Default Skull Crack Buff

Most people believe this is a bad elite, even thoguh I am a fan of it i can admit it needs a little soemthign extra, my suggestion would be at the least to change the description to read:

If this attack hits target foes action is interrupted, if that action was a spell that foe is dazed for 15 seconds.

How much harm could it do to give this elite unconditional interrupt considering its large adren cost, a drop by a swing of adren wouldnt hurt either....

give it a 1/2 second swing like distracting blow and it would be a step in the right direction.

Can adrenal skills have shortened swing times? [Or, rather, do any, currently?]

I propose this change:

8s Recharge
If this attack hits target foes action is interrupted, if that action was a spell that foe is dazed for 15 seconds.

I say unconditional daze, like the Assassin's Temple Strike. I hear Ranger is also getting an unconditional daze in factions

I think that this change might actually make this skill see some use. /signed

I'd actually put this skill on my bar (phear my interrupt spamming, dazing bunny thumpzor!). And seriously, fear that. I'd be scared.

4 Adrenaline
1/4s Cast Time
If this attack hits target foes action is interrupted, if that action was a spell that foe is dazed for 15 seconds.

I'd like to keep it adrenal, and as an elite status I don't find anything wrong with only 4 adrenaline maybe 5, it will actually keep people deciding on what elite skill they should chose.
Besides Poison Arrow lets you apply at will...at range.

I don't think the mechanic exists for adrenal skills to have cast times- they're either instant cast (shouts, stances) or apply to your next melee attack. Maybe this will change at some time, but I don't see it happening.

No I wasn't talking about daze, I was talking about condition spamming.
I don't know about the "cast times" for adrenal skills, but I think they should attack a bit faster to disrupt 2 sec casts.

I'd be fine with it if it said: "...This attack can not be evaded or blocked."

Outside of random arena amusement and PvE, I'd like to see skullcrack get buffed. Reworking the whole skill may be needed. If it looked like distracting blow with a cast time, that'd be awesome.

8 sec recharge=very fast if it's a 15 sec dazed...its the most annoying condition for casters there is! Would be better with a recharge of 20 or something...

Guess what? In Factions Rangers get an elite bow attack that's unconditional Dazed. Isn't that just lovely?
