The new sunspear skills

After the big wait they finally came!!

Most of them are very nice, but i felt specially sorry for the mesmer one, which in my opinion is no big deal and got a high energy cast.


What did you guys think about the new skills?



edit: Took out complains so shuuda wont cry

Prehaps this topic would have been better if you said what all the Skills did, and mentioned that there are now luxon/kurzick skills in factions (or so I've heard), but no, like 50% of this forum the 1st thing you do is complaint.

Yeah, how about some descriptions! Especially the mesmer one please...

rits got seriously shortchanged here

Ummmm the Monk skill is basically a Healing Seed that triggers heal party...its amazing. Almost too good....but not.

Man!mesmers Are Gonna Be Sweet In Pve Now!

Excellent skills Anet. You have restored alot of confidence among your playerbase from what i'm hearing in the cities.

Just two gripes about the skills.
The monk skill is target other ally, but i understand this is probably because of the bots.
The ranger skill demotes a couple of BM skills to say the least. You may have to buff those.

Paragon skill is particularly nice and i hope it stays like that. I can understand the armor nerf now. Totally justified.

These skills are the business... top banana... icing on the cake. Please make more!!

Feel happy for ele's. Not looking forward to getting my face melted, but hey ho, all's fair in love and war.

Erm, is that sarcasim, as I find Cry of Frustration to be a good skill, and if the Sunspear skill is a more powerful version, then I'm happy. AoE interruptions are the kind of buff Mesmers needed for PvE.

Well luckly i havnt used all my hero skill points.

kinda bad if you have right...:S

*glues critical agility to bar*

Here are all of the skills.




I unlocked Necrosis and Critical Agility already so that is what they are at level 10 sunspear.

Wee! Rk10 Paragon LFG!

Edit: Crap! You can use SS skills from your secondary.

*deletes paragon*

The Dervish skill is total hax.

Hello? Avatars. o_o;

I LOVE these skills! Anet did a GREAT job! Anet, you have made me proud and for the moment my faith in you guys is restored. ANYONE have the kurzick/luxon skills???

GRENTH is now usable!!!

R10 ranger, no hero skill points available (and cannot earn any more as I'm also r8 lightbringer...) therefore cannot get the skills...
perhaps some way of alternate aquisition needs to be looked at?

doh, they already did can exchange 1 skill point (and 1k) for a hero skill point at the hero skill trainers now too.
