Make Ice Bow an elite skill
So FGS would become a utility skill? Could work if they swap they cooldowns, honestly.
Also, I would propose FGS gives pulsing swiftness while holding it, because it is just a mobility tool.
I wouldn’t mind, but people might complain about the insane mobility FGS would give Eles if the cooldowns were swapped. Imagine having an escape tool every 60 seconds as opposed to every 3 minutes.

It means that d/d ele would have to give up a cantrip to take, while dps eles would RELISH the mobility.
An escape on a short CD is one thing that prevents dps ele from being a thing. Mesmers have stealth on a 40s ICD, thieves have shadow refuge on 60s ICD, warriors have rush on a 20s ICD (while RtL is a 40s ICD when used to escape).
Idk if d/d ele would actually use frost bow to better effect than fgs or not.

I guess you could make all conjure weapons on an elite use so fire give you the GS water gives you the bow earth shield and lighting hammer. Just put all the weapons on the level of the GS and add more charges or make it a pure duration effect. You could go as far as simply removing conjure weapons from the game as a utility and add an signet of conjuring giving it some type of passive effect and when you use it you call down a wepon of the element type you are in but call down 2-3 of them + the 1 in your hand or something.

I would change autoattack for Frost bow to shot big water-icy-transparent multitarget sphere.
Frost bow as elite skill would be ok.
In look like terms fgs is more epic, but cuz of mostly only mobility usage its deserve to be degrade into utility. 60s for mobility skill seems ok.
120s cd of Frost bow would calm demands to nerf it.
You mean I can take arcane wave, glyph of storms, signet of fire, and ice bow? Sign me up.
I dont think this would be a good solution. It would see less use of ice bow, but still be abusing ice storm with line casting. I’dd suggest making Ice Bow a more healing and condi oriĆ«ntated weapon as it’s supposed to be, since it gives healing power and condition damage.
For example, double the the bleeding it gives still making it a very very strong skill for condition builds. Also give it bigger healing power scaling (Like really big: 1.5?) and let Frost Volley apply Frost Aura apply to allies when cast.
Ice bow is a gimmick. It needs to be Smite booned. And this is coming from someone who plays Ele for dungeons on a daily basis.
