Guild Wars 2

I was thinking about new ideas to the game and one of them ended up being, in my opinion at least, a good one. Would like to know what you guys think about it:

New condition: Drain / Energy Drain / Soul Drain
Effect: Each stack reduces the maximum health of the person affected by a small percent, like 0.2-0.5%.

Certain necro spells and abilities would apply this condition on it`s target on a limit of 1 stack per second so multiple necros wouldn`t be able to reduce someone`s health to almost nothing in no time.

The idea is that prolongued fights against necros would slowly reduce the person`s will and capacity to fight as the dark forces employed by the necro drains their target from their very soul.

Could be interesting, don`t you think?

The could bring back disease condition from GW1

Condition. While suffering from this ailment, you lose Health over time. Disease is contagious between creatures of the same kind.

Back in guild Wars 1 it was necro specific

The idea here is that the condition itself doesnt do any damage, but reduces the maximul health anyone afflicted by it can have…

Say, a warrior with 25k hp gets afflicted by 10 stacks of this condition. Assuming each stack applies a 0.5% reduction, we would have a warrior with 5% less hp pool, bringing him to 23750 hps maximum, until the condition is cleansed or expires.

One which I would love and would fit necro so much is one which prevents condition cleanse for a few seconds. A bit like an opposite of resistance. It should be rare, but could be very useful.
