I was at work thinking about what elite would be fun to be converted into gw2, I came up with some interesting ideas.

Id like to know what everyone else wants/thinks!

Keep in mind that the skill has to be “converted” to gw2 so that the rules that would normally apply to it would instead apply to it as if it were in gw2. For example, a skill that would restore mana would instead restore another resource instead.

My personal favorite so far? Spiteful Spirit. It could apply many stacks of confusion (or flat damage) each time they attack or use a skill. Applies to all foes in an area.

Grenth’s Balance: A fast life siphon-style skill (2s channel duration) that won’t stop until you and your enemy have the same % of life remaining. If successfully used (Not blocked, missed due to blind, etc) on an opponent with less life than you, no effect & a five second recharge.

Mixing insults with your post is like pooping in a salad.
It’s pretty obvious, and nobody’s impressed.

It should give all party members life steal for 10 seconds and not the pathetic low lifesteal necro blood magic has.

definitely

Arguably one of the best skills in the game, and it made for some really fun necro builds.

Oh how I miss hexes.

Spiteful spirit over everything all: is like confusion but in aoe radio.
I played necro/Mesmer : echo SS, spinal shiver, rigor Mortis and siphon life build from prophecies to EOTN. ALL campaing and no a single skill change.

I quit gw1 after anet overnerfed searing flame. One of the wors thing anet have made for me, no even the live story was so lament mistake.

We just don’t want players to grind in Guild Wars 2. No one enjoys that.

Make it an aura, remove the self damage, and obviously tune duration, uptime, CD, etc.

My favourite skill in the game! But in GW2 terms it really is simply aoe confusion. I think Soul Bind would be more interesting in this game.
Also possibly Tainted Flesh

A bad necromancer always blames the corpse.

I’m for this. Though there might need to be more changes, or it wouldn’t be an elite. I actually really wanted to use this elite in GW1, the problem with it was that melee combat wasn’t an option for necromancer as it was. In GW2 it could be a real option if implemented right.

My favorite skill from GW1 was actually a mesmer skill, however my second was Virulence. A rather underrated skill, and it would b hard to put into GW2 without some changes.

Power Block (not sure how to implement it in GW2 though).

The skill was ridiculously OP if used properly and it was quite hilarious to see your enemies raging about it every single time you interrupt them. Good old times.

P.S. I would love to see all the interrupt skills combined with a cast bar in GW2. That would be the best addition to the game since release imo. Seriously, I never had as much fun in any game as I had with those interrupt builds.

Toxic Chill. I would like a damage spike with condition elite on a small cooldown of 40-90s depending on the damage done.
