If you use conjure phantasm on an enemy then use echo and use phantasm again will the enemy suffer health degen of -10 or will it just stay at -5?

Hexes don't stack with themselves, regardless of the source. (Neither do enchantments or conditions, for that matter.) Casting Conjure Phantasm on someone who's already Phantasmed, whether it's from a second mesmer or your own Echo'ed Phantasm, will just reset the duration.

If you want to make someone degen faster, try stacking Conjure Phantasm with Phantom Pain.

Life Siphon and Transfer last a lot longer than that at 12 Blood.

Anyway, degen is capped at 10 arrows, so there's not much point stacking that many degen hexes.

There is if hexed person gets lots of health regeneration which can eliminate health degeneration completely. However, I haven't tested this so don't know if -10 deg cap means 10 deg arrows at that time or something else.

It caps regen and degen arrows after calculating up everything. so -20+7=-13, which gets capped at -10.

True, enough stacked degens will totally nullify a Healing Breeze. But it's a lot more efficient to just carry enchantment removal...

There is more health regeneration skills than just healing breeze and they are not enchantments.

Life Siphon, Life Transfer, Well of Blood, Well of Power, Melandru's Resilience, Troll Unguent, "I Will Avenge You!" and "I Will Survive!"

These are immune against enchantment removers.
