Have the Elite skills & some others be "spent" for the entire account x days after skill bar selection, the chosen skill bar lasts as long as the player doesn't return to a town/outpost/mission. A spent skill cant be reselected until its cooldown has ended.
This will force players to create different builds with different skills, or play less. Farmers can only "abuse" their farm combination as long as they don't return to an outpost.

I do not want to be forced out of a build that I may be testing in various areas.
I do not want restrictions on what and how I play.
I do not want these stupid, destructive ideas to go any further.

This is as bad as,if not worse than the idea of having to pay for the skills...Seriously they're skills not cons and the only problem from SF is UWSC,ergo leave the skill alone and do something to UW.

Just stupid.. no need to punish anyone for abusing OP'd skills.
You have less fun when others farm/have more money/abuse skills more than you?
I hope not.

Say you screw up a mission and get returned to outpost. Then you have to pick a new elite and rebuild to retry the mission? How is that going to work for newer players, who may not even have more than one elite yet? Even for a Legendary Skill Hunter, there are only a handful of elites in each line, many of which are worthless, so they would quickly run out of elites when doing multiple missions in the course of "X" days. (Z-quests, for example.)
What about people exploring in a new campaign, moving through explorables and adding new outposts to their map? Rebuild each time you enter a new outpost? And each time you enter an outpost to pick up a quest reward and get the next quest in a chain? Ridiculous!
Are you SO fixated on how some people are farming that you can't spare two seconds to think about the players who are doing other things?

Wow. If you hate the game that much that you would destroy the entire build system concept (one of the greatest things about guild wars), just friggin' QUIT the goddamn game already. We're better off without you.

I'm actually a bit sarcastic.
No I dont hate the game, but I dislike the increasing horde of lazy zombie players that are spamming/begging everywhere. Thank God for turn off chats and ignore options.
Yes, one wouldn't want to fail a mission- In the event that this suggestion would ever be realized. Yes it would make the game much more difficult and tedious.
But the pay off would be a significant reduction to all these spam that skills are overpowered. End of spam that farmers or runners are degrading the game. Spam about paying others to speed accomplishments -people would probably increase this.
Guild wars are much more than the a set of skills & has a whole lot more to offer below the surface.

Examine closely what you are suggesting. The backlash would be huge and Guild Wars and A Net would suffer greatly for it.

I really don't see a logical reason for this so not signed.
Whatever others do in the game is pretty much up to them and doesn't bother me in the least.

This is what's going to happen:
"I'm so tired of WoW, I want to play another MMORPG"
"Wow, what's GW? It's cheap and looks good, let's try it"
*Buys Prophecies*
*Wait for 4 hours until all updates are installed*
"Kewl, lets play a Ranger. what's this? this quest says I should go back to Ashford but I can't use any of my skills??"
"Screw this, gw sucks, I'm gonna try Maple Story"
"Wow, hopping mushrooms - it's like a dream come true"
*Gets addicted and dedicates all his life and money for a pixel hair change*
Stop "suggesting" things without thinking them over.

this is one of the worst ideas ive heard in a very very long time, do you realize what this would to new people who don't have a hundred different skills. also this would force you into using elites and skills that are absolutely useless and/or doesn't work for the situation at all. Im sure there are poeple who play GW for so long that they might exhaust all of their skills in that particular profession, im not one of them i hardly play. There isnt a huge farming problems, only a couple of problem area namely UW with its UWSC, if you add additional counter measures in to the UW that would solve a lot of things.

This idea is so ridiculously bad that i'm going to assume its a troll since no-one with half a brain could think that through and consider it a good idea.
not only is it /notsigned but its so retarded i wish it was /notread

ya know wat i think if he hates the skills like they are he should make his own private server and PLAY BY YOUR SELF instead of screwing people over

I think that the best way it's even the most obvious: the old, good nerfing; nerf the combination so good players won't see no more perma-sin steal their place in a group.

The problem with this idea is that there will ALWAYS be more potent/powerful skills for certain areas or PvE in general. Spiteful Spirit, for example, is one of the most universally useful skills in the game. Nobody really calls it broken now, do they? And yet you're forbidding use and forcing another Curses elite which would be VASTLY inferior for general gameplay.
Unique builds are fun for people who know how to create synergized, functional builds. But have ya ever been in a PUG? Unique builds are not always necessarily functional or fun to play. Most of the time, they're flat out stupid. At some point, even good players would be forced into using these ridiculous, hobbled together builds.
And that's not fun at all.

P.s.: it's seems to me that the main problem right now is SF, not SS, on which I have nothing against

Ok, then, what is my dervish supposed to do, then? There's only a handful of builds for him that don't completely suck, so under this suggestion I'd pretty much be forced to suck most of the time.
But even worse than that would be the problems for the paragons. They only have one really good build. What are they gonna do, huh?
Instead of enforcing balance, all this would do is create more imbalance, only the more versatile classes (such as the necromancer) would become the overpowered ones.

There are tons of dervish builds that "don't completely suck." But as you seem adamant upon believing is that if something is not at the tip top of perfect efficiency then it sucks, by your definition every single class only has a handful of builds that don't suck.
But the OP's idea is downright terrible. Guild Wars doesn't need some new and fancy system for balance, the balancing just needs to be in the hands of people that really do understand the game well.

So basically your solution to preventing abuse of overpowered skills is to simply block people from using them EVERY TIME THEY GO OUT?
Definately the worst solution to this problem, possibly the worst suggestion to come up in a long while.

You mean have skills have uses, so you are forced to use other skills? O_o...

My favorite has to be tying skills to consumable items. Like it's not plainly obvious they got that stupid idea from WoW (Flash Powder anyone? Even WoW realized how stupid that idea was...)
Ugh
What would my ranger do after I run out of Barrage or BHA?

An interesting way of exploring those little used secondary elites as BrettM has mentioned.
Would also make pugging a scream - enter group, ping your healing bar. Cue "WTF dude, why do you have Signet of Spirits in your bar for????". Reply "I has no choice "
