Guild Wars 2

Shout: “F You Guys!”
Pulls conditions to nearby allies.

:) nice one. i just got excited for a nice 5 seconds

F you man. F you. -_-

You’re ready getting some practice in, I see. Way to be ahead of the curve!

Shout #2: “What’s yours is mine!”
Steals all boons from nearby allies.

I made a concept for necromancer just the other day in the pvp section:

Necromancer Elite: Joker
Jokers gain access to the Great sword. The Joker’s unique class mechanic is that it has a split auto attack functionality. You must press 1, then 2, then 3 for its auto attack. For example:
1. Slash. 2. Another Slash. 3.) Slash more, gain 2% life force.
In addition to the Great sword, necromancer also unlocks brand new shout abilities, with classics such as:
“Wait up!” which gives all enemies within 600 range a 5 second cripple!
“I’m Going into Death Shroud, Don’t heal yet!” which tells allies that you’re about to enter death shroud, so supporting you will be useless. This will play a major role in team fights.
And their elite shout:
“I GIVE!”, likely one of the most interesting abilties we’ve added to the game. This ability causes you to instantly enter downed stat triggering all “on downed” traits such as death nova and gives you access to your downed state “1” combo for additional damage. Think high risk, high reward!
I’m stoked.

I think I have a better Elite Shout Skill.

“I am NECROMANCER!”
Stage1, you put a 10sec Taunt on everyone(enemies+allies) to attack you, radius of 1500. While in stage1 you can active a new skill called “NECRO TIME!” which put you in down stage for 10sec and can not be rallied. While in this stage, your Life Leech is a AoE with radius of 1500 that affect both allies and enemies. When this skill ends you are going back to your normal down stage.

This forum post made me rofl

Shout #3: “See You in Hell!”
Causes death to downed allies within 1200 radius.

Imagine the possibility with this skill in PVE!

“Save myself!”

Steal boons from allies and gives all your conditions to all of them. Breaks stun, gives 1 hour swiftness to you. Your allies gain 1 hour duration of all conditions they get from this skill and they also get 1 hour duration of chill, immobilize, and cripple.

Grenths Crusty Finger

Stage 1: All boons become conditions.
Stage 2: All conditions explode for their full run time at once. All conditions converted on those who died become absorbed by the Necro.

I lol’d as soon as I saw the shout name xD this is perfect

I want both and more like that.

curse you guys…I laughed harder than I should xD

“Leeeeeeroy Jenkinsssss”

all enemies within 1200 radius immediately attack necro causing the necromancer to randomly shout expletives every second. For every expletive shouted a nearby ally is turned into a bone minion and detonated.

Noooo!

Don’t give them any more bad ideas.

Given how badly some of the traits & death shroud have been designed since launch they might just use them.

Then again, any good ideas are sure to be implemented in the revenant so whats the point.

If Necromancers get shouts (still don’t think they will), there better be “For Grave Justice!”

none.9681:

These aren’t shouts. Maybe I was onto something with Joker, these are puns.

Pun. “For Grave Justice!”

Pun. “On my…. ‘Mark’!”

And they could even have traits that cause Pun skills to cause aoe facepalm stuns.

I think… You haven’t gone deep enough in this yet… Kitten! it could be good…

New mechanism : Upon equiping the elite traitline, the necromancer life force take the form of a shadow linked to him attacking it’s master adjacent ennemies.

Shout :
Heal :
Gimme yer life! deplete all your LF to heal you

Utilities :
Catch’em! Your shadow extend, catching up to your foe. Foes that are touched by the shadow are chilled and bleeded. (LF cost)
Bring me the darkness! Your shadow expand around you on a black sphere that absorb any projectile and blind adjacent foes. (LF Cost)
Feast! Your shadow whirl around you, feasting on allies conditions. (LF cost per condition)
Bury them! Your shadow extend around you preventing downed ennemy to be helped by their allies. (LF cost)

Elite :
Brace me You are Engulfed into your shadow, taking damage in your place. (Upkeep skill)

I have a really cool idea for a necro shout

“Fear Me!”

Induce fear in your foes.

This would fit necro so good! But seriously I found this thread way funnier than I should have.

You mean like the warrior shout.. fear me? xD

Want a new high risk high reward?
Here you go:

Shout: “Rest In Peace!”
Steals all heal from any down allies for yourself causing them to die. Enemies can not be rallied off of those affected allied due to the fact you are sacrificing your own allies or in short KSing.

Shout: “What’s yours is Mine!”
Rip 10 random boons form surrounding allies.

Suffer like me!

all you allies and enemies’ health is turned to lifeforce and they go into ds. The moment they leave ds, be it because they chose to do so, or because their lf depletes, they get downed. Their damage in downed state gets a +50% modifier, so everybody becomes a downed troll.

Elite Shout:
Grenths Call
Execute up to 3 downed enemys with less then 50% health instantly, you gain double the normal “on death” lifeforce + 5 stacks might for every enemy executed this way.

Having a skill for outright executing enemies would be so necro.

Unfortunatly, it wouldn’t work so well in PvE at it’s fundamental level.

“I’m Useful!”
Applies 1s of Might (1s) to one nearby ally.

C’mon, Bhawb. What happened to you? You used to talk with logic and cared about balance. Devs will never listen to us if all we do is spout out OP bs.

haha, love this thread. i loled hard. the first is still the best but kudos to the other attempts too.

off topic: at this rate of Necro balance, the Necro elite spec would need to be Liadri level to balance the serious “meh” with the base trait lines

Necros are getting glyphs. I know because I am an anet employee.

I’ve been curious on ways to give glyphs to other classes, but I can’t think of any other class that has multiple “forms” that would cause a glyph to change its use. Pretty sure the only thing that makes a glyph unique is that it changes its ability based on attunements. :/

They will be glyphs that change what they do based on your current health. at 50% health they will change into defensive utilities. Above that they are offensive. I know because I am an anet employee.
