After debugging all of the
CharacterUsedSkill events today, I stumbled upon a bug or typo for the
CharacterUsedSkill event:
So while the parameter name states it's the
_SkillType:
CharacterUsedSkill((CHARACTERGUID)_Character, (STRING)_Skill, (STRING)_SkillType)
is actually the
_SkillElement, like in the
SkillCast event.
I tested this by casting
Ground Smash while tracing all the various skill events:

As you can see here, it returns "Warrior" instead of "cone".
Testing this with Inspire returned the following:
[LLMIME:Debug:CharacterUsedSkillAtPosition] [Squiggly Pete] cast skill [Shout_InspireStart(shout)] from position [8,0,9] to target position [8,0,9].
[LLMIME:Debug:CharacterUsedSkill] [Squiggly Pete] cast skill [Shout_InspireStart()].
[LLMIME:Debug:SkillCast] [Squiggly Pete] cast skill [Shout_InspireStart] with element []
Since Inspire is a "Special" type, the element is blank, and matches up with SkillCast's value (blank).
Being that this is most likely a typo, swapping the parameter name from
_SkillType to
_SkillElement may be a good idea to avoid future confusion (I myself tried to use the parameter to check for a shout skill at one point).
