“Nothing Can Save You!” – unless you run away.

The close combat of the Reaper is excellent and the chill helps to keep a foe in range, but I sometimes found maintaining melee range in WvW and PvP challenging – Reaper’s weakness (fair enough).

“Nothing Can Save You” is a great shout thematically and, if used at the right time, in PvP can be a lot of fun. However, I think this shout could become more competitive as a utility skill and more thematic if it also granted Switness or Super-speed.

Maybe we could get a new set of runes that give super-speed on shout similar to trapper runes giving super-speed on trap placement.

Could be cool, but Shouts already have a rune set.

That’s exactly how it’s ment to be. The counter to Reaper is range and kiting, but once it gets on you and starts putting out some chills and pulls, it starts swinging in their favor.

So? That is a defensive shout set, why not add an offensive shout rune with Power/Ferocity and Fury/Super Speed on Shout use?

I’d rather see rune sets for things like Wells and physicals.

Why can’t both happen? There not a universal zero-sum “rune budget” where serving one group blocks another.

After the propagation of skill types to new classes its probably time for a whole wave of new rune sets.

i am speced to move quicker when in shroud form so chasing people down is not an issue. that and if you know how to use some of the utility skills 7-0 you can end groups at a time. hell the AOE freeze elite skill is a blast. i dropped 2 thief’s with it then focused the guardian and killed him. never once lost more then 10% hp.
