Basilisk Venom can be ranged, has 2 chances, once applied is instant, can be done from stealth and can be traited.

I demand a nerf of Basilisk Venom, or that every class get a stun as good as Jade Winds, regardless of the peculiarities of that class.

Why shouldn’t Elementalist get Jade Winds too?

Backbreaker is not an elite skill. It is a subset of hammer. For Elite skills warriors have Rampage , Signet of Rage and Battle Standard.

Rampage just as example.

on the AA

Has a skill that puts on 5 stacks of vuln and does damage
Has a skill that cripples along with damage
Has as part of the AA attack chain a 1/2 daze

it then has a knockback on the #2
it then has a 1000 range leap which acts as a finisher (#3)
it then has a 2 second stun (#4) hey same as basilisks as a subskill!
It then has another leap that is a blast finisher and causes knockdown. (#5)

I do not know why the heck you are referencing a skill specific to hammer to an Elite utility skill.

The OP is just trolling… I wouldn’t mind that assassin mode from another post with unbearable stealth for 8s, auto porting backstab, etc…

It’s comparable to rampage…

Just another noob thief…

What have I done? I am so sorry forum community!

Simplicity is complex.

Good feedback is key to getting the developers to listen to you.

A three second stun will end almost any fight right there.

And before you complain about us Warriors, remember a hammer can be dodged. Mesmers have a three second stun signet.
