Change Spear Swipe

"This is the only non-conditional and non-elite skill that inflicts daze which can be used in PvP." -Guildwars Wiki
As said above I think we should change this skill into a lighter skill, because this is too overpowered. A daze with a non-elite! Also I think this skill should have AOE because it would make sense because it is in melee range and it is "swiping".

Example: If this attack hits, you deal +5...17 damage to all adjacent enemies. This attack has melee range. Adrenaline: 4

Please Post your comment.

If it's overpowered, how come not a single Paragon in high-end GvG uses it ever?

Just because some paragon massacred you in RA with it doesn't mean it's overpowered, 10 energy 20 recharge seems fine to me...

Unless you can use it with like, a sword or something. It doesn't say spear attack... if that's the case then it should just be changed to spear attack and nothing else.

I'm a paragon, and I say its overpowered cause its the only non-elite daze (also I secretly want to AOE...shh...).

Can't Touch this+Spear Swipe=Go away you touchers.

When a paragon yielding a spear run to melee range to you, you'll know that he is probaly going to use that.

There is already a quite cheap counter: Move away.

IMO great for PVE farming which is the Paragon lacks...

It's fine as is. There's no need to turn it into whirlwind attack.

dude... you cant use whirlwind attack with a spear!

It is so obvious when you are about to get hit with it(coming from a monk). Well it is also possible to hide it. Run all the way up within 1-2 steps using an axe/sword to make you look like one of those furius axe/sword wielder bars from pvx then switch and use spear swipe. O well still /notsigned

yea it not supposed to be a damage heavy skill or a spike skill... also u could easily just use death charge. OMG I JUST WANT A FREAKING AOE SPEAR SKILL! COMEON THIS IS THE BEST I COULD DO! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

wow, you really missed the point there. Look, if you're looking for AoE, go P/W and use some axes or swords... don't go complaining about a skill just because it is not everything you are looking for.

what if you need like a P/Mo to solo farm?

and I want to hit 5 enemies always with my hammer

huh what does that mean?

Spear swipe is somewhat conditional. You have to freaking RUN at them. It is useless in PvE because this will attract aggro to you, and it's useless in PvP because anyone with a brain will know what is comming unless you decide to use it on a warrior or something.

ALEX you know that this has been running in condition pressure builds for a few weeks now i still love you dont worry.

on the subject though... this skill IS conditional, because it is melee range. it is a powerful skill, but should be kept (partially because i feel sorry for paragons from the recent skill update =/) besides daze does NOT= win.. it just means monks have to know what they are doing to outlast its effects/remove it.

anyways, there is no use for an AoE spear skill seeing as PARAS R MIDLINE X.X

and stop saying it is useless in PvP people, because--

IT IS/HAS BEEN RUNNING IN CONDITION PRESSURE FOR A WEEK Xl

What if I want to go Me/P and solo farm? You don't, really. At least not effectively.

i was joking about giving a hammer the aoe effect on every hit like the scythe
