*Credit to Jayson Rayne for showing me this build on his Mesmer, this build is stuffed somewhere @ Gwonline.net in the Mesmer section, but i thought id share it here, Necro Style*

This build is fully offensive, dont forget to keep with the backline casters otherwise your gonna have to kite as there are no self-heals with this build.

Ok the basic premise is to tear your way through your skill bar and cause all kinds of insane dmg to enemies and not have to wait for soul reaping returns. Here we go:

N/Me
Curses = 16 (13 +3 +1)
Inspiration = 11.
Soul Reaping = 9 (6 + 3)

Auspicious Incantation (buy from K-Centre)
Archane Echo
SS {Elite}
Recklass Haste
Descerate Enchantments
Defile Enchantments (same spell, one from factions)
Ether Lord/energy tap/Whatever Inspiration spell you like
Rez...always bring rez.

Warriors engage target (please tell me your warriors are first in lol) ok now you start the pain machine! Archane Echo first, Then SS, then AI, then use the Echo'ed SS! youll see an instant nrg return almost topping up your nrg, Cast recklass, then SS, then the Defile/Descrate, maybe even another SS, W/E recharges throw it on to the enemy...obviously your Tabbing around for your next target, not recasting on the same dude... Smile

I use 2 20/20% items. for a totally of 42nrg. with AI you get a huge energy return...so you can keep casting...the 20/20 wand and 20/20 offhand are @ Vasburg Armory and Levianthan Pits...well worth the money with this build...

with all the crazy casting your doing, youll be at 0 nrg soon, for huge dividends tho, with your last points cast ether lord on a enemy monk lol, or just use energy tap...

The recharge time on AI and Echo shouldnt hinder you too much, but long battles where enemy Melee or casters break warrior aggro can be tough as your main offensive will be spent...and youll be hard up for heals. but with a good group this a great hexspike.
