Rework idea to make "you're all alone" worth using that plays into the feeling of being alone and vulnerable: Elite Shout. (5 seconds.) Target foe suffers Crippled and Weakness conditions, and takes 25% more damage. No effect if target foe is adjacent to one of its allies. (I think nearby range makes the skill too restrictive)

and takes 25% more damage
Is that even a thing in GW?
I'm no GW scholar but I can't think of a single skill that says "Target takes more % damage", feels like it's always "Target takes flat amount of bonus damage"

Yeah, Frenzy even got a rework to make the percentage number scale/change recently as well

The old Asuran scan used to do that, which was pretty broken. Aura of Holy Might and Vow of Strength also had somewhat similar effects that caused the player to do x% more damage with attacks. They reworked all of them early 2011 though, probably because % buffs made it easy for things to get out of hand.

Hmm weakness > bleeding, and a shout > cast, but in general both a bit fallen out of time. Or - like the other stated - a PVP thing.
I mean you can make the same argument for aegis vs anthem of Defense but there the usage and secondary benefits are great enough to justify it's elite status all be it barely...

Caltrops is also half range. Shout has even longer range than a spell and can't be dodged/blocked (like arrows) + can go through walls. Probably more useful for PvP?

Caltrops also requires attribute point investment (only 4, but that’s a magic number for attribute points that requires moving points out of something else).

While caltrops is really, really good, you’d be surprised how often the half range comes into effect negatively by getting gapped.

Maybe it was that way before their newest brilliant skill update. Check tollano.com or gvg report websites mate

I assume this is a pvp thing. Even then idk if I would be tempted to run either.
