My favorite skill to use is headbutt. I rarely ever run with it but it's a lot of fun. My most used skill is probably "For Justice" because all but one my spear attacks are adrenaline based. I'm pretty gimp without adrenaline.

Least favorite would probably be Harrier's Toss. So pointless...

Mine used to be Sundering/Penetrating Attack BEFORE THE NERF (@#$%@&%^#$) now I like Crippling Shot the most because its spammable and annoying to melee characters ^^, but the least favorite skill is Splinter Shot for its high energy consumption compared to its damage, I may have used it only once since its addition to the game.

For PvP: Infuse Health
For PvE: Pain Inverter in HM. Too funny! I always feel like writing "Owned yourself?" but then again, dead monsters would not answer

I love when people obey my orders. Ever single time I've used this skill so far, target foe was finished.

I am sure there is, but a poster can't win. If you bring back an old post you get lambasted for doing so and if you start a new one you get lambasted.
To the OP my favorite skill is Barrage and can't think of a least favorite.
