Mesmers need Hammers!
Well, that’d be quite OP in pvp.
also, what Mesmers really need is a new MH weapon that doesn’t suck cough scepter.What I really think is that the specialization for mesmers wil either give them MH pistol “sloves everything IMO” or changes the existing skills for some weapons.
Mesmers are already pretty good at cc and have tons of dazes and almost every weapon have a cc
it’s funny because mes was supposed to be control role , but ele , war , engi
and thief has far more cc than mes could use(all cc mes have are with long cd) . A heavy interrupt CI build requires daze mantra. It’s sad to see after 2 years people still like to spread rumors about mes.
in pve mesmer is better, it takes nothing for a mesmer to remove all 5 stacks of defiance.
3 clones along with mantra and maybe signet if you really want to spec for cc, not to mention the 1 cc you get from weapons “use sword off hand and it’ll have like only 10 secs cd”
Also, please tell me where I went wrong and “spread rumors about mes”

“it takes nothing "just lol , are u talking about thief? can u read the skill cd , and do u even know that diversion requires some placement of illusion to make it work as 3 times of cc . And such thing is just not happening in most pve dungeons and fractal fight . (all your illusions and a skill slot for mantra so mesmers finally have same amount of cc skills as ele but still less than war , engi and thief . )
Daze mantra is great in pve for defiance removal , vulnerability stack and interrupting some mobs skills in certain situation.So yeah if u want to play something heavy cc on mesmer u have to use mantra because your weapon skills aren’t enough.
about offhand sword ,its 12s cd , 10s if traited .But its just slow and in many situation unreliable. Also with it mes still have less cc than war , thief and engi from weapon set .Its just a pure fact . Personally i never saw ppl complain about cc mesmers do in pvp .
Most are about engi and war ,thief comes second.

Back to the topic , mesmers have a lot of traits about interruption but anyone wants to play a heavily cc mesmer ,their builds are almost locked with mantra of distraction since mesmer weapon sets don’t have enough cc covering the loss of damage or survival ablilities from picking up those cc traits. That’s the reason pvp mesmer players want a new weapon set with reliable cc and reasonable cd .Don’t need to be engi level , it certainly should be more than ele and wars’.

I never said they were the best at cc because their CC’s are mostly dazes which is no where near Engi knockbacks are warrior’s stuns.
I can argue with thieves because the best they can do is their elite, if they wanted to use the pistol for cc’s they’ll lose a lot of initiative for no damage. other sword cc’s I find them not really that good and it’s better to spec for something else.
The only classes I find better than mesmer at cc in pvp are Engi, Warr and Fearmancers.
mesmers are good at cc “not op, that’s why no one complains”
My point was that a clone that does passive CC is OP..
That spirit hammer for guards is powerful, imagine if mesmers can have 2-3 of those up and they does CC every 6-8 seconds!
I think all passive CC should be removed from the game “destroying turrets, ranger pets… etc”
But I agree that mesmers should at least be 2nd best class at cc’s since they have a lot of traits for cc.
NO, mesmers need longbow!
