Guild Wars 2

New Arcing Slice:
Arcing Slice: Interrupts an action. If you have more than 4 boons, the interrupted skill is disabled for an additional 2…10 seconds and this attack deals less 50% damage. If less than 4 boons this attack doesnt interrupt but deals 50% increased damage.
(Numbers are up to balance, just put them there to provide an example of adrenaline scale)
Besides providing different skill usage according to the situation that you control, it sinergizes with confusion on interrupt traits aswell.

Would you be interested in seeing this replacement happening?

It’s interesting, an certainly better than the current.

This would be great for PvP, however in PvE I can’t see it being worth it. Interrupts are pretty bad with the current system.

The problem is that greatsword benefits so much more from maintaining your adrenaline, so therefore we need something that’s really worth giving it up. Axe has something worth it, because it does really really good damage and pulls you to the target.

Personally my solution to GS would be to grant quickness. I think this would work rather well with GS and possibly make it a tad more viable in PvE, making 100b easier to get off.

The 50% increased damage with less than 4 boons would certainly provide somewhat of a resemblance to axe burst skill, Eviscerate.

I think they want 100B to be chained with other skills rather than through the same weapon-set, which promotes playing only 1 weapon-set.
