Either give every profession low (relatively) cooldown Elite skills, or remove these type of things from the game.

Oh and why is there a 30 second cooldown on the new Krait rune 6 piece bonus? Can any profession actually get even close to a 30 second cooldown Elite?

Yup. 36s on basilisk venom. 48s on signet of rage.

20s on flesh golem charge (assuming it’s still alive).

Some runesets work better on some classes than other. Perplexity rune is better on an interrupt-heavy class, guardian rune without blocks are useless…
Should we add block, interrupt, basically everything to everyone, or remove runesets altogether ?

Don’t worry, that rune set doesn’t seem to be working at all. Also, those things are there to give elites an actual purpose for some classes. Certain classes have very situational elites after all, such as Ele.

Does 5 condition conversion work better on a thief than a ranger or guardian or elementalist? Please don’t give me: with the condition meta bla bla bla thief doesn’t have condition removal bla bla bla mye mye.

Why bother being a Guardian if you don’t guard anyone?

The cooldown on the Krait runes seems to be aimed at preventing Necros from doubling-up on the activation with Summon Flesh Golem/Charge. That is the only elite skill that can be activated twice in such a short time period.

I think a thief with improvisation can be lucky and activate it also twice in a very short period.

There are thieves that run that trait?

I fail to understand how your point relate to mine. I was saying most runeset are of variable effectiveness, not just “on elite” ones.

Source? I assumed so initially when seeing the cooldown.
