Heya, I'd like to bring up the three skills called Inspired Hex, Inspired Enchantment and Revealed Hex. These mesmer skills remove a Hex from an ally or an Enchantment from an enemy, and then the removed skill will be replaced with Inspired Hex/-Enchantment/Revealed Hex. However, I dont own factions (and am a frequent user of the skill Inspired Hex), it seems to me these skills have gone pretty useless in PVP.
Let's say, I'd remove a Hex from one of my mates using Inspired Hex. The skill was 'Binding Chains', a Ritualist spell that'll make my mate move 90% slower and can't do attacks anymore. So, after I have removed the Hex with Inspired Hex, Inspired Hex is going to be replaced with Binding Chains, so that I can use the skill for 20 seconds. However, now I get a distorted picture, and whenever I press the skill, it just does nothing.
I think this should be changed into this:
-You can get the Factions (or otherwise Prophecies) skill to work properly
OR
-Inspired Hex/-Enchantment/Revealed Hex just removes the Hex of Factions (or otherwise Prophecies) without the 20 second replacement, with only the cooldown of 10 seconds.

There is a thread about this already, and I think the point was that Inspired is replaced with the hex/enchantment, but nowhere in the description it says that you are able to use it, and most of the time you don't have the attributes to make the skill that useful anyways sooo...

If Inspired wasn't replaced for Prophecies-only chara, and only with 10 second cooldown as you suggested, it would be unbalanced. Prophecies char would be able to remove 3 hexes/enchants in the time a merged ch1+ch2 char would remove 1, as long as the removed hexes/enchants are ch2 content.

edit: Inspired Hex (and similar) not workin as intended.

But in my own opinion, yes, Inspireds should be able to copy and use Factions and other chapter skills, it's hardly a 'way around getting Factions without paying', it's just a skill you can use for 20 seconds, for crying out loud.
