Mesmers have four attributes all of which revolve around their command and control of magic and of others. Their primary attribute is Fast Casting and the other three are Domination Magic, Illusion Magic, and Inspiration Magic. Fast Casting is linked to a single skill while the others have full skill lines. Having only three attribute lines means that the skill lines of a Mesmer are larger in comparison to other professions so there's a lot more diversity in terms of the skills to pick from even though they have no more actual skills than anyone else.
