Typically, if your only 2 attributes are '''Domination Magic''' and '''Fast Casting''', you run this armor.

Mesmers (particularly [[Spiker (UW)|Spiker]] in UW) sometimes need to use different attributes while keeping the Domination headpiece, so you want to have two additional pieces of armor, correspondent to the two pieces that have the Attunement Runes. For example, your headpiece is Domination, your chestpiece contains the +50hp rune, your Gloves contain +3 fast cast, then craft an additional leg piece and boots. Put an +3 Illusion Magic in one, and +3 Inspiration on the other. As a result, you will be able to have any combination of the superior runes (only dom+fc, dom+fc+ill, dom+fc+insp, or all 4).

If you have '''Illusion Magic''' on your bar '''(TK)''', '''(FBGM Caller)''', '''(Variation of IaU)'''

==== High Health Set ====
 +
Since the spiking armor set has almost no extra health and a lot of health penalty, you will gain great benefit from having a high HP set to swap to. Only use this when necessary to survive.
 +
*5x Survivor Insignia

*Rune of Superior Vigor
 +
*4x Rune of Vitae

+
*5x Blessed Insignia
 +
*Rune of Superior Fast Casting
 +
*Rune of Superior Vigor

*2x Rune of Vitae

[[LT]] requires '''three''' headpieces: +1+3 Inspiration for Lab, Escort and Vale pop, +1+3 Domination for the top group in Vale quest, +1+3 Illusion for UWG.

Mesmers in speedclears typically take the role of a spiker using Domination Magic as their primary attribute, but there are some notable exceptions such as LT and T4 in Underworld.

Armor Sets

Spiking Set

  • 5x Radiant Insignia
  • +1 Domination Magic headpiece
  • Rune of Superior Domination Magic
  • Rune of Superior Fast Casting
  • Rune of Superior Vigor
  • 2x Rune of Attunement

Normal armor.png

Mesmers (particularly Spiker in UW) sometimes need to use different attributes while keeping the Domination headpiece, so you want to have two additional pieces of armor, correspondent to the two pieces that have the Attunement Runes. For example, your headpiece is Domination, your chestpiece contains the +50hp rune, your Gloves contain +3 fast cast, then craft an additional leg piece and boots. Put an +3 Illusion Magic in one, and +3 Inspiration on the other. As a result, you will be able to have any combination of the superior runes (only dom+fc, dom+fc+ill, dom+fc+insp, or all 4).

High Health Set

Since the spiking armor set has almost no extra health and a lot of health penalty, you will gain great benefit from having a high HP set to swap to. Only use this when necessary to survive.

  • 5x Survivor Insignia
  • Rune of Superior Vigor
  • 4x Rune of Vitae

LT / Tanking Armor

  • 5x Blessed Insignia
