AliamRationem.5172 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Illusionary Ambush (Mirage, Deception utility) It teleports you and your clones to random locations that may land you anywhere within a radius equal to your weapon range from the target. That means using it with a 1200 range weapon like staff or greatsword you can potentially travel up to 2400 units. That's a big teleport! But it also ignores Z axis, so you can teleport on top of objects. It doesn't care about line of sight either, so you can, for example, teleport through walls, around corners, etc. And yes, sometimes it will teleport you into inconvenient places (e.g. inside of objects, through cave walls/floors/ceilings, into fire, etc.). But I love the randomness of it. Just roll the dice! Aside from the fun/random factor, it's also a pretty solid skill. It's an instant teleport, fairly short cooldown, with a full 1 second evade that also breaks target and refocuses clones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Fist Flurry. I just love the fact that my toon drops her weapon and proceeds to hit somebody with Pai Mei's Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mea.5491 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 My Firebrand's Tome of Resolve - Chapter 2: Radiant Recovery, I love the way my character spins like a ballerina. :D But most Firebrand Tome skills and casting mantras have nice visual effects. > @"Blood Red Arachnid.2493" said: > Fist Flurry.

Brother.1504 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Always liked engineer turrents. And of course any ability that makes a bubble. Pink ones, golden ones, or blue bubbles, so dramatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossaber.8934 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 It got to be Hundred Blade, it is the GW2 version of Omnislash from Final Fantasy IIV. This is the skill that enslaved my heart as a greatsword warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curunen.8729 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Illusionary Ambush is indeed a sexy move. Blink and Jaunt too. Also as bad as it is, Sand through Glass followed by Axe 2 through the mirror is extremely visually and aurally satisfying. The sound effect of breaking any mirage mirror is so therapeutic.

The sound effect of breaking any mirage mirror is so therapeutic. Yeah, I wish the mirrors worked differently somehow. I mean that combo is a nice setup for using a mirror, but often they are not conveniently placed and moving around to break them feels awkward and not really worth the effort.

Ayakaru.6583 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 The move itself is simple, but its Headbutt. Its practically instantaneous, powerfull, and instantly puts me in berserker’s rage mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlit.6421 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Hmmm....debating between mesmer focus 4 and mesmer GS 5 because I've gotten some real good environmental kills in WvW and EOTM with those. Not to mention Skyhammer in PvP back in the good ole days lol. Lich Form used to be a fav of mine because you transform into this giant spooker and blast people to dealth. Now would probably be mesmers portal, its just such a wonderful skill x3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoJoe.9063 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Guardian greatsword 2: spin to win! It always feels like the right move somehow, especially when you drop the symbol beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrbitalButt.5708 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 In a two part maneuver I like to call "The Speedboat," I plunge, weapon in hand and screaming, off an enormous cliff. In Part 2 of this tactically superior move, I strike the ground with the full force of my forehead, killing me instantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bart.3687 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 My favourite skill animation-wise? Hands down Mesmer's Axe 2 (Lingering Thoughts), followed by Gravity Well, Ele's Twist of Fate, Riptide, Meteor Shower and Necro's Axe 2 (Ghastly Claws). I don't really care for crazy particle effects (actually things like Photon Forge skills make my eyes sore at times), it's the way my character moves while casting that I'm all about. This game doesn't have many skill animations I like (prolly due to quite fast paced combat, short cast times and a lot of insta-cast skills which I loathe), but the ones I've mentioned above are very nice and pleasant to watch imo.

Steve The Cynic.3217 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 * Reaper GS 2. "Gravedigger". * Weaver sword 2 in Fire/whatever, "Flame Uprising" * Guardian GS 2, spin to win. * Guardian GS 3, Blinding Jump. Er. Leap of Faith. But not during the stress test in August 2012, when it missed the target AND killed the guardian. * Daredevil Staff: autoattack and Vault (for JPs).

Rauderi.8706 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 The skill that got me into the game: Earthshaker. It's tame by flashy standards, but it's an old favorite, you might say. My Charr seemed so happy the time I used it during beta, testing out characters. Flying through the air with this big AoE and a "Wahoo!" crash landing. I got hooked.
