uhm 15%??? veeeeeery useful... o.O --Lou-Saydus 16:37, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Is "in range" the same range as other nature rituals? - HeWhoIsPale 12:28, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

damn, it sucks lol 29 August 2007 (UTC)

It amounts to 15% damage reduction against non-melee types for the entire party. Not horrible for a 5 energy skill. --Thervold 20:53, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Except that it seems to be affecting ALL ranged attacks, not just those from 'foes'.--Semantic 01:54, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

It's not just a 5 energy skill, its a skill slot and an activation time. Some of these new pve skills are rather weak. Dancing Gnome 21:06, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

True - its a skill slot, and an activation time, and its 5 energy. but you cant really complain about it affecting everyone - looks a nature ritual no? Guess the bug was fixed on it, but still - i wasnt complaining. this thing might work in a few situations but i do have to agree. this one is weak. Fraggy 05:35, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Please delete this skill, it has no use and doesn't help against the charr either. 87.189.253.221 17:56, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

I'm sure ANet is watching your every edit and ready to make sweeping changes to the game at your whim. Anyway, yeah... it's a useless skill as it is. -- Mafaraxas 04:20, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I rather take "Ebon Battle Standard of Courage", it reduces damage from Charr by more than 50% and from everybody else for more than 25%. Compared to that skill, this one is useless.

I found this skill useful in Arborstone --24.233.111.100 21:14, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ebon Vanguard Ritual

This is not a "binding ritual". Not by description, and not by effect. Why is it listed as one? --Loonsbury 12:07, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Because it's only supposed to effect foes, and nature rituals effect everyone. - HeWhoIsPale 12:54, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, bug granted, but: The description for binding ritual would need to be change (ritualist only) / It's labeled "Ebon Vanguard Ritual" in-game, which seems to be a different kind of ritual given the spirit's appearance and supposed effect. This is all in addition to the misnaming of the spirit or skill compared to other spirits (high winds) --Loonsbury 13:13, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No change after the pve update?

Well this skill sucked before and still sucks now. I really did think they would make this skill just a bit useful... --SkyHiRider 05:54, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Well...maybe Izzy's team use it all the time and we cant see how...--ShadowFog 03:33, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Well this is the worst skill the game. People already knew back when gw:en was released that this skill doesn't need a buff because it's useless, it needs a rework instead. Now the real problem is that izzys team simply doesn't care and you have to wait until Linsey Murdock does something and that may never happen. 87.189.184.145 11:11, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

There are more pressing issues. Although, it will be nice if the skill gets a rework/buff.--ITAMAR 19:15, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
