That's the issue.
It might be good - but it's not worth it.
So the good issue that can not be achieved with PvE only skills - despite it being nice - is obsolete. Hence why I strongly suggest using 3 PvE only skills.

Uh...CoF is not obsolete. I still use it and I dont see any other PvE skills that has AoE interrupt.

[Power drain] anyone?

So there aren't many e-management options among PvE skills. The point was that ... you kinda don't need them.
Once again - it's not bad - just obsolete. Mesmers DO need e-management skills (unless you are a N/Me) and having just 1 Power Drain to gain some energy back is often not enough. E-management skills are not obsolete, many of us still use [[Auspicious Incantation] for example.

I never said it would be a PvP skill.
It would be a PvE only skill - foes would still die in 3ish secs - it's just that this time they would die without having any energy.
It wouldn't make the slightest difference - it would just be e-denial "balanced" for PvE mobs.

Ohh and your bolded part is important.
Once again - that is why 3 PvE only skills are good. The PvE-only skills are set and I dont see ANet creating more PvE-only skills for us, so there is no superpowered AoE energy draining PvE-only skills that is super effective in PvE. Like I said, they may convert some existing skills to work differently in PvE though but I dont think they would create new PvE-only skills for that.

I don't think my question was answered and I think this thread turned into a mesmer debate DX
Now I shall ask again:
What hero team builds can a mesmer primary synergize with OTHER than sabway(Which isn't synergy at all because you don't support each other)
