Guild Wars 2

you should not be able to selfres with certain skills, neither util nor elite especially when not every class has access to it.
change those skills to only affect other players and not yourself. i am not talking about ranger/guardian downed skills.

when you put effort in downing somebody you should be rewarded with a kill.

ofc there are ways to block the selfres but cmon… this should not be possible.

This adds a certain skill element to the game though, timing a warbanner or spirit to go off as soon as you down. And as far as I’m aware you can only use these res skills on yourself on Warriors, Rangers and Engineers.

Elementalists also get a self-res, FYI.
Glyph of Renewal cast in Fire Attunement will resurrect an ally within an area, and give a 15-second (!) buff to the caster that gives an auto-res.
For the other attunements: Air teleports the resurrected ally to the caster, Water resurrects to full health (and may be able to actually res a poisoned/low health player, which most other res skills struggle with - not tested this though), and Earth resurrects up to three allies in a large area.

You rarely see Eles running with this skill, though, because Glyphs are a pretty bad utility choice - they’ve got unreasonably long cooldowns (probably due to their versatility - see also Arcane Abatement initially being a Master-tier falling damage trait) and very little trait support. Due to this, it’s much better to bring a cantrip or a conjure or pretty much anything else, rather than rely on a >3 second cast skill to get you back up during that tense moment.

Would love that but i think thats indiscutable.
