I am a W/E that just captured the elite skill mist form from "Eidolon" the monster you kill to infuse your items against Mursaat attacks.

For those who don't remember what mist form does,
"For 8-18 seconds, you cannot take or deal damage from attacks"

I was wondering if a Mo/E could use this combo effectively in PvP and make himself invurnerable to attacks while he is healing.

Any thoughts? Anyone tried this?

As far as I know, spells don't count as attacks, so you're screwed there. It would, however protect you from warriors and rangers. With its duration at 18s and recharge of 30, you're left with 12s. downtime, which isn't too bad. But then again, most of the damage comes from spells.

We were planning on using this in our guild, but nerf after nerf rendered it eventually scrap.
It used to read:
For 8-18 seconds, target ally cannot take or deal damage from attacks"
and there was another spell, that:
"for 8-18 seconds, you cannot take or deal damage from spells"

ah, good times.
I wish Anet could think of a differnet way to nerf things apart from removing all value :S.

Ok? So it now leaves you open to physical attacks, but you just can't use offensive spells right? If I understand that correctly... then it's time to open up with some healing while standing in that guy's inferno. =P

They removed the spell immunity one, and so its not usuable any more. If you want immunity from something, get immunity from spells. In this day and age of spike air eles you might find yourself giving obsidian flesh a hug.

Mist form is best used in PvE.

Spell breaker is the monk spell you want to use to make yourself invulnerable to spells (mesmers, necros, eles all use spells, whereas physical attacks are easily countered using protection spells).
