Worst Elite Skill in the Game (PvE) 

After people told me in the other topic how I wasn't supposed to talk about PvE, I decided to make this one. IMO, Peace and Harmony is the worst PvE elite. Either that or nearly (notice I said nearly) every mesmer elite. What do you think?

Mr. Hobo

EDIT: Elites like Fevered Dreams, Ineptitude, Energy Surge, and others are great in PvE, but a lot of them are skills that react to humans, limiting their effectiveness.

Its good for a warrior... or ranger 2 classes that dont need to technically cast a SPELL on a foe.

Mending.

Is there any competition at all?

(you might want to narrow your topic down by only saying elites)

It's the part about
"Peace and Harmony ends if that ally casts a spell that targets a foe or deals damage to a foe." that hurts it.

I would say it is probably:


Keystone Sig or "Incoming!" Boon sig is kinda useless too. SO is Ride the lightning, most of the E-Storage elites, and Mirror of Ice.

think u have to read a little better(not saying u can't read :o), it will end when u deal any kind of damage, but maybe a tanking warrior who only keeps aggro without attacking can use it? :P

Hahahaha, it says SPELL in the deion. Sword attacks, Bow attacks and Spear Attacks, arent spells.

And btw Incoming isnt too bad, but the duration is bad.

Edit: oh ur right about peace and harmony, lol my bad, maybe they should change the deion a bit?

but what are you gonna do to finish him off? You have no energy...unless you are specifically trying to kill shadow sins...but why would you do that?


I am of the impression that any skill that drains your energy completely for a class other than warrior or paragon is insta fail.

use a -5nrg sword/spear/axe and a sheild then after use switch to a 15/-1 and an offhand then use a skill. = insta win on sf sin.

On the other hand, how often do you see Shadow Form sins in PvE?! No, that skill is bad no matter how you look at it...

RE: Worst Elite Skill in the Game (PvE) 

Perhaps reapers mark, quicksand, Animate Flesh Golem, Air of Enchantment, Aura_of_Faith, Warrior's Endurance and man I hate bip like you wouldn't belive. It's a personal thing elites are good or bad depending on how you play the game each has its use in a certain situation. and bad for one doesnt mean bad full stop. Those are the ones I don't like at the moment.

RE: Worst Elite Skill in the Game (PvE) 

ok, first imo there aren't really any "bad" elite skills for pve(except for maybe that signet of disenchant thing) Peace and Harmony is not a bad skill, some people that are bonders use it, and a general monk can use it, just dont be an idiot and attack.

Yeah but 1 energy every three seconds? That's only 21 energy total - the cost. Is that really worth it?

Arcane Languor

By the time you cast this on an enemy, they don't cast near enough spells to Exhaust them to zero energy. After the enemy gets 1 or 2 skills off after you cast Arcane Languor, they should already be dead.

Mesmer bosses would drain themselves quick. But that skill is mainly for pvp so w/e.
