Signet of Illusions

So i was looking throught Wiki to find a mes skill, and i saw this beauty.

Signet of Illusions: Elite Signet. Your next 1...3 Spells use your Illusion attribute instead of its normal attribute

Meaning if you are running a mes that uses some skills from another proff, no need to investe in that attribute. Since it has a casting time of 2, R of 5, and no time limit to the spells(like sig of stamina or str) its great.

Take a Me/E with 16 illusion magic, and the rest in fast casting.
Take some nice fire skills, plus illusion skills with sig of illusions and bam, your doing almost max dmg possible with ur ele spells and ur illusion spells, plus really fast casting.

EDIT: ROFLMAO!! Also this skill affects title skills. With 16 illusion magic u get max title track skills. So a mes with save yourselves, with 16 illusion XD! Save Yourselves is a shout, not a spell.

And this horse has been beaten already. I think there's 3 other Sig of Illusion threads floating around, most of them capitalizing on making use of high leveld Ebon Vanguard Assassins.

Actually signet of illusions can get you _higher_ then max rank. The way it works is that the max rank is always equal to 15 illusion (an attribute level of 15 is what all scaling properties of skills are based on) so that with r16 illusion you can get the max + 1 level. 15 is not max rank, it is the standardised balance rank.

Max ranks is 20 or so.

Fire magic is bad anywhere a mesmer should do a mesmers job and make sure the party doesn't get hit as often. ...which can be accomplished by sending two (arcane echo) or three (arcane echo + auspicious incantation to get echo from another team member) lvl 21 assassins to spike that annoying fire elementalist...
