Wow, when did arenanet add this skill to the game?? I have never seen it on a players bar or any type of enemy use it in either pve or pvp.William Wallace 01:51, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Decrease the recharge to about 15 and then it'd be worth elite. By the way, I like how the guy above William Wallace tried to make himself look cool by agreeing to yourself... KrelusDerian 03:42, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Decrease the recharge to 15 AND decrease the energy cost to 1 and it would be worth an elite. Psychiatric Consultant 19:11, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Better for PvE since update. All that's needed is a return it to its original stats and it will be worth its elite status again. --Don Knowall 18:56, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

Elite for a duplicate with faster cast time and maybe a couple more points of energy only after attribute level 14 (Your target has to actually have energy to Drain it)? Just Arcane Echo if you want to spam Energy denial and save your elite for Arcane Languor. Or Mantra of Recovery(For even more rapid Echo Tap denial, plus any other spells that would benefit, like Ether Lord, Feedback, or Spirit of Failure), something that's actually useful and not just a duplicate. This is one of the worst elites. Ever. Zyph Skerry 18:41, 2 June 2008 (UTC)


 * With the multiplier at three, this is now much better. With a high attribute, you can almost fill a reasonable Mesmer energy bar with 5 energy.  There are still better Mesmer elites.  Non-elite Inspiration Magic spells usually provide good energy management. Zyph Skerry 22:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

It's not one of the worst elites. This elite has the potential to outshine its non-elite cousin with a bit more skill balancing, there are some elites that work better for secondary professions than their primaries, some non-elites in different professions that can have a greater effect than elites in others (what I wouldn't give for Panic to get the effects of Maelstrom and become an elite version of Cry of Frustration). Perhaps a thread should be started about what the worst elite skills are if only for Later interest. --Don Knowall 18:27, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

A well needed needed buff - I may consider using this now.  Firoas.  11:18, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The Elite Inspiration Mantra's for energy management will now get decent competition from this skill in PvE. So far, so good. --Don Knowall 21:24, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

yer not bad now^^ *thinks of A/Me Assacasters* 78.20.153.111 12:54, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

This looks... good now :) Koen 18:33, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

This is actually pretty good now with the big mesmer update several months ago since fast casting can reduce the recharge to something respectable now. Pjwned 00:08, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
