Hey this is yet another Paragon suggestion page. I'll add it to the paragon suggestion sandbox once its complete and i figure out how to legally do so. I'm not entirely new to GWW i was a random IP address usually went by the Call Sign "Auron B" or "Auron (not that guy)" as to no get myself confused with another "Auron" here.

Goals

Make the paragon a very capable support class Make the paragon a very capable Fighter Class Balance Shouts Chants and Echoes and Leaderships native attibute bonus Address the multi paragon\Imbagon problem

Shouts Chants and Echoes Revised

First lets look at the bread and butter of Paragons. Shouts, Chants and Echoes. One of the things that made the paragon Imbalance was the simple fact that these three skill type were largely ignored in previous installments of the game and had no effective counters. Thus all shouts chants and echoes were by definition overpowered. ANET has since added a series of skills designed to couter these effect but is weary of the past and unwilling to restor paragon skills to their original state, and understadably so. adressing this issue is simple:

A: put in place a system the limits the number of Chants that a player can have active. B: Convert shouts to adrenaline fueled enchantments C: Tie Echoes and ther effect to chants D: Change the fuctionality ofLeadership

1: Chants will come in 3 varietsies, Intro, Interlude, and Finale. Interludes must follow an intro, and Finales must follow an interlude. When an Interlude ends it strips the intro from the player, when a finale ends it strips the interlude from the player and prevents the activation of another Finale on that player for 5 seconds.

in short, chants must be comboed to be effective and are limited to 3 chants per combo, when any portion of the combo is remove it remove all previous entries as well. So there is no need to remove all 3 chants from a player, only the one.

2: shouts will now be spells with no activation time much like a flash enchantment. shouts that effect enemies will in efect not be changed other than the fact that thew will now be effected by spell couters. shouts that apply a buff to the user will now be enchantments and as such much easier to remove.

3: Echoes will be skills that target a single player. a player can only have on echoe on them at a given time and the echo will have no effect unless the player is effected by a chant.

4: Leadership now reduces the energy cost off all paragon skills, shouts and attack skills by 4% per rank. and adds +1 pip of energy regen Every 8 ranks

This allow the paragon to use their skills effectivly regardless of the size of their party, while still makeing Energy denial a viable counter against them. and yes at 16 Leadership the para will have 4 pips of energy regen and -75 health (Super Rune of Leadership)

Now it is impossible to stack tons of unstripable bonuses on your team useing mulitple paragons. the bonuses for Chants and echoes is maxed out at 4 shout(3 Chants and 1 echoe). countering them is simple as removeing a single chant from target foe. when that chant is removed it will trigger the collaps of all other chants and rendering the Echoe useless and activating blackout effect that prefents all effected player from recieving the bonues of another Finale for 5 seconds. however shouts will still be stackable but are easily counter by standard Enchant removal.

these mechanics adress the multiple paragon issues as well as the general imballance the comes with the difficulty of countering shouts chants and Echoes. Now that the mechanics are worked out from here we start getting into the actual skills.

Spear Mastery and Leadership skills

Spear attacks Actually do a decent job, i personally think they are going overboard with the conditional deep wounds but all in all they're decent. I would like to see some more attak chains in here but i'll leave this alone for now.

Leadership will aslo get a huge remodel but its late and i want to focuse on Command and Motivation right now.

Command

Command skills will assist players performing "aggressive" actions (skills that target the eenemy)

• All chants will have a 1 sec
• Names, activation cost and durations are ofcourse to help give the skills more shape and can always be adjusted.
• Sorry if i borked something up i'm not that good at wiki. I just kinda looked at other pages and experimented with the wiki codex dealies as i went.
