I like this idea much better. Panic is in itself quite useless, unless you devote your entire build to nrg denial. Panic combined with Sig of Weariness though.. throw in Ether Lord.. it really does sounds scary. You can basically cast Panic and use a plethora of nrg denial skills to bring your enemy's nrg down, AS WELL AS YOURS, and then once u hit an nrg low u can cast Ether Lord and Energy Tap to replenish yourself.

Build should probably include:

Panic
Mantra of Inscriptions
Mantra of Signets
Signet of Weariness
Energy Burn/Spirit Schackles
Ether Lord
Energy Tap

I personally think Mind Wrack isn't going to be useful at all. Impo Mind Wrack is only worthwhile for an anti-melee/rangers build- they have so little nrg u can drain them dry easily. As always, with mesmers, you have to choose whether you are going to go anti-caster or anti-fighter.

ether lord drops you to 0... it maxes out at 3 pips i think, so that's 2.3 e/s, in slightly more than 2 seconds you have enough for power leak or energy tap... yeah, that looks like it works. gosh, if you keep people at -2 regen with panic and lord, and get them to hit 0, spamming mind wrack would rock your socks...

i'd take out mantra of signets (too expensive) for mind wrack as a cover and ftw if you can get them stalled at 0.

Build:

1. Panic (Elite)
2. Mind Wrack
3. Drain Enchant
4. Power Drain
5. Energy Tap
6. Spirit of Failure
7. Chaneling (Or another energy gaining spell)
8. Res

How about, instead of all those "OMG I NEED ENERGY" skills in their you instead drop your Inspiration attributes into Blood. Offering of Blood. If you just need enchantment removal as well take Strip Enchantment and/or Rend Enchantments.
