Guild Wars 2

This is an out-of-the-box idea for runes, possibly to be implemented on the upcoming legendary armor:

Rune set
1 – cursed! [every minute you take random(or set) damage and are knocked down]
(( I recommend fall damage to make related traits more interesting ))
2-[swiftness] for a NOTABLE duration (> 50% up-time or stacking move speed boost)
3- [retaliation]
4- [stability]
5- Utterly doomed: [random blindness/fumble/vuln or burning every X sec]
6- [permanent Quickness] (the amount of activation increase is up to developers, the quickness buff animation is just pure awesomeness).

For the armor itself a bit of shady, ominous looking armor would do nicely though i can’t help with that. As for the method of looting or crafting i would recommend a fractal recipe drop for the cursed gift and some nice twist when people actually craft it. (Maybe to get struck by lightning and die or something like that.) If the abaddon fractal is still an option that would be the perfect drop location.

Another option would be a more random bonus spread between reflection/quickness/stealth or something like that, should but since anyone and everyone will have access to the gear i don’t see any problems implementing in pve.
I realize this concept breaks into a meta skill mechanic of the game, but only to greatly enhance the fun! Simple stat-boosts are borinnngggggggggg

Permanent quickness? Really? Can you spell OP?

I like the idea though to implement some new runes and such.. :-)

I like the basic idea of the set. It would be very awesome on a conditionmancer.
