Post what you think are the top 3 skills in the game and why.
Back in the day I would have said that their are no "top skills" which has some truth to it, but their are a few skills that just always seem to find its way into the meta or at least stay usefull no matter what and I think they deserve credit, so lets list em.
Here is what I think: ( no particular order )
1. ) [skill]reversal of fortune[/skill]
-just pure win. This skill is not only fast and quickly recharged for what you get, but it can also be used as a buffer for casting more powerful straight heals during a minor spike. Most good monks know how Rof can allow targets to be kept alive just long enough to get a full heal, and thats why it deserves top 3 imo.
2. ) [skill]Distracting shot[/skill]
-Good use of this skill can destroy a team almost irregardless of what they run. Compared to most other interrupts only magebane is better, which is elite. Its also one of the few skills that work just as good at 0 ap as 16 ap.
3. ) [skill]Siphon Speed[/skill]
-Poor underrated siphon speed. People tend to overlook this skill since it belongs to a one-dimensional class without realizing that what you get for its cost is the easiest snare and speed buff in the game useable with very few ap's. Im somewhat glad more X/A's dont use this since it would get narfed if it was.

In no order.
[skill]Distracting Shot[/skill][skill]Bull's Strike[/skill][skill]Gale[/skill]
Amazing skills tbh. I don't think I need to state why they're good skills.
Also, siphon speed is far from underrated.

I'd say its more underrated in terms of its usefullness for other classes. It can be a good kiting skill on a monk. Its extremely underrated on trappers, and a good skill for dervish to stop kiters as well.

Top 3 skills?
Hm...
[skill]Mind Burn[/skill]
[skill]Mind Freeze[/skill]
[skill]Mind Shock[/skill]
Mwa-ha-ha-ha-haw!
Actually, I would never favor a single skill. All of them can have their 15 minutes of glory, sooner or later.
