With all the talk of skills that suck, or should be nerfed, or whatever else - let's have a fun skill related thread. What (funny) skills would you like to see created?

Here's a few to get started:

Glyph of STFU. When cast, will keep target player's text from being displayed in any channel or in their speech bubble.

Signet of Summon Monk: Will bind a random monk in the same area to your team. Said monk cannot leave until the party's return to a town.

(Before flaming me - these are for humor value only!!)

So what do you all have?

Signet of Wisdom(Only works in 4v4 randomm arena): When cast on an ally that does not have a rez signet it disables mending and replaces it with rez signet.

Concentual Putrid Explosion - Requires concensus of all party members except ally target - target ally will explode when in range of > 4 - 1 enemy or if idle for > 30 secs, dealing 31 - 101 damage to surrounding enemies and being transported to the departing town. Death Magic skill.

Barbed Lasoo: warriors on team experience -1 health gen for every 10 feet they stray away from monk.

Babel fish, translates your instructions into a language understandable by all team members. For example, typing, "Please don't take the quest yet" becomes, "OnLY Nubs t4ke quest0rs!1!" and draws a large phallus on the mini-map.

Signet of trade - for the next lifetime you must only sell or buy things in the trade channal, every time target foe fails to do this they lose connection and cannot log on for X hours

Glory of the Necromancer - For the next X missions you must take a necromancer, if your team fails to do this you will all spontaneously combust and fail the mission right near the end

Time of the Mesmer - For the next X missions you must take a mesmer, if your team fails to do this you will all spontaneously combust and fail the mission right near the end

Dark sky - For the next X missions you must take only one monk, if your team fails to do this both monks will be droped from the game and your team royaly screwed

Signet of the tank - The next time someone runs into an group of enemys your whole team is granted invincibility and pop corn for the next X seconds so you can watch them say "Omg heal me" and you can chuckle

I think these work out quite nicely

"Godly Smite" - when activated, all traders in LA who use the word "Godly", "1337" etc. in their pitch, and any traders using the public chat channel lose whatever item they are trying to sell, as well as 50% of their platinum, and all contents of their storage.

"Guardian Angel" - A protective aura is cast on the player that lasts from between their transgression over to post-sear right up to their journey up to Sanctum Cay. During this time, the player has a good knowledge of how to play the game, does not fall for blatant scams, and is unable to perform or show any n00bish traits.

"Telekinisis" - For 10 seconds, player is able to delve into another player's inventory and storage and take whatever they like without other player noticing - Only works if other player has a HP of 105.

Damon Windwalker · Aug 18, 2005, 06:44 PM // 18:44

Nicely done!!! Keep 'em coming!

A co-worker of mine (who plays WoW not GW) says he wants a weapon that has a very minor chance of completely deleting the enemy player's account.

Xue Yi Liang · Aug 18, 2005, 06:47 PM // 18:47

OMG - I just had a brainstorm....

Signet of Ventrilloquism - (for PvP) - allows you to send one team chat message to the other team - impersonating one of their players
e.g. "Don't rez me - I'm OK" or "Sry I'm a smiter monk only." etc.

Illusion of Wealth - (for PvP) - looks like someone dropped a sigil - or other rare item - if they're prone to reflexive grabbing the victim will suffer 18-60 damage and health degen of -3

Pinata's Curse {Elite} - (for PvP) target will immediately drop all contents of bags and backpacks - which anyone can collect (I really, really want this skill)

Aura of Inebriation - all enemies within a certain radius are afflicted with the effect of 1-10 Dwarven Ale for 20 seconds

Aura of the Glitch - all enemies within a certain radius fall into any nearby map glitches for 10 seconds (e.g. stuck in stairs or in a rock)

Glen/Glenda Hex - changes gender of target - effects are permanent unless higher level remove hex is applied or same caster applies Hex again

Rabid Curse - makes target Ranger pet attack owner with added poison damage

Leash Law Curse - makes target Ranger pet remain within the aggro circle of the owner at all times. If Ranger calls a target - the pet will attack but also pull the Ranger along keeping him in the aggro radius.

Barrel of Monkeys - (for PvP) your entire team appears as Mo/W to the other team for 12-35 seconds

Popup Hex - {Elite} (for PvP)- target gets screen popup ads that appear at a rate of 3 pips. Effects last 120 seconds or until they clear all popups which will end Popup Hex

"Leeroy!" - Shout - Warrior gains +25% speed and gains attack and armor bonus only to farthest enemy on his map. For the duration of skill - player chat is disabled from receiving messages.

Happy Feet - target is locked in /dance emote for 10 seconds - or until attacked (works a lot like pacifism) - (actually this one might not be bad for a real skill - LOL)

Bullybait - warrior skill - cast on self - to the enemy you appear as a Mo/W with a low health bar - the chat gets spammed with "I have 2 out of 35 energy!"

Damon Windwalker · Aug 18, 2005, 06:52 PM // 18:52

Xue - some of those are sheer genius!

Ward Against Asshats {Elite}
For the next <1-365> days, any potential morons cannot join your group. Only works if you have a Necro, Ranger, or Mesmer in your group. Having two of any said classes doubles the duration of the Ward.

Mantra of Intelligence
For the duration of your playing session, any stupid comment shouted at you by a 5 year old gets blocked. This mantra ends if you use L33t-sp34k

Signet of the Necro {Uber-Elite}
For the next decade, any necro will pwn the hell out of any Monk, Warrior, or Elementalist

"WTF WHERE ARE THE HEALS?!?!?" (Shout)
For the duration of the mission, the next time a warrior runs ahead of the monk, dies, and complains to the monk, they are unable to be ressurected, they will receive 0% of the gold dropped, and every other member will take their share of whatever items/gold is on their person. This shout doesn't work if the Warrior's IQ is above 5

Glyph of Reasoning {Elite}
For the next mission, your entire team will realize that they do not need 3 monks to do the mission with, and that perhaps bringing a damn mesmer will help vs. monk bosses

Bill Gates' Stance
During farming expeditions, if your total current gold is less than 100 plat, all drops are normal and not nerfed. If you try farming using this stance when you have tons of gold, all monster hits against you are 1 hit KO, protection skills have no effect, and poor people everywhere will start demanding money from you

Mojo Capture Signet (for male elementalists) - Capture and use target player's /dance for the next 10 minutes, while they are stuck with your dorky "Elaine" dance.

Order of Spears - too much dancing in your underwear will make the target trick turn into a fat, pimply, used-up looking piece of trailer-trash.
