Default Skills with "no maximum" effects?

Is there a list of skills with effects with no maximum, such as Ether Renewal?

Grenth's balance. Web of disruption. Resurrection signet. Arcane echo and Echo. If I got what you mean. Ether Renewal has maximum: "For 5...17...20 seconds, each time you cast a spell, you gain 1...3...4 Energy and 5...17...20 Health for each enchantment on you."

Ether Renewal doesn't have an imposed maximum (there's no enforced limit to how much energy or health I can gain from it - I can keep stacking enchantments).
Of course there is a theoretical limit - there are only so many enchantments in the game.

I don't think such a list exists - someone would have to compile one by searching through all the skills.

That's how every list is compiled though, right?

I'm guessing what the OP really wants is a list of skills that can be abused as badly as ER in similar ways, which is a much easier one: Mark of Pain, and maybe Avatar of Dwayna if you stretch your definition a bit. Could also include Protective Spirit since there is technically no limit to the damage it can prevent.

Shield of Absorption and seed of life, Really great together, but very effective seperately too. Every damage pulse reduces damage by 5. I really like it in the UW to get by the behemoths in the mountains, prot up and just stroll through the traps.

Sorry for the vague description - what I mean is basically what Xenomortis said. Skills that function incrementally multiplicatively (generally have "each" or "for each" in their description) but no "maximum" clause. I'm not talking about the attribute spread. Ether Renewal has no max, while Arcane Zeal does. Of course everything has a maximum in practive (for ER, there are obviously only so many enchantments you can have on you at once).

There used to be several, but alot of them are fixed (such as mystic sandstorm) because they led to abuse in one way or the other.
