Spellweaving is a PvM skill. It's a "support skill", to support your other skills. Also, it's better if you do it with a LOT of other Spellweavers.

Don't suggest it, personally. But, it's fun.

A group of 6 spellweavers + simultanius arcane level 6 essence of wind or wild fires can be fun at level 1 champ spawns (maybe even level 2).

Note: only a few pentagrams work to get level 6, prism of light being one of them.

Notice he said level 1. It's not really efficient. Fun, but not efficient.

Think of spellweaving as a group PVM skill. The power of spellweaving is only really apparent with more than 1 level of arcane focus. To get a larger arcane level, you need a lot more people, like a guild of spellweavers.

If you can get a bunch of weavers together, they can do wonders for bringing down some of the larger bosses or cleaning out an area. In fact, a ton of wildfires in a champ area would easily brutalize everything in it.

Spellweaving has a "few" spells that can be useful in pvp (Gift of life/renewal, attunement, nature's furies + other summons, immolate weapon etc etc) but its primary use is for group pvm.

Also for strictly getting level up, pets with spellweaving also work if they are within the right skill range. (+20 or -20). Holy Squirrels and Reptalons should do. The squirrels would probably not do well at a spawn though but at least could use one to get an extra arcane level if say, you're 2 people. 2 people + 2 squirrels = level 4 then stable squirrels after. (need high karma and chiv to have one though)

Depends on what you're planning to use it for. Group of people mass bombarding an area = sweet. Single person trying to take down the bad guys/pk's, not so much.

Get yourself a static group, as in a group of 5 or 6 that does stuff regularly. Spellweaving can fit on ANY build, since it's a stand alone skill. Even on tamers, it helps heal your pets. If you do that, in something like Gaunt, you might get a kick.
