Echo (skill type)

From Guild Wars Wiki

This article is about the skill type. For the elite Mesmer skill of the same name, see Echo.

Skill type. An echo is a skill unique to paragons which provides a benefit to a single non-spirit ally and has a duration. The effects of all echoes relate to chants and shouts in some way. Like most skills, all echoes have an energy cost, activation time and recharge time.

No effect other than death can prematurely remove an echo.

[edit] Variations

Many echoes belong to one of two sub-types:

Finales

• Finales, which provide an instant effect which is triggered whenever a Chant or Shout ends on the target.
• Blazing Finale
• Energizing Finale
• Finale of Restoration
• Purifying Finale

Refrains

• Refrains, which provide continuous effects, and are reapplied, resetting their durations, whenever a Chant or Shout ends on the target ally.
• Aggressive Refrain
• Bladeturn Refrain
• Burning Refrain
• Hasty Refrain
• Mending Refrain

Neither

• Enduring Harmony
• Soldier's Fury

[edit] Notes

• Note that ends specifically requires the Chant or Shout to have a duration (it must appear in the Effects Monitor). Instant Shout effects such as "Never Give Up!" will not trigger echoes.
