This skill is too conditional imo. For 12 seconds, target foe and all nearby foes suffer -2 Energy degeneration and take 10...68...82 damage whenever they cast a Spell or use a Signet. Now much better for all mesmerizing mesmerz on teh internetS. ;\ 87.189.203.100 20:54, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

This is epic mesmer denial. Ojamo 01:37, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

From the name, and the condition warriors and paragons will have 0 energy regen from this alone, this skill should give the target adrenalen IMO. Barkingllama 06:18, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Who would use this on para or war anyway?

Halving a caster's energy regeneration is conditional? o_O To me, the damage is just a reason to justify keeping this at 25 energy. No one will ever use this for the damage in PvP. 72.81.247.139 02:20, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Besides, using this with Auspicious Incantation will neutralize the huge energy cost. The added recharge time won't hurt this skill much if you cover it, as it recharges in 17 seconds and lasts 19 seconds at rank 14, so the energy cost isn't really that much of a problem in this case.

I figured the damage was so that the skill also worked against signet builds, or that a person with just a signet or two couldn't fall back on them to counter (ignore) the degen without having a cost for that, too. --Star Weaver 14:46, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Thats the inverse, I think, of this spells usefulness. They wanted casters to feel burdened by the lack of energy, and some casters fall back on signets when energy gets tough (monks, mesmers, and necros especially). After that, they take damage which is plenty of reason to Panic. FleshAndFaith 01:24, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Wow, that's actually a really good description of why this skill is as it is XD Euphoracle 21:49, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
