ArenaNet:Skill feedback/Paragon/Shouts, Chants, and Echoes

Issue: On a motigon, in cases like zergway, some serious chant and shout stacking happens to give teams with large amounts of non-pressurable healing with few viable counters. This has caused plenty of nerfs to skills that are weak-ish compared to similar skills on other support classes.

Suggestion: Change some mechanics to more easily defeat zergway or stacking paragons, so that more, better buffs for lone-team or diversified paragons can emerge. Examples are:
- make foes suffering from weakness not able to come under the effect of an indirect shout or chant
- have a trigger limit number for some non-renewing echoes, like Energizing Finale / Finale of Restoration, while still buffing the skills overall
- have copies of a shout or chant on your bar be disabled for their recharge time when you come under the effects of that shout or chant from an ally on your team, then buff skills like "Incoming!",
