Price of Pride

Issue

Not especially potent or interesting to use. Less than 1:1 energy denial to your target, assuming they have at least some form of hex removal.

Suggestion

Lower duration to 6, increase energy loss to 5..12. This will punish heavy elite spamming in an interesting way.

Issue

It doesn't affect passive elite skills, long duration elite enchantments and low recharge elite skills.

Weak effect.

Suggestion 1 - Area of effect hex

Effect: Hex Spell. All the foes in target area are hexed with with Price of Pride. For 6...9...10 seconds, the next time the hexed foe uses an elite skill, that foe loses 1...6...7 Energy.

Well, it can burn mostly 5 if people aren't careful. Besides it hurts the mesmer energy more than that of the others, but it would add pressure.

Suggestion 2 - Single target hex

Effect: Hex Spell. For 10...15...17 seconds, every time the hexed foe uses an elite skill, that foe loses 3...6...7 Energy.

It would hurt people who rely on low recharge elite's more, would give pressure in the long run and ask for a hex removal.
