Smoke Trap fair enough. BHA, no.

Supportive Spirit used to be used a bit in HA before Aura of Stability I thinks.

Never used it, and probably never will, not as it is now. Damage is too weak.

If we are including monster only skills, Parasitic Bite takes the cake.
For those that don't know what it does, it is a hex that makes the foe have 1 degen and you gain 1 regen, for 5 seconds. This is used in EotN, a high level area, by dervishes. It is literally less then half as strong as life siphon at 0 blood magic.

Wastrel's Collapse i use for a constant KD warrior, but its kinda hard to work but its fun for annoying people or shutting down a boss for eternity.
warriors cunning would be good if it was 20 sec recharge not a min
prot bond=fail
dryder's defense same thing as cunning with a 30sec recharge instead

Since those two skills don't have that update they're bad, no question. If I understand correctly, you're using KDs so they can't cast during Wastrel's duration. However, most players will be casting again the instant they stand up and will disable Wastrel's before it can activate. If you want to KD with a warrior take a better skill like Shock, Backbreaker, Earthshaker, or Devastating Hammer.

[skill]wastrel's collapse[/skill], good skill if it wasnt elite.
[skill]signet of strength[/skill] /signed
[skill]warrior's cunning[/skill] not that bad, was used in top10 pvp in early 06.
[skill]protective bond[/skill] birth of 55's, could now be used with the ranger 55hp build.
[skill]dryder's defenses[/skill] bad, too long recharge
[skill]repeating strike[/skill] Could be placed in some builds.

Imo [skill]Scavenger's Focus[/skill] 2 sec cast, elite, too low dmg

Not to say that a skill be used much to be good, but Bleeding is only good for one thing and thats a cover condition.
To be fair though, it'll really mess with a team full of newbies

Wammo: OMG I'M BLEEDING! I'M POISONED! HELPS EHLPS! I GOT -7 DEGEN! MONK HEAL! HEAL!

Just a question: would you consider a skill that is ok but vastly overshadowed by another skill, to fit here?

So, for instance, would [skill]draw spirit[/skill] be bad because [skill]Summon Spirits[/skill] is better?

It's not really fair to compare normal skills to PvE-only skills.

Worst Skill = Signet of Stamina

Why? Because it's used for runners, and I don't like runners. Personal opinion choice.

[skill]Extend Conditions[/skill] Using only mesmer skills Mesmer’s can only apply 3 conditions…. 2 of them take 10 seconds to take effect and the other is dependant on 2 hexes to be in place to cause the condition.

How many hoops

Any way


[skill]primal rage[/skill]


Take one thing away and it could be great…. Honestly A assassin with basic skills can out class this one


Edit

[skill]Signet of Stamina[/skill] [skill]illusionary weaponry[/skill] GG

Of course you would have to be a Warrior running an IW build which would be a waste of talent…. But anything goes in RA

you missed alot
master of magic is great on smiters: spamming rof and guardian under zealot's fire.
second wind was ran after the e-prodigy nerf on ele runners.
iQ used it in the autumn finale against QQ.

I just faced in in TA. A water ele spamming blurred vision while your ranger interupts are constantly blocked (used cs, no mb). May need a buff like natural stride: 5 energy, 7-8 duration @12 spec and 12 recharge
