I haven't got any actual skill suggestion but I do have suggestion to do with skills.

First off, I really, really like the sound of the suggestion on page 1, where you can have skill available to your primary and secondary profession. I don't think you would need an awful lot of them, just two or three per combination. (There are a fair amount of combinations out there, any more would cause all the programers to move to the mountains.) Second, there could be certain moves that are more potent/only usable against certain professions. Like a move that focuses on breaking through a warriors armour (I'm talking about the description here, not an actual armour bypass. It would be more of a +damage.) or something like that... I dunno, it just popped into my head...

Cycle of Pain - Elite Necromancer Enchantment(Blood Magic)
Energy Cost: 15 Casting Time: 2 Recharge Time: 60

For 45-60 seconds, anytime you would gain health using a blood magic skill, that health is negated and redirected to your opponenet in damage. Damage inflicted in this way is reduced by 80-50%

I really like OP's skill suggestions, they're intriguing yet balanced.

I'm going to throw in a skill to get lost in this gigantic thread:

Flashback - Elite Mesmer Spell(Illusion Magic)
Energy Cost: 10 Casting Time: 5 Recharge Time: 45

If target foe is dazed, foe unwillingly shadow steps away from you and is dazed for 2..10 seconds.

This is a simple but powerful skill inspired by Mallyx. It should teleport the creature to the edge of your compass.

Bankai · Feb 13, 2007, 03:43 PM // 15:43

Since elementalists need a good self-heal...

Elemental scribe
Energy cost: 5 or 10, Casting time: 1, Recharge: 12

Cost: 10, Recharge: 60
Stance. For 2...40...50...60 seconds, your attacks deal cold damage, and whenever you make a critical hit, your foe suffers from poison for 2...4 seconds. (not overpowered, because it relies on critical hits to do what apply poison does anyway)

Sacrifice 13% max health. For 5 seconds, all allies in the area are enchanted with Order Of War. Whenever target ally deals damage, that ally deals +8...12 damage, and inflicts cripple and weakness. When Order Of War ends, all allies lose 10% max health. (not overpowered, because all allies lose health as well.)

Monk, hex, linked to smiting
10 energy, 2 second cast time, 30 second recharge
Hex spell. For 10...30 seconds, whenever target foe sacrifices health, all allies in the area also sacrifice that ammount of health, and you sacrifice 2% maximum health. (imagine the agony that a team would be in if their infuser had this cast on him.)

Enchantment Spell. For the next 3...15 seconds, you gain +4...+6 energy regeneration, but suffer -6...-4 health degeneration. When Pain Fetish ends, you are crippled and weakened for 20...8 seconds. (at the cost of life, you can spam attacks endlessly. Is it worth it?)

Shout. Paragon based, Leadership linked.
5 energy, 1 second cast time, 20 second recharge.
Shout. For the next 5...15 seconds, all allies in the area gain +10..30 armor. This shout negates all speed boosts. (not elite because it is a "watch yourself" that takes away speed boosts.)

Sorry double post

StarrTheInsane · Feb 24, 2007, 04:37 PM // 16:37

Had this one in a dream jsut before I woke up this morning...

Hostile Harvest - Dervish Elite Signet - recharge 60
Throw a seed. If this attack hits, it does x(some kinda minimal damage). If it misses, the seed sprouts into a sentient plant (level based on attribute in Earth Prayers) and joins the fight.

The idea here is to use this when you're up against something with a really good dodge or block skill. You don't want this to hit. It has several practical applications for the people in your party too. If extends the range in types of damage to cover enemy weaknesses, offers a ranged attack to a melee class, benefit's the number of allies effected by a paragon shout/chant, offers a possible exploitable corpse to a necro...the list goes on.

Redfeather1975 · Feb 24, 2007, 06:27 PM // 18:27

I post a lot of suggestions on other forums, but maybe I'll post some here as well.

These are all mesmer spells, because I love me mesmer to pieces. All I want to see nowadays are fun spells introduced that open up build versatility and creativity.

*Inspiring Encore* (Inspiration)
10e/1 second cast/25 recharge
Elite Enchantment - Inspiring Encore mimics the effect of the last spell used. If that spell was a hex you gain 1...5 energy and Inspiring Encore ends.

*Pain of Persistence* (domination)
15e/3/4 second cast/15 recharge
Elite Hex Spell - Interrupt target foe's skill. Target is hexed with Pain of Persistence and if target foe attempts to use that skill again within the next 10...30 seconds they suffer 50...100 points of damage and Pain of Persistence ends.

*Wastrel's Nightmare* (domination)
10e/2 second cast/15 recharge
Elite Hex Spell - For the next 15 seconds, every 5...3 seconds target foe suffers 1...50 damage if they are not attacking.

*Illusionary Step* (illusion)
10e/10 recharge
Elite Stance - Caster gains 75% chance to block for 1...3 seconds and each time an attacker fails to hit them steals 1...3 energy.

*Cacophonic Mantra* (fast casting)
25e/2 second cast/30 recharge
Elite Shout - All foes within earshot suffer a 50% reduction in casting speed for 5...10 seconds.

*Chronomancer* (unlinked)
5e/30 recharge
Elite Stance - For 15 seconds you suffer no aftercast when casting mesmer spells.

BTW, I'm a graphic artist in advertising, so if anyone wants super cute icons to replace those smilies I can easily make some stylish icons. It'll be a blast.
They'd be considered the sole property of Anet as I'd be making them for fun for the game.

Excalibur5 · Feb 24, 2007, 09:27 PM // 21:27

Spinal Snap [Strength] - For every two strength points, Spinal Snap lasts 1 second longer. Enemy is immobile, and attacks 50% slower.

For those pesky enemies that go after your healers and start running around everywhere!
