Guild Wars 2

I never use this skill. It’s just a lesser version of what other classes like the necro get. Why slap myself with a 240 cd utility that will have me end up rezzing said people shortly after it is used, when I could just rez them at the time either by rally or some other more reliable method like knockback/stealth?

It should revive, just like the necro skill.

If I’m not mistaken, Illusion of Life can revive up to 5 people while Signet of Undeath can only revive 3. It also has a 130 second cool down, not 240. That’s 50 seconds less than Signet of Undeath.

However, I do agree this is not a fair trade-off. 50 fewer seconds on a skill that is rarely used and the ability to revive two more people in the tiny AoE is hardly fair considering one is absolute revival while the other is conditional. To be honest, I’ve never had the opportunity to revive more than three people with Illusion of Life and if five people were downed within the same area I would question whether they’re worth reviving in the first place.
