Guild Wars 2

I dunno, this idea just popped in my head.

I know that when grounded the idea is that you are suppose to be much more vulnerable than standing, but I just can’t stand the necro’s downed moves, namely 2, the fear one. If it were an Aoe that would be a little better, but still, one second isn’t enough.

Since most other classes have a mobile alternative, (sans warrior who must sacrifice himself to rally) an idea popped in my head to replace the useless fear 2 downed skill with something mobile AND stays true to the necro.

Feign Death — The necromancer digs underground while leaving a fake necromancer in its place which dies the moment this skill is casted, making it seem like the necromancer himself has died. The necro can either move underground freely for 2-3 seconds, or like the mesmer he is instantly teleported away from the fake corpse.

Downed fear base duration is 2 seconds, actually, but it also has the longest cast time of any downed skill (not counting channels).

Ah, thank you for correcting me, as well as adding to the fact that it is more a burden than a help.
