There, it's perfect now. Did I miss anything? (T/C) 16:26, 14 April 2007 (CDT)

BTW - this skill is 0...12 just because it is meant to be an exact copy of RoF. (T/C) 21:00, 14 April 2007 (CDT) Nvm, all skills changed to 0...12. (T/C) 12:26, 15 April 2007 (CDT)

My new favorite skill... for Mother Russia! Readem (talk *contribs ) 22:59, 14 April 2007 (CDT)

If I would have been the judge I would have chosen this skill as a winner. Its simply the best. I would really like to see this skill in Eye of the North besides the joke info.-- ( √ iktor ) 11:19, 19 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Heh, yeah, seeing that ANet is willing to go as far as "Can't Touch This!" and Drakes on the Plain, this really could be a real skill. Which is kinda scary thought actually. :/ If it was a real skill it would need a bit of a downtime, I think, since it is pretty damn powerful for a highly spammable 5-energy Hex. You can of course use Regen to get around it, but that is your only source of healing, other than Max Health boost from Endure Pain and whatnot. Which is dangerous. :) At the least, it would bring some more Smiting Monks (primary or secondary) to serious PvP as powerful aids in a Spike.

 * You need to word it a little better or differently. It's doesn't seem to have that "TV watches you!" sorta tone. Eh... have fun. :) --8765 21:30, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * It's hard you must admit, if you want it to still be recognizable as Reversal of Fortune (real skill) and yet come off as In Soviet Russia... skill (comedy skill). I think that the "TV watches you!" tone is more representative of the "Serious" side of Smirnoff's comedy...back when he still had material to poke fun at. But, this is just a fun skill, it's not really meant to convey that ominous and ironic sort of message...not really. It aims more to be funny in the laughing sort of way, not the serious sort of way.

 * That brings up another thought, the description scheme matches what you'd expect any normal gw skill description. But yeah, after some thought, there's no description that'll fit both parameters well. Anyways, this would be a good smiting skill if it wasn't elite. My best guess at making it non-elite, but still usable would be increasing the cd. Good stuff though. --8765 22:00, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Wait, how is this skill react to DF and such. Cause this skill is probably not as good as it seems. I think DF is still applied first, and while it's a decent heal, it's not going to be "here, have a heal other. onoes! you took 80 damage instead!" I think what's going to happen is, "here's the DF first, oh look, it turned into 35 dmg. no matter, here's a 170 HP heal other." --8765 22:04, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Compare it to Scourge Healing. DF bonus applies last; same for this skill. Developers and Soviet Spies are not that shortsighted :) [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 22:07, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
