Use for "useless" skills?

[vyledust]

I think the skills that are generally considered sub par might shine in the Elite maps. Curse line, dodge from Time and even the -hit from Fire seem, on paper, to shine for elites. People consider that heal, and the above ones cut down on your dps, but they would buff the other three players dps significantly. My dps may be lower, and I am support, but the group will be more survivable. I only did one elite so far, and it was painful. I thought this all up afterwards.

Should I save the 5 plat and not respec? Am I on drugs? Please give me your thoughts on this matter.

Fire, Time, Curse, Heal (with mana back and mana right off the bat) for Elites imo.
