Top 5 underpowered elite skills

 * 5: Preservation: The "in the area" range is rather short.
 * 4: Ritual Lord: This helps with spamming rituals. Unfortunately, most of the rituals that are worth spamming are also expensive. This skill could use a reduced cost or longer duration, or, better yet, provide an added energy management effect.
 * 3: Signet of Spirits: It has the same net energy gain and linked attribute as Offering of Spirit, but it has a longer recharge time and it doesn't work at all without a spirit in range.
 * 2: Glimmer of Light: Healing Light heals 40...104 for 5 energy and gives you 1...3 energy if you heal an enchanted foe. Word of Healing heals for 15...106 for 5 energy and can heal for another 15...106 if the target was below 50% health. Glimmer of Light heals for 25...89 for 5 energy.
 * 1: "Incoming!": 10 20. Elite Shout. For 1...3 seconds, all party members within earshot take 50% less damage.

Skills I'd like to see

 * Ranger
 * Expertise-linked attacks that work with both bows and spears.
 * Monk
 * Sanctify Enchantments: Enchantment Spell. The next time target ally would have one or more enchantments removed, the ally retains those enchantments and Sanctify Enchantments ends.
 * Scourge Disenchantment: Hex Spell. For 30 seconds, each time hexed foe removes an Enchantment, that foe taxes X holy damage.
 * Scourge Hexes: Hex Spell. For 30 seconds, each time hexed foe casts a Hex, that foe takes X holy damage.
 * Necromancer
 * Animate Immolated Horror. Creates a minion which has constant degeneration and inflicts burning whenever it hits.
 * Animate Lernaean Horror. Like Animate Shambling Horror, except instead of spawning a level 0..12 Jagged Horror that causes bleeding, it spawns a level 0..12 Lesser Lernaean Horror which doesn't cause bleeding, but spawns a level 0..10 Bone Minion when it dies.
 * Animate Venomous Horror / Fiend. Animates a minion that inflicts poison.
 * Animate Volatile Horror / Minion / Minions. Like Unstable Roamers or Infested Terrans.
 * Blight Shackles: For X seconds, target foe is hexed with Curse of Thorns, suffering 1 Health degeneration. The next time target foe would have one or more hexes removed, those hexes are retained, the foe taxes X Shadow Damage and Curse of Thorns ends.
 * Death Bond (hex that redirects half of the damage you receive to target foe).
 * Long-duration, single-target versions of Order of Pain and Order of the Vampire, possibly with health degeneration as a drawback.
 * Spiteful Barbs. For X seconds, hexed foe suffers from X Health degeneration. If Spiteful Barbs ends prematurely, that foe takes (remaining duration*degeneration*2) damage.
 * Mesmer
 * A Mesmer equivalent of Spiteful Spirit. Specifically, an elite that hexes multiple targets with the equivalent of Empathy (Mass Empathy? Shared Pain?).
 * A multi-target health degeneration spell (Phantasmal Swarm?).
 * An Inspiration Magic full party enchantment or shout of some sort.
 * Mantra of Displacement: Incoming attacks have an X% chance to Miss you, if you are hit by an attack, Mantra of Displacement ends, you shadow step to a random nearby location and Mantra of Displacement is disabled for X seconds.
 * Mesmer Chants.
 * Aria of Recovery: For 10 seconds, the next Spell used by each party member within earshot recharges X% faster.
 * Aria of Speed: For 10 seconds, the next Spell used by each party member within earshot casts X% faster.
 * Ballad of Tranquility: For X seconds, each ally within earshot gains X Health regeneration and X Energy regeneration until that ally takes damage.
 * Lyric of Recovery: For 10 seconds, the next Signet used by each party member within earshot recharges X% faster.
 * Lyric of Speed: For 10 seconds, the next Signet used by each party member within earshot activates X% faster.
 * Elementalist
 * Ranged Air Magic area spell (Ball Lightning? Tornado? Thunderball?).
 * Earth area DoT spell that cripples with every pulse (Quicksand?).
