I know there’s history to the madness, but I’m just pointing it out how it is.

[“Feel my Wrath”] gives fury and quickness. It’s in the healing trait line.

[Signet of Courage] is a passive pulse heal and massive full heal. It’s in the condi/crit trait line.

[Renewed Focus] refreshes all the virtues. It’s NOT in the virtue trait line.

Now while not a skill I do still wish to mention [Writ of Persistence]; the trait that gives symbols a larger radius and duration and gives minuscule healing per pulse… the same symbol trait that is NOT in the SYMBOL trait line ‘Zeal’.

Renewed Focus is a skill, so it probably shouldn’t be in the Virtues trait line

What if they changed “Feel my Wrath”] to [signet of wrath] that makes atacks make target on fire to(while mataining the initial FmW skill )?

It will be nice elite to use with scepter builds.

And

[Signet of Courage] change to [Healer’s Boon] shout skill

Active Heal: 100% and 2 seconds of resistence? (maint 180sec CD)
Skill cooldown: 150sec? 180is fine to.
Cast time reduced from 4 to 2.50.
Passive Heal: 850 (0.5)?
Number of Targets: 5
Healing Interval: 8sec (6secons with traited shouts)
Passive Radius: 300 (or same as sanctuary)
Active Radius: 1,200

This would make the skill also possibel to use with “force of will”.

RF, looks fine it is a meditation skill now, when Gw2 lauched wanst a medi skill, it is already improved by meditations.

1st April joke, when gw2 receives a “balance” update.

I totally forgot Signet of Courage exists. Does anyone actually use that?

i tryed to used for quite some time, even saved a few times the group with the signet cast, but it is burden to loose RF and virtue reset, easilly interrupted, stability gets overwhemledf before u can cast the skill most of the times…

A guadian that uses it ends being a dead guardian lol..meybe for just RP guardians in pve….liek the SW are… just for RP guardians…

You could make a Radiance/Honor/Virtues Magi build with the Signet (because the Signet trait significantly affects the hps). It puts out pretty decent healing, but it would be much, much better if it could proc every second rather than every 10.

The Elites don’t need crazy and unnecessary tinkering, is Signed that need to have a niche. The Light Aura/Retaliation schtick is stepping on other traits’ toes.

Not only the Signets, but the Spirit Weapons also have a mix of support (bow and shield) and offense (sword and hammer). Really doesn’t make sense to get Zeal line as support build just to reduce the cooldown of shield or bow spirit weapons. Yet, the spirit weapons are rather useless, they die too easy, have too much cast time (1.5s) and their effects doesn’t do much. The problem is simillar to Signets (doesn’t do much).

Also, doesn’t make much sense to the signets trait be in Radiance that is crit/cond oriented line. They also tried to make Radiance a Retalliation line, but this boon is too weak and their traits does not accomplish much or even nothing to make this boon more viable.

Sorry for my english.

I dare say that tomes shouldn’t have ever been deleted, and instead just had been buffed.

Tomes can evolve into something better now with Elite Specs.
FmW is a perfect change. Signet of courage is alright, but has a lot going against it.

They just need to either rework retaliation or scrap it our of most of our trait lines. It serves no use even in pvp it doesnt do anything. The only time ive seen it do something was when your lvling from 1-80. Retaliation is a good concept but useless the way it is now
