Guild Wars 2

Making it the 4th skill with 20sec CD and 3 to 5sec of Revealed. It should has 0 cast time and PBAoE. Technically, you can only use it once.

The reason is I think Plague is an utility skill but sometime it has so many flaw to fully utilize it with that long CD.
For example, you can not stomp while is Plague form but you can actually use it to stomp with trick but only once per use. The only best way to prevent Plague Stomp is to somehow runaway from it or Stealth. Once they are Stealth your Plague is garbage.
So do you think it would be fair to add Revealed to Plague?

I could even go as far as to add a 5th skill with teleport ability but that would be too much to ask.

Eh. I’m not sure it’s totally thematic. But you could argue it I guess.

Personally, I’d rather see it on “Nothing Can Save You!” Yes, it’s Reaper only, but imo, its a much better place to put it.

should add confusion and/or weaken to plague for thematicness

Plague is pretty nice as it is. Also, granting reveal to us would basically be a direct nerf to thieves, that’s not fair to them. Plus there’s already more than enough sources of reveal being thrown around lately.

It makes no sense to add Revealed, considering their first attack out of stealth will already miss, which at least for Thieves is already a huge weakness since those attacks tend to be really important. Plague already shuts down pretty much all offense within its radius, no need to make it shut down defense too.

I don’t think this is a Stealth counter because Plague has a 180sec CD and there is no way someone going to use such a long CD skill to counter some random Stealth. My suggestion is about someone using Stealth to counter you.

Stealth doesn’t remotely counter Plague though, it doesn’t affect anything you are doing, since you use Plague to stop their offense, and if they are sitting in stealth, they stopped their own offense.

It continues here as well.

thieves had the same reaction to sick em, utility goggles, lock on….but after they got implemented the complaints and whining stopped.

Plague is probably the skill that need such thing the least.

Plague doesn’t need it. Reveal wouldn’t affect how you use it anyway.

Your target is visible? You’re pulsing blind and poison.

Your target is stealthed? You’re pulsing blind and poison.

Your target is revealed? You’re pulsing blind and poison.
