Skill of the Day [10-12-07] Angorodon's Gaze

Angorodon's Gaze [Spell]

Steal 15...63 Health from target foe. If you are suffering from a Condition, you gain 12 Energy.

Energy 15 Casting time : 1 Recharge Time : 5
Found in : Eye of the North

This Necromancer skill falls under the Blood magic attribute which makes it usefull for other classes.
This skill has also pro's and cons, so lets review those for a moment.

Cons :

1. You need to be inflicted with a condition to get 12 energy back. Some conditions aren't that bad but best to avoid conditions most of the time at least.
2. 15 energy if your not inflicted with a condition hurts a bit though, so watch your hp meter.

Pro's :

1. High Damageing blood magic spell.
2. Easily combined with other Necromancer skills.
3. Bypasses defenses like protection spirit, shelter, reversal of damage, etc.
4. You heal yourself when you use this spell.

This Spell is one of the better spells added to Guild Wars. It has great potential and still is very nice even though it's reduced from 15 energy to 12 energy back. Combine it with Foul feast or with Blood drinker.
If you're a blood magic type, this should be one of the skills you use almost ALL the time.

By the way, does anyone think this is usefull or not? If not I'll quit doing so.

I find it usefull, the more insight on game dynamics the better I get

yeah its really usefull
