Guild Wars 2

Killing Blow – Physical skill, cooldown 40 seconds.

Usable in melee range, if the target is below 15% health. Deals X damage.

If foe is downed by this ability, Killing Blow cooldown is reduced by 20 seconds, and the foe’s downed health is reduced by 50%.

So let me get this straight.. It’s an elite that that only works when your foe is at 15% health and if you down them then it has a shorter cd and reduces their downstate hp? I can do this just fine with intelligence sigil and doom sigil poison reduces their revive amount. No offense but this is useless and to be honest the elite has to be on par or better than the current signet of salt. The banner at least brings it’s own feature by reviving people. Oh and the fact that is clearly is a pvp only elite. Elites need to be possibly useful anywhere.

having half hp when downed is huge at high level pvp. i guess you wouldn’t know until you get there

Year because 90% of all cases you get safestomped and there it is very important you have 50% less hp in downstate

Ahahaha right you keep thinking that. I can tell you right now this isn’t nearly as useful as our current signet of salt or even banner for that matter. This elite is about as useful as Kick.

Try playing them. Players still get finished just fine.

Just checked the leaderboard on tpvp and solo q spvp: didnt see you in the top 100…200…300…400…or top 500… what is this high lvl pvp you play that we sir are apparently not aware of? Please let us know so that we may “get there” and get on your lvl. LoL.

I will prefer bringing back the GW elite skill – Head butt

Medium single target damage – Physical skill

3/4 sec activation time

90 sec CD

2s stun

2s self daze if being blocked

That sounds absolutely terrible. Why would I ever take that skill in GW2? Not only is it a garbage stun on a ridiculously long cooldown, it can even backfire and screw you over.

The OPs idea isn’t much better. Even as a weapon skill or a utility skill it doesn’t seem to be that great of an idea, certainly not as an elite. An execute that reduces downed HP? why would I want that over a regular high-damage ability?
Maybe if it automatically downed them if they are under 15% hp, I could see it being useful for tank builds that don’t do much damage. But that’d be quiet the cheese skill, could have stupid snow-balling moments, and be fairly uninteresting gameplay-wise.
A skill that deals bonus damage to low health targets is cool, but such skills are already in game. Reducing downed HP is useful, it gives you a longer period of time to stomp someone before their allies can get them up, but poison fill that role already. If you want more option to do so, I don’t think a skill like this would be the way to do it.

I would take that skill as it is a stun skill that not bound to any of the weapon (not mace not hammer), it is affected by physical trait for 20% CD reduction, and 100% more damage. So it could be a high damage burst along with 2 sec stun, also if traited with unsuspected foe follow up with a final thrust will be a deadly burst in pvp.

Therefore it could be a very good elite skill that using dual sword / greatsword and longbow build 6/4/4/0/0 or 4/6/4/0/0

Lol I think his point is his elite idea is so garbage, so was gw1’s idea of headbutt for an elite skill. Aka you kinda trolled yourself on that one.

How about the " I win" elite..Give them 30 sec of stability while hitting 1111111 does 3 – 5k dmg each hit…Oh wait ?

How about a shout elite: reveal stealth target 20s, all stats and swiftness increase 10% within this period.

SaintSnow.6593:

This elite is about as useful as Kick.

Kick is a pretty decent skill. It’s multipurpose since it’s a knock back(interrupt, create distance, stop a finish, knock people over the edge). It has the shortest cooldown of all the warrior CC utility skills. It can cleave up to three targets.

What exactly is bad about that? .. or do you mean this elite concept is that good?

How about

Use all 3 of your utilities at once, does not share cooldown with the actual utility insert cooldown timer here

Because we need more stance warriors?
