharge

the next spell cast by all other allies within earshot costs 1...5...8 less energy.

i dont think there are enough starwars references.... well probably cause this is a fantsy game not a sci-fi :P

"This is Kryta!"

Shout. You character gets renamed with the following names: King Leonidas, King Leo Ni Das, King Leoniidas, Leonidas The King, King Leo Sparta, King Leonida S. For each renamed name you get 2 stacks of Adrenaline, remove 1 Hex and 1 Condition and your GW.exe encounters a problem and shuts down.

First off, I do not want these implemented but oh well, they are quite fun. Since someone asked for Star Wars references:

Warrior shout: "I Am Your Father!"
for xx seconds target foe can not atack ore use spells against you.

Necromancer enchantment: The dark side is stronger
Boosts your Necromancer attributes by 11 for xx seconds.

Warrior shout: "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"
All foes within earshot are dazed for x seconds.

Elementalist spell: Death Star
Target foe and foes in the area take xx(x) damage (and are obliverated?)

Paragon shout: "Roger Roger!"
All allies skills activate xx% faster for 10 seconds

paragon shout: "I Have A Bad Feeling About This!"
Party members gain +20 armor for x seconds

Mesmer skill: Not ready are you
Target foes skills are disabled for 5 seconds

Warrior shout "It's A Trap!"
All allies within eashot move 33% faster for xx seconds if more than 5 foes are within earshot

Coulld come up with more but it gets boring in the long run, enjoy.

I agree with the bold part
The crest makes your para look like an even bigger wimp.

This is Sparta!:
Elite shout pve only. For 5 mins, all party memebers gain +300 armor BUT only if they naked (no armor), all surrounding foes take extra 100 dmg if all party members are standing in the shade. This shout will last for an extra 3 mins if the enermies are out number you 5 to 1.

-_-........This thread is MADNESSSSSS!
