Mesmer Class

Pirates are experts in indirect damage and subtle magic. Mesmers are best suited in preventing their opponent from achieving their goals, whether that be to heal, cast spells, or attack. In order to do this they make use of a multitude of spells, hexes and enchantments. Illusion skills make the opponent suffer hallucinations that lower their resolve. Domination skills alter some aspect of the opponent making them receive damage as a consequence of carrying out a common action, such as attacking or casting a spell. Inspiration skills allow the Mesmer to steal energy from their opponents, preventing spellcasting professions from being as effective. The patron goddess of mesmers is Lyssa.

The Primary Mesmer's base armor provides low protection, +10 Energy and +2 Energy Recovery. A starting Primary Mesmer can expect to have 30 Maximum Energy and 4 Energy Recovery.
