Okay, everyone remembers the effectiveness of mana burn from WC3 right? The demon could nail people and put them out of commission with that hit, they had to nerf it to compensate.

Anyway, there are two mesmer spells that would in exactly the same way, energy burn and energy surge. Double up on those and you can burn 18 energy off anyone in 4 seconds. Of course they are also hit for 162 damage, regardless of armor. Oh yeah, energy surge is also AoE.

So instead of packing a shield, pack a charkam. With 32 energy you have more than a ranger LOL

Pack Hex Breaker (best non-elite spell IMHO), Drain Enchantment (THE IW killer), Empathy (huge advantage against other warriors and rangers) and your usual warrior skills for axe or sword.

That's cool, but why not just go mesmer primary?

If you're going to attack your enemy's magic supply.

Power Leak
Power Spike
Energy Tap
Power Drain

Blam, not only did you deal massive armor ignoring damage but you've effectively reduced ALL their energy to almost nothing.
