Question: Does Blessed signet work on Vigorous Spirit ?

I use Vigorous spirit quite a bit in PvP, I always have it running on the whole team, since it is so cheap. I start putting it up as soon as the gates open.

I also use it for an extra heal - with the divine favor Bonus of 44. If a member is in trouble I hit 1,2,3 which is Orison, Word of Healing, Vigorous spirit = 76+45+76+94+44+44=378 instant heal in a few secs. If he is under focus fire I follow up with Healing seed.

Anyway, since Vigorous spirit is an enchantment and I usually have 8 up, will Blessed Signet give me 3 Mana for each of them, so a total of 8x3 -1 (cap is 23) =23 mana ?.

Skill description:

For each enchantment you are maintaining you gain 3 energy, maximum 23 (14 att).
Casting cost 0
Casting time 1
Recharge Time 20

Brutal recharge time, but still less than Glyph of Lesser Energy (30).

If this is the case I might consider it! Please advise!

Is Vigorous Spirit an enchantment that you need to maintain? No, it's not. Blessed Signet only works on maintained enchantments.

A maintained enchantment is any enchantment that costs energy regeneration in order to maintain but otherwise have no set duration. Live Vicariously, in Healing Prayers, is a maintained enchantment.

You are Superman!

Hit the refresh button and there was the answer. Thank you for answering that with lightining speed and accuracy! You probably went for a few spins around the globe before you answered!

I have looked at so many builds in the forum and on my GW calculator - always hoping to find a treasure...but out of luck this time around!
Looks like Blessed Signet isn't the greatest skill to put on your skillbar. With Max Divine Favor and Peace and Harmony +5 enchantments. You still would only gain 15 mana every 20 seconds at max attribute level, unless you had a skill (which I can't think of right now), that instantly recharges your signets - think there is one in the Mesmer line (keystone signet).Anyway, that is just plain sucky.

Thanks Rex!

Not that quick a response. I had to save some villagers from a volcano, complete a mission in deep space, and prune some threads first, so I think my response time was off a bit...

Oh well, Post, Post, and Away!
