Guild Wars 2

It’s missing something to be useful. My suggestion would be a 25% CD reduction for banners. That would make the elite banner’s CD 180s (the same as Rampage) and the Utility ones 90s which is the same as their duration meaning they would have a 100% uptime if you used them properly. I don’t think that’s too much of a problem considering regen and a few stat points aren’t that big a help in the grand scheme of things. What do you think? What would you like to see added to make it a viable trait?

How about making it pulse out adrenaline, so when you’re in radius of the banner, it gives you say 5 adrenaline every 3/5 seconds, i can’t really think of much else to add.

The problem here is that adrenaline only helps you and any other warriors on your team. Banners are a group support skill, any buff to them ought to improve that group support- like adding another boon or improving the skill’s radius or uptime.

Yeah, it might be worth taking if they brought back the cooldown reduction. The regen is almost totally worthless. They could all use the recharge reduction, but especially the elite banner.

The cd reduction would be nice and change it so each banner pulses an appropriate boon for each banner instead of regen for all. Such as;

Banner of Strength pulses Might
Banner of Discipline pulses Fury
Banner of Defense pulses Protection
Banner of Tactcs pulses Regen
Battle Sandard pulses Vigor
