Usage Notes
Warning: The Description is wrong, because it can become any elite skill and not just an elite spell.

Note that other ally must be alive and in range.

Some elements to ponder when trying to use this skill:
 * It is obviously best to use as part of a team and not on an indivdual basis. Randomly casting this spell on allies is probably the worst way to use this skill.
 * Find out what other team members are using and find out which elite would best serve the team as a whole.
 * Elites that are not linked to any attribute (such as Grenth's Balance or Glyph of Energy) are going to be the most effective. Still, the caster can attune his/her secondary profession attributes to the elite skill's linked attribute for the duration of the mission or quest to make effective use of an elite skill. For example, temporarily increasing Protection Prayers of a Me/Mo to take advantage of a teammate's Mark of Protection.
 * Be mindful of skill cost and recharge time. A spell with a recharge time of more then 15 seconds will probably only be used once for the duration of Arcane Mimicry.
