OKay so there are some skills you can't effectively use or are blatantly stupid. So post a skill you think is 'silly' and how you would balance it.
first up [pulverizing smash],I mean most KD skills already depend on/cause weakness and it requires adrenaline which you probably used on gettign them down in the first place(unless its club of bears), thus crushing blow is better.
Make it: 5 energy, 10r same function but add 'if target foe is enchanted, they suffer from cracked armour for 3...12 seconds'
Silly Skills Thread, how would you change them

[Earth Shaker]+[Pulverizing Smash] FTW?
Ontopic:
[Extend Enchantments]
So... you need to lose all your enchantments, to make them last longer... Ok, but you need to lose them again?
Delete the "When this enchantment ends, you lose all enchantments on you." part.

I think that Xsiriss is talking about "strange" skills, not overpowered/for-stupid-people skills...

Yeh I do mean skills that just suck, not are OP or w.e, like some of the mesmer signets eg. [signet of disenchantment]
@Picuso:my only gripe with pulverize is that its req adrenaline, I usually run devastating hammer or forcefulblow w/heavy blow, so weakness is also already there.

duration and recharge are scaled so that it can't be maintained on more than one person
it has 1s cast time, which is more than enough for a half decent ranger to dshot it, or a not so terribad mesmer to interrupt it
1s cast time prevents you from catching spikes, unless opponent melee really fail
using WoW effectively isn't that obvious, especially in GvG
if there is a problem, I think it comes form the over defensive / spike metagame, and WoW may just be a part of it (thanks for the good work Izzy)

The only thing Pulverizing Smash needs is some +damage.
MStarfire
Signet of Disenchantment = worst signet ever. The "lose all energy" caveat is LAME. Signets aren't supposed to cost energy and there are far better enchantment removals with similar recharge times. And just for kicks, you can exchange an additional 5 seconds of recharge for some neat effect like damage, self-healing, or conditioning.

Crushing foe's bones? :S
Abedeus
Deep wound isn't just cut or slash. It means, for example, crushed stomach, lungs or other internal organs. And that hurts a lot more and is much more lethal than a cut...
