This is the unoffical elite skill guide. This guide has the purpose of telling
player where they can find an elite skill. I've noticed many elite skill guides
on the internet that were incomplete or fractured. I'm sure if you searched
the internet hard enough, you could find a better guide then this.
This is general information about elite skills and how to capture them.
Elite skills are found in various locations from Boss monsters all throughout
the Guild War's world. Boss monsters are defined with a unique name and a
special coloured aura around there body. These are the monsters that you can
use a Signet of Capture (first aquired in Lion's Arch from a quest) on their
dead bodies (after the new build upgrade) and select the skill you wish to
acquire.
Each class in Guild War's has many unique elite skills you can capture. The
limitation to these is you can only capture ones that are specific to your
profession (or secondary profession). To get any other profession's Elite
skill, you must switch your secondary class or simply try it with another
character.
Warrior Elite Skills can be captured from Boss enemies with a yellow aura
around them.
Shout skills have ""'s around there name.
Unconfirmed skill sighting will have a *(astrict) by there name.
