New Necro skill - Demonic Haste

Its possible this thread has been made or the skill already exists in Factions, i didn't check the new nec skills that much and couldn't find anything in search.

Basically is the necro running skill.

Sacrifice x% life and gain 33% movement speed for x time.


Nothing overpowered or special, not upto me what values x takes either, just a Necro equivilant or Illusion of Haste really.

I think a better version would sacrifice health when it ends.

/signed I agree with the idea of adding a speed boost to all clases, look at the poor healbots, they are always the last one in the race away from the mobs.

Yeah, a cripple or running skill would be nice. It's one of the first things I noticed about necro's. But I wonder if that won't make the class a bit too good. In a way it's kinda nice having some skill gaps in each class.

I can't see an enchantment, that can be removed easily, plus you sacrifice life for it, overpowering the class. It would be a situational thing really anyway. Illusion of Haste is pretty useless outside of taking your mesmer running. I always thought it was a hex at first, a bit like Reckless Haste (or whatever that new necro skill is called).

Would make sense though Lampshade, like Illuision of Haste when it ends you get crippled, the necro version could make you lose health.
