Right, I quite like Glyph of Elemental Power but i think we should have have a more defensive version that gives boons rather than conditions.

Fire: Might
Water: Regen/Health Steal
Air: Fury
Earth: Protection

It would still be the same as the current one with 45second cool down, 30 second duration and 25% chance on Critical Hit.

What do you guys think?

ehhh… Ele already has Inscription, and Elemental Attunement and Glyph of Elemental harmony.
I don’t know what to say about that, but I think we already have a decent amount of quick access to boons.

“decent” can be improved and most of them require certain traits in different lines.

I personally think this would be a good addition, especially for builds that can’t go into the traits to get other boon based traits.

I prefer it the way it is now. You already have traits to get boons, not to mention Glyph of Elemental Harmony performing a similar role. Also, assuming you use Elemental Attunement (which most boon users would), you’re already close to maxing boon durations anyway. So a condition version is much more useful imho.

If you can read this then it is proof that ArenaNet’s moderators just, kind and fair.

I am at 45% Boon duration. I guess we do have some decent amount, i just thought it would be neat for those that can’t go into Arcana for what ever reason.

No one would ever use this, still. Why use this over cantrips, frost bow, arcane stuff?

Yeah, I wish they would make it defensive as well. In its current state it’s just plain counter intuitive.

I would think this to be a more appropriate version.

Glyph of Elemental Power

45 sec cooldown (untraited)

Auras last 6 seconds.
Stunbreaker.

Fire: Pyroclastic Aura (new): Burns and dazes foes – 2 secs (melee attackers only).
Air: Shocking Aura
Water: Frost Aura
Earth: Magnetic Aura

I would use GoEH, GoEP and GoE at least, most likely picking Quick Glyphs and just perhaps Incription.. but only if it had means of condition removal. Hmm, gave me an idea.

Like how you can use the Water grandmaster trait with Inscription to have Glyph of Elemental Harmony remove 2 conditions when attuned to water?

This would be a UTILITY and not a heal, i knew i knew that name from somewhere and totally forgot that it was a name of a heal. So yeah the heal would stay the same. This would then be given a different name but have same affects and be a UTILITY and not a replacement Heal or anything.

Cleansing Water only removes one condition every 5 secs. Even if it removed two, it would be far from enough to survive in PvP.

Yet that only applies to sPvP, and from what I’ve been hearing, Anet is planning on removing it. Now imagine swapping to water, and the casting your heal, and it’s suddenly 3 conditions…that’s the same as Ether Renewal does.
