Guild Wars 2

Which would you be more likely to take in your build:

Rebound as it is now

or

An elite cantrip skill 60 second cooldown, 1/2 second cast time, that does literally absolutely nothing aside from proccing cantrip traits and rune set bonuses.

For me the choice would be saddeningly obvious.

i would take rebound if the effect was no cooldown on the next weaponskill, similar to engi’s toolbelt gm trait. even if it was for the ele only.

Nado is the elite cantrip your not going to get another one.

So that more of the chose would you take a 60 sec cd shout that supports your pt only some what or a nado cantrip that on a 150 cd (120 if you build for it) that takes a 1 sec cast time and can last but locks you up of every thing but the nado skills for 15 sec.

Ele gets bad elites but all of its wepon skills and utilitys are much stronger then most. Ele not about one skill changing game its about all of its skills being game changers.

^Precisely what I was thinking about rebound when it was revealed (and every second since).
Rather have a functionless cantrip with a somewhat reasonable cooldown, whose only purpose it is to be a cantrip. Call it ELE_CANTRIP_TEMPLATE#006 for all I care, no animation needed, tooltip could read ‘description goes here’.
