So what do you guys think of the elite spell Crippling anguish?

It depends on what you are using it for. For PvE it is pretty bad. It is a single target hex, and when mobs can be around 10 enemies, it is mostly a waste.

In PvP, it is alright for snaring and pressure, but only in formats where 1v1s and splits are good, RA, FA, GvG, some AB. Overall, it might be worth experimenting if you are interested, but in my opinion, it isn't really that good.

What Elite skill would you recomend for hexing health degen?

I would suggest not using any hex degeneration at all. Illusion of Pain is non-elite and can go on an Assassin's Promise bar. Degeneration isn't something desirable in PvE.

Well what would you recomend for me? As a mesmer i am not interested in having an interupting build. But, i can't think of anything all that good.

Mesmers have a lot of armor-ignoring damage, if you want to blow things up you should build a bar around an elite skill like Energy Burn or Ineptitude.

What would you guys recomend as far as damage dealing and working into a build that would be most effective, Ineptitude or Energy Surge?

Guillotine Princess · Jun 04, 2012, 03:08 AM // 03:08

Ineptitude would be my choice.

Skyy High · Jun 04, 2012, 01:41 PM // 13:41

Ineptitude seems to be the popular choice. Energy Surge is easier to use though.
