You don't see Flame Legion Chaots anymore.
You don’t really see any charr mesmers anymore- only one I can think of off the top of my head is in the PS. I’d mark the change up to the difference in approaching NPC professions- whereas in GW1 every sizable enemy faction had every profession in that campaign (albeit sometimes with constructs filling certain roles), GW2, which doesn’t balance for enemy cooperation, doesn’t feel the same pressure to make one faction cover every profession. It makes the gameplay a lot less interesting, but lorewise it also lets the groups reflect their inclinations and distastes- and for charr, Flame Legion included, that latter category would probably include mesmerism.

Nothing says that chaots were Flame Legion. Keep in mind that the charr we encountered in GW1 were of all four legions but no clear indication of which. In GW2, the only legion that has kept the old GW1 naming style is Flame Legion – because they’re old fashion, more or less.
Mesmers are most commonly seen in the Ash Legion, but rare all together.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
