This is old news but could these skills get a buff?

On my mark is like the dumbed down version of an engineer’s utility goggle analyze (shorter cooldown + revealed) and hardly any warriors run this on the utility bar. Suggestion: increase vulnerability stacks, or duration, or add a secondary inflicted condition or effect like revealed.

The only benefit and advantage of Fear Me over stomp is being unblockable and has a longer range, but both skills serve a similar purpose. Fear me has niche uses but it would be nice to differentiate the utility skills to serve different purposes. Suggestion: Change fear me into a taunt or something along with some protection… sometimes I wish I had a skill to draw aggro away from squishier allies. (inb4 holy trinity, druids happened)

Revealed is totally worthless against most classes whereas burning hurts everyone. Maybe increase duration instead since necros can transfer conditions.

I’m surprised war still doesn’t have access to some taunts. We will get one with berserker GM trait but that’s about it.

Someone plz gib taunt.

Some thoughts:

Keeping in line with the theme, On My Mark should add a boon that synergizes with a group call-out. Namely, Quickness. Even 1 or 2 seconds could be very useful, especially since world fights are way too easy to get 25 vulnerability on.

Fear Me ought to have something for after the fear is done. Weakness, probably. It’s an anti-pressure skill for when a warrior gets in too deep.

Meanwhile, yes please on taunts. It’s the most fitting for a warrior or guardian, so there should be something.

wipe 10s off the fear me CD. an unblockable AOE fear than you can trait to shoutheal is. gold. all it needs is a shorter CD.

Fear Me should fear and Taunt and then the enemy should bug out due to not knowing wtf to do and fly upwards and then take enough falling dmg on the way back down to cause death. This would make fall dmg traits viable in competitive pvp;

Clearly, “Fear me!” should have its fear changed to a taunt, and be renamed to “Come at me, bros!”

lmao

Lol, +1s for both Zefrost and Captain Unusual.

I think “Fear me!” could also inflict cripple besides Fear…

+1. We need an elite shout too.

maybe make it into a skill chain
“Come at me bro” (taunt) → “Nevermind, stop go away!” (fear)

Fear Me! could also apply a few stacks of Torment. That would synergy nicely, and would help protect the Fear from condi cleanses.

On My Mark! should reward allies for attacking the warrior’s target, so what if allies could ignore and cleanse the Blind condition when attacking that target for a few seconds?

Make fear me unblindable, on my mark could give superspeed for 2 sec to nearby allyes.

Pls inplement coward(gw1 skill http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/%22Coward!%22) as elite shout.

Perhaps on my mark could remove defensive boons like protection and aegis or drain the target’s endurance.

No cripple.
Give them suoerspeed so they run far far

Ooh, I like that one.

Make Fear Me strip all stability instead of being unblockable and reduce the cd to 45 seconds. When the new meta comes with HoT there will be so much stability flying around. I really feel like we need a boonstrip.

That’s a good idea. Striping stability would be very effective. Warriors can rush into a group of enemies that has stability up and use Fear Me to fear them and strip their stability. That would be the counter to Guardian’s Stand your ground.
