Guild Wars 2

As the title says, adding torment to scepter AA on mesmer is a really BAD idea.

Since torment is one of the strongest conditions in the game (if not the strongest one), adding it to an AA that also clones can apply is just broken. Not only because it will be stupidly strong 1v1 (it already was before this buff) but because its completely passive and unskilled. You don’t need to do anything else actually and enemies will have to dodge even AA. You dont even need to shatter actually (except distortion).

It’ll make condi mesmer stupidly broken and easy to play, that everyone will just reroll mesmer and will beat anything 1v1 in a matter of days.

Scepter AA needs some love ofc, but not torment please.

Dont let it happen.

Leave it on the second attack, replace it with confusion on the first swing.

More pu mesmers more

You guys are over-reacting. This build will still kill opponents too slowly. It will remain a WvW roaming class. The closest comparison is P/D thief. They are great for roaming, but are too slow to kill to ever be useful in most PvP matches.

Nothing in game will changed. Just condie PU mesmers will few stronger at 1×1

Mooorree! PU Mesmers FTW!

ive had to say this to many times now, not useful for pvp matches? so lets just make it alot stronger for something its already strong at, logic? there is none

Whilst I agree this change would pretty much be a massive disaster for the game….it has happened now. The changes are locked in. It is probably too late for any changes.

So it is time to get used to it.

Yes it is horrendously bad for the game, especially as the spec will be easy to play. But that is the reality so people have to decide whether to quit or to keep playing.

Some will surely quit over it. Time will tell.
