does this trigger Aura of Holy Might? --Falconeye (talk) 20:10, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

I couldn't find the answer, but I wanted to mention that Vow of Piety is a similar case. My guess is it doesn't, because if it was it would be known by now.--Ruine User Ruine Eternelle Ruine Eternelle.jpg Eternelle 20:24, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
I just tested it with both Aura of Holy Might and Meditation but it doesn't work. 81.235.28.9 20:29, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Useful?[edit]

Not seen this in many builds yet; it seems like a much less powerful Ether Renewal, any thoughts? --Summit Axe.png St Lucretia 19:47, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

ER and Arcane Zeal are for spells only, and require a bunch of enchantments, while VoR affects all skills without requirement. So it has a niche.
I mostly agree with you however, that this skill is not exciting at all.
The main issue is that we usually do not want to waste our elite slot on energy management, when there are a bunch of regular skills that can usually do that. We want strong damage, healing, prot or utility for our elite skill.
Exception to that are incredibly powerful energy management like Ether Renewal that gives you easily 12+ energy every two second. Here we have 5/3 energy per second which is not bad, but not crazy.
Adding in there the fact that it is PvE only so reduces your build possibilities.
Adding in there at last strong competition from Zealous Vow, Arcane Zeal, or any other energy management elite skill that will be in the second attribute we will specialize in (and even in primary attributes such as Markman's wager) and that can provide more energy or bonus effect.
And here are my thoughts.
Ideas : PvX Tested build and PvX tested build2
I was also thinking of smiting prayers stuff, with zealot's fire. - - Ruine User Ruine Eternelle Ruine Eternelle.jpg Eternelle 11:56, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Omg forgot one small thing. Arcane Mimicry. This makes it potentially very good. Can use signet of illusions if not primary dervish (or symbols of inspiration if mesmer). Ruine User Ruine Eternelle Ruine Eternelle.jpg Eternelle 19:19, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
