ArenaNet:Skill feedback/Paragon/Burning Shield

Psych's Issue -- 20:37,24 July 2008
Discussion
 * Issue: Burning is nice but weak in a skill that is targeted at shutting down melee.


 * Suggestion: Add a 1..4 scale blind, a 1..17 scale weakness,cripple, or cracked armor, or make it disable all attack skills for 1..5. Also, fix the bug with the activation. Psychiatric Consultant 03:41, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Issue


 * 1)A primary attribute skill that's ineffective if compared to a Primary attribute skill Shield Bash.
 * Comparison:"For seconds, while wielding a shield, the next attack skill used against you is blocked. If it was a melee attack, your attacker is set on fire for  seconds."
 * when compared to Shield Bash:
 * "For seconds, while wielding a shield, the next attack skill used against you is blocked. If it was a melee skill, your attacker is knocked down and that skill is disabled for an additional 15 seconds."
 * 2)Not scaling Shield Bash prove more effective than scaling Burning Shield.
 * 3)The foe can keep his barrage of attacks.
 * 4)Too long of a recharge.
 * 5)Too low of duration to block an attack.
 * 6)It just provide burning for a short duration.
 * 7)"Unlike most typeless skills, this skill cannot be activated in the middle of another action and has a slight aftercast delay."
 * 8)Shield of Force prove more effective.


 * Suggestion
 * 1) "For seconds, while wielding a shield, the next attack skill used against you is blocked. If it was a melee attack, your attacker is set on fire and (blinded/weakened) for  seconds."

If Make This Skill as the Only Blocking Stance for Paragons

 * Issue
 * Paragons are totally inferior in 4 people-team pvp. Maybe it because they dont have any skills prevents themselves being spiked.


 * Suggestion
 * Make this skill as a stance, "If you're wielding a shield, for 0~5 seconds you have 50% chance blocking, everytime you block a melee-attack, attacker set on fire for 0~1 seconds. Recharge reduce to 15 seconds.

 * Issue
 * Weak compared to it's Warrior counterpart. Shield Bash knock-downs and disables. This skill only Burns. In order to make this skill even an option when next to Shield Bash it should also be given disable '''and the ability to be activated while using another skill or knocked down.


 * Suggestion
 * Skill. ( seconds) You block the next attack skill. Block effect: Inflicts Burning ( seconds) and +15 second recharge if it was a melee skill. No effect unless wielding a shield.

 * Issue
 * 20 sec recharge just for 1 Block is a bit poor, add a knockdown and/or decrease the warmup to 10 sec, maybe also add "50% miss chance unless Leadership 8 or higher" to prevent other classes to use this skill.
