With all the talk of skills that suck, or should be nerfed, or whatever else - let's have a fun skill related thread. What (funny) skills would you like to see created?

Here's a few to get started:

Glyph of STFU. When cast, will keep target player's text from being displayed in any channel or in their speech bubble.

Signet of Summon Monk: Will bind a random monk in the same area to your team. Said monk cannot leave until the party's return to a town.

(Before flaming me - these are for humor value only!!)

So what do you all have?

Babel fish, translates your instructions into a language understandable by all team members. For example, typing, "Please don't take the quest yet" becomes, "OnLY Nubs t4ke quest0rs!1!" and draws a large phallus on the mini-map.

"Godly Smite" - when activated, all traders in LA who use the word "Godly", "1337" etc. in their pitch, and any traders using the public chat channel lose whatever item they are trying to sell, as well as 50% of their platinum, and all contents of their storage.

"Guardian Angel" - A protective aura is cast on the player that lasts from between their transgression over to post-sear right up to their journey up to Sanctum Cay. During this time, the player has a good knowledge of how to play the game, does not fall for blatant scams, and is unable to perform or show any n00bish traits.

"Telekinisis" - For 10 seconds, player is able to delve into another player's inventory and storage and take whatever they like without other player noticing - Only works if other player has a HP of 105.

Nicely done!!! Keep 'em coming!

A co-worker of mine (who plays WoW not GW) says he wants a weapon that has a very minor chance of completely deleting the enemy player's account.

OMG - I just had a brainstorm....

Signet of Ventrilloquism - (for PvP) - allows you to send one team chat message to the other team - impersonating one of their players
e.g. "Don't rez me - I'm OK" or "Sry I'm a smiter monk only." etc.

Illusion of Wealth - (for PvP) - looks like someone dropped a sigil - or other rare item - if they're prone to reflexive grabbing the victim will suffer 18-60 damage and health degen of -3

Pinata's Curse {Elite} - (for PvP) target will immediately drop all contents of bags and backpacks - which anyone can collect (I really, really want this skill)

Aura of Inebriation - all enemies within a certain radius are afflicted with the effect of 1-10 Dwarven Ale for 20 seconds

Aura of the Glitch - all enemies within a certain radius fall into any nearby map glitches for 10 seconds (e.g. stuck in stairs or in a rock)

Glen/Glenda Hex - changes gender of target - effects are permanent unless higher level remove hex is applied or same caster applies Hex again

Rabid Curse
- makes target Ranger pet attack owner with added poison damage

Leash Law Curse - makes target Ranger pet remain within the aggro circle of the owner at all times. If Ranger calls a target - the pet will attack but also pull the Ranger along keeping him in the aggro radius.

Barrel of Monkeys - (for PvP) your entire team appears as Mo/W to the other team for 12-35 seconds

Popup Hex - {Elite} (for PvP)- target gets screen popup ads that appear at a rate of 3 pips. Effects last 120 seconds or until they clear all popups which will end Popup Hex

"Leeroy!" - Shout - Warrior gains +25% speed and gains attack and armor bonus only to farthest enemy on his map. For the duration of skill - player chat is disabled from receiving messages.

Happy Feet - target is locked in /dance emote for 10 seconds - or until attacked (works a lot like pacifism) - (actually this one might not be bad for a real skill - LOL)

Bullybait - warrior skill - cast on self - to the enemy you appear as a Mo/W with a low health bar - the chat gets spammed with "I have 2 out of 35 energy!"

Ward Against Asshats {Elite}
For the next <1-365> days, any potential morons cannot join your group. Only works if you have a Necro, Ranger, or Mesmer in your group. Having two of any said classes doubles the duration of the Ward.

Mantra of Intelligence
For the duration of your playing session, any stupid comment shouted at you by a 5 year old gets blocked. This mantra ends if you use L33t-sp34k

Signet of the Necro {Uber-Elite}
For the next decade, any necro will pwn the hell out of any Monk, Warrior, or Elementalist

"WTF WHERE ARE THE HEALS?!?!?" (Shout)
For the duration of the mission, the next time a warrior runs ahead of the monk, dies, and complains to the monk, they are unable to be ressurected, they will receive 0% of the gold dropped, and every other member will take their share of whatever items/gold is on their person. This shout doesn't work if the Warrior's IQ is above 5

Glyph of Reasoning {Elite}
For the next mission, your entire team will realize that they do not need 3 monks to do the mission with, and that perhaps bringing a damn mesmer will help vs. monk bosses

Bill Gates' Stance
During farming expeditions, if your total current gold is less than 100 plat, all drops are normal and not nerfed. If you try farming using this stance when you have tons of gold, all monster hits against you are 1 hit KO, protection skills have no effect, and poor people everywhere will start demanding money from you

Mojo Capture Signet (for male elementalists) - Capture and use target player's /dance for the next 10 minutes, while they are stuck with your dorky "Elaine" dance.

Order of Spears - too much dancing in your underwear will make the target trick turn into a fat, pimply, used-up looking piece of trailer-trash.

See the Truth - target trash-talking player's toon changes form to that of the person playing it, so everyone can laugh at the trash-talking sexually-frustrated fat 13 year-old behind the big, mean-looking warrior, or hot sexy little necro.

Internal Revenue {Elite}- creates a lvl 7 IRS agent - attacks don't do physical damage but each strike takes 10-20% of gold on player. If player is out of gold then each strike takes a random piece of equpment - including equipped armor weapons and runes!

Nitrous Oxide - target is stuck in laugh emote for duration of the skill or until he is attacked

Earthworm –axe attack- target enemy is cut in half down the middle. Enemy retains control of top half where he is able to either fight or crawl at cripple speed – but not at the same time. Meanwhile lower half of body runs around randomly unless caught – which causes skill to end.

What.....is the air speed velocity of an unladened swallow? (hex)
