Guild Wars 2

Not sure if it’s intentional, or a glitch, but it’s pretty amazing with a sword combo.
I’ve been using my skills in this order: Illusionary Leap> The Prestige> Swap> Mirror Image > Blurred Frenzy > Shatter > dodge back > Decoy >Disengage >repeat as needed.

Any experience with this?

EDIT: Forgot to mention that you retain stealth throughout all the abilities used, assuming you keep within the three second timer.

Yup I think it works that way. You will stay stealthed as long as you don’t do direct damage yourself. You can Decoy/Mass Inv/Veil and summon any illusions you want and still be in stealth.

And I love that combo. It easily annihilates a group of people when they are stacked together. Add on Sigil of Fire and have 5th Rune of Balthazar, and you’ll have 3 blasts of fire and dead people around you. It is a beautiful and amazing sight.

That’s awesome. I’ve actually been looking for a use for the runes of Balthazar on a mesmer. And now I realize that it also justifies the extreme amount of condition damage you have to spec in for a shatter build. This is going to make for some great theory crafting potential.

Update: Tried it in sPvP. kitten’s amazing with the runes and sigil added to it. Took on a a GS mesmer and a GS guardian, both rezzing and coming back when they died, and continuing the fight a good 3 rounds without me dying once. The constant burning damage really adds to Chaos Storm from the staff in my off hand. The burst and pressure from sustained DoTs is great. Recommend anyone reading this tries it.
