long time ago i missed inspiration magic based weapons because i wanted to play a Me/E with inspiration/firemagic. Now that i bought my mesmer some nice inspiration weapons i just can't find a decent build that doesn't use domination or illusion. There are some energy drainers but thats no good in PvE.

There used to be funny builds like fastcasting flare (i think this is no longer doable with aftercast and changes on elemental attunement)

If somebody knows a good inspiration build please share...

Im also thinking of a signet build using mantra of signets and keystone signet. this should let you recharge your signets pretty often but using only mesmer signets isn't really effective. A little energy draining a little damage and interrupts but i can hardly cast 2 second signets and interrupt at the same time. Maybe there are some good combos with a secondary class.
You could also use 7 signets in the build and keep 4 enchantments up, because you need no energy. But there is no way you can replace a monk as a bonder....
I would be happy if someone has a good idea regarding a signet build.

There are no good inspiration centered builds. There's also no need for inspiration energy management anymore, since the glyph of lesser energy buff.

If you want to forgo glyph in favor of going Me/Mo for fast res chant, the staff would help your 2 or so emanagement spells, but other than that the weapon is probably useless, since you'd still be better off with a dom weapon.

well i now use mark of rodgort with flare and fireball and inspiration for energy leeching and healing. (about 10 fastcasting) At least the constant burnign is funny^^

better than nothing

Inspiration magic used to be a good form of energy denial. Used to.

im sorry to say but inspiration has very few useful skills... the main ones that come to my mind in being slightly useful are

Spirit Shackles
Signet of Humility
Power Leech
Spirit of Failure

You are quite wrong about the inspiration build aspect. Think synergy, if you pvp what so ever you will have a clue to what I am hinting toward.. if not, disregard this message entirely.

No! No more Me/E!

Save the mesmer! Say no to Flare!

I guess your best bet would be to have a whole bunch of Signets, [skill=text]Keystone Signet[/skill] and [skill=text]Symbolic Posture[/skill] to use right before Keystone.

Me/P.

I use that exclusively at Abbadon. Matched up with Mantra of Inscriptions, Remedy Signet, and Cautery Signet (E), I am able to clear all of the dazing effects. Makes that mission a snap.

i know this is the easiest way to get laughed out of any GW related forum, but for offensive signets... you cant beat the smite line.
