This would work best in PvP.

When you have an enemy targeted, you pop the elite skill. What happens is: You and 3 clones appear around the person at 600 range. You take up positions in 4 corners around the enemy. You would be in one of these positions and it would be up to the enemy to figure out which one you are.

North South East and West would be where your clones are and the enemy is in the center.

Lol what would be the point? Its just clone spam. A boring clone spam at that. I’d prefer an elite that does more than what I can do in 2 seconds by dodging.

Bah. What everybody seems to really want is an elite that grants 90 seconds of swiftness every 90 seconds.

You’re onto something there. Although Quaggan are quite adorable, so we do run the risk of inflicting a 10 second squeee on ourselves. /coocuddle

I would LOVE a transformation elite. I love both the Lich and Tornado, even Rampage can be alot of fun. So a nice big purple Phantasm elite that turns us into a different Phantasm based on what weapon you are holding

Transform into a big purple butterfly moving at superspeed (the engi one) and able to levitate over obstacles.

1 – stealth for 3s
2 – blink
3 – portal

No damage skills, but we would be the best escaping class ever :>

Like the butterfly idea, hate the skills. We have no damaging Elites, i guess you could count Time Warp but that isnt the skill itself but the skills you use while inside.

Would like to see a more attack orientated elite.

One of the skills should be to summon a swarm of purple butterflies that when they are killed by damage inflict Mind Wrack damage, Cry Of frustration Confusion and Diversion daze. Have the second part of the skill to instantly blow them all up and thus inflict EVERYTHING multiple times.

Downside: This skill can ONLY be used once during the transformation as it will have a cool down that is say 5-10 seconds longer then the duration of the transformation

How about this one:

Signet of Bla:
Passive Effect: Illusions inflict ~+80 (depending on Level) Damage. Affects Clones, too.
Aktive Effect: Get swiftness (and remove X Conditions).

All we really need is AoE Moa Morph…

Would be good for WvW/PvP only (like Moa is atm) just overpowered.
To get the moa skill into PvE: Make it work on Legends for 10s and increase the duration for champions/elites/veterans to 10s.

A elite skill I’d suggest would be a skill like this:

Signet version:
Cast time: 1 1/2
Recharge: 150s
Range: 1200
Summons 3 random Phantasms choosen by all of the phantasms a mesmer can spawn

  • iZerker
  • iDuelist
  • iDefender
  • iWarden
  • iDisenchanter
  • iMage
  • iWarlock
  • iSwordman

A post of mine from another thread:

Signet of Illusions:
Passive: 100% Increase to Illusion health
Active: Next Illusion you cast will summon 3 of that illusion instead of one, all active illusions are destroyed (on death traits still proc)

Signet of Shattering:
Passive: Decrease Shatter cool down by 25% (seems reasonable)
Active: Instantly recharge all shatters

These of course would be just normal signets

Just an idea, running on the same prospect of chaos armor. Not sure what to call it.
Xxxx : for the next 10 seconds every time you take damage a fast moving clone spawns( like sword from ileap) travels to source and shatters. 90 sec cooldown 1 second ICD.

Infiltration:
Cast: 3s
Effect:cloaked while casting, transform into a random enemy looking character for 5 seconds

Complete with enemy skills, weapons, Traits and utilities
Make it last 20 seconds, 180second cool down.

That or maybe make us a stronger version of the next Phantasm we use?

For example use Duelist and we would become a bigger, stronger (stat wise) version of one complete with unique skill set.

Don’t you think your Signet of Illusions would be overpowered for normal skill? zerkerequipment+iDuelist/iZerker/iSwordman → up to 15k aoe dmg or 18k/20k single target? in PvP/WvW totally op(even for an elitespell). in pve ok.

Another one (similar to the skill by the risen prister of lyssa in arah):
Elite Phantasm “Copy”
Range: 1200

Summons a Phantasm that looks like your opponent and is able to use all of his weapon skills (with your power of course)

Easily killed and with a big enough cool down, thinking 90seconds that cant be reduced by traits or anything would be solid i think.

Also – You can dodge, Vigor, Immune defend yourself against it. They can be dodged and not summon so why not?

Maybe have it so that EVERY class gets that super powerful Utility (such as this) BUT it comes with a Negative. In this case for 90seconds after the cast and the 3 illusions have died that all future Illusions will have say a 50% health DECREASE

These would be ones that when used right will win you fights, but if you fail to kill them or it misses the negative effects you have give you a disadvantage.

Not quite sure what some could be for other classes though.

ALL these skills would be easily visible and have maybe 1-2 second cast

OR:

Signet of Illusions:
Passive: 100% Increase to Illusion health
Active: Next Illusion you cast will summon 3 of that illusion instead of one, all active illusions are destroyed (on death traits still proc). Illusions deal 50% of normal damage

An easier fix? So it would basically do 150% of the normal Illusion damage.

I also though about having skills that have advantages AND disadvantages but it’s not the style of guild wars 2. You do not have skills like calculated risk (the only ones i know are draining your mobility (so also your survivalability) for high dmg like 100b).
