Also being a Spy, it would trade the broken shadowstep mechanic for a useful but easily countered disguise mechanic as well as costly defensive stealth skills usable only for escaping. The disguise mechanic would allow the spy to have a lot of freedom of movement and to cause a lot of chaos and distraction, but could be easily countered and removed by alert players. Unlike the current GW assassin, the spy would be forced to use only 3 attack skills in a chain so that they don't become 1 dimensional spikers. There would also be more of a disruption/degening focus than a spiking one. Spy players would only be able to achieve solo kills if they could get off their small spike (~180dmg with a 3 skill chain executed in 3sec + deep wound, degen) and then use their disruption skills to keep enemies from healing their target. <br /> <br /> A spy bar would usually consist of 3 attack skills, 1 chain enhancer (such as a preparation or stance), 1-2 evasion skills, 1-2 disruption skills, 1 res.<br /> <br /> <br /> ; Why this is a good idea<br /> * &amp;nbsp;a balanced assassin type character<br /> * &amp;nbsp;playerbase has to become more alert to compete in any level of PvP<br /> * &amp;nbsp;less complaints about profession's spiking power<br /> * &amp;nbsp;sappan sentrehs and other hilarious hijinks<br /> * &amp;nbsp;webcomics depicting above and providing free publicity<br /> <br /> ;Why it may not work out<br /> * &amp;nbsp;probability that bad playerbase is not able to play against spies<br /> * &amp;nbsp;playerbase has to become more alert to compete in any level of PvP and will probably bitch about it<br /> * &amp;nbsp;getting your sentry sapped, facestabs, ect.<br /> * &amp;nbsp;getting sued by Valve<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Profession suggestions|{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]<br /> [[Category:GW2 suggestions|{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]</div>
