The Worst Skill!
KalleDamos
What is by far the worst skill in the game? This goes for any professions, Monster and End-Boss skills. Which one do you think is by far the stupdiest thing Anet could have ever come up with and either needs to be remove, or seriously buffed.
My vote goes for [skill]Peace And Harmony[/skill] , [skill]Balthazar's Pendulum[/skill], and [skill]Mark of Death[/skill]

Mending.
Even worse than any skill...
I also think Ursan is by far the stupidest thing ANet could come up with, and needs to be removed or seriously nerfed....

Mark of death is a quality skill, could be great in spike teams.
Worst skill, I've gotta say Resurrect, with a worst elite being Unyeilding Aura

Theres nothing wrong with stopping 33% of the healing imo. I totally agree with you Peace and Harmony however. I'd have to say [skill]wastrel's Collapse[/skill] is probably up there as well. I dont see a whole lot of use for it. Certainly not enough fo it to be an elite.

If they nerfed Ursan, which is 'overpowered' then why stop there, why not nerf SY! and TntF! as well? Ursan makes it easy, but it is a pve skill, they are not going to change it any time soon, but yeah, mending is really a sad skill, and once apon a time I was a mending wammo, then I learned wth I was doing.

Very true, but How often do you see a sin that specs enough Deadly Arts to really get much use out of the skill while still being an effective damage dealer

That's a good question but I think alot of people agree with me when we say Hundred Blades as being an Elite Attack. It's not worthy of being ELITE, it should be a regular skill, then maybe it'd be a bit more popular.

"TNTF!" already got the nerf. Wouldn't be bothered if "SY!" got debuffed though, as long as it isn't too much considering how strong it is. But not in the same league as Ursan.

How can you list PnH and Balth's pendulum as the worst skills? Do you even play this game? :S
If anything, it's crap like light of dwayna.

Iron Mist is great for the Doppelganger.
Mending is great for 55'ers.
so they do have some uses, if very, very limited.

I'm going to say Mending, but only because it is a complete waste of a skill slot on anything other than 55 builds.
Wastrel's Collapse might be worse, but only because it wastes an elite slot.

Try playing anything else than pve? It's a very viable skill in arenas.

It's bad because:
You need to completely spec into another attribute (a somewhat subpar one at that) to get the most out of it. It also only lasts once. It's also a waste of an elite for a monk when there are much better ones such as Zealous Benediction, Word of Healing, Divert Hexes, Restore Condition, etc. A much more effective, non-elite version can be found under Protection Prayers: [skill]Aura of Stability[/skill].
If it's so viable, why do no monks run it?

As most of you are posting elite skills:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10008331
Already a thread about that.
My non-elite worst ones:
[skill]Burst of Aggression[/skill] useless imo, need buff
[skill]Signet of Strength[/skill] same

I suggest you read the skill descryption again....

They do... I've seen it in action and it just stops many builds based on knockdowns.
I never used it myself cause I prefer ZB but It is a good skill, and it's fun to see shove war knock himself down. BlackSephir

it's a quick snare that works on runners, but it doesn't have any use outside of AB, since even monks who kite stop to cast a quick prot. spell before five seconds.

PnH is weak, however the idea is fine. There are just better skills available
BP isn't that bad, most of the time you would prefer an healing/prot elite, however the fact that it can stop spikes with such low investment is worth noting. Would say Archer's Signet is bad. Concept is bad, you need alot of expertise to make it worthwhile, however with high expertise you can already spam your skills, while being a bit thoughtful on spamming the elite. However that slot is already taken. and of course Augury of death is bad, if it wasn't abused by something it wasn't meant for LightningHell

[skill]protective bond[/skill] This is a bad skill. I don't know how it can be used effectively in any situation, including farming. Wakka

Its inferior in almost everyway to AP and it should basically never be used ever. Unless your running 2 Rangers running similar builds, one with AP one with BA, why you would want to, I don't know but hey.

Strictly speaking, I think skills that are completely useless to every build imaginable (e.g. [skill]Protective Bond[/skill]) are inferior to skills that are completely useless except if you're running a significantly subpar build (e.g. [skill]Archer's Signet[/skill] with [skill]Concussion Shot[/skill], instead of [skill]Prepared Shot[/skill].)
