Guild Wars 2

I know reapers are getting an aoe freeze, but I have always wished Necros had an active self freeze(svanir rune 6). A weak form of invulnerability that stays with our fun no mobility theme -.-

Something like this?

Ice Casket- become a block of ice for 3 seconds. When it breaks, damage nearby foes and chill them for 2 seconds(frost burst). Instant cast/17sec cd

What do you guys think?

Really like the idea but I would name it coffin instead of casket. Last thing to do: how to implement it? I guess you mean it should be a new utility skill, but what type…

But thinking about it: really nice idea for a future elite spec

Just curious are you EU?

Yeah probably a utility. Getting another weapon or overhauling a current skill is not gonna happen for a long time, if ever.

Yes, I am. You got me. So “coffin” is the wrong word for what I have in my mind? ^^

Sad thing that the Reaper elite spec is designed already, because this skill would fit the whole chill concept really well. And an AoE damaging invuln spell would just be great for a melee elite spec….

It’s a good idea that’s also thematic, therefore, it will never happen.

No coffin is better, I just know that casket is used more in NA.

Yeah would be cool. “Chilled to the bone!” seems okay, but easily countered with the 2 ct. I want to have reliable abilities that I can cast intelligently.

I would put more “omph” on the AoE chill when breaking out. Maybe a 10 second chill. After all, it is a self stun. It could also be a corruption skill that applies self chill when traited. A self chill would actually be a pretty sweet transfer because it would really help reapers with keeping perma chill going.

The thing is, “Chilled to the bone” just became heavily outclassed by Jade Winds. 3 Second AE stun with 0 cooldown (yes it costs ressource, but kittening hell I’d rather the Necro had a second ressource/used lifeforce for utilities and have 0 CD on them than having these shouts with ther kittentier damage, meh effects and lengthy cooldowns…)
