Reaper of Grenth

I think a look should be taken at the elite skill Reaper of Grenth. This is one skill which has very good potential but due to it's very short range and high cooldown no one uses it.

Or y'know. It's probably because it's race locked behind the hoomon meta.

Are you kidding, this skill is too powerful for a racial skill, and one of the few that people actually take. ArenaNet stated a long time ago that they don't want the racial skills to affect combat, but RoG definitely does due to its ten target limit.

Its useful in more situations than most elite skills, which tend to be very bad on average.

For it being a such a powerful skill it's a wonder that it has not been used in a meta. I tried it a number of times but it's short range and high cooldown made it worthless. Anet is very good at balancing, I'm sure they could rework this to be useful.

It’s pretty good, but the cooldown and duration just isn’t worth it. It’s good when used on reaper for life force regen with chilling victory.

If they move it to necro they could buff it, keep racials useless tho (or somehow allow us to use other races recitals). Having to play specific races is annoying, take root was nerfed in PvE for this very reason
