Guild Wars 2

There’s one thing that has always bothered me about the Downed state: there are no in-game descriptions of its skills other than the ones you get when you hover over the skills while downed. Adding a “Downed state skills” tab to Hero > Skills and Traits would make DS skills more visible and let players read their descriptions in-game and without getting downed just to find out what the skills do.

While we’re at it – and inspired by the abbreviation I had to use to shorten the topic title – adding Death Shroud skills to the Hero panel wouldn’t hurt, either.

While you’re at it there’s also conjures and transforms. That would be a nice QoL changes, but really not necessary.

Getting Conjures and transforms there would be nice, but they’re generally easier to figure out because of their long durations.

Well having to blow a 240 sec cd to see what it does is kinda annoying.

I think they really ARE necessary. You should never have to buy a skill just to see what it really does. This goes for the Guardian books as well.

These skills should have been in there with the weapon skills from the start.

+1 for this idea, also add necro’s Death Shroud land/underwater skills to the hero panel.

+1 if conjure weapons and all trnsformations get this too

id like that
but its probably not top priority..

Well, if they’re doing a new player experience overhaul, in my opinion it should be. The skills of DS confused me much more than “whoa, should my lvl 20 character go to a level 15-25 map or a lvl 55-65 one?”

They should be on there. I play all 8 professions and when I’m downed is the only time to see the skills. At that time I’m usually not spending my time reading the skills and refreshing my memory of what they do.

It would be so much more reasonable to put these sort of skills on the hero panel so I can look them over at my leisure.
