Cant believe you are saying this. PD is the most overrated skill ever. The 8 second recharge on ur skills is just plain retarded. Try playing with PB, its so much more effective, you can shutdown 2 targets 60-90%, while with PD you can shutdown 1 target for 90%...

try to interrupt a ghostly on king of the hill + song of concentration with a powerblock bar for 30+ seconds

powerblock might be better in 1v1 situation but the necessarity to have as many hard interrupts as possible makes pd the superior skill in HA.

I'm not going to give my top 10, simply because it personal view. If you want to have actual statistics, you'dd have to ask Anet, because there is so many skills that get (ab-)used in HA.

1. Arcane Echo:

Good skill, but only used in Sway's and Fire Eles. Arcana Echo is the PERFECT indicator for an overpowered spell. If a spell is so broken, it alone can get U a win (Splinter weapon, Warmongers, SH, ...), 2 of them is simply WAAAY better.
Thus it would be safe to say, by definition, that ANY skill that requently gets used together with Arcane Echo is overpowered.

2. PD IS better then PB:

PB is for bad mesmers. It's pretty much the WardAMelee under the Mesmers. Interrupt something, forget about him and camp another target.
The power of PD is the fact that the skill can interrupt anything at, however, a major cost.
PD is probably in my top 10 for most balanced out skills. You have the powerfull effect (ANY skill; 12-15 disable) with an insane draw-back. It's the "Frenzy" under Mesmers...
PB might get U the win in a 1v1 match, but in 3-way (And ghostly's Claim Resource) PD simply outclasses PB in so many ways...

3. Once again, there is no point in making a top 10, because 7 off those skills will definatly be located within the button-bash range of HA gimmicks.
-Escape, Pious Assauly, Wounding Strike, Eremites, ...
If you wanna "forget" about sway for a second, you might aswell "forget" about Paragons, Fire Eles, Wounding Strike, Rspikers, Ritspikers, A/D spikers, hexwayers, ... AND THEN, you will have the overview of "balanced" skills in HA. (Frenzy and PD are probably the only 2 non-monk skills that don't get abused)

4. I can most definatly give U the number 1 skill used in HA. With about 99.5% "sureness":

[resurrection signet]

I have played with PB ty and while yes it has effective shutdown its not as useful or as widely used (which is actually the nature of this thread lrn2readpls) in HA as PD, if your trying to shutdown with just PD you are bad, it shouldnt be used to spam on a target you should be using the rest of your bar to shutdown like a good mesmer and just be using PD carefully for much needed interupts like snares, res sigs, DPS, ghosts, traps, spirits etc.

Thats my point.. use the rest of your bar. Why Bring PD if u hardly use it..

And for altar capping, cmon you dont need PD to winn.

ATM for my team in HA as i play mesmer im using this bar:
(srry dont know how to make icons)

Power Block
Cry of Frustration
Power Drain
Leech Signet
Diversion
Rend Enchant
Gaze of Contempt
Ress Sig.

Run it once, ull notice PD is overrated and not that great at all.
